April Fools! Surely you didn't expect an actual full or official game, right? :P Huh, you're saying you want this to be released anyway? Hmm... It did take a lot of work to get this ready for this date... Well, good news! While it is not a full or brand new game, all that was showcased here will someday be made available in the form of a mod pack! This video was made in two weeks with very little sleep, as a proof of concept to show some of what can be done with Wind Waker modding. However, please understand that this is a very large amount of work for a single person (Over a hundred hours were spent working on this, for example) and that my free time is often limited, so it will take a while to have a proper release, especially when I have many other projects in the works. Until then, feel free to enjoy the other mods I have released, available on my GameBanana page! gamebanana.com/members/1555155 This includes content such as my Malon / Romani mod and my Dark Linka mod pack, 6 months in the making, which already has the Desert Colossus map shown here. There is also the original Young Link mod (based on Majora's Mask) made by Bird of Light to keep you waiting until my version of the character is available for download. Have any questions? Let me know in the comments! But make sure to check out the description when I update it for more information. Stay safe and thank you for watching! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EDIT: Extra info to answer commonly-asked questions: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - The character style is not meant to replicate Wind Waker's 1:1, but rather a mix between it and OoT. When the Link mod releases however, 3 versions will be available. WW Style (Same head and eye shape as Toon Link), Altered WW Style (Slightly changed proportions, different eyes) and WoT Style (Shown in this video, proportions closer to OoT artwork and OoT 3D) for you to choose. - As mentioned above, the Link mod (alongside Navi and a fairy pack later on) will release in the near future, including a custom boat, most likely Epona-themed. The Navi actor will receive updates to her behavior post-release. The maps and other extras shown here will release when more work is completed to connect them if not create a mod pack themed around them. - This is not an OoT mod, nor is it "fake" or an animation. It is a a WW mod. - There is no Adult Link as of right now, that is impossible to add for various reasons. However, it is something that is being looked at for the future. The Master Sword uses a mix of the WW and OoT design, it is not simply the WW Master Sword as the project idea was not meant to just take from WW's elements. - There are no plans to fully remake OoT in WW's engine; that is a ridiculous amount of work that would require a lot of custom coding, assets and testing. Unless I were to have a large and dedicated team to work with, it is unrealistic to expect any large-scale fan project that would be fully-complete. - For any minor nitpicks / flaws, please remember that this was made in exactly two weeks with very little sleep and not much feedback during development, so I did not have much time to do any polishing or experimenting. - The reason why this was done in WW and not TP is simply because I'm the main modder for WW, and TP does not currently have the same modding capabilities. And despite preferring TP as a game, WW's style is a lot more charming which makes it more fun and malleable to work with. - And I can't believe I have to say this, but for anyone saying this came out on April 2nd instead of April 1st, timezones exist. I have to edit this once again because of the unneeded large amount of annoying comments regarding this. In my region I posted the video at 10 PM on April 1st, and it premiered at 10:30 PM. I really shouldn't have to detail this any further. Thank you all for the overwhelming support! It means a lot.
I mean, a remake of OOT in WW engine would be awesome, but honestly an OOT asset pack for WW is almost as cool? So thanks for making the prank not actually hurt!
Will this mod pack actually allow us to play the adventure of OoT in WW's engine through this Wind Waker Mod? Or was that just apart of the joke? If this mod really is OoT in WW's engine, that would be great! I'd really love to play this mod if that's the case. WW and OoT are two of my top favorite Zelda games! Please at least consider the possibility of making this a full mod of sorts. It doesn't have to have it's own story or anything, but I'd think it'd be nice if this was recreation of Ocarina of Time's story and adventure but since it's with Wind Waker's gameplay engine and mechanics to work with, it could be it's own take on OoT's story with Wind Waker like twists. Maybe an abridged parody version, sort of like what I believe Ura Zelda likely was going to be for OoT according to how Miyamoto described it once.
WOW OMG! This is ART. I really would like to play that game. Please let us know when it gets published in the future. No need to rush, I can wait the whole 2021... but I really love the idea & the proof of concept of the Trailer. Congratulations!
April Fools or not, gotta love the amount of effort put into this, and is a good demonstration of what's possible with mods these days and just how far we can push the limits.
This music was actually composed for the Wind Waker sequel that turned into Twilight Princess. It can be heard in the 2005 E3 demo main menu. So it's literally perfect for this video.
@@Spaceman2921 where the fuck did you get that impression from? What's with your zero chance? It's pretty unlikely that the project gets dropped, dude...
