panda_venom's Tales of Symphonia Texture Pack
Tales of Symphonia HD textures New release: V0.96 (Beta)
The textures are in BC7 dds format. It’s for the Dolphin’s desktop version! May or may not work on android!
Download: Base version for 1080p (2K background textures)
Add-on: 4K backgrounds (overwrite the background folder)
Please delete the old GQSEAF or GQS texture folder before install the new version!
Known issues: - Ymir forest is a little glitchy, the water effect is not 100% compatible with the HD textures in some part. (I am trying to fix this, but not an easy task) - Some grass, trees, or other transparent textures may be slightly off (the original assets are very compressed and low-res) - Missing some endgame content’s HD textures - Some background colors are slightly different from the original (a little darker, no big deal)
Skits flickering: If you enable the Prefetch option in the Dolphin menu, it fixes the flickering (and some other stuttering and glitches), but you need at least 16 GB of RAM (or 24-32 for the 4K backgrounds). Without prefetch, there will be minor glitches (like the flickering skits), but you need much less ram.

How to set it up
- In Dolphin, open File > Open User Folder, then go into
Load/Textures/. - Extract the download there, so you end up with a
Load/Textures/GQS/folder. - Open Graphics > Advanced and tick Load Custom Textures. Ticking Prefetch Custom Textures too stops stutter, if you have the RAM for it.
