Lets go arthur pogiwa

dull rapids
#

playing it rn

#

good job on release!

#

is this pal

atomic ice
#

Oh wait did i forget that

dull rapids
#

in rom_header.s does it say p or e

brisk wing
#

oh is that why it's running slow lol

#

i was about to blame my computer

atomic ice
#

it says p

#

my bad

#

Or atleast I think it does

#

Is that an issue

#

I just realized I didn't fully change the hookshot description

#

So I just overlooked at softlock

#

So after getting the item for some reason. I literally don't know why. The door leading back to the main room will be locked

brisk wing
#

you can at least escape by save+quitting ^.^

atomic ice
#

Alright I fully playtested it and there's a major issue. It wasn't like that before but for whatever reason the chests holding the keys are already open

brisk wing
#

seems like the deku leaf and key chests have the same id?

atomic ice
#

I completely forgot about chest ids

#

sorry

#

this is my first time actually making something playable

tranquil dawn
#

do I remove the patch from the first post?

atomic ice
#

Yea i'm gonna post a new one. Sorry

dull rapids
#

it's untested?

atomic ice
#

I did test it but when the beta feature were on. I didn't take the time to fully test it normally. I thought there wasn't any issue. It's 100% my own fault

dull rapids
#

It's alright 💪

tranquil dawn
#

do I really have to delete my entire message to remove a file, ffs discord

#

well its easy just edit your message at the top @atomic ice

dull rapids
#

in the makefile you need to change it to REGION ?= US for you oot version

atomic ice
#

Ok

dull rapids
#

also when you make the final rom do make clean && make compress

atomic ice
#

what does make compress do ?

dull rapids
#

compresses the rom

#

fixes stuff like the game over crash

atomic ice
#

Alright I playtested it and everything works normally

dull rapids
#

based

#

can't wait to keep playing

atomic ice
#

sorry if i'm taking long

dusky quail
#

about to check it out

atomic ice
#

I hope you like it

dull rapids
#

I like it so far it's neat

sonic quartz
#

What is the recommended emulator for this?

atomic ice
#

I used parallel most of the times. And I did use ares for testing. I didn't try on other emulators

dusky quail
#

running slow?

sonic quartz
#

Still seems to be running at lower fps yeah

#

Is there supposed to be something in here to help me get out? I jumped in and got stuck lol

atomic ice
dusky quail
#

yeah its running PAL i think

atomic ice
#

Uh is it that big of an issue

#

Well except the hole where I forgot to add water. There doesn't seem to be any other softlock or glitches

#

or atleast I didn't encounter any (I played through it 3 times to test)

dusky quail
#

i mean i can get used to the PAL fps

dull rapids
#

It's debug now

sonic quartz
#

File 1 for me is debug on 1.1, wasn't like that for 1.0

#

On project64 3.0.1

atomic ice
#

That's weird it isn't for me

#

Man I messed this whole thing up

dusky quail
#

||DEKU LEAF?!||

#

yoooo

atomic ice
#

Please tell me if there's any issue i'm currently trying to fix them all

sonic quartz
#

Huh after I died my game runs really fast and theres no sound lol

brisk wing
#

Couple I've spotted: ||Deku Leaf's projectile attack doesn't work in every room. I'm guessing the object that contains it isn't always loaded? I think putting it in OBJECT_KEEP fixes that||

brisk wing
#

||Two of the ladders in the flare dancer room don't seem to work. and one of the teleporters sends you to the void ^.^;||

atomic ice
#

ok

#

i'm sorry that there's issues with the hack

atomic ice
brisk wing
#

nah i get it, there's a million things to keep track of ^.^

atomic ice
#

I was really stressed today. I wanted to get it out as soon as possible

dull rapids
#

this one is open

#

which item is it supposed to be?

atomic ice
#

the bomb bag

#

It's strange though it has a unique chest flag in blender

#

Ok time to fix all of these

atomic ice
dusky quail
#

||i stepped on one of the pads in the flare dancer room and now im herel ol||

sonic quartz
#

Weird

atomic ice
brisk wing
#

the game crashes on game over for me lol

#

lotta romhacks do that for me though ^.^

atomic ice
brisk wing
#

||far right wall from the perspective of the room entrance||

atomic ice
#

Ok

atomic ice
#

Alright but seriously I got every issue fixed

brisk saddle
#

Gonna try this one right now

atomic ice
#

It should be completable now

dull rapids
#

guys gotta get to the water temple

atomic ice
brisk saddle
#

You can go go the water temple in this hack????? 10/10

dull rapids
#

20/10

atomic ice
#

I just accidentally left the debug

brisk wing
#

For all the jank there's been, the deku leaf really is a fun item to play around with ^.^

