THE LEGEND OF KRYSTAL - THE WIND WAKER
--------------------------------------

Mod by AngelTheVixen, version 1.0

This mod is intended for use with the GameCube version of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, specifically with the game code GZLE01.


--------------------------------------
             INTRODUCTION
--------------------------------------

Thanks for downloading my mod! As a Krystal and Dinosaur Planet obsessor, it brings me great joy to offer this little mod to you and your enjoyment. Finally, Krystal of Animus can have her own, whole and complete adventure.


--------------------------------------
            HOW TO INSTALL
--------------------------------------

Below are the instructions to install and play!

Both a complete mod with additional changes and a standalone model compatible with the Randomizer are available.


Full Mod
--------

A - Standard - Install through GameCube File Tools.

1) Download the program GameCube File Tools by LagoLunatic, found at:
https://github.com/LagoLunatic/GCFT
If you're unfamiliar with GitHub, look on the side of the page for Releases and download the appropriate package.

2) Acquire a vanilla, unmodified ISO of the North American version of The Wind Waker, the game's internal label should be GZLE01.

3) Run GameCube File Tools.

4) Select 'Import GCM', and import the ISO.

5) Select 'Replace All Files in GCM'.

6) Find the mod folder, and click on the 'Full Mod' folder. Confirm with Select Folder, and make sure it's not for any of the folders inside of it.

7) The files will be replaced. Select 'Export GCM' and save the patched copy.

8) Enjoy Krystal's adventure!


B - Advanced - Install by replacing existing files.

If you have an ISO, Dolphin allows you to right click on a game > Properties > Filesystem > Extract Entire Disc. You can then adjust the emulator's config to add the extracted game folder to the game paths. Dolphin will be able to run a game in its entirety through folders rather than disc images with this method.

Once the game is dumped into folders for use in Dolphin, you can use this simple replacement method.

It is highly suggested to make a full copy of the game into another folder as a backup. Then, you can insert the folders from the Full Mod folder and overwrite the same folders of the vanilla Wind Waker. When that's all done, you'll be able to play!


Randomizer Pack
---------------

This mod comes with a Randomizer-compatible package for your Rando enjoyment, so you can send her on one confusing mess of an adventure.

Her textures have been simplified to allow for color changes, have fun with making your own vixen!

To install, all you have to do is place the 'Krystal (Dinosaur Planet)' folder into the 'models' folder for the Randomizer, and restart the Randomizer. It's simple as that!


--------------------------------------
          TOTAL MODIFICATIONS
--------------------------------------

 - Title screen logo changed.
 - Link replaced.
 - Link's voice changed.
 - Power Bracelets given new model.
 - Magic Armor visuals modified slightly.
 - Hero's Charm given new model.
 - Heart gauge in UI is now fox-shaped.
 - Minor script changes for flavor.
 - All text (Except the intro) can now be at least skipped through.
 - Internal labels changed for software/hardware execution.
 - Demo video replaced.


--------------------------------------
             KNOWN ISSUES
--------------------------------------

 - Major: Voice modification is absent for many cutscenes, and Krystal will make Link noises.
 - Minor: The size and necessary placement of Krystal's ears and tail may clip into things. Her tail clipping through the shield when at rest is the easiest to see.
 - Potentially Major: Not all voice clips tested, possible to have scratchy clips.
 - Potentially Minor: Text changes have not been fully tested, has not been entirely proofread in-game.
 - Potentially Minor: Possible clipping or other issues with Link's items.


Measures have been taken to where it may be possible to run this mod on original hardware. Given my lack of access to doing so myself, however, that guarantee is weak.


Bugs and oversights can crop up all the time. If you come across any, please let me know on Twitter or Discord. I am in the Wind Waker Randomizer server as well.

Special Thanks to LagoLunatic for doing SO MUCH work on making the game moddable and other good stuff.
BigSharkZ as well for being so prolific and inspirational and helpful.
LordNed for the amazingly designed Winditor tool.
And the modding community for showing what anybody can do, even someone like me who had NO experience with this stuff (Including 3D modeling at all) when I began.


Have fun with Krystal!
