Zelda: Remastered (Mesen HD Pack)

[Packers4Evar12]

I first found out about these HD packs a couple years ago but finally got around to trying them out this week. This is by far the best (MegaMan and Castlevania are pretty great, too). The only thing missing imo is something Zelda Redux does, and that's the LttP sword swing replacing the default stab. Would it be possible to implement that? Either way, this is how I'm going to play through this game from now on.

It is probably possible to carryover this from Zelda Redux. It would just take time to draw a horizontal swing for the new graphics. The detail that bothers me a bit with the existing implementation is that Link starts a swing- then it abruptly looks like it ends halfway through what would be a normal swing. There is no follow through. It may be possible to fix this via the features of graphic replacement in Mesen. But, I'm not sure if there would be enough frames to use as an anchor point for the new graphics to make it look correct. In any case, my focus has been directed at another pack for a while now. I'm not sure I will be able to look into this one for quite a while.

A recent version of Zelda Redux has a new swing based on ALttP's, thanks to tacoschip's new code.
So we have the default swing, which is the one you mention, and an optional new one which makes it a full swing like in ALttP, so there's two now.

Good to hear from you ShadowOne333 - I wasn't aware of the other option. It sounds interesting. When I finish with the other project, this may be worth further investigation.

Hi!

So I just found this forum.. I tried installing the hd packs and such. It worked.

Just a problem: the version of Messen I get in the github returns me a bunch of errors when I try to change my inputs.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Which version of Mesen are you using? At this time, I would recommend the dev build of Mesen 2. It was updated not too long ago to be compatible with this pack: https://github.com/SourMesen/Mesen2#development-builds

What is the SHA-1 checksum of your ROM? The checksum should be: DAB79C84934F9AA5DB4E7DAD390E5D0C12443FA2

Also, make sure you are using the PRG0 variant of the USA Zelda ROM.
