Hacking Injecting OoT debug rom into Majora's Mask wad.

[daxtsu]

Has anyone managed to successfully inject the 64mb OoT debug rom into Majora's Mask? I managed to find a ppf file which can then be used with a tool I found to compress OoT down to 32mbytes, and injected the ROM okay, but when I tried to boot the wad, it froze on the spinning n64 logo, before it actually loads the rom. I'd love to hear if anyone's done it.

i havent tried it myself, but why would you use Majora Mask as host wad?

I heard it might work on Majora's Mask. I will try that in a bit.
Edit: Figured out how to compress it.

If you manage this I would be very interested

If the base debug rom works, then Zelda's Birthday should work as well, in theory, and that's my main goal. It'd be fun to play it on Wii without it hanging(Wii64 just hangs when you exit the house).

ok,ive never mucked with debug stuff so that clears that up

any chance of sharing this ppf file? I did find 'tools' from here -> http://128bit.me/index.php?topic=14266.0 but i wouldnt know where to start on rom compression.
I would also recommend deleting all .T64 files from the Majorah 05.app and using the .T64 files from the ocarina wad(make sure titleid of debug rom is same as ocarina also)

I doubt it would work. The Debug rom takes a lot of extra memory and you have to change quite a few settings to play it in PJ64.

true, ill just do a really quick test, since ive got it compressed to 32mb already - i dont like wasting to much time on n64 vc

edit:well someone made some tools to compress it, and it seems to do the trick, but i give up trying it in VC myself -- z-filenew-windows.zip--> http://rghost.net/39206366
