This thread got off topic by the way.
This reminds me of Star Wars for some reason, and on this: I once wanted to buy Adobe Acrobat. No store had it. The salesman said: No change of getting this. Since none of the cracks actually worked I readopted the dll to directly disable all activation. This was done only, since the seminar deadline was pushing the entire class to present their pdf-s to the teacher and nobody could convert it with Win8 or 7, since the pdf factory, as a digital printer, was giving us constant errors. So what was that, dark side or a rescue of half of the class from getting an F. For security reasons I did all the converting and never presented this dll to the public.
The problem is that we are not a company, and thus we can never make a game from scratch. By the way, so called Complete hacks can be regarded as "new games", since all the "level" content has been done from scratch. This is game design, but the engine, ie the programing is entirely based on the original (obviously). The same could be said for gfx. We don't have the capability to draw all of them from scratch.
Finally something we can agree on. That's all there is to it, honour and respect. That's what the repro guys are lacking. And there is another thing that they are lacking: keeping quiet. Maybe the most bothersome are those You tube "deboxing" bragging videos and public sites which endorce carting. Can't they just make a cart and sell it on a street (partial sarcasm). But ironically there was one time I actually saw this in real life. A "yard sale" sort of speak. You could get anything there, from cracks to pirated cd-s to old bykes. But guess what: no part of this yard sale was on You tube or ebay or an internet site.
I once wanted to write a seminar on this: "the life of the romhacker", with the final closure: don't romhack.
The easiest way to answer this is through one fine statue: "Victory" by Michelangelo. Unfortunately it was to late when the "victor" actually realized that he "lost", when he defeated an old man. The same could be said for me, when I realized, that I released a mod, which changed the name of Shigeru Miyamoto into mine. Then I at least remodeled the first intro massage back to Nintendo presents. I hope that with 8 million copies soled for A Link to the past can at least compensate for our changes. But this was only done, since the sequel was never released. But as Insectduel said the modding originated from translation. The whole thing reminds me of this: the famous Bill Gates and his Microsoft made Windows7... without some basic buttons such as copy and paste,on the Windows explorer main bar. It was one unknown common person, who programmed a so called Classic Shell to bring some old vital and more than necessary features into it. So what is he, a bad guy? He never asked permission for the mod and never got any money for it. You can call him a hypocrit, but I call him a hero. The very same can be said for romhackers such as Infidelity (Zelda for NES), Digital Mantra (Super Metroid for SNES), Green Kirby/Crysalis (Super Metroid for SNES) and Fusoya! (SMW TLC + SMW editor). These authors brought us something, that the original authors failed or didn't do. One of the best games for NES and SNES never got sequels. However Nintendo is learning and actually made an official editor (a game actually) for Wii, with which you can make your own Mario levels. http://e3.nintendo.com/games/wiiu/mario-maker/ |

Posted by puzzledude I saw that on my 3ds e shop video at first glance I had to laugh at it. Why you say ? well nintendo developers and programmers are starting to get the picture. To let the gamers of the past and new generation make their own games every once and awhile. That and so many previous editors are already out there for old and new rom hackers. Atleast nintendo themselves might able to see what we do with it and may do other official editors for oldie games. Longs as the editor is full featured with clear instructions I wouldn't mind taking a stab it for laughs.

Posted by B.B.Link There are fairies on the overworld who will refill both your life and your magic. Also, without giving out any spoilers, I'll be vague and say that the blue lantern is not the only way to light up dungeons. Unfortunately this thread got hi-jacked big time, so I'll repost my question as well which I suspect got totally lost in the OT conversation which immediately followed. "I've been playing through the game, and I made it to the skull level (the 4th dungeon) and after I died inside the dungeon and saved the game, now when I go back, the gate to the dungeon is once again closed, the "I am Error" guy is protecting the gate, and I no longer have a blue letter to show him to pass. I even went back to the dungeon 1 where I got it and its no longer there. So I'm completely stuck. Is there another way into the dungeon, or have I stumbled onto a bug?" I ask this because I really don't want to re-start from scratch. |

Posted by bmw Send your pm to infidelt ask him to check make sure the letter you got in dungeon 2 is permanent. Also ask him to make sure error reads your approval letter he moves aside and disssappears for good. Reminds me of the issue I see with most dungeons in his hack. If you die in the middle of playing in it, hit save and come back to it later. 9 times out of 10 the game will reseal the dungeon lock. Meaning you "link" must travel Lo-Rule fucking "AGAIN" and find another key if you don't have a spare. :/ Just ask infildelt to look into it for you and validate it to be true again. Remember to save your sram file so you wont have to play through the whole game again. |

Posted by bmwPosted by B.B.Link I know the Red candle is in the game. If there's another way to light up dungeons or know where the red candle is hit me up on a spoiler tag. |

