Well i've been ranting about this for the last couple of days, and still no one knows what in the hell i'm talking about. Well all that's about to change.

This is a very short demo that explains it all.(it took me 6:49 to rescue the princess)

It's a bug that someone thought would be a good idea to program on purpose. Well guess what? It's not.

Want to know how to never die? Want to be able to turn even the hardest quest into swiss cheese? Everything is explained once you start playing. All you need is a ZC program, and a stupid look on your face when you realize what's going on. The truth is out there.

So here it is. Demo of Enlightenment
This was made with 192 b182, but you must use a 211 beta!!! 254 works -337 works better. not sure about the rest.

Feel free to post any kinds of questions. I'll drop in frequently to answer them.
If you have concerns, or think this should be changed, please go to AG and let them know.

This is utterly pointless, and the swearing was unnecicary.

I played through with no troubles, and let me say, I don't think this should be fixed, it is pretty nice to know.

Everything is working fine for me. Link does have sword1 in initial data.

So for those who think it's pointless I will explain.
Why use a 2.5 beta for this, Can't I play it in 1.92? The answer is no. You couldn't do this with any other version of ZC. That is the point, It's only 2.5. So if this remains, it will be a "bug" that everyone can easily exploit without much skill. That is the point.

Hi all, don't mind my changing the subject but I don't know where to go to ask this ?

I've been playing Protector of the Damn Universe, and I get a sign "Encounter problem must close" and it's a real draggggg. What's going on? Does some body know?? It's been happening right after I grab the triforce in the past two LVs

This is definitely the wrong place to ask.

But anyway, that sounds like a Windows error.

In the future, Blues Singer, feel free to make your own topic. We won't bite. And there aren't any restrictions on who can and can't create topics. We just like them to be in the most appropriate section, but aside from that it's just like any other form of posting. icon_wink.gif


Anyway, if there's a major bug in a recent beta, remember that it's a work in progress. I only find it worth complaining if a so-called "stable" version ends up being less stable than the "non-stable" versions. (Or if an official stable version is never released...)

No a big deal!!
played this demo and at every room you're entering
they tell you how to avoid getting hurt
stay to the right,, easy with arrows,, etc, etc
no sure if everything you learn here, will save you from another quests
I didn't see a then headed gleeok trowing fire or any super boss in here
those nasty guys,, don't matter if you stay right or left, they hit you
