OK, I really want to play some Z3 hacks, so what is there? I tried some that are on the front page, but they either arent there (Dodongos Gold) or the ZIP was corrupted (Iced Hyrule)

Iced Hyrule? Thats my hack Kinda fucked up though, It was my first attempt at Hyrule Magic and was kinda screwed right up...I remember I gave up on it and moved onto another Z3 hack, which Im still slowly working on.

Um, this is sort of a dumb question, but how do you change the gfx? I mean, how do you extract em'? I'm making a hack called Knuckle's Adventure. It's gonna be a complete overhaul. Can someone help me?

It's a command-line application. Bring up a command prompt (Start -> Accessories -> Command Prompt), navigate to the zcompress directory (I installed a simple tweak that allows me to right-click on any folder in Windows Explorer and get a command prompt for that directory), and use the correct parameters to use the program (which I presume is zcompress 0 nameofzeldaROM allgfx.bin).

yychr/TLP.

this is suppose to be a one word post.

oh well i'll put something else as well....

Magic shop items (how to change it internally):

Magic shop First Item:
$05/F803 - $05/F804 - 2 bytes - Minimum money to buy this item (little endian, Usually same as below)
$05/F822 - $05/F823 - 2 bytes - Price for Item (Little Endian), 3C 00 = 60.
$05/F82A - 1 byte - Item To Get (same as HM Treasure Chest Listing) = 2E (46, red potion)

Magic shop Middle Item:
$05/F6C1 - $05/F6C2 - 2 bytes - Minimum money to buy this item (little endian, Usually same as below)
$05/F6E0 - $05/F6E1 - 2 bytes - Price for Item (Little Endian), 3C 00 = 60.
$05/F6E9 - 1 byte - Item To Get (same as HM Treasure Chest Listing) = 2F (47, green potion)

Magic shop Last Item:
$05/F75E - $05/F75F - 2 bytes - Minimum money to buy this item (little endian, Usually same as below)
$05/F77D - $05/F77E - 2 bytes - Price for Item (Little Endian), 3C 00 = 60.
$05/F786 - 1 byte - Item To Get (same as HM Treasure Chest Listing) = 30 (48, blue potion)

I've already posted this elsewhere and I apologize if it's considered spam, but I figured I'd repost it here since this is sort of a General LttP Information Thread, and the info would probably last longer posted here than it would in my sprite priorty thread which is bound to drop off the board soon


Make Link Sink!


$009A - BG blend settings - set to 72 to enable sprite blending on BG2
6A129/0D:A128 - Link's sprite priority (before it gets chunked into RAM) - Change it from $20 to $18 to place him underneath BG2
3D7D8/07: D7D8 - Jump table for handling movement stuff. The pointer at D7E8 ($BCDC) points to the splash-into-water handler. The pointer at D852 ($9DDD) points to the walk-down-stairs handler.

To implement the hack, simply, change the blend settings in a savestate, Link's sprite priority in the rom, and the pointer for the splash-into-water handler to the walk-down-stairs handler.

Of course, to implement this stuff in a practical, useful way, you'd have to do a whole lot more, but it's kinda neat to see

Oh, and by the way, the OAM table is stored at $0800 in wram. Fun!

If you're using Snes9x, try Zsnes. Personally, I like the first one best, but for some odd reasons, the hacks don't work there. They work on Zsnes though, so you better try it. If that doesn't work either, you mus have patched the roms incorrectly.

This might be rather pointless, but just so "it's out there". If anyone needs an ips / rom hack hosted, I'd be more than happy to put out the offer out there.

PM me, if anyones ever interested. I've been with my server for almost a year now, and I've had no problems yet.

I guess it's just a helping hand to the community here.

Updated the Link's Sex Change hack. I smoothed out the animations. Here are the screens from before:




Note to SePh: I have a new link for altpgirl, please update it at the front.

And here's the link:

http://www.freewebs.com/beneficii/altpgirl.zip

This is version 1.1 btw.

Praises and constructive criticism are welcome.

For all you windows people here's a link to zerosoft. http://zerosoft.zophar.net His IPSWin patching utility is great and really simple to use. I highly recomend it.

Also I was just thinking, has anyone ever finished a zelda 3 hack (other than sprite hacks)? I don't mean to sound like a downer. I'm sure no one ever starts out with the intention of quiting, but I would like a completed Z3 hack to play for a change ;-) But to this day I haven't found one :-( Maybe some of you should team up if you start to get discouraged again. It might take some of the load off to know you've got someone backing you up and helping you solve any problems you run into. I'm sure all the team could learn from each others experiences too. Finnally has anyone heard from GameMakr24? His "Quest for Calatia" hack looked to be one of the most promising given his track record with "Outlands".

Dark Prophecy and the Gates of Time also seem to have potential.

Alright beneficii, I'll update the link.

And as for Killer Robot R, there are three hacks well underway for you to look out till the end of the year/early next, which are:

The Legend of Zelda - Tower of the Triforce
Euclid continued his demo he released last year and extended it to the full game. He have all overworlds/dungeons finished and have some really good challenges/designs.

The Legend of Zelda - Dark Prophecy
Omega who already released a demo a while back joined forces with a group of three dedicated hackers: He's doing the overworlds, while Dude Man is doing the dungeons, an unamed spriter and an unamed guy doing asm. So it's really probable for this one to be released.


The Legend of Zelda - Gates of Time
My hack, have worked on it since last year, been doing a great amount of progress. I sure wanted to cancel it often times before, but it finally seems like I'm going to release it once and for all, then retire from romhacking But until it's not finished, I'll keep on working on it.
