I found out a way to bring back NPC after glitching out of the Ganon fight barrier and wondered how the bow of light worked against the bosses in Divine Beasts. The save I am using right now is a True Ending save so I finished all of the beasts so I can't test this out myself without resetting. Has anyone tried this? Would you even be able to go into a divine beast?

I could do something of hacking a BOTW save file (obviously on Wii U) to see how it goes , however , the bow of the light works as any other bow with almost any enemy with the difference of infinite arrows and a 100 of strength , so im assuming it would work as any other bow with a divine beast.

I thought that too but there have been cases where the arrows would not affect an enemy or it would not damage them as should have (100 damage).I don't know how much health horses have but they can take two arrows to the body before they die.

Im not sure if this is caused of either a small difference in the Switch and Wii U version , or how some got it (by hacking) and how other people got it (By that glitch in Ganon Fight) , im sure its caused by the glitch on ganon battle and thats why the bow doesn't works as it should , for me , i hacked it after ending the game and everything has gone fine and the bow works as it should.

After glitching out of the wall, please let me know what you do exactly.

I think it is how they programmed the bow. They had to add flags so that it knows when and when not to damage Ganon during the fight so this might be the reason. I haven't had that many problems with the bow and I can't really complain as it is still the most powerful bow even with the problems.

It's funny how the guide claims, the bow is gained after completing the true ending. I am gonna guess Nintendo never intended the bow to be given after defeating ganon and getting the true ending and thus it was patched out in one of the first two patches.

    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot

    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
