Yeah, depending how the code is laid out, the DMA patch might actually work on all versions (these routines are defined very close to the start of RAM), but the data probably won't match up. It checks to make sure it's overwriting the right bytes (else it'd mess up everything that gets copied from ROM  ), but if these bytes aren't in the same place in other versions it won't do squat.
As for the accuracy of the German translation, I think we'll need a German person to verify that.  |

Well this code can't easily be ported by subtracting 0x6B0 from the address. It'd have to be re-made for each version. :-/ |

Curse you for not converting that code into 1.0 forum (zelda), and curse my bad luck at not being able to find the webpage that does it for me.
Does anyone have the link? _¬ |

I'm Japaneseing all over the Japanese japanese. *Xkeeper is shot
It could be that the German translation isn't complete, or wrong -- you should check to see if there's any holes in the translation first. |

I think this may be because child Link has no animation for this, or something silly like that. Not easy to fix in any case. 
Also, some Diddy Kong Racing US V1.0 I've been meaning to do: 8112644C ???? 8112644E ???? Option Flags. Bit 25 is subtitles on/off, bits 2 and 3 are language. 81084542 ???? Modifies which language is the second option (normally French). 0=English, 1=German, 2=French, 3="Japanese" (actually just a lot of blank text and the word "Japanese", breaks some menus). 81084550 2404 81084552 ???? Modifies which language is the first option (normally English). The game tends to get confused if this is not English, ignoring the language selection and always choosing a particular language instead. German text in the English version. Not sure why this isn't a selectable option. Rare's awesome Japanese translation. You though Zero Wing was bad?  |

I always forget, isn't the gold cartridge version 1.1? Either way, I don't think I still have my gameshark.
But that would be fun to mess around with. Not as much as 'something' in Twilight Princess though.  |

Hmm, very, very cool!!
Now I'm going to do lots of things I couldnt do before, now a cheat to use the hookshot while young link would be great. |

That is freakin sweet. I am gonna have a lot of fun with this. |

Well it was a lot of work, but...

(For Zelda: OoT US V1.2.) Getting the effects was only half the fun. When you pull out the hookshot the game loads its code from ROM to wherever in memory is available, so it ends up in a different place in each level. I had to hack the load-from-ROM routine to patch the hookshot code on the fly. Technically the chain isn't endless (I tried that but it just made a lot of bugs), but is about 2,521 times longer than the Longshot, plenty enough to grab onto anything in sight. It'd take about an hour for the chain to fully extend so yeah. Of course if you miss (or the polygon you aimed for isn't solid) you can just hit a C button to abort.
The last line just makes the aiming dot always visible, even when you aim at the sky.  (You can't grab the sky though, heh.)
Navigating the game using only a hookshot is fairly amusing. |
