RetroArch

For hi-res texture packs on Retroarch, you will need to be running the Mupen64Plus core; ParaLLEL does not support them as it doesn't use the GLideN64 video plugin.

1. You will first need to obtain a compatible .HTC texture pack (e.g. from the completed projects section on emutalk).
2. Navigate to your RetroArch installation folder (By default, this is %AppData%RetroArch on Windows)
3. Navigate to .systemMupen64pluscache (create the cache folder if it doesn't exist)
4. Place your texture packs within the cache folder. The texture pack MUST be named 'THE LEGEND OF ZELDA_HIRESTEXTURES.htc'
5. Load the ROM with the Mupen64Plus core selected
6. Finally, enable the option Quick Menu -> Options -> Use High-Res textures and Use High-Res Full Alpha Channel
7. Reload the content
8. You should now have your texture pack active.

Project64

First, make sure you have the 3.0+ build of Project64.

Project64's GLideN64 plugin is needed to use texture packs. Project64 can use precompiled HTC texture packs like the other emulators, but it can also compile HTC texture packs from Rice-format texture packs (large collections of .PNG files). This process can also be used to create HTC texture packs for the other emulators to use.

Launch Project64 and go to Options > Settings > Plugins and set your video/gfx plugin to the GLideN64 option. Hit OK.

Next go to Options > Configure Graphics Plugin > Texture enhancement and make sure the following options are enabled:

• Use Texture Pack
• Use full transparencies
• Save enhanced texture cache to hard disk
• Compress texture cache

Precompiled .HTC Packs

Extract the .HTC to Project64PluginGFXGLideN64cache and make sure its name is THE LEGEND OF ZELDA_HIRESTEXTURES.htc

You should now be able to see the modified texture pack in-game.

Compiling an HTC File from a Rice-format Pack

Extract the GAME NAME FOLDER (i.e. THE LEGEND OF ZELDA) to Project64PluginGFXGLideN64hires_texture

Launch Project64. It may take a while for the GLideN64 cache file to be compiled.

Once Project64 has successfully launched the game with the texture pack in question and the GLideN64 cache file has shown up in Project64PluginGFXGLideN64cache, you can now safely delete the files from Project64PluginGFXGLideN64hires_texture
