00:00Hello, everyone! I have great news about the best way to play Ocarina of Time Remake that does not involve
00:05emulation.
00:06The Ocarina of Time Remake will run natively in PC using an application called Hookshot.
00:11Hookshot is a static recompilation.
00:14The game's code is translated to C and compiled into a Windows or Linux program,
00:19the console's system software is re-implemented, and the Switch 2 graphics are rebuilt on Vulkan.
00:26All of this happens on your PC, from your own copy of the game.
00:30Because of this, you will have the best settings and performance than emulation.
00:34So if you wanted to know how to get the game and the installation process, please stick around.
00:39But, before you follow this guide, I need you to agree that you own a legal copy of the game.
00:44You purchased a physical cart of the game.
00:47This tutorial is for those who want to get a digital backup copy of their games, but don't know how
00:53to dump it.
00:54If you agree to this, then proceed to the guide.
00:57Open a web browser and search for NotRexHookshot in Google.
01:01Click on the GitHub link, go to the Repository section, click on the Hookshot link.
01:07Scroll down below, look for latest release on the system you are using.
01:11For this example, I'll go for the Windows version.
01:15Always download the latest released version, so click on the HookshotBuilder.exe file to download it.
01:22The next step is to get the NUP file of Ocarina of Time.
01:26That is why you will need to scan this QR code you see in the screen and you will be
01:30redirected to a site to get them.
01:33Follow all the instructions in the site in order for you to get the game.
01:37Once done, let's install them now into the Hookshot application in your PC.
01:43Locate the HookshotBuilder.exe and the NUP file of Ocarina of Time.
01:48Double-click HookshotBuilder.
01:49Set the location where you have the NUP file of Ocarina of Time.
01:53Then, in the Install the Game to section, select where the recompilation will be stored.
01:58It is where Hookshot and Ocarina of Time will be both stored, so be sure to use an SSD drive
02:03for much faster performance.
02:04Build Workers is set to Automatic and then click on the Build the Game button to start the recompilation.
02:09It took 45 minutes at my end for the recompilation to complete.
02:12I'm going to skip this part since I have already set up mine.
02:15Once the recompilation is done and shader compilation is done, you'll be able to play the game.
02:23Now, I will try to play the game so that you can see its performance.
02:28I will show you its frame-gen performance and no frame-gen performance as well as my settings in the
02:33game so you can pause the video and copy them.
03:26Take on the video for the last 10cm of the title and forwards with a free button.
03:34Let's go.
03:59Let's go.
04:49So, yes, this game runs better as a PC recompilation rather than via emulation.
04:55Nintendo will have a hard time shutting the project down since it's rebuilt on Vulkan
04:59for PC.

05:07Thank you for watching and see you in the next one.