dull rapids
#

Yeah it's really cool

#

should definitley re-use it in the future

atomic ice
#

this is the final version i'm gonna release for a bit. I'm gonna go sleep since it's midnight and i'm really tired. I believe I fixed most issues. The last issues remaining is that debug is still enable on the first file and it has pal framerate. I hope you guys can actually finish it this time

atomic ice
dull rapids
dusky quail
#

yep same

dull rapids
#

the version to play is 1.1

dusky quail
#

1.2 the door is gone

atomic ice
#

Yea that's why I just deleted the patch file

dusky quail
#

ahhhhhhhhhhh

atomic ice
#

I don't know why the hell it happened

#

I didn't change anything with the map

dull rapids
#

give yourself bombs or megaton hammer when you find the chest on the 2nd floor of the mini-boss

atomic ice
#

I'm really fucking sorry for all the jank

dull rapids
#

It's all good

dusky quail
#

seriously don't sweat it

brisk wing
#

yeah, I wouldn't stress out over it ^.^

#

there's a lot that can go wrong with this sorta thing

dusky quail
#

its better than anything I could do ohno

atomic ice
#

Well that was

#

a

#

an awful first hack experience

#

Well anyway have a good day

#

I tested it again

#

and everything does seem to work except for the debug and pal framerate

dusky quail
#

||how do i get up the fan in the flare dancer room||

atomic ice
dusky quail
atomic ice
#

What but I removed that

#

||I forgot to replace one empty. Normally you can just climb on the walls with grids to get up||

dusky quail
#

AH

atomic ice
#

||Yeah sorry about that. I just forgot to replace 1 actor. At first I wanted to make it so you would get up by using fans but I changed ideas||

#

||Also don't forget to hit the switch with the deku leaf in the middle ||

dusky quail
#

||done. squashed the flare dancer and got my heart lol||

dull rapids
#

we finished at the same time lol

atomic ice
#

So how was this janky mess ?

#

my beautiful broken hack

dull rapids
#

I had fun, the item carried for sure but I liked the alternate world too

atomic ice
#

Yea I didn't have a lot of ideas for the alternate world

dusky quail
#

agreed i had fun too, im a sucker for custom items

#

video clocked in at 45 mins but that includes pauses to come here and re-patch haha

atomic ice
#

Oh yeah sorry about it having so many versions

dull rapids
#

everyone knows 1.🚪 is the true version

dusky quail
#

the legend of door

atomic ice
#

I don't think i'll make the same mistakes for the next comp. I learned a ton by participating in this

atomic ice
dull rapids
#

you will have more time next time too

#

2 months is a lot more reasonable for releasing something

dusky quail
#

dude for a first playable hack it's solid imo

brisk wing
#

Yeah, once everything works it's a fun little dungeon

#

Nature / Technology is a really fun take on the theme

atomic ice
#

Yeah I didn't think about that

sonic quartz
#

Just finished and I have to agree with the others, this was pretty cool for a first hack good work!

brisk wing
#

||Deku leaf has a lot of potential||

brisk saddle
#

|| the leaf is great||

#

|| is this teleporter supposed to work? ||

atomic ice
#

||I honestly don't know why I added that but there's a switch for it under the bridge ||

brisk saddle
#

|| oh no i just crashed there ||

atomic ice
#

you crashed ?

brisk saddle
#

|| I went back in the door, came back out and crashed ||

atomic ice
#

That's weird

rustic hull
#

@atomic ice can you @ me with the patch that you deem worthy of putting on the site once it is ready?

atomic ice
#

sure

atomic ice
#

Unfortunately door edition won't be the final version lonk

dull rapids
#

It's final in my heart

#

but yeah should definitley fix the region remove debug and compress the rom

#

although the gameover crash didn't seem to be an issue

atomic ice
brisk saddle
#

||yeah, if you go to the teleporter, go in the door, come back out, crashes ||

#

on Retroarch at least

atomic ice
#

what why ?

brisk saddle
#

Idk, nice hack tho arthur

#

it could be the actor

atomic ice
#

Yeah

#

Alright debug isn't active anymore

dull rapids
#

region?

sudden nacelle
#

V1.2 is latest now?

atomic ice
#

Yeah it's the one without game breaking stuff but it has debug active i'm currently fixing that

sudden nacelle
#

Ok

atomic ice
# dull rapids region?

