DESCRIPTION
I've decided to retexture Twilight Princess GC! I wanted to keep the original textures, but convert them into HD format as much as possible, and also add a little Skyward Sword style. Twilight Princess was suppose to aim towards a dark look+feel, but failed miserably by the power of blurry/ugly textures. The game also lacks lighting effects and shadow effects, so I'm working on getting shader addons(ReShade, SweetFX, etc.) to become compatible with the game. I'm aiming to get SSAO or HBAO, and DoF to work properly. I've seen some people that had success with some effects, but no tutorial. I NEED SOME HELP WITH APPLYING THOSE EFFECTS! I really want to get Twilight Princess polished as much as possible. The textures, that I've done, are looking beautiful, but the lackluster of HBAO, SSAO, and DoF is killing the feel. I know it's possible to get the effects working because I have successfully implemented HBAO and DoF on the Project64 ROMS(Majora's Mask, OoT, and Conker.) So yeah...

SCREENSHOTS! (NEW; MAY 24, 2015)

I will like to release the download of the ALPHA texture pack! Below is the download link. GO CRAZY! The changes to link have not been uploaded, yet. I'll be uploading them, as soon as possible. It will be considered a patch :)

Keep checking this post for any patches.

NOTE
You can customize the settings to your liking. If the game slows down, using SSAO, try turning down the "SSAO Quality" slider or perhaps the "Sample Range" slider. If you are still experiencing an FPS drop, try disabling Anti-Aliasing by setting it to "None" or try using a lower "Internal Resolution." If none of that helps, then you can just use DoF by selecting "DOF" in the "Post-Processing Effect" drop-down menu.

I also want to let everybody know that 90% of the textures, including Link and Epona, and all characters, are completely redrawn by me, digitally. I DID NOT USE ANY GOOGLE IMAGES! I Enlarge the texture with Alien Blow-up, and then trace it. If I am not satisfied with certain Twilight Princess textures, I remake them, completely(making them different, my style.)

If you want the music to be bolder, wouldn't it be better to first start with synth replacement? That way when all that is figured out, you can replace the midis that need to be changed.
That's what I said, at the bottom of page 15, but I won't bother trying unless Tomoya says that he'd like to include it along with everything else.

I would LOVE to include remade/fresher sounding music to the pack, of which matches the art style. God, if you can make it possible, that would be awesome! You'd be part of the crew :)
I finished Zora Link over night; along with some areas in the Water Temple. I added white sparkles to gives the illusion of specular lighting(giving the suite a wet look.) When zoomed to normal camera view, the white sparkles give an amazing effect(an illusion of specular lighting/wet suite, as I've mentioned.) I'll post the download link, shortly, and you can play it yourself. It gives me the chills because how cool the illusion is.

Enjoy the HD Zora Link, along with the specular lighting illusion Big Grin

Hey Tomoya your project is amazing and I can't wait for 100% completion! However, do you think it would be possible to be able to load these textures through Wii homebrew? I would love to use these textures on my Wii.

Awesome! But how will that work? I mean, you have to install those dll files into dolphin to get the textures to look right, so how would that work for Wii Homebrew? Do we need to develop a Wii channel specifically for that task?

I think you use Riivolution. If it's possible to run Twilight Princess upscaled on the Wii U, then it's possible to use Riivolution for my HD project to run on Wii U.

Wouldn't that be the Wii version only though? Besides, your texture pack is meant for the GameCube version, and not the mirrored Wii Version. So how would we make that work? I suppose you could mirror all your textures or rename them to match the Wii textures.

It's possible with riivolution, however, it'll downscale the textures. IDK how to do it though :/
