I think the hard part will be finding/dumping your own gamecube rom. Otherwise, the instructions are pretty easy:
Download Dusk
Windows / macOS / Linux:
- Extract the .zip file
- Launch Dusk
- Press Select Disc Image and provide the path to your supported game dump
- Press Play!

Ripping a GameCube disc is pretty simple if you’ve got a hacked Wii, which is not too hard to do if you own specific games

Thanks. Unfortunately I have/had the Wii version (I hope I still have it somewhere) but the Wii is not modded so may prevent some hurdles for me.

Crap, I missed the GC part. I have the Wii version.

Been playing this, and it’s great! Started right up at 9x resolution, wasn’t too hard to setup a high quality texture pack, and the game is looking sharp at 4k/120 without any issues!
Things look great, and this launching with features like gyro aim, free cam, and QoL like fast climbing and skipping that damn rupee cutscene is phenomenal.
Also, man, can’t wait to come back to this in a year or two with a randomizer and whatever other features they can pack in here.

I’m glad we have high res options but I always immediately set these to 1x res. I ❤️ the jaggies.
RightHandOfIkaros@lemmy.world 2 days ago
To be fair, at this time the game was still being designed on CRTs, so the intended way to play the game from the artists perspective is still at 1x on a CRT, which effectively masks pixels edges with the CRTs inherent picture softening.

Yeah, I love that they so easily provide a “faithful” and “enhanced” version. One button at startup and it runs just like it would on the GameCube, or you can go all out like me!

Bonus, here’s a great Reddit comment that helped me setup a texture pack. Really helps with how soupy those Wii grass and rock textures look at high resolution: www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/…/okx8awj/

Extract: ZTP 4K 3.0b (4K).zip/ZTP4K 3.0b (4K)/User/Load/Textures/GZ2/ To(copy the path from here and put in the address bar):
-
Windows: %appdata%/TwilitRealm/Dusk/texture_replacements/
-
Linux: ~/.local/share/TwilitRealm/Dusk/texture_replacements/
-
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/TwilitRealm/Dusk/texture_replacements/
I’ll add bonus instructions on how to copy the file to bypass Google drives download limit. I had to create a new folder in Google Drive, click the kebab menu on the file, “Create a Shortcut” into that folder, and then go into my drive and download the folder. Seems to cheat Drive’s download limit, and I imagine that’ll be a problem for the next little while now that Dusk has released.

Thank you. Where to install the textures on my Steam Deck was exactly what I was looking for.

Link sure does walk like a super dork in this one.
Never liked his running animation.

I got this running very easily on my Linux laptop with 4k texture pack, and have been playing it with my new Steam Controller.
Never had a chance to play through this game, so this seems like the perfect time
SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 2 days ago
I just tried this on an iPhone 13 and it runs like a charm. No touch controls so only works with a controller or keyboard.
mrnarwall@lemmy.world 2 days ago
I will be downloading this and trying it later today!
I’ve been having issues with games on my Linux mint setup and if this doesn’t work I may finally switch to a different flavor os
besmtt@lemmy.world 2 days ago
Bazzite has been fantastic for me, it could be for you too!
prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 hours ago
As a side note, I’m running Bazzite and this game works great

It's unlikely that whatever issue you're having with your games is because of the desktop environment.
addie@feddit.uk 2 days ago
If your system is all-AMD, then it’s amazing how well Linux just works. Turn it on, hardware accelerated everything.
If you’ve got NVidia anywhere near it, that’s not so much the case. If Mint is being a bit dodgy, then I would have used to recommend trying it with Pop!, since that has pretty good driver support out of the box. Probably outdated advice, something like Bazzite might make more sense now, but I’ve not used it first hand. Partly because my system is all-AMD and just works, but also because I run Arch btw.
MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world 1 day ago
I saw this released and set it up. Hopefully this time I finally make it through Twilight Princess because I really want to learn to live it how everyone else does
addie@feddit.uk 1 day ago
It’s a slow burn, and it undoubtedly sags in the middle - the massive empty spaces tip over from ‘epic’ into ‘time wasting’. But it benefits hugely from telling a very personal drama with a lot of character development, and it has one of the darkest stories of any Zelda game. The Gamecube version has much sharper controls than the Wii version, so is the much better choice to reimplement. Hope you enjoy - I’m a big fan of this game, and set this up to play last night, it’s really smooth.

Also, fun fact: the Wii version is completely mirrored. Like, completely mirrored. Maps, characters, everything.
This is because they realized that most people are right-handed (unlike Link) and they hold the Wiimote with the right hand. So, instead of changing all the animations to make Link use the right hand, they decided the mirror the whole game.
MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world 1 day ago
I get what you mean about Time Wasting, i saw a bit of it in my other attempts at playing. I think another thing stopping me is i’m not a fan of the art style. Something about it i don’t really care for. I want to try it again with a PC port, maybe backup my saves too so i can’t lose them just to be safe
zikzak025@lemmy.world 2 days ago
Really excited for the randomizer mode, will try that out once it’s ready
victorz@lemmy.world 2 days ago
Will a Wii dump work with this? I find it difficult to decipher the exact requirements for making this work.
0k_@lemmy.world 2 days ago
NTSC or PAL GameCube only rn
victorz@lemmy.world 2 days ago
Dang. My private torrent tracker only had the Wii and Wii U versions. And I only have the Wii physical disc. Alright, thanks!

On the plus side, Link will be properly left handed in this.

Downloaded before Nintendo strikes (yeah the project is legal, but also it’s on GitHub)

GitHub sucks now, but I don’t think this project is gonna vanish—Ship of Harkinian hasn’t gone anywhere :3

None of these decomp/recomp projects have been shut down, as far as I know. Having absolutely no code from the games included seems to work!

Don’t release a 1.0.0 version while claiming steam deck compatible when it is very much not. Thank you for all your hard work, but I cannot progress, even tried everything and cannot get out of the first wolf scene…
The z targeting is not functional. Even with multiple controllers. Like that’s the first thing y’all should test. Again thank you, but I am so frustrated after an hour of tweaking and trying.

For those like me who would prefer to have official higher-res textures as opposed to fan-made ones, the textures from the Wii U port can be obtained here.