Well turns out that the region switch wasn't working because I was modifying another repo's makefile

rustic hull
#

lol

dull rapids
#

based

brisk wing
#

relatable lol

atomic ice
#

Oh wow the framerate is a lot better

dull rapids
#

the world isn't ready for leaf at 20fps

atomic ice
#

hell yeah

sudden nacelle
#

Seriously PAL FPS?

#

So bad! angryjoy angryjoy

atomic ice
#

Listen. I played PAL all my life so I didn't even know there was a difference. The final version doesn't have it. Happy ?

dull rapids
#

dude, YES!!!

atomic ice
#

surely

#

it's the last version

atomic ice
#

yea

sudden nacelle
#

I’m understand and deal

rustic hull
#

uploaded @atomic ice !

atomic ice
#

hell yeah

rustic hull
#

make sure to clear ur browser cache if it isn't there yet

tranquil dawn
#

tbf, I live in EU too, played the n64 and the gc version, and when I played the gc one I never went back to n64

#

so yeah never touched again my oot cartridge since I got windwaker/master quest

#

will give this a try later

dull rapids
#

the change from 15fps to 20fps literally felt like I was playing in 30 😂

#

everything is perfect though

atomic ice
#

you can finally use the leaf in 4k 60 fps

sudden nacelle
#

||Reward Heart Container then that’s all?||

atomic ice
#

Yeah. I didn't have the time to make a end sign. It isn't that different from just a simple ending sign.

sudden nacelle
#

Oh wow

atomic ice
#

?

sudden nacelle
#

I just beat the game

#

Cool hack but add credit

#

Still cool

atomic ice
#

I just didn't really have the time to add credits. The only credit I have to give is Noka being the original creator of the teleporter actor and him making it open source, letting me port it. 3 weeks sounds like a lot but it's incredibly small when you take into consideration everything

sonic quartz
#

Played it again on the final version, feels so much better! Thanks for changing that

rustic hull
#

about to give it a go, excited to see what's in store!

copper heron
#

HELP! I'M STUCK!!!

sonic quartz
#

Got stuck here too. Climb up the bars, had to find a specific spot to do so here

copper heron
#

I'll try thanks!!!

sonic quartz
#

I think where its straight since its kinda slanted in some areas and Link won't climb

copper heron
#

It worked, thanks!!! 💪

atomic ice
#

Debug isn't active anymore on the latest version so I guess not

sudden nacelle
copper heron
#

@atomic ice Just beat it. This one is my second favorite, really great work on the map and atmosphere 💪

subtle furnace

Whos zfg

deep socket
void bane
#

@atomic ice time to see what you were cooking in that time

deep socket
#

I don't understand what I'm supposed to do after getting the leaf. I see a switch above the starting postion but I can't glide to it

subtle furnace
#

Finally home and can try the mod pogiwa

void bane
#

wait I grabbed the debug by accident

void bane
sudden nacelle
#

Also ofc weird some glitches not same as US/JP

void bane
#

I freaking love that I fell before flying.

Also screaming every time you glide is hilarious

#

This is also my favourite thing

#

I softlocked myself into a hole lol

sudden nacelle
#

||Ah final version so much better!||

void bane
#

Can I get out of the square hole with the fan? or am I stuck?

void bane
#

ohhhh they climb. I'm a dumbass. I tried backflipping onto the fan lol

sonic quartz
#

The very right of the cage is where it let me climb

subtle furnace
#

||I assume this is the ending? Nice hack Arthur! Especially for a first mod. The parkour section was a lot of fun||

void bane
#

@subtle furnace There's an off teleporter tho

subtle furnace
#

oh does it spawn one at the end

void bane
#

dunno?

#

tbc?

subtle furnace
void bane
subtle furnace
#

||oh yeah you have to turn it on its a puzzle lol||

#

sorry i thought you were responding to my message

void bane
#

I was -.-

Wat did I miss?

subtle furnace
#

Look around the room, its a small room skawoUHHUH

#

||under the bridge||

void bane
#

oh

#

lol

#

someone is trolling

#

now I have an extra key

#

@atomic ice are we finished with beating the miniboss?

