Fritchii

Getting started

Fritchii’s short README has no setup tutorial. Download, executable and shader-preparation details come from the v5.6 release notes; system-file and input setup comes from its inherited Eden Quick Start.

1. Get the Windows application archive

   Choose the Windows-x64.zip application asset from Fritchii Releases, not GitHub’s Source code archives. The v5.6 notes say to extract the archive and run lichii.exe inside the Fritchii folder.

2. Set up system files and input

   The inherited Windows guide calls for the Visual C++ runtime and your own console-dumped files. Use Tools → Install Decryption Keys and Tools → Install Firmware, add your game directory, then map input under Emulation → Configure → Input. Menu names can differ in the current UI.

3. Allow shader preparation to finish

   When starting Ocarina of Time, current release notes describe a Preparing shaders stage before play. v5.6 can rebuild it once even after an earlier version; the author estimates about 15 minutes on an eight-core CPU. A new GPU or driver can also trigger preparation.

4. Update or report a problem

   The v5.6 notes say v4–v5.5 offer an update when opened. For problems, use Help → Export Log and include your GPU model in the issue report. Review the latest release notes for changes to these steps.
