Okay, I think I found the Magic Key...now how do I get it? I don't see any particular triggers to hit, and everything I have tried doesn't seem to be working. The Lens of Truth makes it look like that tree is fake, but I sure can't walk through it. What do I need to do? And are there any particular conditions I need to have (i.e. full heart meter, certain number of hearts, etc) before I can get it?

Aah, there we go...I didn't see that little tree hiding at the bottom there. Got the magic key and finished the quest. GREAT JOB! This was one of the most enjoyable quests I have ever played; all the hard work put into it is greatly appreciated here.

Congrats on completing the quest Angus!
Just reading that really made my time designing the quest really worth it 😊
Glad you enjoyed the quest & thanks again 😃

Oops. I spoke too soon. I don't have the key for that chest. I don't have any keys but I think I have been to all the places where I will have to use the raft. Did I use the key in the wrong place?

Then you need to check your map to see which places you haven't explored...the keys are designed such that the number of keys will match the number of locked doors and locked treasure chests on each floor.

Example, if there's one locked door & one locked treasure chest on floor 1, then there's two keys on floor 1.

Try look for keys on other floors 😊

It shows that I have been everywhere on all of the floors except 4. Then it is just a place I can't get to without the raft. I have opened all the doors where you need a Raft to get across too. Would the key to the Raft Chest be on another floor?

BTW, I tried downloading Hyrule in Chaos walkthrough, but after unzipping and opening it, It gives me the C prompt and I don't know what to put there. I even tried just Opening it a couple of minutes ago and that won't work either.

Sorry to be such a pest. I really like your Quests but either the Quests are getting harder to figure out or I am getting to old to do so.

It's very difficult to tell you where to find the keys as I don't know exactly where you been to. You could have missed out a key chest room. Try to look for the warps on floor 3...one leads to floor 4 with a key chest room.

Where did you download the walkthrough? There should be a text file...you can go to this link to download the walkthrough :

http://zcf.dyndns.org/forum//thread/123/

I got another download for the walkthrough. You can get it HERE.

Are you using winzip to unzip the file and can you read text files on your PC?

Well, it still just gave me the C Prompt, then my computer locked up. I finally had to unplug it because it wouldn't turn off, even with Control. Alt. Delete. Maybe my computer is just trying to tell me to stop playing games. 😉

Yes, I used Winzip. It keeps telling me that it can't find Notepad.EXE when it gives me the C Prompt. I do have notepad though. Probably just my computer. 😡

Hello! Nice Quest...

I have a problem after finishing Level 7.

I don't know how to reach the Dungeon with the Flippers. And if it is the one right next to the Level 6 Triangle Mark, I just can't open the door.

Please help. I have read part of the walkthrough but just could not figure it out.

TIA.

Hello again.

I know where you are talking about. I've been there earlier in the game.

Thanks again for your last answer, Elise.

But for now, I just cannot figure out how to reach that place again.

I have been turning aroud quite a lot and didn't get it.

Some advice will be REALLY appreciated.

TIA

if you get on Tao land you have to go a few screens to the right and then walk up under the bridge
hope this helps 😉

Thanks elise for the great help 😃
It's been one month since this quest has been released, just want to find out what everyone think of it & whether you all like the music 😊

Thanks for the advise, Elise. Now I'm fully working with Level 8.

Thanks also Cepat, for that Quest. I didn't listen to the music, cause I've got some birds in the room and they are scared as soon as I start playing Zelda with the sound on. I'll try it with my headphone.

Bye for now!

Legitny, First off don't necro-post on a dozen plus topics on the same relevant matter.
Second, don't spam the forums through these myriad of topics with the samn damn message. Its just as bad as double posting on purpose.
You have been warned.

I can't find the Jewel to get past the guy in the wood shrine. I beat Level 3 and I want the hammer before I goto Level 4. I know it is somewhere in a certain TaoLand Town. Can someone be specific and tell me exactly where it is. I searched taoland up and down.

for the city take the raft walk along the water to the east till you see a bridge on the left use a bomb and enter the city

Jeez, I walked east in Taoland, took a hard left and walked under the bridge to see a bombable wall. I didn't ever think about walking under the bridge, doh!. If you have a writeup of the most tricky things in this quest, please attach or post it. I'd like to have it for reference if possible. Whatever you can do is appreciated.

Thanks.

I don't really have anything on paper anymore from Tao , you can always follow the link in my sig to my forum there is also a thread about Tao in Ielens hosted forum

Thanks, quick question, there are a few rooms at the top part of the map on the floor below/above the boss of level 2 that I was never able to get to. Is there somthing there, I got everything I needed from that level and defeated the boss. I am now working on level 4. Let me know.

Hi there!

I cant find the boss key in lvl 1.
i found the boss door, but not the key.

thanks in advance!
