Hi. I've been lurking in the zelda modding community for several years (ever since flotonic posted one of his early play as mods, i think the hylian guard, not sure. so pretty long), sometimes trying my hand at a tutorial or two just to test the water and fuel the fire to my big dreams, but nothing major. However, recently i've been hopping around looking for a stable community to keep a keen eye on.
I started out on zelda64, what seemed like the successor to maco, but it doesn't have that kick, y'know? It's like just a bunch of kids with 0 direction who all wanna make the next big mod by themselves, and that's no good. So, i've been looking around, lurking in forums in all sorts of corners and from tons of different eras. I went to spinoutz Z64 forum, mod db, romhacking.net, etc, but everywhere i go there's always a mention of this place which i never wanted to check because it didn't have zelda in the name .
I mean, this place has all the big names like airkita and ideka and sanguinetti and Zeth and so on. So, is this it? The Holy Grail? A large, mature, stable, Zelda modding community with competent programmers and modders? Is the community as thinly spread as I thought? These are the mysteries!!!
Anyway, in any case I'm an animator with knowledge in game design. I wish I could make my own cool mod but I'm not a C+/ASM wizard so I'm looking to maybe swap some display lists or find a good way to animate actors in OOT so I can test my luck. In the meantime though I can design a fine dungeon so if you want some input i'm the idea guy.
tl;dr I lurk. if you're here i'm probably your biggest fan. nice to meet you.
