OoT3D: Trick Research and Discovery Thread

Ok I was wrong. You can leave some of the grottos you warp to. Usually both screens will turn black, but you can still walk around and use items (you can hear the noises).

When leaving the grotto I warped to when using the one in zora's river inside of that stone circle I walked around a bit and fell into lava or something. the screen appeared for the one second again when I hit the lava. I wasn't really able to see where exactly I was, but this might have been the ganon's castle surrounding area.

I think I've tested almost every grotto now and I always just ended up in another grotto. Only exception was the standard one which warped me to lakebed. we should really try to leave all the grottos now and try to end up in a useful place.

When you end up in the area which you believe is ganon's castle area, do you think anything in specific would happen if you die?
Maybe the screen comes back, or maybe you just get a soft freeze.
If you could get your screen back by dying there this could be a major breakthrough.
Also, I wonder what would happen if you enter a loading zone when you have the blackscreen.
I have a feeling that you would get a soft freeze, but if not then that would also help alot.

Here is my new water temple small key clip:

I also tested this grotto glitch alot this day. I noticed there is also difference when you quit without saving. Example when you fall down from hole to bottomless pit, then quit. You will end up to other grottos and sometimes to lakeside laboratory. Usually it's lakeside laboratory. In same grotto entrance do death hole glitch that where you fall to bottomless pit and let fairy revive you. You will end up different place after that. Like in skulltula grotto near kakariko village I got loaded small treasure chest grotto somewhere, then I ended up other grotto in black mess what was not loaded. It was like wrong warp with hover in old oot. When I walked to unloaded grotto loading point. Link came up from grotto where I went in.

I also tested this stuff with odd mushroom timer. When you are stuck in death hole glitch. Let timer go away. Deliver spoiler text box freezes and nothing happens after that. If you glitch in lakeside laboratory and there show eyeball frog to doctor he will give you medicine just like normally but you don't get any timers from that. So it's useless I think. I was thinking could you warp away from laboratory without freezing.

When you are stuck in death hole glitch. You play warp song and it get stuck too. It doesn't take you anywhere.

In same spot you can try to climb on epona and escape death hole glitch. If you walk to other loading zone this mode on. Link will just walk straight forward and next area doesn't load at all. You might get stuck in wall that is other side of loading zone.

I really like to see how you guys do this glitch. I mean where you quit and other things

EDIT:
Two videos what I uploaded yesterday if anyone haven't seen them yet!

Kazooie, it's that way:

Every grotto warps you to a certain place. It doesn't matter if you reset while falling through the grotto or if you do so while being stuck on top of it. The standard grottos with that rupee chest warp you to lakebed, the others just to one of the other grottos.

But here's something awesome: Some of the grottos can be left. You'll get a black screen, but you can still walk and us items. You can also save there by dieing. The places I warped to sound really promising:
- Ganon's Castle Surrounding area
- Burning Kakariko (Nocturne CS didn't start  )
- Sacred Realm or at least an area with the same music

Sadly, I forgot which grotto I used for each of them. I think I definately used the Zora's River one, the Kakariko one with the re-deads and the one with the skulltula to the left of the kakariko entrance coming from hyrule field.

Picking up the Silver Gauntlets while equipping the Golden Gauntlets replaces them.

I'm also testing the Bombslide + hover boots to see whether or not it can reach the other side (Mirror Shield Chest to Silver Gauntlets chest and vice versa) outside of the temple and it doesn't seem like it.

Grunz!
I mean when you are falling, don't quit. I ended up very different place with that. Sadly i don't have video of it. I was near kakariko secret grotto where you can get skulltula. I was falling down and then fell to void. Game loaded me to unloaded grotto and other one was loaded far away from me. And I can leave that grotto as well. But nothing relevant happened. Just came out the same grotto where I went in. :/

I can now confirm that it is indeed possible to clip out of bounds in water temple.

I also found out that it is possible to do the regular hookshot clip when you are under water.
Already looking for places where that could be useful.
