would it be possible to make a 2D oot in ZC?

[Fuzzy]

I personally don't believe so, due to overhead switches, BIG rooms, and the Big/Small Link difference, but it did come up often in this.

ye, tehres a couple things that would be really hard for OoT, like the elevation in the water temple i have no clue how i would do that lol:P, and i wanted to make a remake of MM but making all the "mask getting" quests would be a pain in the ass, cause i dont remember any of it so i would have to play the game all over again:P, i might try and do TP, but first i need to figure out if there something thats impossible to do in 2D for that one.

you could make a quest thats Oncarina Of Time themed
and if its themed of a masterpiece game like oot itself then i would say that it would have to
look good and play good orelse its no good.

that sounds like a good idea, ill just make my own zelda game, but in the same setting as oot, but i need to come up with a good story line, any ideas guys?

[Eddard McHorn Van-Schnuder]

WRONG! It's very possible. It would be pointless though, cause the real version will always be better, so I don't see why you would want to play this instead. Also, water temple isn't hard at all... just a little time consuming, like the rest of ZC is in general.
There WOULD be stuff you'd haveto leave out, and/or edit heavily from the original and maybe even replace some stuff... but still, it's possible.

Hmm. I thought a 2D OoT might actually be a challenge. Fighting those bosses without all those fancy techniques... I actually was bored one day and I drew up a rough draft of a plan for remaking OoT. Came out pretty good, if you ask me ._.

[Shoelace]

It is possible. It won't as great as OoT though. ZC has limitations, however, it is possible to remake that whole game. However, most people here rather make their own creative ideas, rather then make remake a game so that it closely resembles the game as it will take a long long long time to do so. But, if someone would spend all of the time to do that, I would play it. lol

I have a solution to big/little Link problem, 2 different quests. You just have to find another Link sprite.
Also is the "lens of truth" even in zelda classic? You might have to have a team of people to make custom bosses though...

[linkootsp]

it is possible with the exception of epona and such.

[Moonbread]

There are lens of truth in ZC. Where've you been since 1.90?

Yes, there are things you may have to take out, but a lot of stuff can be recreated without scripting, just with ye ol' ZC tricks and illusions.

To me, recreating OoT is too much of a hassle. It's much more fun to create your own quest. (Except for OoS )
