Links look at the start screen

[Joeiiii]

How is it possible to change Links look at the start screen?



Slot 1 = Red ring and something else
Slot 2 = Red ring and something else
Slot 3 = Golden ring

Why slot 1 and 2 has a different look?

And why the golden-ring-Link is black/invisible?

How can I change it?

In the ZQuest Editor, use Quest->Graphics->Game Icons. The graphic (tile) is linked to the highest level of (Armour) Ring that Link has; and the tile bust be 4-bi (16-colour).

Note that the internal 1st->5TH quests use hardcoded tile IDs for their icons. That behaviour is likely to change in 2.55, as the quest icons should be set by the current module.

Could someone please kill this thread? It is the same one.



There are 4 black squares.



0 = no ring
1 = blue ring
2 = red ring
3 = golden ring

Correct?

I don't know what I have to do. The squares stay black, whatever I do.

If I click to one of the squares:



I can change the CSet, so that I see tiles, but what then? I can't select a tile and the square stay black.

I'd guess that your palette has black for its CSet 6 colours. IDK how you set that up, but I'd think that your Lv3 ring CSet offset is wrong.

In the Item Editor, this is the Link Sprite Palette attribute on armour ring class items.

Post a link to download the quest file that you are editing, and I'll have a look.

Oh my... Where did you find this base quest file? The tileset is from ZC <= 1.90 .... ?!

I can't promise that it won't have any other serious defects, but I patched in the current palette and tiles, and I fixed the quest icons for you.

Unfortunately, it won't be set up for any of the new tiles, and splicing in the current combo table isn't an option. It'd probably be better to re-create your maps using the current base files, to avoid issues, but at least this will remedy your immediate concern. You just won't have any of the new graphics that have been added to the base ZC tileset over the last seventeen years.

P.S. You may want to rethink the Magic-Octorock spam on the overworld, too. Other than that, it looks to be a fun little dungeon romp, en Deutsche.

No, not ZC 1.00, but 1.84 or 1.90.

I started building my quest many years ago, then I did nothing for a long time and just recently started again.

I corrected my post. 1.00 was a typo for 1.90.

You managed to read my reply in the minute or two between posting it, and correcting+amending it.

(It's impossible to open quest files older than 1.84 in ZQuest versions >= 1.84.)

I posted a fix, and more details at the same time. If you send the older file, prior to saving in 2.50.2, to me, then I could precisely detail the version of ZC in which it was previously saved.

Isn't it possible to convert it in any way? I've tryed to export my maps, dmaps, etc. and import it in a new file, but it doesn't work.

Animated water and many other things would be grate.

Magic-Octorock Spam? This is the Magic-Octorock reduced version! Ok, the corner you address is the one that is dangerous. Ganons palace is there. The king of the underworld rams his henchmen around. Maybe a problem without the mirror shield, a boomerang and the red ring, but this is The Legend of Zelda and NOT a little girls birthday party. In the non-Ganon-area are almost no Magic-Octorocks, except to guard the magic sword and the master sword/golden arrow.

But apart from that: Thank you for your help.


PS:

... en Deutsche.

Your German (or your Google translation) is just as bad as my English.

The colors used for select screen icons are not the same ones used for Link in-game. In Quest > Graphics > Palettes > Sprites > 1, CSets 9-12 are the ones used on the select screen.

You can press C and V to copy and paste CSets. You can even copy them from the main palette to the extra palettes that way.
