No, you can just pegasus run into the wall and it will send you back across the gap to continue on.

Link looks the same to me too. He doesn't appear to have been changed from the last version. There are a few animations where Link's hat appears, such as when grabbing and lifting things.

The game's definetely harder. Alltp is a bit easy, Para. Worlds is a pain, I wanted mine to offer stiff resistance to the player. But you should see the stuff that was cut from the final version.

I'm looking at Link's graphics right now that I exported from the same version of RoR that's here. In the editor, he no longer has his hat, and he doesn't have it when I play. Try doing a normal save, that might fix the promblem. Otherwise, I'll investigate it a bit, see what happens.

EDIT: It appears I didn't change the link for the file correctly. Simply redownload it now.

I just did a practice run, because I plan to do a Let's Play of LttP, and the room I was thinking of requires a boot jump to get over, then you can Hookshot your way back across, and the room had less than I thought. It had one bomb, a full magic decanter and two faeries. I know saying that was pointless, but I figured I might as well correct myself.

I feel compelled to try your hack now just for the fact I'm looking for a challenge that doesn't drive me absolutely insane.

The original version drove my test-player insane. The only thing left from those days is the Sea of Flames dungeon, which I plan on rebuilding, though I will likely retain the same "puzzle" theme there.

The original would have made Euclid and SePH's beamos obsession look easy. If you ever bother hitting the Crypt of the Damned, there's a large, dark, spike and fire-chain thing infested maze that you had to drag a statue through, though that part isn't in the criteria now. It took my play tester a couple hours and more than a few fairies to pull off.

I'm usually pretty good at puzzles like that, as long as you're not throwing me at it with 2 faeries and a measly 3 or 4 hearts.

EDIT: I downloaded your latest demo from the original post and it will not run. I patched it to the ROM and it loads the blue triforces and then a really glitchy titile graphic, then it crashes when I try to move on to the Character Select screen.

I just downloaded it fine,though I've only ever tested it on SNES9X and the PSP version of it. I can't guarantee that it will work on ZSNES.

And I kept the triangles yellow. How Strange...

Maybe it's the fact I used an already patched ROM to patch yours to it. I can't seem to find a ROM compatible with any hack patch. I've searched several places, too.

I just did another search, and I found a massive dump of different versions of the game, I picked one of the out and it worked. I'm ready to take a look at your hack now. I'll let you know if I get stuck or whatever.

@Brzdzx: No, it's in beta still.

@Torin: Big red flag problem with the first dungeon, I can only find one crystal switch and it requires me to have it be on orange to leave the room, but there's two places that require me to have the switch set to blue. To make matters worse, the only path back to said crystal switch is blocked by the treasure chest that has the small key for the room north of the Silver Gauntlet chest. Unless I missed something, this is impossible to complete.

You're going the right way. That crystal switch is unnessecary to beat the dungeon. You use the keys from the dungeon's wings to locate the crystal switch you need to press.

Taking what you just said, I made it to the room CreatorofChaos made it to, and I remembered you saying something about using the jump caused by crashing into a wall. My only issue is that I haven't found the Pegasus Shoes yet, did I miss them somewhere? If I did, just give me a general area because I want to find them on my own.

EDIT: Never mind, I wasn't positioning myself right for the bomb to push me far enough. Problem solved. Though I have to say that forcing the player to take damage like that is pretty cruel. You're required to reach that room with at least a heart and a half, and that's the minimum to survive the blast.

EDIT2: I found and beat what used to be Mountain Palace. It was laughably easier than the original.

Here's two screenshots I took of my progress, taken after finding the "Torin Miller Room."

You're on track.

I'll give you guys a checklist of what still needs to be completed for this to be officially a full hack instead of a beta in my eyes.

Crypt of the Damned - Finish off one final room.
Sea of Flames - Some rooms need tweaking
Ancient Vault - One room needs tweaking
Palace of Frost - Add some enemies, ice over some rooms.
Rockvan Overworld- Sprites need to be placed, add some details to the shoreline
Hyrule Overworld - Sprites and items on the overworld
Monologue - Fixing existing script to fit right, modifying the crystal scripts.

Add heart pieces (24 to go)
Add quake and ether
Place sword 3 in new location, find a spot for sword 4.

And there is also just random stuff I want to try to do, but that won't effect gameplay, like adding a number of half-built trebuchets to the Rockvan overworld and destroyed ones somewhere in the Hylian overworld.

Sorry its taken a while to respond. Whenever it rains or snows here, my internet, phones, and occasionally power fail. But go ahead, I wouldn't mind if someone did a youtube playthrough of it. Just send me a link
