I have an everdirve, and it uses eep, srm, and fla save files, so you have to add the right extension for the save to work. how you know is based on the size of the save. the everdrive itself will create the appropriate saves, this is for saves from the cartridges, I believe. all my saves work. not sure if the endianness is the same, but I think they were both big endian when I injected a ds save on the wiiu itself. I don't recall if it was from an emulator or a flash cart.

Actually I think this maybe more likely to work.. https://github.com/DarkMatterCore/sbn64 :)

I doubt this will work. All of the N64 save swappers will just swap all 32 bit words of the save file, since I guess some emulators store them swapped in sram. We'll need something which actually parses the OoT save file and handles byteswapping of the individual variables in the save file though.

I know that the wiiu doesn't do much with padding or the headers that some emulators or flash cards might do, so he could essentially delete that stuff. maybe compare each version if that stuff exists. I don't really know. strange that no one has created a tool for something like this.

So far the Port works great. Minimal issues. Thanks again to all involved in this project.

To be fair I was assuming that SoH just uses the same save format as a N64. Turned out I was wrong with this. So no tools exist as the format didn't exist before SoH.

Anyway, @GaryOderNichts wants to look into creating such a tool. Also the question for a compatible format between all SoH ports is on the table (till now nobody replied to it through).

BTW: The table is SoH Discord. ;)

I got stuck in there for a while in the nso version, but I figured it out eventually. it's not really that bad once you find where to go, but I must say, shadow link was a major pita. I was just mashing buttons hoping to kill him, which I did eventually.

The trick is to _not_ use Z targeting. As soon as you press the Z button to target him he'll be faster than you (jumping onto your sword and stuff like that). Or simply use the biggorons sword.

I actually don't have the biggerons sword. not sure how to get it, since I've been playing without a guide. missing tons of stuff, I think. I know I'm missing one bottle, many heart pieces, a few upgrades, and that sword.

That's no prob as this is an optional item not needed to end the game.
I've been playing without a guide
So you're playing it as it's meaned to get played (the whole game is made for you to explore it slowly. There's a reason they tell you to talk with every NPC multiple times, for example. All the people telling this game is too short are just playing it wrongly) and how we played it in our childhoods on N64s (there was no such things as googling a guide back in the days. All we had was thin hints from gaming magazines and exchanging experiences at the scools playground). ;)

Exactly this!! Coupled with remembering stuff from back in the day, I'm enjoying slowly going round it again and finding forgotten stuff!

Yeah, can't beat Ganon's second form. I've been playing all new games without a guide until I beat it and everything I uncover like optional bosses. I might use a guide after that, but I'm hesitant to use one on odyssey. I managed to get 843 power moons on my own, but I would like to get the rest someday.

I just passed the game 100%, all skulltulas, all submissions, all heart containers
There are some things i might want to point out:
* The game has Just a few acceptable visual glitches on pause menu sometimes.
* In Child time: Pierre the Scarecrow crashed the game after recording a song due to cvars.cfg (quick solution: move away the cvars.cfg from the game folder, record the song, and copy cvars.cfg back)
* Frog's song was so damn fast to catch, i had to find the sequence on google to be able to keep up with them, If by somehow you can make a fix to make it slower, that would be great.
* At the ending scenes, Epona gets stuck at the right corner of the screen
* IMPORTANT: Epona stops showing in Hyrule Field after you call her with the Ocarina. You can hear her, but she doesn't show up. Solution so far is to call her from Gerudo Valley, or Lake Hylia and then she arrives at your location without any problem. I had to unmount her at entry of Kakariko, or Hyrule Castle, and she stays right there when i go out. But if I call her when she is out of sight she never shows up and literally disappear from Hyrule Field.
* 23 years later, and i still get goosebumps when i hear the reDead's screaming

I just played the game and I just got to the part when you start playing with adult link. My game didnt crash with
Pierre and Epona does appear in hyrule field and I'm using the cvar codes that V10lator posted here:
No. Available langages are english (0), german (1) and french (2). You can change language by setting gLanguages at the cvars.cfg file like described in the OP.

//EDIT: To all: I made a cvars.cfg showing all available options at the time of writing and setting them to values I like:
Code:
gDisableLOD = 0
gDebugEnabled = 0
gPauseLiveLink = 1
gMinimalUI = 0
gRumbleEnabled = 1
gUniformLR = 1
gNewDrops = 1
gDekuNutUpgradeFix = 1
gTwoHandedIdle = 1
gVisualAgony = 0
gLanguages = 0
gTextSpeed = 3
gDpadPauseName = 1
gDpadOcarinaText = 1
gDpadShop = 1
gFixDungeonMinimapIcon = 1
gTextureFilter = 0
Explaining the values:

gDisableLOD is for disabling level of detail reductions. DO NOT ENABLE as this is currently broken!
gDebugEnabled enables debugging functionality. You don't need that.
gPauseLiveLink animates Link at the pause screen instead of showing a static image.
gMinimalUI enables some form of minimal UI. I never tested this and guess you don't want this.
gRumbleEnabled enables rumble. Should work nicely with latest nightly.
gUniformLR fixes a cosmetic issue at the pause screen.
gNewDrops replaces low poly drops with the 3D models you see when taking something out of a chest.
gDekuNutUpgradeFix fixes a game bug where you can't ugrade your deku bag anymore.
gTwoHandedIdle better idle animation when holding a two hand weapon.
gVisualAgony visualises the stone of agony. You might want to enable that in case you have rumble disabled.
gLanguages sets the language, see above.
gTextSpeed 3x text speed (like in OOT 3D).
gDpadPauseName allows you to navigate the pause menu with the dpad.
gDpadOcarinaText allows you to play the ocarina notes with the dpad.
gDpadShop allows you to navigate through shop items with the dpad.
gFixDungeonMinimapIcon fixes dungeon minimap icon missplacement.
gTextureFilter isn't used yet but will enable 3 point texture filtering in the future. 0 = three point, 1 = 4 point. Right now it's forced to 4 point / the setting is ignored.
but i created the otr using this Gui from here:
@T00nist8 and everyone else having issues with OTRGui, please try if the attached build fixes the issues you were having.
The Otr file that was created from this Gui weights a little bit more than the one created from the Github. I didn't test the frogs need to beat the forest temple i guess.

Also, King Dodongo had weird glitchy eyes some numbers appear, the Armos when he jumps he has some snowy or white dots that falls from him but only when he jumps and the Goron's have some weird animation at the start of them getting up like they make like a subtle 360 from down to up and then the animation looks normal.
