Anyways, If you've been keeping up with The Legend of Zelda, you know I've been working on a (working) sequel to Ruins of Rockvan. Anyways, I changed the gfx and mucked about in the first area in the overworld and can't seem to get the entrance to the Master Sword working. I have a basic idea of how it works (if a certain tile's in area one and Link walks on it, he's warped) but can someone give me a brief, more in depth explanation on how to fix this issue?

If you can read ASM, great. If not, you still might be able to glean enough information on how to do this from the document.

Basically it goes like this, you probably overwrote some tile or tiles with a very specific character (CHR) value. All you have to do to fix it is figure out what the proper CHR value is to warp to the Master Sword area. But I must emphasize that it is a combo of CHR value *and* the current area you're in that triggers.

So to fix the CHR problem, you'll have to find an unused Map16 tile and set one of its 8x8 tiles to tile number 0x105. (In decimal that's 261, I think Hyrule Magic uses decimal). Flip and palette don't matter, just the CHR value, though you'll probably want it to blend in, mostly. Iirc the original tile that warped you was a part of the log. *checks* yeah it is, right at the point where the log meets the green stuffs.

Illustrative screenshot:



By the way, if any of you ever design your own video game, don't design a warping system like this. It's flat out retarded.
