Best Zelda II hack ever?

[Modus Ponens]

Gr. So, I'm stuck. Anyone else here playing this hack? I want to have a PM conversation and get help with something here.

[Sam Atoms]

Well.... I'd like to help you, but I'm not as far along as you probably think I am. I've got the candle, I've found two Magic Containers to bring my total to 3, I've got the Shield and Jump magics and I've found my way to a cavey area that looks like the old Death Mountain. But I haven't been able to get very far, if I run into a strong enemy in the graveyard it pretty much means I'm toast.

Just got the Jump Spell and a Magic Container. All my stats are up to level 4, and I'm wandering around the western graveyard / forest caves with no luck whatsoever.

EDIT: This is the solution to the aforementioned mountain path secret. You'll be wandering around for hours unless you get creative and start bumping into things. :p

Who needs Zelda II Enhanced[/URL]?

Is that still being worked on?

[Nicholas Steel]

With help, I got this working. goes to show there are indeed multiple versions of a game. Both versions (different file sizes) that I had, failed with the hack in a similar yet different way.

GoodTools are not the best things in the world, but I guess I shall have to use it for NES ROMs because no one has made a better ROM format for NES dumps yet. For SNES ROMs you should use NSRT.

Is that still being worked on?

I don't think so, and it makes me sad, but then I remember that I'm learning to program, so maybe someday I'll just make it my own damn self.

What on earth do you do once you get the candle? how do you get the magic? I assume I need the jump magic to jump a certain area in one cave to progress through the game...

BTW, it IS normal that you can't break the blocks in the first dungeon right?

[Modus Ponens]

Yeah, it seems that way. I think you get the Handy Glove way later (which is pretty rad, IMO). Anyway, yeah, you need Jump, right? So you have to go find the item that that lady in Rauru is so pissed off about having lost. It's in one of them caves around that first area of Hyrule. You'll find it if you explore a while.

[ShadowTiger]

Yep. Head East from the palace, then south once you hit the beach shore. There's a Goriya in there guarding the necklace.


Also, purely for interest's sake, did anyone else notice that there was a key the boss in L1 drops before you get the candle that can be used on the other locked door you have to stop at before you go to the path that has the boss? ... ... I.e. you have two locked doors you can use that one key in. One leads to the candle, and honestly, I dare not even try the other, lest I get stuck without a key.

[Nicholas Steel]

The other probably leads to... THE CANDLE TOO!!!! (no,I don't really know whats there)
