GZLE01, revision 0), as an.isoor.gcm. A Dolphin.rvzmust first be converted to ISO in Dolphin: right-click the game, Convert File, format ISO. - BlueWake is not signed, so Windows may say it protected your PC: choose More info, then Run anyway.
- The download contains the recompiled game code, but no disc image, game assets or saves. Play it from a disc you own.
Mac, iPhone and iPad: build your own from your disc with PadMint, below or in the README. No prebuilt app with game code is provided for these.
BlueWake 0.1.0 for iPhone and iPad: The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, running natively. The app below contains no game code: you make the game part yourself with PadMint on an Apple Silicon Mac, from your own disc. Nothing from your disc is uploaded.
What you need

PadMint.command(the first time, macOS asks you to allow it in System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway). - Choose BlueWake and drag in your disc image. PadMint downloads
BlueWake-v0.1.0-ios-unsigned.ipabelow, checks it, builds your game module from your disc and adds it. The first build takes well over an hour; it tunes the game on your Mac. - Install the IPA PadMint saves with your sideloading tool, over an existing BlueWake to keep your saves, then copy the same disc image to the device (Files › BlueWake). The IPA contains code made from your disc: keep it to yourself.
Without the module, the app opens and shows "Translated game code: Missing".
