For Gates of Darkness I'll both edit Link and Zelda sprites this weekend and I'd like your opinion on the best ones:

1.) Link custom sheet from Dark Link:



2.) Link sheet from Z3 - Four Swords:



and now as for Zelda:

1.) Zelda custom sheet from Kyle:



2) Zelda from Z3 - Four Swords:



As for me, I'd be really loooking forward Four Sword ones... well what do you think ?

I think the four swords link would look a lot better in the hack, and would be more original, considering no one has tried them yet in a hack. The same goes for the Zelda sprites. However it might not fit in with the other characters on the game, such as sharashala, villagers etc. unless you rip those from four swords too. (I havent played FS yet, but im guessing there are other characters/villagers on that game)

Thanks for the feedback! Well yeah I could put them in the game. Also the thing is that I intent to change not only the sprites but the GFX aswell, would'nt it be nice to have new stuff around instead of the old ones ? How about cameo appearances ? Like introduce characters from other games (As long as it would fit in the story lol)? I once modified the sprite of the bunny from the dark world into Mario itself, was good to teleport and change into mario, however that was only for testing purposes...

I'll say this once, I don't mind if you use all the sprites you find; even if I use Link 4 Swords sprites that doesn't mean you don't have the right to use them; and since there's a so little number of people working on Zelda 3.. Helping each other is almost doing something valuable to the Z3 hacking community.. I guess..

EDIT: BTW, the hard job will be to convert them into a LTTP HM format, so I'll do so then send em' to you ? What do you say?

I'd personally go for the Four Swords version of the graphics, unless you wanted to keep it relatively close to what style of what the original LttP was...but then this would definitely make it a lot different and more unique of a hack if you used Four Swords version, not necessarily for originality...but considering the majority of the sprite edits I've seen are pretty much changing minor features on Link, this would definitely set it apart from the rest...

...and if this hack of yours gets any sweeter I think I'm going to die in anticipation.

http://ootsquared.sphosting.com/sprites2.htm -> Some really good open source custom sprites!

http://openzelda.sourceforge.net/list/sprites/ -> Some custom sprites LTTP Style...

And while we're on the subject, a tingle sprite for the target room!


Of course there is a bunch more, but that should be enough good as for now... A good idea, would be to take bosses from other games and make them available in Z3!...

What I definitely want to make is not only new dungeons/overworlds, but also completely new graphics; that's part of the hacking process I guess. As for Link, I've finally mastered a way that will make colors exactly the same as Link from 4 swords.. Due to the 16 colors only (on screen as for the sprites/GFX blocks) limitations of LTTP, I had to find each RGB (Red, Green, Blue) of each color the 4 sword sprite used... So doing that, the sprite will look exactly the same as if you were playing 4 swords!

And, I'm not responsible for people dieing because they are impatiently waiting for my hack j/k.. Anyway if the anticipation is too big, consider, I've been waiting so long to play a finished hack myself, no one would release one, so I decided (without any hacking knowledge...) to make a Z3 hack... With full of determination, I tried my best to be of a great help to the Z3 community, thus the FAQ and the hack

As of now, I edited all the head animations and a few body ones... more screens later.

I actually prefer the Dark Link set over the four swords one... but I wouldnt mind playing with four swords GFX if thats what you have chosen.

The edit looks great anyways

The desire to hack Zelda 3 is as high as it has ever been, and just as tempting and fun. Hyrule Magic's bugs and reputation for borking a hack in progress has kept most people at bay unfortunately. It is such a great game, and so much can be done with it.

[graphics whore] Hacked graphics = happy Chickenlump [/graphics whore]

The Four Swords Link looks very nice. Me like.

wow i wouldn't expect the 4 swords sprites actually fits in alttp.

I was thinking about ripping link's gfx from the oracles instead (with a few minor touches of course)

heh gfx isn't my strong point, so i'll probably end up just changing a few palettes

How about...

http://ootsquared.sphosting.com/unfinishedsprites/poes3.gif

I think it would be cool to have Link turn into a poe! And it would fit too, considering bunny link can't do anything anyway.

Lol, i dont think u should change the bunny, or at least, keep it as some sort of bunny.

Keep in mind, the bunny sprite is most likely the same thoroughtout the entire game, so u change one, u change all.

It would be a simple sprite hack though, cause all u have to do is walk.
