It looks...strange

I don't know why though. There's something about it that makes me feel uncomfortable.

It's still impressive. +1 for you

No offense but it looks nothing like the Wii U version, and you guys also botched the original version. I'd rather just have one or the other, not a frankenstein that messes with the colors of the original.

It looks really good.
Dolphin is impressive.

The thing doesn't come even close to Wind Waker HD in any aspect. Textures, lightning, shadows... nothing.

Don't you know that emulators are evil and bound to destroy the gaming industry? How dare you improve an older game without the written consent of Nintendo!

Are you for real?. Have you watched the video in 1440P??. Its using the WiiU textures!. Except alex is working on them to make them even higher quality and in a higher res. So whatever about your opinion on the lighting (Many people hate the WiiU's over used bloom!).

But for you to say the textures are worse is just plan wrong (When they are the WiiU's textures!), and is clear that you just commented for the sake of it imo.

I'm for real. The textures in general are not as sharp as in the Wii U version. There are a lot of examples (basically every damn texture), but the clearest one is the rock that hits helmarock king. In the Wii U version, the texture on the rock is much sharper than in the mod. That pretty much proves these "Wii U textures" are not really Wii U textures. Because if the mod, even running at a higher resolution than the Wii U version is not able to show at least the same texture quality... something is wrong: you are either lying by saying that they are the exact same textures... or you are doing something wrong in the programming part. You choose, but it doesn't really matter what it is. It won't change the fact that the mod is not at Wii U level at any level.

Just look at my comparison videos.

Yes the has been some edits to the textures, yes every texture has not been ripped and applyed yet (Like i said this mod is still work in progress),

Maybe its cos the Wiiu is only displaying everything at 720P, and with this being in 1440P the characters and stuff look much shaper.

So its possible it makes it easier to see that the WiiU textures are not in that high of a res in the first place.

With upscaling what you gotta remember the textures still stay the same res, so maybe it makes it stand out more?.

But the plan is to have every texture in a much higher res then the WiiU version so everything blends in better. but like i said its still work in progress.

Wind Waker HD is 1080p, not 720p. And I reaffirm in my statement: textures on Wii U look a lot better than in this mod.  I'm ok if this is still a work in progress, but I'm just talking about what it is right now. If a month later you open another post to show your progress and the mod looks better, I will say it looks better. But I'm not gonna say to you that this is impressive right now, because it's not. Sorry if I'm being a bit rude, but that's how I'm.
