Its been a while since there has been an update, and i have some good news, and some even better news!

The good news being that we have created a trailer for you all to enjoy. Now, what could possibly be better than that you ask? Well, our coder has mastered the event system in LTTP, so we will truely be creating an origional hack. This gives us unlimited flexibility with the story, which is quite nice. This of course will take more time though, so Dark Prophecy has been pushed back from this summer to a tentative release date of xmas 05.




Now, without further delay, i give you:

The Legend of Zelda: Dark Prophecy Official Trailer

http://www.savefile.com/files/8610556
- Best enjoyed full screen with an obscene volume
Enjoy

PS, here is another video for your enjoyment. Its dungeon only though.

http://www.savefile.com/files.php?fid=4107067

A few notes about the videos. We made a concious choice to not include any of the new gfx in the videos. We want to save them for the final release. Also, the second video is mainly from the same dungeon, so it does not reflect the whole game, just a very small portion of it. The dungeons in Dark Prophecy are quite varried in style and layout.

That was the coolest thing ever. I love the music, I cant wait to see some new graphics (although I thought I saw something...) this will fufill my wait for Twilight Princess. Honestly, this is one of the best things I have ever seen. I can't wait. This is worth a release push back!

Thanks guys. Its really great to have support. If there are any questions, ill do my best to answer them. Ask away.

As for those who just download and watch, please leave feedback. We spent a long time on these videos, and a post detailing what you thought of it isnt much to ask in return.

Metal?

And yes, the video was incredible. And heck, I think people should release trailers like this of their rom hacks over demo's.

Seriously, this looks amazing though. I remember helping you guys out with ideas back on TEK months and months ago (although it wasn't this game, it's like I worked with you guys ... well, somewhat), and I know you guys are completely motivated for this. It's been a wait, but the wait will be well worth it.

Keep it up, this could very well be one of the best rom hacks ever.

^^ Heh, the second video has a metal soundtrack. The music from the official trailer is actually from Baiten Kaitos. I found it last night at like 4am, and i knew i had to use it. I had 2 previous versions before this one.

Dudeman had been bugging me to make this video for months, so i finally decided to do it. Dudeman only had dungeon footage, cause i hadnt made any overworld stuff yet, so he decided to make his own video with just the dungeon footage. Later on that evening i made the LW footage myself, and put it together. I think i finished at about 7:15 am. I think it turned out well though, so im happy.

And, yes, trailers instead of demo's is a great idea. I mean, this trailer only took me like 8 hours in total including capturing the footage. It would probably take me 25 hours minimuim to put together a DP demo. Things change when your looking at a game like SMW though.

I'll look at the trailer tomorrow, since it's a little late here right now. Yeah, SMW trailers don't take long at all, when it comes to video capture and all that... I should make one for COTMK 1 *runs off*

Seriously though, quite awesome. I honestly can't wait to see what else you have in store for us, and with the event code cracked, seems you can be very creative in how the game flows and such. Oh, and the music rules

I knew someone was going to comment on the playing. It was me playing for the overworld sequences, and dudeman during the dungeon stuff. I wasnt trying to play well, i was trying to capture footage, which is more complicated than it seems.

Anyways, thanks for the compliments.

Nice dungeon designs/overworld designs you guys have there. This project is getting as many delays as Ocarina of Time back in the day (which is a good thing, sicne this means the hack will be even more bad ass when it emerges on to the scene). Take as much time as you need to make sure things are perfect.

Heh, you'd probably have a heart attack watching me play LttP then. I am -always- dashing. It always feels so weird starting a new game and not having my good ol' Pegasus boots.

I like how you kept out the new graphics also, nice advertising / hype builder you guys are.

Summed up in one word: Bitchin'

I love the dungeon design some of those boss rooms look great. The overworld is good but im a little worried about the square / straightline layout of particular bits (for example the cliffs in some scenes). Make them a bit more natural looking.

This is helpful criticism so dont take it as im saying your works shit...which it blatantly isnt. Also im sure none of this is the final product so im sure things look very different in the end anyway.

Keep it up...im looking forward to bustin out the old LTTP skills!
