The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild HD Textures v1.0

Thank you for being a Patron. A lot of work has gone into completing this project, so your support is appreciated.

To use the HD Texture Pack, you will need your game file, the game update file (1.6.0), your product keys (prod.keys), and Switch firmware. DLC files are optional but recommended. You will also need a custom build of Ryujinx, which is available on Github with the provided link. If you already have Ryujinx set up on your computer, you can skip steps 4-5. You can skip steps 7-9 if you already have Breath of the Wild 1.6.0 installed in Ryujinx.

Steps to install:

1) Download the texture pack from your hdpacks.com account. (last update: January 25, 2023).

2) Download the custom Ryujinx build from Github (https://github.com/HDPacks/Ryujinx-8GB/releases/download/v1.0.0/Ryujinx8GB_v1.0.0.rar).

2) Extract the Ryujinx rar file anywhere on your computer. No installation required.

4) Open Ryujinx and select File -> Open Ryujinx Folder. Place your prod.keys file in the system folder.

5) Select Tools -> Install Firmware and select the location of your firmware.

6) If you already have Ryujinx installed, all of your current settings will be used by default. Please make sure that you have the "Use alternative memory layout" option checked under Options -> Settings -> System.

7) Open Ryujinx and select Options -> Settings -> Add game directory and add the path to your Breath of the Wild game file.

8) Right click the game title and select Manage Title Updates and add the update file for 1.6.0.

9) Optionally, right click the game title and select Manage DLC and add your DLC files.

10) Right click the game title and select Open Mods Directory. Extract the HDTextures folder from the RAR file into the mod folder. The path should look something like this: C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Ryujinx\mods\contents\01007EF00011E000\HDTextures.

You can now play The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild with HD textures!

HD Texture Pack v1.0 Release Notes:

-Every texture in the game has been upscaled, as well as fonts, inventory icons, and various other details.

-At the time of writing, v1.0 has been tested through the Four Divine Beasts and ending boss fight, as well as some other areas. There should (hopefully) be no major bugs or crashes.

-Load times may take a while because of the large textures. You can press tab during the loading screen to unlock your framerate, which may speed up the load time. Make sure to press tab after you've loaded the game because of game pacing and syncing.

If you encounter any bugs or crashes, report them to admin@hdpacks.com, along with the steps to recreate the bug, log files, and any additional information that you can provide.

Future release objectives:

-To ensure that every texture is perfect. All of the textures are completed and look great, however there is always room for improvement.

-To upscale the movie files.

-To listen to Patron feedback and to work on every request.
