How to use the OoT debug rom download link included (voiced)

I forgot to mention you can press right on the D-pad during cutscenes to exit them, and you can press L, R, and Z on controller 1 while controller 2 is plugged in, to enter the map select.
Most people don't know how to do this so I thought I would make a quick video showing how. Also for those who don't know, this rom requires double the RAM of a normal n64 game. It uses 8MB of RAM so put that in your emulator's rom settings.
Download link to all Ocarina of Time debug roms (some basic info can be found in the readme):

Use this code to prevent crashes from opening the pause menu for all debug roms besides ZELOOTD:

D0210BA1 0002

Forgot to reply to this: The download link was updated a while ago, now including all the versions! But the version you want to use for patching is ZELOOTMA.z64.

I made this so long ago I don't even remember the joke, haha. Glad it helped.

[@mercenarkillerx]

Thanks for the rom! I will credit you in my next vid! ;p

[@BruceShankle]

No problem! You can also use it for patching many oot rom hacks, though some of them use 1.0, but if you need that rom too I can hook you up :)

[@Dragorn421]

Hi, I'm from the OoT modding community, you should be aware that the ROM you're providing on download is an edited version, which causes many issues when using it for romhacking or patching over it. (its md5 is 230f62c994ff072a1434df6e65e2dbe0 ) This is kind of an issue for everyone because your video is ranked high in search results when looking for an OoT maqter quest debug rom. I would love if you edited your description to reflect what I said so people don't expect to download a ROM that will suit their needs for romhacking and look further instead. For example "Here's a download link, DO NOT use that rom for romhacking or patching! (details in comments)"

[@BruceShankle]

Dragorn421 Please link me the correct rom and I will add it to the description and describe the differences.

[@BruceShankle]

Dragorn421 Also, my video is extremely outdated, maybe you could make a better one instead describing the controller 3 debug camera and mod related info.

[@michaeldavis9343]

Dragorn421 would you happen to know a ROM that would be good to play the Dark Hyrule Fantasy mod on?

Bruce Shankle Umm, can you recreate links model but keep him like the original but make his hat model as big as Fierce Deity's? Also keep his color green.

No

[@BruceShankle]

Why did you want me to do that anyways?

[@Piggieyt75]

How do you get this to work on Dolphin? I've tried injecting into virtual console, master quest, and collector's edition but can't get it working.

[@BruceShankle]

There is a way to do it actually. Go into the ocarina of time discord server, and search the chat messages (probably search with ctrl+f "debug rom" or something). The message explaining how to do it may be pinned in one of the threads as well. Here's a link to the discord server with the message about how to do it: discord.gg/e8ABhwj . If you figure out how to do it, maybe you can tell me you did it and I can add it to this video's description as well for anyone else who may have the same question as you.

[@Piggieyt75]

​@@BruceShankle There is a tool called GZ (by glankk) that I cannot get working properly. But it might be useful, at least for Wii VC.

[@BruceShankle]

@@Piggieyt75 Oh yeah, I have that too. Start an email thread with me and I'll help explain how to set it up (my email is [e-mail]).

[@Piggieyt75]

​@@BruceShankle Update: I tried it with a clean debug version, and it worked. I mainly wanted to try and get the 2 player working on a console (N64, GameCube, or Wii), but it doesn't boot, so I'll have to live with an emulator for that sort of thing.

yes. if you equip giants knife/biggoron sword as adult, you can then change your age to child and the equips will transfer, causing link to hold the master sword model. you can also equip the master sword itself, but all that does is act like the kokiri sword with no sheath and an extended hitbox

this is awesome.

[@SoraMainSmash]

It's said it has viruses. I'm not sure if I can trust it. Also, it is on GameCube rather than n64?

[@BruceShankle]

No, it says "Google Drive can't scan this file for viruses." You can trust the link, and if you don't trust it, you can download it and then view the contents of the file and check if there's an .exe within that could be harmful to your PC. The debug roms listed here are GC debug roms, mostly for MQ. They were leaked by somebody in the past who was tasked by Nintendo for testing OoT on Gamecube hardware for old Virtual Console releases, but it is perfectly playable on N64 as long as you have the 8MB expansion pack installed (or 8MB RAM in emulator settings). Also, Merry Christmas! :D
