Hypatia's HD mod retextures The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. The hosted release is version 2.0001a, in three builds: a full DDS build, a smaller half DDS build and a PNG build.

Original release: [Hypatia's page](https://onthegreatsea.tumblr.com/DOWNLOADS).

## 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/GZL/` folder.
3. Open **Graphics > Advanced** and tick **Load Custom Textures**. Ticking **Prefetch Custom Textures** too stops stutter, if you have the RAM for it.
