A modern, high-resolution top-screen HUD and C-stick free camera for the USA, European, Japanese, Taiwanese, and Korean releases of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D.
The HUD brings the Project Restoration style to OoT3D: ABXY in a diamond, live item assignments, the changing action prompt, D-pad shortcuts, hearts, magic, and rupees, all rendered through the game's native interface. The patch leaves OoT3D's gameplay, progression, inventory rules, and save format unchanged.

| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| D-pad Left | Touchscreen item I |
| D-pad Down | Touchscreen item II |
| D-pad Up | Navi / View |
| D-pad Right | Ocarina |
| ZL | Hide/show the minimap |
| Select | Open the Items screen |
| C-stick | Free camera |
| Hold L + R + ZR | Cycle HUD size: 75%, 100%, 125%, Off |
| L + R + D-pad Up/Down | Adjust camera sensitivity |
| L + R + D-pad Left/Right | Change camera inversion |
Unassigned I or II slots remain blank. Hold L+R+ZR without pressing another button to change the HUD size. The L+R camera-settings chord takes priority over gameplay D-pad actions.
Download the package matching your game region from Releases. Each region has a normal emulator mod and a self-contained ROM patch.
- Download the regional Mod ZIP.
- Extract the ZIP and merge its
loadfolder into the Azahar or Citra user-data directory. - Enable Use Custom Textures in the emulator's graphics settings.
- Restart the emulator and launch the game normally.
Existing unrelated texture packs can remain installed, but do not combine Ocarina Reframed with
another code.ips patch for the same title. See INSTALL.md for the regional title IDs
and complete folder paths.
The Mod ZIP is intended only for emulators that support the included custom-texture replacement. Do not install it through Luma3DS.
- Download and extract the regional ROM Patch ZIP.
- Open Rom Patcher JS.
- Select a clean, legally obtained, decrypted
.3dsor.ccidump matching the region and revision listed in the included README. - Select the included
.xdeltafile and apply the patch. - Save the resulting ROM, add it to Azahar or Citra, and launch it normally.
Xdelta patches require the exact original ROM specified by the package. Encrypted, previously modified, or mismatched dumps will not work. Disable the separate Ocarina Reframed mod-folder installation when using a patched ROM so the mod is not applied twice. Back up save data before testing any modified ROM.
Do not use the Mod ZIP on original hardware. Its HUD artwork relies on Azahar/Citra custom-texture replacement, which Luma3DS does not load in that format. Applying only its code patch could leave HUD graphics missing or malformed.
Instead, use the regional ROM Patch ZIP above. The resulting ROM contains the required code and
HUD resources together. Original-hardware operation has not yet been validated by this project, so
use a compatible method for launching a legally dumped, decrypted, patched .3ds or .cci file,
and keep a backup of the original ROM and save data.
