Thanks XTTX! No timetable yet. Right now i'm working on a new item for Link. After that one is finished, i'm down to 2 items left to create. Then after that, it's most likely onto studying the enemy asm within the game.

Posted by Insectduel
Honestly, I NEVER even played The Legend of Zelda on the NES. My first Zelda game is Ocarina of Time on Nintendo 64 so I became a Zelda gaming fan. A link to the Past was my second, then Oracle of Seasons/Ages and Four Swords.

I really don't know the difference between the hacked version and the original such as having a Magic Meter, or a hookshot. The Zelda GB games I played is didn't have magic meters.

This project is quite interesting but keep up the good work.

I cant speak about the GB Zelda games, but Ocarina of Time & Link To The Past, both had magic meters in those games. The only non console Zelda game I've ever played was Minish Cap for GBA.

And thank you for your kind words also!

Thank you eponic! :-D

Posted by AnAxemRanger
So what exactly is the plan with the magic meter? Do you plan on creating some magic based items to find? Of course that brings up the issue of enemies dropping magic jars and such.

Yes, I've been in the process of creating items for Link, that are dependant on the magic meter.

Posted by KTurbo
Or just have the magic meter slowly replenish by itself .

Raising an eyebrow of interest to that one. :-p

Example. A921 8D062O A900 8D0620 after that, either A5xx or ADxxxx 8D0720 60. I know another method, but you need to know where in ram the vram engine is.

Thanks Googie! :-) Update: I've upgraded the rom yet again. First, the rom was capable of containing all individual tsas. But i ran into size problems when working on my tsa individual palettes. Over the weekend, i successfully upgraed from MMC3 to MMC5!!

Thank you for looking forward to my work! No samples at this time. Right now i just fixed 99% of the glitches, due to my removal of the combos, and the asm i wrote to give me complete freedom of individual screen designs. I plan to make a video soon.

I have a program called Dev-C++ 4.9.9.2 I dont have experience with c. I was shown vb, because you could have pre-made windows. Due to what i did to the outworld, your editor no longer works. I know all of locations for what id like to edit.

Ive been in such a "code it yourself" mode, that id hate to ask anyone to perform such a task. But i only know 6502. I would love to share my info with you on how my rom is now. I left the scrn ram properties the same, so i can use your editor for those.

Update. Spent 7 hours this morning writing/fine tuning my palette asm. Im now able to assign an individual palette, to an individual tsa block, for EVERY screen id. No more of the outer/inner palette boarders!

Description From Video

It may not look like much, but what this video demonstrates, is a quick view of how my hack can load all of the 9 worlds. I randomly inserted TSA'S\s, to show my ability to create any design I want, no longer stuck with using the pre-made original combos. I also randomly gave all the individual TSA's, they're own palette, to show that my ability to assign tsa any palette, no longer stuck with the inner/outter palette boarders the original game uses. :-)

Thank You XTTX & eternaldragonx! :-D

I'm looking forward to seeing what gfx I can throw in this game! I'm seriously considering Link's Awakening after what I did in the test screen.

I may also consider into looking in using the ExRAM that MMC5 uses. I was messing around with making 1 8x8 tile have it's own attribute, instead of 16x16. Getting tooooo fancy with that, plus idk how i would make that work for all areas in the game.

But i did sure like how the trees looked when i tested the ExRAM! :-p
