There are lots of different texture packs for the same game being created (SUPER MARIO 64 especially). I've decided to link only to the most popular/complete packs.

[PsyMan]

Important notes

Texture packs created for a specific version of a game may not work for other versions of the same game.
(ie: Texture packs created for "Legend of Zelda, The - Ocarina of Time (U) (V1.0) [!]" may not work with "Legend of Zelda, The - Ocarina of Time (U) (V1.1) [!]" and/or "Legend of Zelda, The - Ocarina of Time (E) (V1.0) [!]").

Remember to verify your ROMS and mention their goodN64 name when uploading or asking for a texture pack.

[Federelli]

My textures work in Legend of Zelda 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, E, U and Master Quest.

Only in MQ there are some small changes. And some more textures in the E version such as the language selection screen

[Talas]

How do I insert the High Res Textures into the Roms? I thought I would find the info here, since it says "Tutorials".

[iMartin]

Just place the folder in which all of the textures are in into your emulator's plugin folder. Make sure you're using Rice Video 6.1.0c also.

[chaosjunkie]

I came here looking for a tutorial and there isn't one. I just need to know where to place the plug-in so it works. I put it in the plug-in folder for PJ64 and that didn't do anything. Someone please help.

[Googol]

[chaosjunkie]

Thanks but that was all stuff that I already know. I just need to know how to install the graphics plug-in.

[Googol]

...
You just select a different plugin in the "Settings" menu of PJ64, or the "change plugins" menu of 1964. Select Rice's beta10 from the menu. Then, activate hires textures before you go into the game via the checkbox in Rice's plugin settings. Wha-la! Almost instant hires textures!

[luke49]

how do you install rices plugin 6.10?

[Googol]

LOOK AROUND, won't you? The post JUST ABOVE YOU explains quite a bit, not to mention the TWO STICKIES about this sort of thing.

[zelda fantic]

[Miles Lombardi]

How do I make a texture pack? I've tried, but it won't load in my textures. I'm keeping the correct name, and it's in the correct folder, PAPER MARIO. Do I have to put it in a sub-folder or what?

[Googol]

What have you done so far, in a bit more detail?

[gandalf]

problems with graphics?
try this
http://www.emutalk.net/high-resolution-textures-projects/31619-graphics-problems-read.html

[albinolove]

I cant get the textures to work. I am using 1964 with rice 6.1.0, Hi res textures enabled, my path to the texture file is: Files\1964\plugin\hires_texture\MARIOKAR T64
I don't know what I did wrong.

[Mollymutt]

well, if your folder is spelled like that, it won't load. Remove the space in kart

[albinolove]

spelled it wrong. There is actually no space in it.

[Googol]

Well, some versions of Mario Kart 64 have the internal name of "Mario Kart 64". If that's the case, add the spaces. It should work then.
I believe that also means that the rom is bad, though... try scanning your roms with GoodN64.

[furio]

Only 9 games of all the projects are available to download, or am i missing the links from somewhere else? If so, where are they please?

P.S. I understand that its not an easy task to do, so all am saying is, am i missing some links from else where, thats all.

Seeking more precisely:
-Conker BF
-Goldeneye
-Star Wars Shadows of the Empire
-Any Turok's

Furio

[mots]

is there any possibility of using hi-res textures in Linux?

[Hawq]

Any hints on the best options for altering the textures once you got em in an editor folks? I got bored & tried playing with it earlier but I didnt really know what I was doing to get nice lookin high res stuff. A quick blow up to twice the size & sharpen it didnt yield too much.

[HiReZ92]

I'm urging to start my own re-creation of the outside castle of Super Mario 64 with a Super Mario Sunshine style but the problem is that I don't get the idea of creating different textures. Can someone place an in-depth tutorial on how to make your own textures. I know there is the tutorial with the new rice plugin but I need one that can go into better detail and understanding. I have photoshop to create some PNG's just need to know where to place them.

If anyone could do this it would be a BIIIIIIIGGGGG help for me to start on some textures. I have some really good ideas and all I need is a good explanation.

[Cabbage]

That's what I need too!!! And why are all the links in the beggining in the forum lead me to the Main Page of this site??

[SupermanIsNvius]

Other than Dijipi's pack, are there any other Zelda OOT Packs that are finished?

[DDRPIP]

Dunno if this is the right place for this but...
I'm having problems installing Gimp so I can work better with retexturing
can someone explain how to install it, or give me a full working pack?

[Sri Narayan]

go there:
http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/stable.html
install gtk2 then gimp.
welcome to the gnu world!

