Does this texure pack work?

[Yoyoman]

Will this texture pack work with Dolphin? Do I need to change certain settings for it to work?

We aren't a Nintendo 64 emulator, so this texture pack won't work with us.

How did you manage to associate a Mario 64 texture pack, that says in the article its for emulator64, with Dolphin?

You could use the same textures in another mario game yes, but you'd have to rename all the textures correctly according to the names of the files dumped by the mario game you play on dolphin, quite a lot of work.

It won't work right out of the package, but you can make it work.

All you just need to do is enable it to dump the textures (Graphics > Advanced > Dump Textures), boot up Super Mario 64 Virtual Console, and play the game as usual.

Once you think you have gotten enough textures, you can copy all of the dumped textures into the load folder (Documents\Dolphin Emulator\Load\Textures) and replace them with the Super Mario 64 texture pack by copying the dumped texture's name, going into the texture pack, and replacing the texture file with the dumped texture name.

Afterwards, you enable it to load the textures (Graphics > Advanced > Load Custom Textures), and play Super Mario 64 Virtual Console.

Do I have to play the whole game to dump all of the textures?

Unless they're recycled a lot, then yes. Dolphin can only tell for sure that something's used as a texture when a game tries to use it as such.

Is there a 100% guarantee that the texture will work?

Its 100% sure dolphin will read the texture and show it ingame provided its named the way dolphin expects (the same name as a dumped texture).

But to be honest the amount of work you'll have to go through renaming hundreds and hundreds of textures that aren't made for this game anyway, is most probably not worth it.

Why don't you actually do a quick test with just 1 of the textures, its been 2 weeks since you first asked if you could use a texturepack not made for a gamecube/wii game with a wii/gamecube game via dolphin.

Provided names are correct and things are placed correctly it will 100% work, but if you don't do that, then theres a 0% chance it will work.
