They got the beta interface and model of Link down almost exact. Hopefully soon there will be a full release of this mod with actual beta environments.

I'm a bit new to this - why does the heart gauge have an extra heart?

While rom hacking, you can edit pretty much anything.

[Phantom Link]

Umm... That's it? 1 heart added and C-stick items removed? I don't understand, could someone explain to me, as I dont know much about these things.:confused:

[Chrono]

How about it re created the beta interface, beta model of Link, pretty much bringing all beta aspects back to life.

[Zenox]

THat's so cool! But I think the shield looks a bit odd...

Ocarina of Time was for the N64, and its graphics were not as good as that.

In that mod, the graphics have been improved.

[Chrono]

The graphics were not improved. Some were just redone to match the alpha/beta version of the games actors.

[cyclonegod]

Looks nice. Hope it comes out perfect.

[Autydi]

That looks like a great mod. I hope all goes well with it because from the looks of things it will be a great play.

*Bump*
The mod has been updated...

Its made by the hacker TSdeathangel. Both of these vids are from competing websites, ZSO and Z64 station.

I have to say, that's pretty awesome. Beta OoT always interested me.
What's the place where Link is fighting the Stalfos (With the Columns, and the red carpet)?

[Chrono]

Well thats one of the very early areas that was shown back in 1996. It was leftover in the games debug rom.

[Y2K3]

Oh, okay. I wasn't sure if it was a place that was still accessible in the game that just went through heavy editing or not.

[The Zelda Master]

So, i wonder if pweople will be able to access the beta sections of Majora's Mask. i rememebr seeing alot of the beta stuff and kid link looking exactly like he did on the OoT engine.

[Chrono]

I own the Majoras Mask demo rom and it is available on my site.

Im just making a wild guess (probably wrong): Somewhere In The Spirit Temple.

[Chrono]

Why would you take a guess when I already provided the answer?

[Chrono]

*Bump*

We should make a petition to try and provide feedback to Nintendo to release this prototype(s) as maybe even for download on the Wii. Zelda 64 ftw.

[Onilink89]

I like it. But the question i'm asking myself is, what is hacked/modified and what is leftover data? i saw so many things that i had never saw before in beta OOT. it always suprises me.

[Petman1325]

Onilink, this is based off of models and HUDs off of THE alpha/beta OoT. Either they recreated them or they managed to go deep inside the ROM/cartridge.

Well i'm no expert but what i meant with my last question is, which is recreated and which is data from ROM/cartridge.
I saw so many youtube vids about beta oot that people just hacked it and modified things on their own for fun. of course thats also cool but, to be honest, i'm more interested about the leftover data thats in beta oot. things that they intended to use in OOT or test things out.

you get my point?

[Chris]

Wow, how do you do that to a game?

When I look at it there are obvious glitches like the shield is screwed up, the sword leaves a trail where it sliced, he has the Forest Medallion equipped, and the areas are messed up.

Can someone please explain to me in detail how this works?

[Judai]

This is the Beta information. Beta OOT allowed you to have the medals equipped, for why, idk. The Shield Also looked like that in the beginning.

It looked pretty neat. The stalfos' looked really cool.

[kpllk]

What is it supposed to be about? I like his Epona more than mine. I also like the shield a lot. Is this like a remake of OoT or something?

Sorta. When Ocarina of Time was being produced, a crap load of images were released.^^ But, half of the things that appeared in the alpha/beta versions didn't make it to the final cut (They were to have Octoroks rather than the Octork, then you have the awesome beta rooms that never appeared in the game...:cry:) Things like the Unicorn Fountain, the rear enterance to the Temple of Time OoT would've had (The path blocked off at the enterance to the draw bridge would've been that way), and the Triforce!

Neither Do I! Ask My Bro He Is Playing OoT!
