Snowblind's pack brings 4x textures to Ikaruga, Treasure's vertically scrolling shooter. It is a single DDS-BC7 download of about 346 MB.

Original release: [Snowblind's thread](https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-ikaruga-hd-texture-pack-gcn-v1-2-04-14-2022).

## How to set it up

1. In Dolphin, open **File > Open User Folder**, then go into `Load/Textures/`.
2. Extract the download there, so you end up with a `Load/Textures/GIK/` folder.
3. Open **Graphics > Advanced** and tick **Load Custom Textures**. Ticking **Prefetch Custom Textures** too stops stutter, if you have the RAM for it.
