Finally, the definitive HD texture pack for Super Smash Bros. Melee's first release is complete. It is compatible with any version of Dolphin, and of course Slippi Online.
Download link: / definitive_melee_hd_do...
Install instructions:
1. Download any of the packs. .DDS files are easier for Dolphin to load, with slight loss of quality, and .PNG are lossless.
2. Find your Dolphin/Slippi install location and open it in your file browser. Then, navigate to User, Load, Textures, and make sure a folder called GALE01 is there. This is Melee's game ID, so any textures placed in there will be used.
3. Then, enable custom textures by going to Dolphin/Slippi and clicking Graphics, Advanced tab, and then enabled "Load custom textures." You'll also want to check the "Prefetch Custom Textures" option as well to prevent in-game stuttering.
4. Optionally, you can increase the quality to 1080p. To do this, go to Graphics, the first Enhancements tab, and change Internal Resolution to 3x (1920x1584) for 1080p. You may also increase Anti-Aliasing and Anisotropic Filtering settings, but this may affect performance.
5. Optionally you can enable widescreen for Melee. To do this, right click Melee from the game list, select Properties, and then click the Gecko Codes tab. Make sure "Optional: Widescreen 16:9" is enabled. Then, go to Graphics, and under the General tab, change Aspect Ratio from its current option to "Stretch to Window." Then make sure you run the game at full screen by using alt+Enter.

Bro you are soooo goated! Ty for everything u have done for the melee community :)
I’m the first like and first comment I’m surprised no one found this yet 😏
I know that we’re gonna see another Ludvix video using the HD pack
Thanks so much!! This was a team effort for sure.
Hey bro when are you gona upload
Can't wait to install this on my pc that can barely handle diet melee!
Hahaha. Yeah, sorry about that! Hopefully at some point Slippi online will move to mainline Dolphin from Ishiiruka so it can support BC7 DDS textures.
0:31 they even payed attention to Roy’s name tag being pure black. Unbelievable attention to detail. You’ve outdone yourself.
Amazing idea to put the how to install in the same vid right away, good friggin job!!!
Thank you! Haha yeah I've learned that the hard way.
Thanks for all of your amazing work! It’s great to see so many talented and passionate people in the melee scene.
Thanks, it was a team effort! Glad you like it!
This is about to blow up. May even be featured on mang0 and the 60-40 show haha :)
Hope so! Would be an honor!
Yea I could already see that happen.
you're actually fucking insane. These are so perfect, remedies what I always dislike about HD packs: different poses on CSS lol.
I'm in the same boat. Can't stand it when the poses are random nonsense lol. Glad you're enjoying them; it definitely was a team effort.
has this blown up yet? this is absolutely beautiful stuff. FD looks fantastic.
Thanks everyone for being patient! You can download the pack here: www.reddit.com/r/SSBM/comments/niqgf9/definitive_melee_hd_dolphin_and_slippi_texture/
Edit: For those having issues in 2022 finding the location, watch this video: ua-cam.com/video/WmhnNlfy0Uk/v-deo.html
Our prayers have been answered, this will undoubtedly be as crucial as Slippi itself in due time (hopefully)
@@VoidPlugger I don't think that's true haha. But thanks!!
@@davidvkimball I mean, when Melee comes back to larger scale arena's once again, I'm sure this would be a noticeable difference for bigger venues?
with your help I can complete my melee hd remastering
look in 2023 ua-cam.com/video/BrMUUmkwKbs/v-deo.html
Holy crap thank you to all of you that made this possible it's actually insane how good everything looks
Thanks!!
Tried it out, lookin clean as hell. Amazing work David!
Thanks so much! Glad you liked it. Team I worked with did an amazing job.
This texture pack matches Melee's original artstyle perfectly, I love it.
I'm a bit sad that blender files aren't included, but still incredible job!
Thanks so much! Yeah we aren't able to provide those, sorry. Hope you enjoy the pack.
Every modding project of yours over the years has given me and my friends joy. Thanks for continuing to be awesome for the community.
Seriously so nice of you to say. Enjoy

Thanks! It was a team effort, I'll pass this along!
This is something I’ve been excited about for so long. I’m not that good at Melee, but I still have so much fun with it. I can’t wait to try this out when I get back to my PC.
To the folks that worked on it, y’all are the best.
Thanks! Hope you enjoy it!