@@marinellovragovic1207 Zero is about the general success rate of Ocarina of Time fan remakes, among other games. MGS 1, Chrono Trigger, Mario 64, RE1-2 etc...All tried and all failed. I'm just reciting the numbers.
Yeah, I’ve always wanted to play OOT, but because I was born the year it was made and I didn’t start playing games till around 2003-2004, I don’t really have any nostalgia for N64 graphics. So it’s kinda hard for me to appreciate what many consider to be the best game of all time. There’s some major limitations, due to it being a pioneer of all 3D games, and the graphical style hasn’t aged particularly well, but that said, if this game was reimagined from the ground up and they kept the story the same, but rebuilt the world of Hyrule to be more lively and populated with more things to do, plus a better art style, and more QOL improvements, then I’m sure I’d be super into it!
Nintendo:and believe us we dont have anything to say about it now stop emulating our games before we make you spend another 60 bucks on super mario sunshine.
Sorry, but my HPTC console plays brand new Switch games BETTER than Nintendo’s actual hardware, and in 4K UHD and 60 FPS. I’ll just keep “emulating” them until they make a REAL CONSOLE again and not a secondary console with gimmicks like motion controls or tablet controllers.
For those who write nasty comments, maybe you should understand how much work is put into these things with one person (BSZ) doing almost all the work. He tries to outsource to others but 9 times out of 10, he has to do it himself. If you want to lend a hand, by all means talk to him. Otherwise instead of acting like a ass, appreciate what he has come out with. Amazing mods, fantastic romhacks he has done. Other videos he has made on his channel. He is a talented individual. Instead of putting him down for what he hasn't done, appreciate what he has. Food for thought. Awesome job BSZ. I love it and cannot wait to see the future of this romhack :)
@@ultra5538 there was one but it was hidden away before I could finish posting what I said. So I just generalized it as future reference for anyone that does come in with negativitity.

@@Archway_ i already stated in a reply that my comment was made towards another comment that was hidden before I finished posting this. So I generalized it to everyone instead. Well anyone with negative comments towards BSZ and his work because there are many that do
I hate to say this, but as much as I want a chrono trigger remake, it seems less likely to exist, but I did recall that the creator of this video might potentially make this trailer into a real mod pack that you can play, so don’t give up just yet Icarus, because potentially in a few years time it can exist, for all play mods of wind waker on pc. 😃👍
@@FJLC93 he needs a team and funding. Alot of us want this really badly, and if he alone made this much progress I wouldn’t be surprised to see the rest of the game.
We were so mad about the art direction when Wind Waker was revealed, but damn this makes me appreciate it so much. Almost feels like OOT should have had this art style.
I just now learned that Wind Waker has a modding scene. Your Vacation Link mod is incredible, a complete overhaul with that theme would be the best thing ever.
And I'm heartbroken. This is amazing. I thought it was an insanely well done reskin of OoT but a mod of WW like this would truly be a spectacle of modding. I also never knew how much I would love a WW texture overhaul for OoT
If Nintendo made a second quest for the Windwaker engine (even the GC version, so not necessarily HD) today , I'd pay full new game price for it. It's nuts that this only really happened with Majora's mask and Capcom doing the Oracle games. Great that they are utilising the BotW engine for a direct sequel however
Same if this ever got released I'd totally pay $60 for it. The fact you did this alone in 2 weeks is incredible. I'd love to see what you could do with even a small team of 15-20 ppl
@@sparrow_solas that's such bullshit honestly. They should instead pay him to take his genius idea that would sell stupid well and then just make it. Fuck. I don't get it
Its still super funny that people hated windwaker for having a more cartoony style but now that is the most used style for zelda games and looks fucking great
I’ve always wondered, If I were head of Nintendo, and my goal was to make as much money as possible…and crossovers like this are being made by fans… WHY WOULDN’T WE DO IT OURSELVES? It blows my mind that Nintendo saw someone create an amazing Majora’s Mask HD trailer and they didn’t move mountains to make that happen? Can they afford it? Yes. Do we want it? Yes. Will they make millions in profit? Yes. So why won’t Nintendo do it? Because they don’t feel like it.
The longer you stick around the amazingly dedicated Nintendo homebrewing scene, the more you start to realize just how much of its best content is simply good ideas that Nintendo has decided to not do. If Nintendo simply did the things that we wanted, the homebrew scene would be basically dead.
