Title: ALttP Modification! (1ST PATCH RELEASED)
Post by: Dogeritos on February 14, 2015, 01:35:53 AM
I'm now working on a new LTTP hack, which lets you play as a Saria-looking girl (not sure if I should make her Saria or not). And before that puzzledude guy comes in and starts saying crap, I know that something similar has already been done with the Ancient Stone Tablets (where the girl mascot is replaced by either Saria, Malon, or Impa), so yeah, I'm fully aware of that, but I'm sure it hasn't been done yet with LTTP, so yeah, BOOM! Original idea coming your way! I've taken the graphics from the girl mascot from the BS Zelda series, and made her hair green.
Here's a screenshot of the Saria character :woot!:

I hope you all can add some input to this project to make it better. The first patch will be released when I get some more major components changed. Thanks!

***UPDATE***(1-31-15)
I've changed the healing fairy's graphics to look Navi-like!

Sorry about the small image size... I couldn't seem to expand the image without messing it up. I know, I can fix it, but I just want to get this image out for you all, so yeah! Hope you all keep following this hack.

***UPDATE***(2-1-15)
Got the flute to look more like a recognizable ocarina (thanks to puzzledude for helping me find the icon graphics for items:D)

What's your opinion on the hack? What else should I add? Make suggestions and requests below, thanks! :D

***UPDATE*** (2-2-15)
I gave the knights faces (like the Parallel Worlds hack).

***UPDATE*** (2-3-15)
Gave the boomerang a new look (subject to change).

How does it look? How can I improve it?

***UPDATE*** (2-4-15)
Changed the look of the numbers.

***UPDATE*** (2-5-15)
Attempted to bring back the hieroglyphics from the Japanese version.

***UPDATE*** (2-6-15)
I edited the tile in the Eastern Palace where the Big Key appears to where it looks like it did in the original Japanese game. (thanks to puzzledude for helping me find where the graphic was for it in YY-CHR  :D) The original design was taken out when it came to America because it looked like the Star of David, and Nintendo couldn't add religious references to their games, so yeah, here's a little restore of how the game should've looked!

***UPDATE*** (2-7-15)
I gave the knight bosses in the Eastern Palace a new look.

***UPDATE*** (2-8-15)
I changed the pendents to pieces, so they now make a triforce! :D

My first (Alpha) patch is FINALLY available for all of you who've been following this hack. Now note, I just threw this together, and it's subject to change for the final product, and not all the graphics changes are final (I know, the Link replacing Zelda didn't go too well... I'll improve it one way or another though!), but yeah, I hope you all enjoy this little, quick display of what the hack will be like.

Make sure to patch a Zelda 3 ROM that's a .smc file, not .sfc

"Ocarina" was misspelled in that one screenshot

The 3rd link in your first post. The Ocarina is called Flute.

Yeah, that's what it's called in ALttP... I've opened up the graphics and I haven't found where to change it. Wish I could though.

Nvm, I was thinking about the text in the menu, sorry... xD So, what do you think of the hack thus far?
