AYN Odin Pro: Zelda Texture Packs, Trials of Mana, New Thumb Grips

Today we're looking at a few different Hi-Res texture packs for Majora's Mask, A Link Between Worlds and Twilight Princess. Also, I finally have Trials of Mana on this device and show that works perfectly fine too. And since I did it recently I show my new thumb grips, it's very simple to do yourself and the old caps will go back on just fine if you're worried about that.

00:00 - Intro and New Thumb Grips
01:04 - Majora's Mask 1080p Textures (3x)
06:15 - A Link Between Worlds 1080p Textures (3x)
10:20 - Twilight Princess 1080p Textures (1080)
16:52 -Trials of Mana
22:50 - ScummVM CD/DOS
24:59 - End

Thumbgrips - Just search Vita Thumb Grips on Amazon or eBay and you'll find some (apologies I kept using the word stick like you gotta replace the whole thing, it's literally a rubber cap you peel off).
Texture Packs: https://www.henrikomagnifico.com/text...
(Like I said in the video, click whichever one you want and it'll take you to a Patreon page. Find the most recent post for the game you want the textures for, a link will be at the bottom of the post where you can download 1080p versions of the textures from google drive or a mirror).
For Citra MMJ: Place your textures in: citra-emu/load/textures/(GAME ID FOLDER) [you'll have to look up the Game ID for your game depending on region]
Majora's Mask Project Restoration: https://restoration.zora.re/
XnConvert - https://www.xnview.com/en/xnconvert/
(This is the batch converter I used to convert all the DDS texture files from the Twilight Princess texture pack to PNG, MMJR is not going to recognize DDS. You can then put those textures in Load/Textures/GZ2E01, that last folder will change depending on the region of your ISO. This converter defaults the new files name as "{Filename}_Replace", make sure it only says "{Filename}" before you convert your files otherwise each file will have "_Replace" at the end and that won't work. And for your own sanity, zip up these textures and then unzip them on your Odin first, if you try to send all the textures from your pc to your Odin unzipped it will take forever).
Trials of Mana: So if you don't have a device that can purchase Trials of Mana from the Google Play store then you need to use Bluestacks https://www.bluestacks.com/download.html . Download the Pie 64-bit (Beta) version for PC. You also need to turn on Virtualization in your BIOS before you use this, here's a guide for both Intel and AMD chips https://support.bluestacks.com/hc/en-... . Now when you use Bluestacks, you can go to the Google Play store and purchase Trials of Mana (you may have to go into Bluestacks settings and change the device type to a more powerful one if you cannot). Now you own Trials of Mana, you can side load it to your device. You need the Aurora Store apk https://auroraoss.com/ then when you've installed it, open it up and go to Google Play in there, sign in and then download Trials of Mana to your device. And voila, that should be it and you can now play Trials of Mana. It's frustrating to do it this way, I even did try to contact Square-Enix to see if they would enable purchases from an Odin as the game does work but I don't think they ever will.
