texture pack will not load

[kendamasteven]

So I just got the Phantom 7 high res pack and I loaded it onto mupen64 plus (ae) and I started the game and nothing has changed wondering if I missed a step or anything

sorry if this has been asked already tried to look but no luck that's why I'm here now lol

and yes I zipped it myself and turned on the right plug in and activated high resolution packs..

Thanks for the report, I'll take a look.  Where can I find the Phantom 7 high res pack?

[kendamasteven]

This is where I downloaded it from. scroll down and there is a media fire link.. Thank you for taking a look

[Paul]

I think you forgot to add the [url=blah] blah [/url] tags around your link.

I find that loading it from .zip files doesnt work some of the time. Try manually installing the folder. Hires texture packs are really finicky and require a specific version of the game you are trying to play since thats where the offset values are generated from. Place the unzipped texture folder into the folder that my screenshot is posted to.

[kendamasteven]

...no I just didn't paste it at all... *fail* HERE [nofollow] I'm pretty terrible at this kinds stuff lol ill try putting the pack in that folder real quick

[kendamasteven]

and if I needed a specific rom would I need one by the creator of the pack or would I just use like a debugged version?

[beansta]

No usually they say which ROM to get, i think that one needs the US version of Ocarina of time

Edit: my method works fine for me.

hmm idk what I'm doing wrong maybe it's the pack I got because I tried the debugged and the US rom and nothings worked :/

[beansta]

Try getting the game from somewhere else (i cant suggest where cos that would be illegals) but one i aquired worked fine.

[kendamasteven]

Like I said I did get two new roms from two dif places... maybe it's the pack.. does anyone know of another OOT pack that's worth it?

and did you get it to work with the phantom 7 pack?

[kendamasteven]

YEEEEEEEESSSSS OK no more bothering anyone with this.... moved a zipped folder directly to the hires folder instead of unzipped loaded right up...


THANKYOUU! @beansta

[beansta]

Id suggest using the LOZ community pack, its more complete but its also bigger at 640mb (or thereabouts)

[kendamasteven]

Yeah I'm gonna take a look at all the available packs that are around the interwebs. how would I go about using multiple packs just remove the one I don't want to use from the hires folder?

and idk if you know or not but does the community pack have a complete download link anywhere or is the multiple files (all around like 40-60 MB?)

[littleguy]

Yeah, there seem to be some issues with the unzipping or something, we've heard of some issues.  I don't know much about hi-res texture stuff but I put it on my checklist for version 3, so that we don't overlook it as we get closer to release.
