A few questions. (I know I ask a lot)

Okay, so I am working on fixing up some more stuff as I will be tackling two mods at the same time: one solo and one collaborative.

I need to move Young Link's arm, bow, and arrow to the left and I need to align the bow string correctly. Anyone know how to do this?

Also, how would I go about making the bow actually use the bow ammo instead of the slingshot ammo?

Also, when working with Adult Link, if I remove the Master Sword, the game adds it back in on its own the next time I load the save. Any way to fix this?

And for my last question, how to I stop the Deku Shield from burning?

Relevant to the topic: You can make the slingshot shoot arrows with this information but it won't look good unless you give Young Link a bow. To make the slingshot shoot arrows, go to 0xC0323A in ROM and change 0009 to 0002. Arrows won't work properly as an adult anymore though, so you'll need a bit of assembly hacking to get around that.

 

It's not completely a perfect workaround, but it does work. Haven't figured out how to get around it though.

I already did this, which is why you see the arrow in the screenshot, but it still doesn't use the bow ammo. My slingshot ammo depletes instead. I need it to use the right ammo.

Sepulcher, I have some notes you should look at. I made a couple of hacks related to what you want to do (i.e. Izou Zelda and OoT Rebirth).

 

For getting the mastersword to disappear, look through the stuff in this folder: https://www.cs.utexas.edu/~jason777/Izou_Zelda/Misc/

 

For getting the projectile ammo for Young Link to use bow ammo: https://www.cs.utexas.edu/~jason777/OoT_Rebirth/Arrow_Rupee_Decrement/

 

I made a hack for using the bow as child Link... CloudMax made a much better hack for the same thing and posted it somewhere.

Thank you so much, Jason. I'll give these a shot right away.

Sorry for the double post, but I tested the arrow rupee decrement patch and it just made the counter disappear causing my weapons to be useless. Any suggestions?

[Jason777]

The arrow rupee decrement patch removes arrow amounts and has the bow use the rupee count instead. That's why I said I had made hacks related to what you want to do.

 

What I was pointing you to were the notes and documents - they have information on how to have the arrows use different item amounts.

 

If you need more help then I'll go out and pick everything specific to your needs.

I'm pretty sure there's an age check to allow the proper display list to be used, then you can fix it to use the bow's wire. It's somewhere.

I'll let you know if I need more help with it. I'm going to experiment with it to see if I can learn anything.

I'd love to find that. I think I'm going to try to port the display list for the adult bow string first and see if that fixes it.
