Hey everyone! I'd like to introduce to you my port for the Nintendo Switch of the beloved Ocarina of Time PC port called Ship of Harkinian. It comes with some handy features like widescreen, 60 fps, and even some cool enhancements like an integrated randomizer and a ton of more integrated mods!

• Latest atmosphere ( You can get it from here )
• A device with Windows / Linux or MacOS to create the OTR

Installation

• Download the latest release of Ship of Harkinian on a desktop device, you can get it from the links listed above.
• Use the program called OTRGui to generate the otr file. ( Warning - You need to use one of the versions listed below, only a few are supported for now )
• Download the latest switch port from here
• Copy the otr file you generated into switch/ among with the otr you generated on the last step.
• Enjoy <3!

Very cool! Oot reloaded says that it includes italian language but I'm not able to set it in game. Someone can help me?

Djipi has released his 3DS texture pack for soh:

I'm trying it now on switch, but having some problems making it work. It's properly my own fault but I'm too tired now so will retry again tomorrow.

Is there a skin mod that makes it look like the Zelda Space World 2000 Demo?

Use the latest version and generate a new oot.otr / oot-mq.otr usually solves most problems

I've just manage to make it work, and yes, I updated SoH and generated new *.otr
Now, SoH look like the 3DS version, even models looks like 3DS with the Character pack.

I anyone want to try, here is what I did:
- Download "Djipi's 3DS Experience" and "3DS Character Pack"
https://gamebanana.com/mods/477979
https://gamebanana.com/mods/478711

- Delete Link's Textures in Djipi's 3DS Experience (if you want to use Links 3DS texture)
- Copy all otr files from Djipi's 3DS Experience to the mods folder inside SoH
- Make a subfolder inside Mods folder and name it "Z OoT3D Models" (this will make mods in this folder load last)
- Move all otr from character mods pack to "Z OoT3D Models"

Settings to use inside SoH:
Enhancements -> Graphics -> Mods -> Use Alternate Assets
Enhancements -> Graphics -> Mods -> Disable Grotto Fixed Rotation
Enhancements -> Graphics -> Enable 3D dropped items / projectiles
Enhancements --> Fixes --> and be sure to have Out of Bounds Textures being UNCHECKED

whenever you get tired of playing it vanilla, you can run a playthrough leveling up Link

How do you generate a new otr? Is it as simple as adding the mods in the folder and just running the game again?

Edit: Figured it out. Was being dumb and did not add the mods folder to the switch folder.

I've seen that mod and it looks really intereting. Haven't decided if I want to try that mod or my first randomizer yet, both sounds like a fun change of gameplay. Thnaks for the tip

You're welcome

Hi everyone! Just installed this on my Switch. The game runs and plays fine, however I can't access the enhancements menu. It seems like the Select (-) is inactive. Any ideas on how to fix that?

 

[ASCiiDiTY]

Thank you for releasing the port here, I'm excited to give this a try once I finish getting through LTTP Decompilation Port on Switch

Is there a guide anywhere about setting up the LLTP port on a switch?

This isn't an appropriate place to ask for support on something completely different than the original subject.
If you use the search function under the Nintendo Switch section, you should be able to find the repository for the port, as well as included instructions on how to build it for Switch.

1. I extracted the main OTR with the Retro tools.
2. Replace the extracted textures by PNG ver of OoT Reloaded.
3. Compress to the OTR file with the Retro tools.
4. Put above OTR file to the folder switch/soh/mods (create a new one if you don't have it)
For more details: https://github.com/GhostlyDark/OoT-Reloaded-SoH

NM i figured it out the ORT you generating isn't a rebuild of the game but rather a Texture pack that goes in the mod folder.


I tried this method but when you move it to the switch you get an error for launching with an "old OTR" file

I got the original OTR file from the Win Version of SOH, I downloaded the HD Textures pack (PNG Version) and Extracted that.
I Used that Retro Tool to Create OTR, Replace Textures, then it generated several Directories (code/objects/overlays/scenes/textures). I overwrote all those with the ones in the Texture HD Pack and I tried 2 different methods (Keeping the original manifest.json & moving the manifest.json over from the texture pack)

I then go back it asks to stage the Textures, I do so and at the bottom of the screen it's green asking to finalize then it generates a new otr. If you take that OTR to the Switch you get the Error, also the Same with trying to load it in the Windows version as it thinks it's an older version as well and states it needs to rebuild, it does that and reverts it back to the original...

So not sure whats missing here? To i just move the Textures folder and ignore the rest? I think that might be how i try next, but it seems scenes and overlays would be a part of the HD Textures pack....

So stupid question but how can you remap the switch controller buttons in this?
I'm in the controller configuration screen and the only 2 buttons it will accept is B, which taps out of the menu, and A which sets the highlighted button to button 1, which is A

 

[B-alpha]

Use the Touchscreen

Nevermind, you just have to press A very briefly
