Yo, I with the help of some guys made up a compiled FAQ to use with HM, I already posted this at TEK Hacks, but since not everyone goes there, I decided to post it here as well. The FAQ consists of 20 parts, each detailling everything (or almost) from A to Z... So even if you're a noob you might do something good too. Totallizing a total of 98 pages, each section has it's appropriate pictures...(A bunch of pictures) In case you're wondering the file is in PDF Format (Adobe Acrobat File) and is zipped (Winzip), so you will need both for the extraction/viewing. The files are hosted on geocities, so if the download links doesn't work, try again at a later time. Here are the links (Right-Click, save as...):

Mirror1: http://www.geocities.com/hyrulemagicfaq/HMFAQ11.zip
Mirror2: http://www.geocities.com/hmfaqmirror1/HMFAQ11.zip

I've hooked to that anime too, I've watch every single episode and read every bit of the manga, and just can't wait for more. I bought Part 1, 2 and 3 in DVD, and these got to be my fav anime since DBZ... since I'm not much of an anime fan, I've got to say that Naruto really surprised me, I mean everything fits perfect into it. The music, ambiance, battles... The original manga creator did a fine job aswell to put all these parts together. IMO it just fits perfect.

True, you really should improve your overworld first, as the world map is optional.. If ya wanna make changes, do the overworld first as the dungeon editor can be an arse sometimes. (You can copy overworlds from on rom to another while it's impossible for dungeons)... While editing, save often and always make backup copies. Editing overworld has to be the easiest thing of the editor IMO... still learning how to do the dungeons. If you want a rather big help on everything HM, I suggest you go download the compiled FAQ I put up in another thread.. as with it you'll be able to do better things then just "World Map Editing"...

Does that mean you haven't read the manga ? Yes, the Legendary Three battle will be a good one... Thus the best is still to come... I won't spoil here... but there are many good fight to come. Espicially the one with Naruto and Sasuke

I have kept myself far away from the manga.. it's not really because I don't want to read it.. it's just that I won't be able to enjoy the anime as much if I read ahead.. and I won't be able to not read ahead if I HAVE the manga here on my hd.


The Legendary Three refer to Jiraiya, Orochimaru and Tsunade...

LOL, then I guess I'm looking forward to it too... then.. 2 manga parts = 1 anime, so you just wait... waiting a week for a new release isn't much considering some other animes takes months to come out..

Omega, I was wondering if you could contribute to the FAQ in any way, as you seem to know more then you look like..

Kirby, yes HM comes with a help manual, but this one contains further explainations and other stuff not quite detailed in the original help manual. Plus everything got pictures.. So easy that is to understand.

well I need to know how to edit the title screen. That is kinda confusing.


Menu Screen Editing:
This editor allows you to change the menus screens of the game. With the move button you can click and drag to move stretches of tiles. Pressing "M" changes between horizontal and vertical. Pressing "," decreases while "." increases the length. Pressing "-" changes between normal and fill. It is recommended that you don't change the size of anything these characters in the last 5 screens as this might cause the game to crash. With the draw button, the selected tile can be painted on a stretch. By pressing the right mouse button, a new stretch can be placed.

EDIT: For your pictures you should host them to somewhere else as all I see are red cross. (Go register a free account at http://photobucket.com/ for instance)

As I recall, back some time ago, I tried to download it but the page couldn't be found.. that was because of the format of ur rom.. it think you didn't made an ips file.. wasn't it ? so I couldn't tried it... I too have been working on a Z3 hack for a long time... but thus I won't tease you guys yet.. All of my light word/dark world are revamped already (and 100% re-done, nothing is like the original rom).. almost finish with the monologue and palettes... and finished the first dungeon... I'm not for demos, so even if it takes a year to finish, I'll take it.. when I'll release it, you'll know.. until then... I shall work with everythink I got.

