Explore and settle the NEW HYRULE!
The goal of this resource pack was to create (from the ground up) a Zelda-themed mash-up in the vein of, and matching the quality of the Super Mario Mash-Up that was released for the Wii U version of Minecraft. This is mainly themed after Wind Waker but there are numerous pulls from other games in the franchise.
To get the most out of this pack, you'll want to be running either Fabric, with a few mods (listed below), or Optifine. This will enable the custom skybox, custom entity models, connected textures, and mob variants (including 400+ visually distinct Villager NPCs) that I created for this pack. I also recommend playing with clouds turned off since there are already clouds in the modded skybox.
If you don't want to use Optifine, I recommend the following mods to make all of the features work:
-CIT Resewn (for custom items)
-Continuity (for connected textures)
-Entity Texture Features (for mob variants and glowing entities)
-Entity Model Features (for custom entity models)
-Fabric API (dependency for certain other mods needed)
-Fabric Skyboxes (Get those nice Wind Waker Clouds)
What makes this Wind Waker Resource Pack special?
-Compatible with Minecraft 1.21
-Compatible with Optifine
-100% complete resource pack
-Designed specifically for 16x16 texture resolution by a reasonably skilled pixel artist
-Unified, Cohesive design.
-I tried to make it a solid resource pack even if you don't know Zelda, so that you still enjoy it even after the initial novelty wears off.
Why is it 16x16 and not HD? A few reasons: Firstly, Nintendo's own official "Super Mario Mash-Up" for Minecraft Wii U was only 16x16 and this pack was inspired by that one. Secondly, I think lower resolution textures mesh better and don't look as awkward on the blocky models of Minecraft. Lastly, by making this in a 16x16 resolution I am able to broaden the scope of the pack for things like including 400+ visually distinct NPCs.
There are a number of other good Wind Waker-inspired packs out there, made by folks like Ravecat, Fluesopp, IronSentron, and Blaziken584 which you should check out if you want an HD pack, but none of those were exactly what I was looking for, and none of those have been updated to the latest version of Minecraft, so I made my own.
I hope you enjoy,