#

I enjoyed this. The jumps looked deceiving and were tense. The mechanical stuff was neat in contrast with the green foresty stuff

atomic ice
#

I was asleep this whole time but turns out that for some reason the flare dancer room doesn't require a key for some reason. Normally you're supposed to activate the teleporter and get a key in the alternate version of the garden

sonic quartz
atomic ice
#

oh I didn't see that

#

alright I fixed some things. Now the flare dancer room actually requires a key and there isn't a weird fan in it anymore

void bane
#

I jumped into the square hole in the wall next to the fountain. it made me feel cozy

atomic ice
void bane
atomic ice
#

yea the gate is permanent

#

i didn't have a lot of ideas for that room

#

and for they key count. That's weird. Well not like people are gonna try to open the door without the key

void bane
atomic ice
#

except you

void bane
#

yeah nah this is a fun hack. I LOVE leafing. more in later mods pls :3

copper heron
#

The leaf is a great item that I never realized zelda64 needed until now.

void bane
#

🍃

#

it's definitely a great item showcase

atomic ice
#

this is the channel with the most messages and 90% of it is troubleshooting and glitches

void bane
#

love it

#

that's me, I like finding glitches and breaking stuff, and you needed some help getting set up right?

#

legit it's amazeballs. pretty sure everyone agrees.
especially your custom item

crimson tiger
sleek hornet
#

||what are you supposed to do after beating the flare dancer? like is it done? I'm lost lol||

atomic ice
#

Yea

#

It’s done

sleek hornet
#

oh ok

atomic ice
#

The flare dancer room required a key right ?

sleek hornet
#

I think yeah

#

I found a strange void, camera issues and a crash btw

#

if you open that door with the camera facing the other way it's crashing, not sure why

atomic ice
atomic ice
sleek hornet
#

||the top-right teleporter warps you into the void||

atomic ice
#

Damn Did I forget that

dull rapids
#

I thought it didn't happen anymore

sleek hornet
#

I didn't encounter many issues otherwise (mostly weird camera stuff when using c-up), it was also very fun to play, congrats 💪

atomic ice
dull rapids
#

I remember it being fixed in 1.door

atomic ice
#

1.3 has it fixed though. I remember trying

atomic ice
tranquil dawn
#

why is Link paper Link

atomic ice
#

Wait what

tranquil dawn
#

link is 2D in pj64 lol

#

changed emu and works

atomic ice
#

Oh sorry i never tried on pj

dull rapids
#

Noka plays on his own experimental emulator 😂

#

Noka64

brisk saddle
atomic ice
#

Lmfao. I dont’t even know wht it’s happening

tranquil dawn
#

|| good one, this leaf needs to be in a big romhack can see why it got the spotlight, would had liked to see enemies weak to it, also a stupid fact, link screaming when he glides over a void made me laugh lol ||

sudden nacelle
atomic ice
#

I wanted to repurpose the chu enemy to be vulnerable to it but i didn’t have the files for it anymore

tranquil dawn
#

all good

#

also funny how this is the only one that uses my custom actor unmodified

#

since in mine it does a different thing

dull rapids
#

Yeah I wish that I'd done something like this instead of trying to do something completely different

#

Got ahead of myself for 2 weeks

atomic ice
#

I forgot that 2 hacks uses a mask but they're kind of different

tranquil dawn
atomic ice
#

I'm pretty sure that other people were gonna use it but just didn't finish their hack in time

#

In the end i'm just happy that people like it. I expected it to be bad

#

I don't have the skills to make a good full hack yet but i'm getting closer to that point

brisk wing
#

It is pretty fun how there were two good parallel world gimmick assets released during the jam, and yet the only two hacks to use the same gimmick use neither of them lol

atomic ice
#

there were two assets released ?

brisk wing
#

i thought someone shared a master sword pedestal but now i can't find it o.o

tranquil dawn
#

oh, yea I vaguely remember, to swap between child and adult

atomic ice
#

Oh yeah

#

I didn't see anyone use that

dull rapids
#

Wonder how far dragorn got

void bane
#

Aegiker was doing that cool mirror world thing with the pedestal.

Changing link on the fly would be handy for my mod in particular. could even use the giant's mask transition..

tranquil dawn
#

now that u mention the giant's mask, nintendo did seamless transitions before us

brisk wing
#

isn't there a flash of light in that animation that hides the transition? ^^

void bane
#

Semi-seamless?
Nintendo did a lot of shortcutty things

tranquil dawn
#

it counts as seamless since a normal player never notices its a visual illusion

void bane
#

I suppose any of the transformation masks have that?

tranquil dawn
#

they hide the 1 frame gap behind a white fog yes, but what I mean is that no one thinks about twinmold and the map shrinking instead of link becoming bigger

#

even when I used the giant mask on great bay with the shoreline bug, I still didnt realized that

void bane
#

why make 1 thing big when you can make many things tiny?