Make a bigger Overworld... I mean, use at least every parts of your overworld... cuz your first hack lack of places to visit.. secondly, make both worlds available (dark/light). Make the world maps this time, to be further more easy to know where we are and where we are going. Change the overworld layout... that's a + to your hack... Aside of all these overworld oriented works, make good dungeons using all of your skills available.. and finally.... test your hack or enter a beta/test phase before even releasing it!!

For exemple, here's the layout I used to make my overworld:

Try to be creative and you will come up with something good...

The edited game is The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past (SNES) and the editor is Hyrule Magic.. In case you want to start your own hack, you can download the editor at: http://www.dragoneyestudios.net/index.php?page=utilities&id=6 and if you need help using it you can download the compiled FAQ I released a while back in another thread (just search the forums).. And yes, the overworld is all of my work... took a long time to made through..

Woah. This is probably the best Zelda 3 hack i've seen so far! I cant wait to see what the dungeons look like!

Are you planning on keeping the music/graphics the same, or modifying them?


Thanks!! About the graphics, there is already some new ones for the overworld, and of course will be new ones for the dungeons.. And as for changing the music, well seeing how no one manage to make good music in their Z3 Hacks, I doubt I will modify them.. (Don't count Euclid as a musician...). But, depending on the places you'll visit, the music will change to the environnement (**Of course ..**).

Look at the first image you posted, the one with the story in it. "Save all the princess" is NOT correct grammar. Everything else looks great, though. One screen looks vaguely similar to another area in the game, but I'm sure it's not anywhere near that spot... and heck, it may just be my fuzzy memory.


The first picture (story) is only for display purposes.. (subject to change..) And what is the correct grammar if I might ask ? Also, can you tell me which screens look the same, so I changes em' right now ?

I love it, altought some screens look familiar, but you can't actually mind that, looking at how much of the OW is changed. I love the new OW map.


I'll try to change the familiar screens as much as I can, thanks for the commentaries!

The overworld revisions are awesome. Everything looks perfect, the slight GFX changes are very well done... Youve basically left me speechless... which is very hard to do


I never though people would become speechless regarding all this! At first, I did all that for fun; now that all these commentaries are positive (most parts), it minds me to do more and continue the hard work.

While on the subject of grammar, "upon" is not spelled "uppon"

I totally love that map you made. my only beef is that it looks so much like the one i made years ago. but that's only coincidence, since my map was never ever shown.

very nice


... at least the overworld is not full of mistakes... anyway, I'll finish the light/dark worlds first, then will be the monologues, dungeons etc.. parts..

edit: I'm finally done with the Light World... I redone some parts so it isn't like the original game; here's the result (note: the top right corner will be changed..):



Fell free to ask questions, comments

You also have things like trees and mountains 'merging' into each other to seperate sareas. Shouldn't the overworld be at least *mostly* uniform? Oddities like that are just... well, odd!


The waterfalls will be fixed, be assured; and as for the oddities you described.. In fact, they were present in the original game too, the only difference is that you don't see them while in game.. Only by making screenshots and merging em' together you will be able to see them. This will never affect the game in terms of quality.. Here's the original game overworld and mine:



As you see, when the hack be completed, You will never get to see these "oddities"...

Very nice. Some screens are noticable, but most arent. The overworld looks great. Is that all you have been working on?

BTW, its usually a good thing to not show everything at once, cause now I basically know where everything is. Great work though. Im amazed.


I've been working on two other Z3 side hacks aswell, but teh overworlds weren't much complex as is.. Anyway, when you'll play the hack, the first thing you'll notice are teh overworld maps will look pretty much like the overworld itself.. So, I'm not spoiling much there.. And the dark world is still to be finished, so were not being spoiled that much afterwards..

I once changed the bunny you transform in (Dark World - When you don't have the moon pearl) Into Mario Bros.. was kinda funny!

Hyrule castle town has been revamped several times before looking like that, I think it's the part that I changed the most through the hack..

Here are some old screens while that part was still in developpement:




As for my dungeons editing skills, they will never surpass those of overworld... but then, I'll do my best!

EDIT: The waterfalls that Parasyte mentioned are now fixed... I might aswell do something with the rock/tree merging thing
