Giodude's Sonic and the Black Knight Texture Pack
I fixed the downloads!
This texture pack replaces nearly every texture in the game, each upscaled using ESRGAN and Gigapixel. I’ve also attached a graphics mod that fixes the low res bloom effect or removes it altogether (turns out the same mod for sonic colors works here). This mod also replaces any Wii remote button prompts with XBOX Series X buttons, as well as coming with a control scheme configuration for dolphin. Here are some of the notable controls below:
A - A B - B or Right Bumper 1 - Thumb R 2 - Shoulder L Z - Either Trigger Tilt Wii remote/use pointer - Right analog stick Swing sword - X Shake nunchuck - Y
I’d love feedback if you have any. I can add back in the original Wii controls or make separate control scheme options if there are enough requests. Also please point out of there are any textures that look off or need upscaling so I can add them to the pack.

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