Hey, really enjoying the ZTP4K texture pack so far, aside from some random audio issues and stuttering upon new assets loading, which might just be an issue with my settings or something but anyways...

My item menu started looking like this a couple days ago and is basically stuck in "glitched out" mode. Note that even though the item that's actually at 12 o clock on the wheel is the boomerang, the boomerang icon appears at the lower right for whatever reason. I also don't think I've ever actually been able to get the lantern's "remaining oil" gauge to display properly (i.e. it's not empty like the UI says) but that isn't as big of an issue as the nonsense icons I have occurring on the item menu wheel.

Any ideas on what might be causing this and if/how it can be fixed?

Hi! I managed to find the solution whilst helping LGG with the problem earlier tonight. The solution is quite simple, but not obvious. I have updated the texture pack information page with instructions on how to do the fix, and here they are copied straight from there:

This error appears when your graphics card is not able to be initialised for use in Dolphin, which can result in several issues (including crashing, random texture corruption and other graphical features not working as intended). It is therefore highly recommended that you perform the following actions to fix the error before playing the game. Fixing it is a simple two-step process:

1. Select "Use Maximum performance" as the power management mode for ZTP4K.exe (the dolphin launch program inside of the corresponding texture pack folder) in the NVIDIA Control Panel program on your PC. Go into the nvidia control panel > Manage 3D settings > Program Settings tab > click "Add" and find the ZTP4K.exe file in the texture pack directory you use to play the texture pack. Then set the mode for power management in the list to "Prefer maximum performance"

2. On Windows 10 and newer, you must set the graphics mode for the exe in the Windows settings as well. Go to System > Display options > Graphics settings in the Windows settings and click the "Browse" button under the Desktop App list button and then select the correct texture pack ZTP4K.exe just like in the NVIDIA Control Panel. It should get added to the list of apps in the same menu. Now, click it in the list and then "Options" > Select the "High Performance" in the menu that appears. Done! Restart the emulator and the error should now be gone.