Ideas are easy, accomplishing them is hard, Wind Waker HD sold millions and Breath of The Wild sold ten times more. The problem is that Nintendo game studios are constantly busy putting the next big thing on the shelves and it's taking them years longer than before as development times have exploded across the industry. They simply don't have the resources to follow on every good idea out there. Now of course they could outsource it, but they are extremely untrustful of licensing to other companies and those games would also be in competition with their owns as only so many major titles can enter the market at any given time. Now that doesn't necessarily mean they won't do at least some of those ideas. They did for example a re-release of the 3D Mario trilogy that was long overdue (though it is now back into the Nintenvault) and a remake of Metroid 2 by MercurySteam. I severely doubt they'll never release again versions of OoT and MM. However releasing a proper remake like Toys for Bob did with Crash and Spyro is a full project that would take years and a large dedicated team. Again they may or may not do it in the future and have most likely already seriously considered doing it, but this is not something they can simply snap they fingers to make happen.
@@bk7064 Well The Wind Waker takes place after Ocarina of Time it shares the same villain, and It's intro is the story of Ocarina of Time. Not to mention that the game mentions Ocarina of Time a lot.
BigSharkZ...now that's a name I've not heard in a LONG TIME (brawl mod vet) glad to see you still at it lol this is FANTASTIC!! can't wait for the full release
Tell me about it! I always wanted Paper Zelda and Paper Sonic (classic or adventure) a la TTYD. At the very least a playable version of Paper Luigi! I remember way back in the mid 2000s dreaming about OoT and MM characters and enemies rendered in the WW style lol I figured someone would do it one day! How about a 3D Earthbound with a Smash Bros. aesthetic?
That was outstanding! As someone who has played both games countless times over the years the idea of melding two like that is amazes me. Great proof of concept bro!:)
i browser bookmarked this video over a year ago so that i wouldnt miss it if you actually pulled it off. now im back for the first time checking for any updates, thanks for the info in the comment edits! Super exciting, i hope you perchance cross paths with that "large and dedicated team to work with" sometime in the future. awesome work, im a fan!
Imagine a remaster in this style for the switch and when you become adult link the style completely changes and becomes like a HD version of twilight princess :D
Yes, I know it's an April 1st prank but the hard work they put into making this trailer just makes me so happy! Seeing OOT in a unique style that changes the whole feel of the game, especially taking inspiration from the art style of Wind Waker just looks so freaking cool! AAHHHH ITS SO COOL I LOVE IT
@@liukang3545 Sorry, I didn't realize all the other zelda games were also cel shaded and thus the art direction of Wind Waker didn't use a new approach to iterating on a classic nintendo character. Thank you for this amazing reply. My brain is truly expanded.
God I want this to be a thing so BAD. But I have to say. Regardless of that, this is incredibly impressive! The level of detail is absolutely mind blowing.
This is legit man. This model for Link is immediately one of my favorites. It's such a perfect blend of OoT and WW. I'd love to actually run though these sections shown in the trailer, even if nothing really happens within them.
This looks amazing! I know the project as seen in the trailer was meant to be an April Fools joke, but please make this concept as seen in this trailer a reality! I've already fallen in love with this fan project! Please feel free to take your time with this project to make this concept a reality! I really want to get to enjoy this mod someday!
So, if I understood this correctly, it's The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, but it uses The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker as the base game. This is a truly interesting mod. 🎮:3
It's amazing how much progress you've made since you shared this video. Adult Link playing on the Ocarina, Adult Zelda, Ganondorf being changed to Ganon. You sir are amazing!
This is beautiful. A while back, I tried making a version of Wind Waker’s Hyrule in Blender that combined the islands of the great sea with the world below. Looked kind of like this. Seeing this makes me want to finish it
A lot of dedication for an April Fool's prank! Props to you! This looks really cool and a full, or abridged, version of WoT would no doubt be very popular. Though I can't do it myself, I know how much work goes into modding so whatever you can show is very appreciated. I don't think anyone would blame you if you can't release a complete mod. Good luck in your future endeavors!
Wow, this is amazing, even if this will never be fully made into a mod the dedicated to this is fantastic. With all the recent work with the decomp team on oot i have seen some impressive mods with oot, i hope one day that there will be a decomp of wind waker so that we can one day take ww to its full modding potential, just imagine the possibility for a full oot mod with the ability to become adult link, it just blows my mind to think that one day it will be possible. Anyway i love the mod showcase even if it is just a concept and not going to be a full thing.

I’ve always wondered, If I were head of Nintendo, and my goal was to make as much money as possible…and crossovers like this are being made by fans… WHY WOULDN’T WE DO IT OURSELVES?
It blows my mind that Nintendo saw someone create an amazing Majora’s Mask HD trailer and they didn’t move mountains to make that happen? Can they afford it? Yes. Do we want it? Yes. Will they make millions in profit? Yes. So why won’t Nintendo do it? Because they don’t feel like it.
