Super Smash Bros. HD Retexture Project [v4.0.3] August 2015

[Yami 2b]

Current Version : 4.0.3
Status : Work in Progress
Last update : August 2015
Official Thread
Last revision tested : 4.0.7141

Information

This project began in 2011, when I started recording tournament videos for the French Brawl scene. Dolphin was a great help, and when I figured out that Dolphin was able to replace basic textures of the games with higher resolution textures, I decided to start this project.
The main goal of this project is to give the game better visuals without affecting the original image of the game. Four years later, the project still goes on ! (slowly ... =p)

HD Packs : Download Links

Since the release of Dolphin 4.0-5234, the custom loading texture feature now works differently. Several changes have been done and you can see each of them on this thread.
Actually, only the Project M pack was converted to the new format. The Brawl pack will be converted in quite some time, due to the differences between the three versions of the game. I plan to group the three regions in a single pack for greater comfort.
I recommend to download and use the latest Development version of Dolphin.

4.0 (03/21/2015): (Show Spoiler)

- All textures have been converted to the new Dolphin Custom Texture format, Yeah !
Unfortunately, this update concerns only Project M at the moment, Brawl will be updated as soon as possible.
Thanks to the new format, the pack is compatible with the numerous versions of PM (Launcher, Iso Builder, Gecko OS, Netplay etc...)
No more useless folders on my Dropbox! Yeah !!!
Just a reminder, you need to rename the main folder (RSBEPM for Iso Builder ver., RSBEC3 for Netplay, 00000000 for Launcher etc...)

- Deleted "3_2_1_GO!" folder, all files have been moved in the "Brawl" folder
- Removed the "Bonus" folder from the pack and put it in the Dropbox/Mediafire folder instead
- HD updated strap loaders (put the Wii language in Japanese to actually see them =p). They will be included in the Brawl packs
- A bunch of new textures I can't remember of, so many changes ... ^^"

Nota : Due to the new custom texture format, it's been obvious that the new updated pack will not work with all revisions before
Dolphin v4.0-5234, version which includes the new texture system. An Archives folder has been created for this purpose on my
dropbox/mediafire folder, containing all past textures pack of this project.
Unfortunately, I will not provide support for these versions anymore, but feel free to re-use them.

Hello there, it's been a while ^^"
Here is a gorgeous update with more than 400 new textures for your Brawl (and 700 for the PAL version).

Spoiler: (Show Spoiler)

o 08/10/2012 : V 0.3

• - NEW : High-Res HOME Menu available for PAL and NTSC-U (en, it, fr, es, du)
• - Straps Loader : you can choose between white or black Wii Remote
• - New Battle Portraits (BP) : Marth (White), Ganondorf (Green), Snake (White), Game and Watch (Cyan), Diddy Kong (Pink)
• - Stage Selection Screen (SSS) : COMPLETED (PAL : some textures are not done yet)
• - Menu | Replays : Added stages banners and various stuff
• - Menu | Rules | Stages : Added stages banners and icons
• - Custom Font [EXPERIMENTAL]
  

I currently work on a custom font for Brawl, it seems that most of the letters are cut off :/, the dedicated space is very limited and this should take a lot of time to fit them perfectly. Sakurai did a dirty work on this =p

I also retextured entirely the HOME menu (english, french, dutch, español, italian). I invite everyone working on Retexture projects to put this on their games =P

Of course, I provide some screenshots, with before and after comparisons =)

Looking good, Yami 2b.

"Simply grand [awesome, amazing] I thank you for you work so far"

That is basically what he said. I really think the Dolphin forums should get a group of people together who can translate some of this stuff (at least for the asian languages like Japanese because, in my experience, Google translate sucks with that language)