Been playing through this one over the past few days and am extremely impressed. I could use some help in the endgame though...
Which dungeon(s) if any contain the red ring and the silver arrows? Ive made it to the final boss of the game but havent come across these Is there a Map in the final dungeon? Any chance of getting a list of heart pieces? I got 20 but i think the last one was a glitch (bottom left corner of map, when i revisited there was an empty chest sitting atop a new one with a second heart piece...after this it turned into stairs leading to a shop with another heart piece...on leaving the glitched chest was back. Thanks for the help |

Posted by lollapalooza Well, i found the arrows, ring, and map. All that's left is one final heart piece. I'll bet its the same one leviathanmist was working on when he was stuck at 19 also...any clues? |

There should be no saving issues in v3.2. I cannot re-create the glitch with the gate being closed again. Spolier Once you deliver the letter to Error, he will open a portion of the blockade, so that you can pass & enter the Light World Ganon castle. This should not be resetting at all. The only thing that resets, is Error, since he has the letter. You can not re-obtain the letter. However, the blockade that Error opened for Link, SHOULD still remain open forever.
Again, please make sure to be using v3.2 on a clean PRG0 rom, and not using any previously created save states, or battery backed save files. All heart pieces should be working as well too. I have played & saved on FCEUX pc, Nestopia on WiiU, & on my NES, and have had no issues with those items. If you are able to re-create those issues more than once, and can submit video evidence so I can see how this was triggered, i'll take a look when I can, but I'm pretty much burnt out with rom hacking and this particular project in general. I do apologize for any inconveniences during gameplay, but v3.2 is pretty much the final version of my work, and it's the most stable. |

That wall kicked my ass the first few times.
The timing is SO tight. A split second too late and it'll be butt-stabbings for poor Link. Where the hell is the Hammer? ____________________ Krakenskin Leather Works, my Etsy store. LordVanya, my art page. FundamentalEssence, my game development page. |

I encountered a minor bug, but I don't know how to reproduce it. Basically, when I went into the house that had the old woman who said she wish she had a book to pass the time, after I left the house, I went down one screen, and jumped with the Roc's Feather from the grass on the left side to the grass on the right side, on the top of the screen. When I landed on the right side, the player fell into a hole, even though there was no hole there. I don't know how to reproduce this though.
A minor error in the overworld design: The player can get stuck in that spot, but can simply move left to get out. Still, it's not something that should exist. Also, I hope this doesn't sound like a stupid question, but how the hell do you use the Pegasus Boots? I got them, but holding down the A button doesn't do a damn thing. And doing a bunch of combination buttons doesn't work either. I also checked the readme and the first page of this thread to see if there was any information on the usage of this item. EDIT: Apparently, if you have the Pegasus Boots equipped in the A button slot, you can't use them. They have to be equipped in the B button slot. But also, they can be equipped in both slots, and that's where problems come along. This happens: It treats the boots in Button A like a sword, as you are dashing with them. And then, if you are at the border of the screen, facing right, like in this picture, if you hold the B button down to charge the boots, you will never run. You will just sit there charging the boots. I patched version 3.2 to a clean ROM, and I haven't used any savestates. However, whether the ROM I have is PRG0 or PRG1, I don't know how to tell. If the boots graphics showing up as a sword doesn't happen in a different PRG ROM, then it could be the ROM I'm using. I just wanted to point that out just incase. ____________________ My YouTube Channel |

@Vanya: Level-4
@RetroRain: The edge of screens with Pegasus boots is needed, to stop link from appearing on the opposite side of the screen. Everything else you posted, thank you for that. |

Possibly a minor bug:
I had the bombs equipped in the first item slot. I had only one bomb left. The feather and map were in the slots that are shown in the image above. After I used the last bomb to blow the cave wall open, and enterted the shop, after I left the shop, all of the item slots were empty. I don't know if the graphics were just not being displayed, or the items actually were unequipped. There's a possibility that if you equip the bombs, use them, and run out, and enter a shop, or a shop that was exposed by using a bomb, the game has a minor glitch with the item slots. Just wanted to report this. It is very minor, but it is worth mentioning. EDIT: The Roc's Feather/Hole-Fall happened again. And somehow I got it to be triggered when I was simply jumping with the sword equipped. Is there a reason that there are a lot of dead-end caves? I noticed one of the caves has two highlights on the floor. EDIT 2: Confirmed. When you blow a hole in a wall, and it is your last bomb, and you walk through the passage, the game un-equips the items in your item slots. EDIT 3: If you don't have any keys, you are trapped. You are forced to die and start the dungeon from the beginning. Not really a bug since you can die and start over, but whether it is a good thing or not is questionable. EDIT 4: When I first got to the dark world, I couldn't toggle the items in the item slots with the select button. When I used the ocarina, then I could. ____________________ My YouTube Channel |
