to large scaled textures, makes me sad.

Download a N64 emulator + the Zelda rom, take screenshots and make yourself your textures :D

That's what I had done when I started my zelda map about the Zora river ^^

mtoboiii8000 mapper16/06/2009 12:02

ndR that is what he actually did^^ The textures are ripped from project 64!

Yes that's true, by using a special plugin it is possible to extract the textures from the game. It's also possible to extract models(not easy).

To demolite: All textures are between 16-64(most are 16x16 or 16x32) which is really low res, but it gives it that authentic oldschool look. I will edit some of the more stretched textures and maybe I'll add detailedtextures.(In zelda they've used a method similiar to r_detailedtextures on the grass texture)

But I need some opinions on making this a 1man map or not.

Pros
- It will be a fun and original map, and more similiar to the zelda style gameplay.

Cons
- Only one person would be able to play the map at once.(public etc)

More fun for recorders perhaps if you make it 1man. But if you want it to become popular you need to make it a "public" map.
I would go for "public" map. Because then both recorders and public players can play it.
But if youre not having a lot of moving stuff or a bunch of buttons then it will be playable on public also.
Never was that in to zelda so i dont know how the original was.

didn't notice this thread until now. you already know what I think of it maegnus :D
I fucking love zelda, can't wait for final version.
I also hope someone makes any of the other towns in zelda.

is there any pc version of zelda? :D wii version looks nice fo me

ndR moviemaker Tournament #213/08/2009 18:00

Zelda on PC?
naaaaaaaaaaaaah and never :D

but you can download an emulator and play the old N64 games, start with Zelda Ocarina of Time, the best game ever imo!

Oldschool?

naaaah it's just that I've grown up with video games ^^
I got my first game station when I was 2 years old, I must have had ~15 game stations and I got so many good memories with oldschool games.

I was 9 years old when Ocarina of time got released and that game simply shocked me, that's all :)
I still play it times by times btw :D

On-topic: FINISH THAT MAP! :p
