im posting this separate cus i didnt want it to get lost in op: im also planning to use my video editing to try and benefit the modding community a little by making this:
an actual formally done, fully narrated youtube channel dedicated to learning how to mod zelda because lets face it. information can be pretty tough to find/understand when it comes to zelda modding, and since its not really easy for me to learn from large paragraphs of text, ive decided to document my projects and explain them in the fullest of detail, from what programs i used to dissecting and understanding every error i run into so that hopefully learning zelda doesnt have to be as difficult for others. i figured it would be best for me to do this because im about as clueless as anyone else starting out, so i hope that will be able to make it more relatable and easier to learn. once i finish my first edit, that will be when i post the first video

as much as i love trying to edit zelda, it clearly isn't my forte. as badly as i want it to be, i just dont know enough. however, ive been spending the past 8-9 or so years teaching myself graphics design, motion design, 3d modelling, music making, cartooning, voice acting, and every other digital form of art i can think of because im insane and love to create
and if its ok with you, id like to share with you some of my work (id like to use image tags but they dont allow me to edit width and i am not manually editing all of these):http://i67.tinypic.com/64dl76.png

ive been working on an npc edit for quite some time now, and id like a little explanation on the following topics:
1. is it a smart idea to decompress your rom ANY TIME you do an edit, or is it best to save that step for specific edits?
2. someone mentioned the reason i was running into cpu errors last time is because i never updated zeldas filesystem with my edit. how can i go about updating these tables?
heres a rundown of the r4300i error i was getting last time i worked on this:
-
i guess easier put, what can and cant be done with this ROM and with the tools that are at todays users hand? from what ive learned with the tools we have today, you can currently:create and import your own mapsedit your main characteredit existing characterscreate and import your own charactersedit/create textedit musicimport your own musiccreate and edit cutscenesedit itemscreate and import your own itemscreate your own/edit existing scripted sequences
editing GUI's and title screensis anything on my list wrong, or am i missing anything else?
im curious to know, if someone put in the time and work, is it possible to turn a zelda rom into a totally different game?
-
oh god, i totally forgot about one of my other favorites:
The Thing
im sorry but the forms in it... 100% nightmare fuel

id like to be the first to say The Breakfast Clubthat movie was so good beyond description. ive always wanted my high school days to be like that... even if it was on a saturday

You might want to adjust your texture scaling a little bit; it makes Link and Grog look taller than normal.
ill keep that in mind!
so i started a quick run of the back alley. it still needs work, but its progress:
-
thanks for the criticism guys! ill definitely look into the graffiti idea
finished the town, need to polish the actor placement then ill work on the back alley/jazz club
i guess the carpenters son never managed to keep the family name, huh?
-
O-No, Link, you over slept-ed, we said 7 years, not 700 in the Sacred Realm.
I'm just kidding
Your mod looks great
thanks brother, it means a lot! hopefully i can make it how i see it in my mind
finished the top of the road:
-
i guess anythings possible, lol
ALSO, i managed to save the map and fix it! so nothing was lost and i added on:

hi there! this is a custom map i started today. it was meant to be a sort of run down bronx style city street, but sharp ocarina crapped out on me so now i'll have to remake the map. i did manage to save some images of what i had:
i plan on adding a bit more shape to the buildings, finishing the jazz club, and adding custom music. think of it as an introduction to zelda modding, since it'll have a bit of everything in there, y'know?-

its not REALLY that old, but its the earliest desktop screenshot i ever uploaded to my photobucket account -
i thought i had been using the most recent SO, since i got it from your google docs thing. i didnt know if that was reguarly updated or notim using v0.6
-
I was addressing xDaniel and his actual code in SO, not your map making abilities
oh, i thought the "xDan" was part of that indexoutofbounds thingmy bad lol
-
xDan,
IndexOutOfBounds...
Are you manually indexing or accessing arrays? Why not use Lists? They are easy to work with
And yes I was referring to Try/Catch blocks but I was just being a smarty pants
well see im very VERY new to this, so i have no idea what indexing or accessing arrays does, how to use lists or anything. all i know is making the map, putting it in sharp ocarina, and injecting it. very yknow.. basic lol

i just stumbled upon it a few days ago and good god, is it magical ;-:
the genre is exactly what it sounds like, chill music. i havent gotten into a lot of artists from it, but two that i am definitely fond of is ThePhoz and Slow Magic:
so have you guys/gals ever listened to chillwave? know of any good artists? -
I really do think it has something to do with your OBJ file and not a problem with the program. Would you mind uploading the SketchUp or OBJ file?
sure, heres the files. (contains both the sketchup and obj)

the weird thing though is that before this, i imported a successful map. everything worked and i got no errors. after i tried to open this map, i got the error and it didnt work. i tried opening the old map i successfully imported and if gave me the error for that too
-
i did scale it down and it didnt really help at all :/(heres the error i get)

You need to click Details on the bottom left of the window to give them all of the error info possible. Although they should have caught it in the first place
give it to who? and what do you mean when you say they should have caught it?

There are exactly four videos on youtube for UOT that I've found. Only three of them are sorta useful, and the video quality is shot. And they're all of the older version. There are no tutorials on ZAP2 or ZLE2. Any search for SayakaGL OOT tutorials only bring up the videos I've posted recently.
this so hard. nobody seems to document what they do, and the ones that do are mostly (if not always) the program makers themselves, and even those aren't all that helpful. it makes me wonder how anyone could have learned this stuff.. it must have been god awfully hard just to wrap your head around it from just reading about it. maybe its just the way i learn, and thats visually so videos is basically reading instructions for me

so im working on small map to play around with actor placement, but then i get this error:
whats going on here? is it a problem with sketchup or sharpocarina? -
my avatar comes from a desktop i made. i really dug how the space man morphed in with everything, so i went along and turned it into an avatar

Yup, that's what we meant when we said to reverse the necessary faces. If you didn't separate your collision model into groups you won't be able to have more than one different collision polygon type. I doubt you need to worry about that yet.
awesome! well that pretty much sums it up for my problem, thanks for the tips
