About This File
🗡️ Zelda Ultima is finally making its debut on the forum!
NEW upload is DONE !
I wish it could have been easier, but I think this is a first — the servers just aren’t used to handling so many gigabytes. Uploading was a real nightmare.^^
I had to play it smart: splitting the files without creating too many parts, so you don’t get lost.
Because let’s be honest — if there were 36 files to install, nobody would actually go through with it.😄
✅🟩 FINAL STATUS: CHECK OK
🔹 Installation steps for Zelda Ultima
Dezip with 7zip only!
-
Create a Folder Zelda Ultima =Start with the first part: once unzipped, part of your Ultima will already begin to rebuild, and you’ll quickly find your bearings.
-
Then move on to the second part, and so on: step by step, everything will fall back into place.
⚠️ Note: you may see some error messages during extraction, but don’t worry — the files will still unzip correctly.
-
Final step – Zelda Final: this file was mistakenly placed inside a “Zelda Ultima” folder.
👉 You’ll need to manually extract its content:-
Place the .exe files and launch icons directly in the LaunchBox root folder.
-
Copy the small “Video” folder to the root as well — it contains the intro
-
🚨 WARNING – READ BEFORE INSTALLING!
⚠️ Follow the tutorial steps carefully.
Do not launch anything before installing:
✅ all the fonts
✅ your license
👉 Otherwise, here’s what will happen:
-
Intro, pause, and shutdown sequences will break
-
Fonts in LaunchBox will be wiped
-
All your settings will reset to zero
-
And the result will look… really ugly ^^
3) Create a special folder: “Fan Game and Remake Unreal”( ( (You can skip this step if you do not want to benefit from bonuses))
-
Place it inside your Games folder.
-
Extract individually inside it:
-
Fan Games Part 1
-
Fan Games Part 2
-
Remake Unreal
-
Temple of Time
-
It should look like this:
Games → Fan Game and Remake Unreal → (unzipped files)
4) Install the FONTS!
-
Go to the folder “BEFORE TO LAUNCH”.
-
Read the Tuto !!!!
-
Install all the fonts (this step is crucial).
⚠️ Without them, you’ll lose about 40% of the visual consistency and encounter bugs.
5) Final adjustments:
-
Install the HEVC codec to avoid black screens.
-
Copy and paste your license.
-
Disable updates (I stayed on version 13.21).
6) Useful controls:
🎮 R3 on the controller or V on the keyboard → switch the main theme (4 choices).
🎮 The very same control also lets you switch between the 12 different game views.
🎮 Back button → pause menu while in-game.
✨ That’s it! You’re ready to dive into Zelda Ultima.
Take your time, explore, enjoy…
and most importantly: share your feedback with me!
📜 Decree of Sharing — Zelda Ultima
⚔️ Hear me, wanderers.
I have received countless requests —
many from shadowed profiles, strangers from distant frontends.
Out of kindness, I granted them an alternate path,
a secret link to step inside this realm.
But after years of creation, after countless hours shaping this Ultima,
I asked for one simple tribute in return:
your voice, your feedback, your impressions.
Yet some are nothing but resource hunters,
unable to see the work as a whole.
Others don’t even launch the Ultima,
content with taking without ever exploring.
That is the least that honors this journey.
If you desire the sharing to continue,
if you want this adventure to live on,
then show me it is worth it.
⚡ Give me strength.
⚡ Give me reason.
⚡ And I shall share even more.
Thanks ! 
This is the oldest of my Ultima Editions, and the one that best captures the spirit of the entire project.
It’s been locked away for three years, and I finally offered it to the staff so it could be shared with the community!
I’m making a real effort to open things up a bit more —
It’s time people finally discover the work I’ve poured into this.
But I count on you to keep it clean, respectful, and above all... magical ✨
🎭 This project must not end up as a messy torrent after all these years of work.
We’re here to celebrate a passion, not to trash it.
🧰 What’s the Ultima format?
A fully standalone, all-in-one experience that immerses you in a single legendary universe—crafted with a level of detail and customization rarely seen.
It’s a digital collector’s dream, a tribute to iconic franchises like Zelda, Castlevania, Final Fantasy.
Imagine the ultimate fan-made box set—beautifully designed, completely free, and overflowing with nostalgic passion.
The goal behind the Ultima Editions is to bring digital games closer to the richness and charm of physical collections, which are becoming harder and harder to access (too rare, too expensive).
So I pack in as many bonuses as possible: artwork, music, cinematic intros, hidden content…
Each project, like Zelda Ultima, is built as a fully immersive collector’s experience.
🎁 What’s waiting for you inside?
🎨 A solid forty game themes, each evolving alongside my craft — polished, reworked, and bursting with character.
45 icons dedicated:
🖥️ 12 unique views — every slot filled, fully loaded, and ready to explore.
A pause menu ( with the world map )a shutdown and of course a start theme!
Most guides and encyclopedias have been converted into interactive flipbooks with animated backgrounds for maximum immersion.
(One classic guide — A Link to the Past — is included by default so you can test the format.)
🎮 Fan-Made Remakes
5 playable demos of Ocarina of Time remade in Unreal Engine 4 & 5.
Eye candy meets nostalgia.
🎧 Hey Listen!
A curated selection of iconic Zelda tracks and fan-made covers.
Turn it up — Hyrule never sounded this good.

! Before you launch anything:
-
Make sure your license is integrated (mandatory)
-
Install the HEVC codecs to avoid black screens

Install ALL the fonts — seriously, all of them — or some views might look totally broken
-

🛡️Credits: The Dream Team
Here’s a quick spotlight on some of the amazing people who’ve helped shape this journey:
🎼 Sam Dillard on music — because you don’t save Hyrule without a soundtrack that gives you chills.
🎨 @Bellhenge created most of the icons (which I lovingly upscaled, pixel by pixel).
🎮 CryZenXX has been following the project closely and definitely deserves a shrine in the fan-made section for his Ocarina of Time Unreal Engine demos.
👑 Henricko’s Magnifico — I even crafted special icons and themes to showcase his breathtaking 4K patches!
And of course, all the amazing contributors over the years — I’ve got a special thank-you video just for you. 💖
You’ve helped shape this dream, one sprite at a time.
A massive thank-you to @y2guru, the Architect of the Community creator—
Without him, none of this would have been possible.
Thanks to @Mr. RetroLust for his enormous work on the console bezel

Looking for something less cinematic and more classic with gameplay for your themes? I highly recommend @Suhrvivor post (perfect placement and harmony).
It's here:
A like, a share, maybe a virtual coffee?
Even Mario wouldn’t have saved the princess without a little help 🍄👑🎮
