Like many official Nintendo games on GameCube and Wii, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker uses mipmap levels to control some effects. As an enhancement, Dolphin uses higher mipmap levels further away as internal resolution increases to make textures look sharper. This breaks effects that rely on accurate mipmap levels. While support for detecting these cases was added in {{revision|5.0- | Like many official Nintendo games on GameCube and Wii, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker uses mipmap levels to control some effects. As an enhancement, Dolphin uses higher mipmap levels further away as internal resolution increases to make textures look sharper. This breaks effects that rely on accurate mipmap levels. While support for detecting these cases was added in {{revision|5.0-5745}} it requires the CPU texture decoders. As such, mixing high resolution output with GPU Texture Decoding will cause the wrong mipmap levels even after the fixes were added. | ||

{{testing/entry|revision=5.0|OS=Windows 7 x64|CPU=Intel i7-4790K @ 4.0GHz|GPU=NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970|result=The game runs perfect with hd texture packs, eating up 20GB of RAM when prefetching is enabled. It dose not always complete prefetching couse it works only 1 out of 10 tries. When it works it is 60s to load it all into RAM, but many times the emulator crashes with memory errors while trying to load custom textures into RAM at the begining. Here is a perfect emulation with custom textures sucessfully prefetched. I have tried many setings but you can check my current one in the videos description.
