Nintendo's thematic action-adventure sequel to Ocarina of Time takes the series back to its more cartoonish roots. Utilizing a completely new look with cel-shaded graphics, the game casts players in the role of a familiar young boy, who sets out to save his kidnapped sister. Gameplay is vintage Zelda, only that the game's overworld is covered by water. Players have to control the direction of the wind to sail across the ocean and find dungeons, towns, and plenty of secrets. A special Game Boy Advance link-up option lets another player join the quest and give hints and assistance via the handheld.
Problems
Sound issues
- Not fixed yet
Distant areas issues
- Distant areas are blurry with EFB copy to RAM option enabled. To avoid this, enable EFB copy to texture, but this will prevent the pictobox from working (infinite error when taking a photo).
- But distant areas may get "pixelated" with EFB copy to texture. So there are 3 ways to get a clear image at distance in that case :
1.Disable CPU->EFB access, enable EFB copy to RAM. This is actually the best way I found, since it
seems to break only the sun glare effect without affecting other things.
2.Disable EFB copy. This solves the distant areas problem but breaks some effects like characters
shadows, screen blurring (when cutting small trees with sword and other things), and causes the pictobox problem.
3.Enable the Bleach versus crusade hack (in the ISO properties). This solves the problem too but
causes other glitches.
- Please note : I haven't cleared the game yet, so if you find any issue that I haven't noticed with these settings, please report.
