Hello! This is my HD texture pack page for Zelda Ocarina of Time 3D!

Psst! I also have a HD texture pack for Zelda Majora’s Mask 3D!

Some general info regarding this texture pack which you should read before you download it;

There are ~6000 unique textures in the game ( I have tried to dump every single one, however I may have missed a few ). Out of these textures a few hundred have been completely re-textured or upscaled to look substantially better than the original. Other textures have been left untouched until I’ve worked on them. The textures that I’ve upscaled have been so using waifu2x-caffe, letsenhance.io using these instructions by Bighead. Some filtered textures have been modified or changed entirely to look better as well. In many cases, filtered textures look worse than the original textures so that’s why I’ve decided to leave many of them untouched until a later point.

It is very important to me that the texture pack stays faithful to the original vision . This means that I try my hardest to make new textures look like higher resolution versions of the original textures, and not like brand new textures or out-of-place mashups.

I am completely up for suggestions, changes and submissions. You will of course be fully credited for any work you submit. These are still very early days and there is much work left to do.

In-game text has not been upscaled yet because of the strange way Ocarina of Time handles text printing. If you want smooth text, enable the xBRZ freescale filter in the Citra Graphics Settings and set it to “3” or higher (if your computer can handle it!).

The pack is scaled to 8x the default resolution , this means that ( if the internal resolution is increased in Citra ) you may be able to view some textures at a staggering 3200x1920 resolution! A lower resolution version (4x) is also available for weaker computers.

This texture pack is for Zelda Ocarina of Time 3D only. There are no plans to port it to the N64 version.

This texture pack will work with any custom mods / hacks of Ocarina of Time 3D as long as they don’t add new textures or change old ones (in that case, conflicting textures will be overwritten by one another but it will still work).

This texture does not include material maps since Citra does not support this feature yet.

It works with all versions of the game, including the PAL/JAP/KOR versions of the game.

The total file size of the texture pack is roughly 6GB for the 4K version, and 1.7GB for the 1080p version.

Post-Processing works if you install ReShade into Citra and follow the instructions provided in the installation folder for Zelda OOT3DHD (update 1.1.0 onwards) and grants access to some great graphical enchancements like Ambient Occlusion, Depth of Field, Bloom, Tonemapping and more!

Special thanks to Luke Gonet for letting me use their 4K render of the Medallions! Please check out their portfolio here.

Here are some more screenshots with the texture pack activated;

Progression: ~75% done. I focus on the most important and prevalent textures first.

Installation guide:

This guide is for windows but should be very similar on Mac and Linux.

1. Download the texture pack from the link below.

2. Download and install the Citra Emulator CANARY VERSION.

3. Extract the .png files inside the “Zelda Ocarina of Time 3D HD” folder into the Custom Texture Directory for Zelda Ocarina of Time 3D. Reach that easily by right-clicking the game in the games list in Citra and pressing “Open Custom Texture Folder”.

4. In the Citra settings, make sure that “Use Custom Textures” is enabled in “Emulation” >> “Configure” >> “Graphics”.

5a. In the same menu, ensure that the “Internal Resolution” is set to a higher value than the default. Preferably 4x or higher.

5b. (Optional) In the same menu you can also enable xBRZ freescale and set it to “3” or higher. This will smoothen out the in-game text but at the cost of some performance.

6. Go to the Advanced Graphics tab, enable “Accurate Multiplication”. Otherwise items won’t display on the bottom screen.

7. Play the game!

If you encounter any issues with the texture pack please post them in the comments of this post, or PM them to me on my Discord server.

Enjoy!
