BooLean's Paper Mario HD Texture Pack (Wii Virtual Console)

What you need: Dolphin and the Wii Virtual Console release of Paper Mario. It does not work with N64 emulators.

Paper Mario 64 is a great game but sadly the original textures truly aged like milk.

AFAIK there is no complete or even remotely complete texture pack for Paper Mario 64 (even less for the VC version of the game), so I decided to create one myself.

While this texture-pack isn’t perfect, it is mostly complete and contains textures from start to finish while also remaining somewhat faithful to the original art-style.

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