    Been playing this, and it’s great! Started right up at 9x resolution, wasn’t too hard to setup a high quality texture pack, and the game is looking sharp at 4k/120 without any issues!

    Things look great, and this launching with features like gyro aim, free cam, and QoL like fast climbing and skipping that damn rupee cutscene is phenomenal.

    Also, man, can’t wait to come back to this in a year or two with a randomizer and whatever other features they can pack in here.

      I’m glad we have high res options but I always immediately set these to 1x res. I ❤️ the jaggies.

        To be fair, at this time the game was still being designed on CRTs (LCDs existed but everything except footprint size was a downgrade - and they still are if you ask me), so the intended way to play the game from the artists perspective is still at 1x on a CRT, which effectively masks pixels edges with the CRTs inherent picture softening.

        Yeah, I love that they so easily provide a “faithful” and “enhanced” version. One button at startup and it runs just like it would on the GameCube, or you can go all out like me!

          Can you toggle between modes, I wonder? I installed a mega high rez texture pack on Ship of Harkinian and toggling between old graphics and high-rez textures was mindblowing hahaha

            You can toggle everything except the texture pack right now, unfortunately. The live reloading is super rad, I’ve had a blast toggling bloom on and off and laughing at how generic the game looks without it.

            I think textures are a fairly new feature, you currently just throw them in an unmentioned folder and it works. But I’ve heard one of the devs is apparently looking into modding support, so hopefully texture packs can be distributed via mods, and easily enabled/disabled there, similar to Majora’s Mask Recomp.

              Noted, thank you! It’s not a big problem if I can’t toggle texture packs. I’m excited to try this! I’ve only played for a couple hours, on the Wii. Twilight Princess is my partner’s favorite Zelda game, though!

                Oh man! First ever playthrough is so exciting, this one is a childhood favourite of mine that I’m enjoying replaying. I hope you have a great time with it!
