It is possible to use parallel worlds with real hardware on eproms?

I heart that isnt possible to save the game on real hardware?

Coult anyone this confirm?

If memory serves, the saving function wouldn't actually kick in until you found the sword, despite the fact that the menu comes up at any time. As that takes a while in this game, it's possible no one tried to save until after they found it, and wrote it off that saves don't work. It's certainly more convenient to use emulators with the save state function on that particular point.

I used it on a copier and it seemed to work fine Though that's not a cart (eprom) technically.

Sorry for the second question but...

have you the rom file on a Tototek flashcart or what for a device?

You said, not on eproms?! have you try this?

I used a Super Doctor 7 (GD7), which has 32 megabits of RAM. You can buy them from Tototek (or at least you could in the past) but I did not obtain mine from them.

Even if I wanted to try it on EPROMs / EEPROMs I'm not sure how to go about it.

ahh okay.

I search in the internet some info about PW.

Other Sources have written, that when you get the first sword in the game, the save process doesnt work anymore.

Coult check this?

It's the opposite. The save process starts working when you get the sword.

hmm ok.

In fact? It would work on real hardware?

It should work, if MathOnNapkins's results are any indication.

I don't know about that. As far as I know, no one's ever tried it on real hardware. $:-\$

Except for me. (See previous posts). It's not like a Game Doctor 7 is an emulator >_>.

Haha. I have to admit, I only read the newest post before responding. Fixed.

The gentleman I worked with in editing the game script for version 1.1 reported having put the hack on EPROM and playing it thusly. I don't recall him mentioning any problems with saving...

The5thHerring · « **Reply #132 on:** July 12, 2009, 12:43:59 am »

That was me, and I didn't have any trouble saving. I actually have two versions on EPROM carts now -- the original 1.0 release, and an interim script edit that still has a few text display bugs. Both of them save fine, but the ability to save begins after you get the sword, as has been established.

There's one problem, though, that does occur on the hardware and not in an emulator: the intro screen graphics are screwed up. I vaguely recall Seph saying that it's because he forgot to write something to (or erase something from) VBLANK. MathOnNapkins, do you have that problem on the copier? Do you remember what the issue was?

Jeesh, you shouldn't have to post your problem in two threads. Check my answer on the Gaming Discussion one.

RedScorpion · « **Reply #135 on:** August 02, 2009, 07:58:56 am »

i would like to built my ZPW cart.

I use the version 1.1 of the hack.
When i remove the header and split the files, i have 1 file with 1 MB for 1x 27C801 nad 512kb for 27C801. My Question is, can i use the second file with 512 kb or have to expand the file to 1 mb?

work it with 1x 1MB and 1x 512 kb

regards

Nightcrawler · « **Reply #136 on:** August 02, 2009, 01:08:55 pm »

I haven't actually built any carts myself, but I don't think it should be a problem to program the second chip with only the second 512KB of data if it's 1MB in size. . It's my understanding the remaining 512KB should not be accessed in any way and therefore it shouldn't matter what's there.

RedScorpion · « **Reply #137 on:** August 21, 2009, 04:00:40 am »

The game has a bug on the introscreen.
I have heart that it exist a fix for this issue? Has anyone this fix and can upload,please

Sorry for the bump here, but I don't know of any other place to get support for this hack.

Spoiler:

On the 2nd quest and/or the (unofficial?) 1.1 patch, is the path in the lost woods different? RDUD doesn't work, and the sign has questionmarks on all ways except the left one (which points to the right) I got to the sacred meadow once by chance, but I can't figure it out again.

Again, sorry for the bump.

Doesn't seem that way for me... are you in the icy world or normal world?