The longer you stick around the amazingly dedicated Nintendo homebrewing scene, the more you start to realize just how much of its best content is simply good ideas that Nintendo has decided to not do. If Nintendo simply did the things that we wanted, the homebrew scene would be basically dead.
Ideas are easy, accomplishing them is hard, Wind Waker HD sold millions and Breath of The Wild sold ten times more. The problem is that Nintendo game studios are constantly busy putting the next big thing on the shelves and it's taking them years longer than before as development times have exploded across the industry. They simply don't have the resources to follow on every good idea out there. Now of course they could outsource it, but they are extremely untrustful of licensing to other companies and those games would also be in competition with their owns as only so many major titles can enter the market at any given time.
Now that doesn't necessarily mean they won't do at least some of those ideas. They did for example a re-release of the 3D Mario trilogy that was long overdue (though it is now back into the Nintenvault) and a remake of Metroid 2 by MercurySteam. I severely doubt they'll never release again versions of OoT and MM. However releasing a proper remake like Toys for Bob did with Crash and Spyro is a full project that would take years and a large dedicated team. Again they may or may not do it in the future and have most likely already seriously considered doing it, but this is not something they can simply snap they fingers to make happen.
Nintendo seem to just hate all their fans I really dont get them at all haha
@@mythosinfinite6736 no truer words have been spoken
it's almost like Nintendo is on the other end of the spectrum when compared to Bethesda
You're imagining that the N64 had Gamecube's power. Bravo... Nice work
This feels kinda great because Wind Waker and Ocarina of Time are connected
Are they really? I've never actually fully completed Ocarina of Time before lol.
@@bk7064 Well The Wind Waker takes place after Ocarina of Time it shares the same villain, and It's intro is the story of Ocarina of Time. Not to mention that the game mentions Ocarina of Time a lot.
They are both Zelda games
@@bk7064 literally every zelda game is connected to ocarina, its basically the center of the timeline
no joke this looks incredible
Bro i have never seen a guy to retexture almost EVERY damn texture and doing it look nice. You ascended to another level for a april fool.
You ever see something that you never knew you needed til you saw it...damn you April o Neil
Only 2 weeks to make this!? That's super impressive!
The wind waker version on saria is SO adorable
This is really cool! I love the Malon addition too. I always wanted the Sages to be playable in OoT but she’s just as good!
Hyrule Warriors is the next best thing, even though you unfortunately can't explore Hyrule in that game.
'Welcome to the Kingdom of Toonrule. Warning: Cuccos are just as dangerous. Harass at own risk.'
The Wind Waker/Ocarina mashup style looks SOOOO good! I want to see an art book of everything more than a game!
BigSharkZ...now that's a name I've not heard in a LONG TIME (brawl mod vet)
glad to see you still at it lol this is FANTASTIC!! can't wait for the full release
Most work I've seen put into an April fools day joke! Very nice!
Okay, this is actually the best thing in the world. No exaggeration. Nothing can top this. This is peak, nothing will ever be as great.
this and that paper zelda ... will haunt me for never existing
Tell me about it! I always wanted Paper Zelda and Paper Sonic (classic or adventure) a la TTYD. At the very least a playable version of Paper Luigi! I remember way back in the mid 2000s dreaming about OoT and MM characters and enemies rendered in the WW style lol I figured someone would do it one day! How about a 3D Earthbound with a Smash Bros. aesthetic?
@@theKyuubiKunai 100000% give me
I would absolutely pay money for this mod.
I feel like with that custom 3d models update on Ship of Harkinian, that could be possible
OoT in TWW style low-key looks awesome
That was outstanding! As someone who has played both games countless times over the years the idea of melding two like that is amazes me. Great proof of concept bro!:)
Man, you really went all out for this April fools joke.
All the models and textures look amazing.
i browser bookmarked this video over a year ago so that i wouldnt miss it if you actually pulled it off. now im back for the first time checking for any updates, thanks for the info in the comment edits! Super exciting, i hope you perchance cross paths with that "large and dedicated team to work with" sometime in the future. awesome work, im a fan!
Love what you did with this! Really cool, and it makes all the fans seethe with what could've been!
Excellent work!
Imagine a remaster in this style for the switch and when you become adult link the style completely changes and becomes like a HD version of twilight princess :D
that idea is so stupid, I asume you are like 5yo
@@kokomolucian tHaT iDeA iS So sTuPiD
@@1unisol1 go to kindergarden kid
@@kokomolucian it is a cool idea, tour a kid, everything is bright and cool, when you are an adult, everything becomes dark and grim.