DAVID THE GOAT
Thank you!!
My man David just put more work into a free mod than Nintendo would dream of putting into a $60 release! I can tell the biggest difference on the text in-game; it looks so sharp!
Haha thanks, definitely a team effort

My man!

The definitive way to play Melee on a monitor. God send.
Glad you're enjoying it!
This is wonderful thank you
You're welcome!
As a 59 year old I’m impressed people are playing retro games like that
You should look up the competitive Melee scene. We're alive and thriving.
@@davidvkimball compétitive mêlée sounds like old people still trying to high score pac man.
With this being a thing, melee HD is FINALLY real
Haha yeah!
This is super dope :)
Thanks!
Looks great! The "SUBJECT TABLE" text may have been missed at 1:52
Thanks for the catch! It's actually supposed to look like that I believe haha.

I love the production of this video! I don't like the re-mastered portraits, however... Is it possible to use everything else but not those?
Thanks. It is! Just delete the main > css > portraits folder.
@@davidvkimball Ok! thank you for the help and the pack!
ITS FINALLY HERE
Finally indeed.
Good work

Incredible
Thank you!
LETS GOOO ITS OUT

I was thinking for a moment, "Where's the change?", then I realized my video was 360p, then I saw the change
this is amazing
Thanks!
Looking good apart from the Stock Icons of the characters. Is there no way to improve them? (the heads above the damage percentage)
Wow thx m8!
You got it!
thanks a bunch for that
Yeah, team effort!
King
no u 👑
I didn't see much of a difference (except CSS) until I downloaded it myself . It's just so damn crisp
Glad you like it!
lets gooooo
LETS GOOO
Does the pack include blend files in case I want to make matching renders for characters with custom textures
Unfortunately we don't have .blend files to share at this time.
if u want to open the models in blender so u can texture them they can be easily found online www.models-resource.com/gamecube/ssbm/
@@zacharybishop1639 I'm not talking about the models. The blend file includes the pose, and all the settings so you can change things such as adding custom textures.
Nice
Thanks!
Man, how have you have that little subs when you sould have at least 500K
That's very nice of you to say.
@@davidvkimball Btw this HD looks rad bruh
@@OGKidMelee Thanks!
@@davidvkimball Np keep this up and you will go places on this platform
@@OGKidMelee Thank you!!
Hermoso 👌
Thanks!
This looks awesome! Are there any settings that must be applied for the slippi playback application? I notice when look at replays it doesn't look as crisp as when I'm actually playing live.
yeah, the slippi playback actually runs out of a different dolphin install than the normal slippi client, so you would have to go add the HD textures to that dolphin version as well. you can find where that dolphin is located by looking in the slippi desktop app settings.
@@normalrachael thank you so much man, it worked for me.
@@pennyalavaca glad i could help!!
Hey! this seems to work fine with the akaneia build with a few textures at the character select screen not working I assume cause of wolf. Is it a bad idea to use the textures with akaneia? pretty awesome it seems compatible for the most part.
Right well since it looks at textures in-game to map, if they're modified in any way the mapping won't work. It's possible to rename them to work, just takes time.
Been using for awhile and its great. But I was wondering which part of the pack is causing it to take awhile for it to load after starting slippi. Takes usually about 2 minutes before I get the notification that is complete. Before then I get stutters in game, so I end up just waiting around in the menus for a bit until it loads. I thought this is what the prefetch texture settings is supposed to avoid? But I have that on so Im confused...
Any help would be appreciated
Strange, yeah prefetch should be fixing that.
I need to get into the dolphin scene 🐬
