The Wind Waker Rewrite F.A.Q.

F.A.Q.

Q. How do I play this?
A. The Wind Waker Rewrite runs on the same emulation software that the original Wind Waker does: Dolphin. Use the latest version for best results.

Q. How do I patch this?
A. As written above, you will want to use "xDelta" to patch your clean, original rom of The Wind Waker. You will need this as well as either an .nkit or .iso patch file--both included above in their respective links. It's very simple!

Q. The ".NKIT PATCH" turned my .nkit into an .iso. Should I panic?
A. I'm not your dad so I won't tell you what to do but, rest assured, your rom is perfectly fine and playable. This happens because I developed the Rewrite using an old .iso, completely unaware of what an .nkit even was until today.

Q. I tried to launch The Wind Waker Rewrite and got a creepy error screen saying the disc could not be read. I should panic now, right?
A. Panic if you like, but this is easily resolved by closing the game and restarting it again. In the few times I've encountered this issue, it's never appeared twice in a row.

Q. I tried to save but it said it failed. I'm fucked, right? Panic time?
A. If your attempt to save fails, it's likely because you hit quickload as soon as Dolphin started up. So I would recommend not hitting quickload as soon as Dolphin starts up, and give it a few seconds after before you manually save. You aren't fucked. Don't panic.

Q. Why is everyone being mean to me in-game?
A. You're a gnome. Fuck gnomes. Start panicking.