@@Awsomememes it wouldn't work, videogame design is more complicated than that
Yes, I know it's an April 1st prank but the hard work they put into making this trailer just makes me so happy! Seeing OOT in a unique style that changes the whole feel of the game, especially taking inspiration from the art style of Wind Waker just looks so freaking cool! AAHHHH ITS SO COOL I LOVE IT
its not unique lol its called cel shading
@@liukang3545 Sorry, I didn't realize all the other zelda games were also cel shaded and thus the art direction of Wind Waker didn't use a new approach to iterating on a classic nintendo character. Thank you for this amazing reply. My brain is truly expanded.
God I want this to be a thing so BAD. But I have to say. Regardless of that, this is incredibly impressive! The level of detail is absolutely mind blowing.
my first thought was this is.... lovely. no other word for it. then the Malon co-op bit came and it hurt. Amazing.
Oh wow, this is great, you did an amazing job on this!
This is legit man. This model for Link is immediately one of my favorites. It's such a perfect blend of OoT and WW. I'd love to actually run though these sections shown in the trailer, even if nothing really happens within them.
This looks amazing! I know the project as seen in the trailer was meant to be an April Fools joke, but please make this concept as seen in this trailer a reality! I've already fallen in love with this fan project! Please feel free to take your time with this project to make this concept a reality! I really want to get to enjoy this mod someday!
This is truly a work of art bro! Thank you for creating this and sharing, awesome work and I look forward to the day this releases! 10/10
Yeah, I felt the smell of opening OoT for the first time back in the day. This is ridiculously beautiful, man that was truly great!
Hooly WOW, these models look great! The windwaker-ized style you have on show here is just incredible.
How can something be so cursed yet so beautiful at the same time?
This is gonna be huge when it releases. Amazing Work
I know this is only an April Fool's, but legit need this in my life.
So, if I understood this correctly, it's The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, but it uses The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker as the base game. This is a truly interesting mod. 🎮:3
It's amazing how much progress you've made since you shared this video. Adult Link playing on the Ocarina, Adult Zelda, Ganondorf being changed to Ganon. You sir are amazing!
Where can I see all of this?
Someone get this man a full-fledged team so that they could make this into a real thing for the love of all that is holy in this world.
This just makes me want to have an overhaul of the entire LOZ franchise.
The Wind Waker art style is surprisingly a good fit for OoT
I never knew that I needed Malon running around carrying a scarecrow on a stick in my life.
You've actually done a really good job of this. It's infinitely better than the other Wind Waker packs out there.
This is bloody awesome. So wonderfully and accurately reimagined. Congrats!
This is beautiful. A while back, I tried making a version of Wind Waker’s Hyrule in Blender that combined the islands of the great sea with the world below. Looked kind of like this. Seeing this makes me want to finish it
I know I'm a year late but go for it!
@@Aluriiipicked up that project on a new account - been posting here!
Error 404: Adult Link and Sheik not found
This is basically the translation of the events of Ocarina of Time, in the adult timeline.
Man the redead turning around was hilariously terrifying they look really good with the oot masks.
I love how the Kokiri Forest look in this
A lot of dedication for an April Fool's prank! Props to you! This looks really cool and a full, or abridged, version of WoT would no doubt be very popular.
Though I can't do it myself, I know how much work goes into modding so whatever you can show is very appreciated. I don't think anyone would blame you if you can't release a complete mod. Good luck in your future endeavors!
This is so weird, I had a thought once that OoT would look great in WW art style. And it does
I take that little fairy remark as a micro aggression lol
I'm not even mad of this April's fool. Man this was a fun video. Kudos for the amazing work.
All this effort shows this can be done and how much work is put into these mods, good job
Man I respect you like my grandfather
Wow, this is amazing, even if this will never be fully made into a mod the dedicated to this is fantastic. With all the recent work with the decomp team on oot i have seen some impressive mods with oot, i hope one day that there will be a decomp of wind waker so that we can one day take ww to its full modding potential, just imagine the possibility for a full oot mod with the ability to become adult link, it just blows my mind to think that one day it will be possible. Anyway i love the mod showcase even if it is just a concept and not going to be a full thing.
My dad's band in the 1960s was named the Winds of Time.They performed around Anchorage. Very cool!
Wow! It looks surprisingly pleasant! Well done!
Gotta say it was put together beautifully wouldn't mind a remake done like this
This is something I think we would all want to play.
this looks gorgeous man
This is way better than the Unreal 4K one
Unreal Engine could do a good OoT upscale but most of these 4K remasters screwed the original art style...
@@ikagura you get it
Literally my favorite zelda game combined with my favorite zelda artstyle
