So what's the best version to play this in? I'm looking to get back into ZC again, and I want to start over on this quest (This will be my 3rd run...the farthest point in the game that I've reached is the Desert Temple's boss...I remember because it was AMAZING.)

anyhow I just want to know what the most stable version for this game is.

The best version to play a quest in is almost always the one it was made in. I would recommend to stay away from the 2.5 betas due to a game stopping bug in level 3.

Just signed onto the forum because of how great this quest was, and how much trouble the level 3- version 2.5 bug is causing me. From a few posts ago, like April this year, it seemed Shoelace was going to release a 2.5 compatible version of the quest. Did it ever come to pass? The latest version of the qst file I can find is from 2006.

That's weird. It doesn't stop for me. I use 2.10. What version does it stop in?

[Kletian999]

That's the point, the quest was made in 2.10, and something in 2.5 (the version that has the bug) causes the Level 3 annoucement text to hang, immobilizing Link even if you save/quit, bomb yourself to death etc. Since Shoelace said he has a version with various 2.5 bugs fixed, I wanted to know where I could find it (or an edit password and the knowledge to patch it myself).

It's a shame that after completing Pineconn's two major work without a hitch, the next two I try, HoD and Cestria, both seem to have game stopping problems (In Cestria you are unable to hookshot to get the 2nd key in level 4).

Hey, I Ganon's tower, the locked door to the left, I unlocked it, but died. When I got back, It was locked again and now I'm unable to
beat the game. It's such a long quest, I don't want to do it again...what am I saying? This quest is so awesome, I could play it hundreds of times! Anyway, anyone know how to fix this?

I've been playing Hero of Dreams a lot recently. When I got up to the third level, a text string displaying the level's name appeared, accompanied by an A-button prompt; I pressed A to dismiss the string, but the A button remained on screen, and I was unable to move Link anywhere, although pressing A still played the sword slashing sound effect. In effect, I'm stuck, and have to restart to get out.

I'm using ZC 2.5 build 1330. Is this a compatibility bug, and will I have to switch to an earlier version to move on?

[Moosh]

Hero of Dreams ONLY works in 2.10. If you're a Mac or Linux user, I'm afraid that means you can't play. Shoelace said there would be an update, but that was a while ago, so I don't think we can expect it any time soon. If you want to see what you're missing, check Silleycat2's LP on youtube.

Luckily, I'm a Windows user, so that means I'm not hosed. Still, though, Shoelace might've at least wanted to post that 2.5 users will experience compatibility issues on the game's page.

Not sure if this is the right place for this or not, but..

I had something strange happen to me. After Picked up the clock and froze enemies, I stayed flashing and became somewhat invincible after the clock ran out and enemies moved again. Has this happened to anyone else.


I am using the Lost Isle Build for the game.

Well, since Hero of Dreams was released in 2006 and 2.5 wasn't announced yet, that is why it doesn't have a warning on the ZC page. But in defense, it is downloaded in the "2.10" section. At the time, They were just starting 2.11, I think it was called. And yes, it does not work on the later versions of ZC. Or it could, but it is not tested or approved by me.

It is only to be played on 2.10. Even 2.10.2 that was released 2 years later, messes up Level 3.

But I did fix it in my update release of HoD. Problem is, I am not releasing the 2.5 version until 2.5 is released. I am actually working on just a updated version of HoD to be released for 2.10. However, my laptop's keys don't work on ZC. It is a bug I posted on AGN, and they are still working on it. So the strings are still being worked on, and it isn't tested yet. But if you want to give it a shot: http://www.mbwchampion.com/HoD.zip

2.5 bug. Again, I don't know what happens when it isn't played in 2.10. XD

Has to be a ZC bug, because there is no way, that it would have locked again in my design. I just looked and I don't see anything like that. Did you check all of the treasures? There are 4 keys I believe. Like what floor did you get too? Did you get the Master Key?

But anyways, I am still working on the update. However, I need to get my external keyboard.

Shoelace, i remember sometime in this topic that you found the Hyrule Field song but didn't know where it came from: Don't know if you ever figured it out, but I did find the original song: Rivers of Joy by No Angels

Oh cool! Do you know of any Youtube videos that aren't concert footage? It's annoying with the lousy audio recording quality and constant presence of people screaming.

That is by far the weirdest overworld theme in a Zelda game ever...But it fits so well in midi form!