[Gox777]

I might make a basic tutorial of how the retexturing procedure goes. (ie: how to dump them, naming them, ect) I could touch on the actual technique when it comes to retexturing, but I'll leave a more in depth guide for the pros to make q:

[DDRPIP]

sweet, I'll be waiting for it, cause I'm new but learn fast..working on Paper Mario right now..
@Sri narayan thanks man helps alot!

[Gox777]

Here's my retexturing tutorial.

Newbies might appreciate that added on the first post.

[DDRPIP]

I also use the dodge and burn tool to recreate any shadows and lighting that were on it originally.

what tool is this? my sister is advanced with photoshop but she's asleep.. anyway I have adobe photoshop CS2, its a little different, but if i knew what tool that is then that would help.. thanks Gox your awesome!

[Gox777]

Here's a pic
http://www.webdesign.org/web/photoshop/photoshop-basics/dodge-tool-video-included.6386.html
and to get the burn tool, right click on the dodge tool icon and you should be able to change it to the burn tool.
Also there's 3 different types of shading/lightening that you can do. Highlights, Midtones, and Shadows. I pretty much just experiment with them til I find which one looks best for whatever I'm doing.
And yea no prob ^^.

[Dark_Ansem]

[DWells55X]

Has anyone done one for Goldeneye yet? I dumped some textures, but everything is just so darn low res I can't even tell what's what. TOo much time it looks like.

[DDRPIP]

well i mean retexturing takes a long time.. also there could be a hell of alot of frames cause you go around alot of buildings, etc. so you have to make a frame for every side, etc..
might take a long time, but if you want go for it...

[macphisto]

Hello. I recently only found out that these mods were being made for Mario 64 after recenltly going back to the game on my PC with an emulator. I downloaded the texture packs but I can't get them to work. I know this question has been asked time and time again, but I've come to be completly stuck after a few hours of trying. My problem may be a stupid one and I may have overlooked something simple, but after installing Rice's graphics plugin and turning it on, I found that it doesn't show the two extra options that are needed to activate the hi res under the texture filter button. Load and dump aren't there. What am I doing wrong. Could someone help? I'd really like to get this game running with these new textures.

Edit - no worries. I sorted it out myself. The game looks superb! Great work!

[ShaolinMilk]

How do you enable high texture? I read everything on this forum and still can't find anything. How do I know if the texture are loaded?

[Agozer]

Check 'Load high resolution textures if available" in Rice's video plugin configuration window. You might have to uncheck "Hide Advanced Settings" first.

[VIRUZ]

...
You just select a different plugin in the "Settings" menu of PJ64, or the "change plugins" menu of 1964. Select Rice's beta10 from the menu. Then, activate hires textures before you go into the game via the checkbox in Rice's plugin settings. Wha-la! Almost instant hires textures!


When I will open the "Settings Menue" I get the error that "Rice`s Plugin" is not avalible and I used both emus 1964 AND project 64 both say me the same BUT the plugin IS in the right folder

[Agozer]

Make sure that BMGLib.dll is in the emulator folder.

[VIRUZ]

OK, now it works but I can`t find the checkbox "Load High-Res......"

PIC1 (http://img239.imageshack.us/img239/5449/unbenanntth8.jpg)


And the textures are in the MAIN EMU FOLDER, correct ?

PIC 2 (http://img516.imageshack.us/img516/6314/unbenanntsh3.jpg)

[mudlord]

Look in the "texture filters" tab....

[VIRUZ]

Look in the "texture filters" tab....




Than you.
Now I found it, but it doen`t load the textures:angry:

[Agozer]

Than you.
Now I found it, but it doen`t load the textures:angry:
Then your folder structure is most likely wrong.

[VIRUZ]

But I don`t know what`s my problem.
In the main emu folder I have one folder called "The Legend of Zelda" and in this folder are the other folders wich have the textures inside.

[Agozer]

The textures folder need to be in the Plugin folder, not in the emulator folder. I hope tht the texture pack came with a readme file. If it did, read it.

[Braiso]

EDIT: Sorry, i post in the wrong topic :unsure:

[Zern]

Ok I dont get it I used to do this kinda of stuff but when ever I load the textures they are not showing up anymore I dont know what im doing wrong they just dont show up on the screen it used to work for me befor and I was kinda good at it too.

[zaczac]

Does it matter if you resize / or add more colour and change to 32 bit?

[Dark_Ansem]

I heard of a kerber pack for Mario Kart 64. I think the main page needs to be uploaded. If I can find it, who do I have to send the link to?

[0368]

[DEZIMIEREN]

[cerebus5]

Everything is working great except I get this dithering box at the top left of my screen where the menus are. Does anyone know what causes this and how to remove it?


Edit I figured out the problem. What an awesome project. Very impressed with all the work done here.
