And lots of material to work with which also might be interesting for other retexture artists.

Yeah
Yeah for some reason some of the skins don't change even with the textures.
For example
1.When u come out of Young Link's litttle house, u know what hes standing on, that hasnt change
2. With the new HUDS, like the Deku Seed, Bombs pictures being In HI-RES, some havent change like the bow, it shows that its in Hi-res but in the actual game, it hasn't change.
Some Textures do not work.
It says it loads the textures when I start up the game and you can tell that some of the textures (Water,Ground,grass,ect.) do work but when I am in Kokiri Forest the wall textures and the building textures are the same as the orginal...well thats kind of the case for the other places I have been (Deku tree, Lost woods, and Goron City).
By the way the pack is amazing.
Sky and moon textures?
Is there any way to install the sky and moon textures separately from the rest of the update? I like the game the way it is, but the sky and moon textures are so freaking gorgeous. Thanks for the help!
1. The pre-rendered scene
1. The pre-rendered scene was never ingaem. It is possible to do it. but there wont be any prerendered screens until i figured out how to align them to the original.
2. this is a common bug, it has nothing to do with the textures.
Ah ok. Well its no rush, take
Ah ok. Well its no rush, take your time if U can do it ^_^
This is great
Ive been using these Hi-Res Textures for a long time and Im excited that there is a website. But as for the textures, here are some problems I encounterd
1. Some of the textures on screenshots havent changed, for example, once u enter that Hylian Bridge, and your about to enter the Market, its still the old N64 graphics, either it hasnt changed or it wasnt released in the Betas or downloads.
2. When ever I go the the menu screen for items or weapons or maps, the screen gets all messed up and I cant see Link's body, all I see is messed up Hylian Shield and stuff and screen fllickering around and stuff.
Just 2 problems I got that I hope to be fixed but besides that, the pack is wonderful and glad that the website exists. I was begining to thing that no1 would ever come back to Zelda Hi-Res Textures again ^_^
It's not in the game. The
It's not in the game. The render is just a WIP. I'tll be a long time until we will see real hires static background of this game. Especially the panoramas.
One more thing
Forgot it. Doesn't care what plugin I use, the first screen when you enter in Hyrule city never loads. I have no idea why.
Awsome work
Waiting Kakariko. Thanks for your awsome work. Aristotle's plugin doesn't work at all, there are textures missed and some bugs. I finally chose glide napalm 1.1. It works very well, I only have a bug with plants in Hyrule, they look like Cell-shading. I have a recopilation of lots of HD textures and I'm adding your textures because they just look so much better. Tx
I'd like to help
sorry to say that i have no background in this typeof thing but would like to help in progressing this project in any way possable thanks
Keep going
I cant wait to try the full release! And see some new WiP :P
I'm not using the Ddx9
I'm not using the Ddx9 Version, but I'll give glide64 a go!
maybe (but not very likely)
maybe (but not very likely) you're using the wrong rom. I think it's odd, the game loads the textures but does not show them. Are you using the dx9 version of the plugin (which won't work with the textures)? have you tried glide 64 yet? ever had trouble with another (recent) 3d game before?
I'm using the ATI Radeon
I'm using the ATI Radeon Xpress 1250
It's decent.
The plugin plays the game fine, and seems to work okay, but i've saved the textures into the folder and the ROM doesnt seem to use them. Even though all of the needed boxes are checked.
which videocard are you
which videocard are you using? have you tried another plugin?
I'm using the 1964 Emulator
I'm using the 1964 Emulator with the Mudlord ricevideo 6.1.4
I followed all the steps given by you on the wiki.
hm strange, what emulator and
hm strange, what emulator and which particular plugin are you using? Aristotle's Mudlord & Rice Video (the one from this site? Have you tried glide 64?
Help!
I've put all the Alpha and Deku tree/hyrule field updates into the game-name folder in the 'high texture' file, but there's no difference at all! It says it's getting all of the textures in white text at the loading, but this only lasts for a split second.
There's literally no difference, and I've played through the Deku tree before heading out to Hyrule. I'm using the rice video 6.1.4 update plugin.
Any ideas?
They do...but not at this
They do...but not at this speed - I know
Anyway I kinda liked them - the only thing bothering me about the skies is the presence of the sun in the texture. I couldn't switch it out in the rendering programm cause there has to be a light source. Especially in the evening sky which is the one a least like. Could use some work but I have other priorities now.
Sky
Looks amazing, but one things bothering me... The sky at night. Stars don't move, lol.
Wow, I love the new videos.
Wow, I love the new videos. Your textures are really amazing, Take your time on it man, so we get the best results outta you :P

Well this is really great work mode7. I love the detail you put into the water effects.

mode7 - do you think you'd be
mode7 - do you think you'd be able to do a screen capture of the original graphics fly-in sequence as well? I would like to do a split screen of the fly in over the village, showing the old graphics on the left hand, syncd with your revised graphics on the right hand side.
still charming
