Giodude replaced almost every texture in Sonic and the Black Knight with versions upscaled through ESRGAN (the 4x-AnimeSharp, 4x_BSRGAN and 8x_NMKD-Typescale_175k models) and Gigapixel. The full PNG set and the smaller DDS set hold the same textures.

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