panda_venom's The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker Texture Pack

panda_venom’s pack for the European version of The Wind Waker keeps things simple and close to the original art. It uses little memory, which makes it a good fit for low-end PCs and handhelds such as the Steam Deck.

The textures were upscaled in chaiNNer, mainly with the 4xHDCube4 model, then finished in GIMP and XnConvert, starting from a dump made with Venomalia’s texture extraction tool. The pack is about 95% complete.

How to set it up

1. In Dolphin, open File > Open User Folder, then go into Load/Textures/.
2. Extract the download there, so you end up with a Load/Textures/GZL/ folder.
3. Open Graphics > Advanced and tick Load Custom Textures. Ticking Prefetch Custom Textures too stops stutter, if you have the RAM for it.