#

hide the sins

brisk wing
#

gamedev is all about cheating lol

void bane
#

For my mod, shrinking is just going to make a new map but it's huge

#

so you scale, then have that 1 frame buffer with a flash.

smooth and seamless

brisk wing
#

that sounds like it'd be right at home in this jam lol

void bane
#

nah I am a slow, accursed dev

#

If I made something, it'd scar people

#

@atomic ice I tried for half an hour to get this to crash on hardware but couldn't either. Impressed.

atomic ice
#

which crash ?

void bane
#

shutter door

#

it's a common crash playing some romhacks on n64.

atomic ice
#

Yeah I couldn't replicate it either and I don't think I can fix it

void bane
#

it's nothing to worry about

tranquil dawn
#

I would say it is something to worry about if it affects some romhacks, if you know details about it write them in #coding and maybe some will look into it

atomic ice
#

yea

#

I've never encountered this issue in any romhack but if these are common for you then you should report it

void bane
#

I mentioned it to dave. and stonee

#

stonee tried but couldn't fix it

atomic ice
#

it's either an issue with how the actor works or I issue with my map

void bane
#

I couldn't replicate it. Didn't have any issues for me.

atomic ice
#

It might also have something to do with the emulator but I'm honestly clueless on this whole issue

void bane
#

@rustic hull said there was one but I couldn't find it. it's not as obnoxious as time lost

atomic ice
#

lol

atomic ice
#

People said that the deku leaf was a good item so I think i'll use it for my main project

sudden nacelle
#

You can do it

sonic quartz
#

Yeah it was cool. Hope to see it used again

atomic ice
#

oh btw just noticed your video @sonic quartz thx.

sonic quartz
unkempt junco
#

Great job arthurc good item

#

Fun large platforming rooms is always good

#

Love that you made it in just in time

atomic ice
#

thx a lot for playing. I'm happy you liked it

atomic ice
#

hell yeah

#

cool video. This version was kind of broken since it didn't have the final key lock on the miniboss door but I hope you liked it

kindred hearth
#

I think I'm softlocked

#

||The first keydoor still has a lock when you come through the other side||

#

||I had just gotten a key and imediatelly used it not noticing it was the same door||

atomic ice
#

hold on what. You mean the second key ? This never happened before

kindred hearth
#

I resetted, played again and now it didn't happen

#

I'm streaming so I'll send you the vod later

atomic ice
#

I went through the hack once again and the door never got locked again i seriously don't know why it happened. But i'm sorry

#

i'm watching your stream rn and yea the camera in this room is pretty damn buggy most of the hack is buggy. Sorry for that

kindred hearth
#

@atomic ice is ||flare dancer the end?||

atomic ice
#

Yea didn't have time to make a proper end. It's a pretty crappy one at that. Hope you kind of liked it

kindred hearth
#

ooh ok!

#

I actually thought it was pretty cool. It was your first hack, right?

#

I really hope you keep making stuff like this in the future

kindred hearth
#

when I played previous comp hacks things like this would happen too

kindred hearth
#

maybe you can figure out how it happened

#

but it was a pretty quick fix, my reset point was pretty close and took like 2 mins to get back there

round wraith
#

I cant seem to get mechanical shrine, barjack's, or half light shrine to work on project64. All romhacks patch successfully, though launching via pj gives "fatal error* message.
Reality Estate and return to stone tower both work otherwise.

dull rapids
#

Need to check always use Interpreter core in advanced settings

round wraith
#

Thx it works now! : )

dull rapids
#

Yw g

hushed mortar
#

Hi, I'm playing through this rn and one of the switches isn't colored properly and does not allow me to transition to the other world so I am locked

dull rapids
#

||Under the bridge||

hushed mortar
#

🤦‍♂️ tyty

sudden nacelle
#

@atomic ice ||Congrats hahaha ||

brisk wing
#

saw some of the other comp hacks on there too

#

the bootleggers work fast lmao

copper heron
#

You've made it big, Arthurc 💪

atomic ice
#

20 minute comp hack costs as much as a full priced game

#

well not now since they're all 70$ but yea

dull rapids
#

80$

#

Might aswell be 100 at this point

tranquil dawn
#

unfortunately, the seller will not

#

freaking scammers

unkempt junco
atomic ice
#

lmfao

atomic ice

you have fun for at least 30 minutes kind of like totk

Lol
