2 owls in beta quest

[soniclink2]

hi i`m new here, i was searching for something on the beta quest (pj64) and i found this:

[Hyper190]

hhmmm very interesting indeed

[cooliscool]

Yeah, I found that a long ass time ago. Strange, yes. But then again, nintendo is strange. :)

[Gent]

:blink:

[Hyper190]

what is the strangest thing you guys seen in beta qwest

any reply's

[soniclink2]

what is the strangest thing you guys seen in beta qwest

any reply's

what about this image looks like the cutscene when you learn song of time...

[cooliscool]

This is by far the strangest. An unused pedestal and two tektites in the water. Very glitchy area not very playable. There are also 2 jabu jabu models inside one another, though you cant see that in this shot. Ask Gent, my late hours of beta quest exploring and documenting left him bitter against beta. :saddam: :teehee:

[Hyper190]

Whoa!!!!!! That is creepy HHmmm....

Yo cool you cant get us a better screenshot of that?

2 jabus inside each other

[cooliscool]

Sure. Using the specific things lean code, you can walk around in this area without having to worry about crashing. Most likely because the plane that the f'd up are was on is now leaning up (or down) somewhere. You can see the 2 jabu's fine, aswell. I've got an old beta thread which had some even more weird jabu-jabu shots I made, somewhere. I'll dig it up. :P :bouncy:

[sheik124]

pardon my stupidity, but just what the hell is beta quest, is it master quest? or is it a beta version of the zelda game

[cooliscool]

It's basically a modifier which throws you into a scrambled cutscene, in which the exits lead to "beta" areas, or sometimes areas which run on a different engine version and are calling on the old one (in this case it will freeze, most likely with a TLB error on load/store) In short, it's a way to access lost OoT stuff which we'd never be able to see elsewhere.

It starts you off somewhere in Hyrule field (with no buttons present, no navi, and no history of anything accomplished) where each exit from there has a different effect. I found a code which keeps the buttons and interface off and modified it for a reverse effect. If you want the interface in the beta quest, enter this code into PJ64:

Zelda OoT V1.0 (U)
8011B4B9 00FF
8011B92F 0000

If you need it to stay off, then enter this:

Zelda OoT V1.0 (U)
8011B4B9 00FF
8011B92F 0001

Only activate it when you're in the beta area that you need the interface. Activate the code, then press start. :phone:

[ShadowFX]

How are you guys able to get that far into the beta-worlds. Most of time I try to go somewhere, it freezes.

[Gent]

God I hate Beta :getlost:

& lol @ cool & his Constant Hover boots lmao.

Tried out Master Quest & MM Betas Yet ? :P

[cooliscool]

God I hate Beta :getlost:

& lol @ cool & his Constant Hover boots lmao.

Tried out Master Quest & MM Betas Yet ? :P


Heh.. yep. Master Quest is basically the same with some different exit locations and alot more crashes. ;)

MM simply puts you in an area (or cutscene) and you play around in it.. I searched it for hours and found nothing different from the final version, except some invisible ground behing some walls etc.. but that's in the final ver. too. :( :yucky:

:icecream:

[Gent]

yep the whole thing builds up to a great big almighty {}:{ ;)

Nice to see you around Cool have a great Christmas Man (& say Hi To Mum For Me) :)

That goes for everyone else have a great one !

[cooliscool]

Thanks Gent. It's good to see you around too. I've missed you (so has Mom ;) :P). :inlove: Merry christmas Gent & everyone else! :santa: (what better place to say merry christmas but in a thread about beta!) :robot:

P.S - Gent.. what happened to emu64cheats? :(

[cooliscool]

Here's a shot of a beta version of the Crater. Notice the green map which is also beta. :)

Hover boots effect doesn't look right but I'm not sure if jabo ever did get that working, cause it works with gln64. ;)

[Hyper190]

Kick ass !!! got any more???sceenshots

and are you suppose to enter the beta qwest code before you load the game, or do you hold Z as you go
through a door ???Tell all about it Cool Or Gent.

Because i tried and it doesnt work... help!!!

[cooliscool]

The beta quest code itself? Click it before the game starts completely.

[Hyper190]

The beta quest code itself? Click it before the game starts completely.

and then youl end up in hyrule feild and the explore???

[cooliscool]

and then youl end up in hyrule feild and the explore???


Yep. There are alot of different combinations of codes to get to a "successful" beta area. To get to the funkified Jabu Jabu, use "01" as the last two digits of the beta quest code. Go to Zora's fountain, but don't enter thru the river. You'll see jabu jabu and the ocarina pedestal, but don't walk around much.. it'll crash with nothing sent to the debugger, which is really strange. :shaun:

Here's a shot of the castle w/o the torches and bridge. :) I'll post alot more beta shots today aswell, so stay tuned. :bounce:

[cooliscool]

Playing in the intro. :)

[cooliscool]

Another version of buggy beta jabu jabu. Weird lighting, no ocarina pedestal, 2 tektites. There is also still 2 jabus inside each other, but if I put on the specific things lean code to see it, they look really weird.. and most people here know how badly jabu jabu freaks me out. ;) To get here follow the above process with "02" as the last two digits. :sombrero:

[cooliscool]

Eek shots need fsaa. ;)

Here's a shot of Kakariko Village without the target practice game (the door is there, lmao). :)

[cooliscool]

In a beta version of the ending dance. :)

[cooliscool]

As if I just pulled out the master sword. :cheers:

[ShadowFX]

Cooliscool, I'm really amazed by what you have achieved by exploring the beta quest world. Some time ago I've tried to go 'into' the ending and walk around but instead I end up getting stuck and just 'looking' at the people that celebrate etc.

Maybe it's possible for you to write a guide how to exactly go to places you visited? It would be cool but it's just a request hehe. Anyway, cool stuff.

Thanks. :)

I could probably do that. It'll take a while though, hehe. Lots and lots of beta oddities in my head to put down. ;) :alucard: Expect it posted in a few hours (maybe). :)

:down: i mean :w00t: :shifty:

[cooliscool]

Here's a bit of what I've got down so far.. not even halfway done though. ;) :)

Gent: I'll be sure to give you your credit. :naughty:

edit: updated attachment.. added a few oddities, but I'm still not even close to finished. :cat:

LMAO dont you rope me into this Carp J00 :P

Nah looking good Cool as per.

Infact if you like to suplly some picture points (no bigger the 640x480 Windowed) to the text, I'll be happy to make it a chm file for you

Plus even put it on the PJ64 cheats sites under Cools Beta Guide :)

Yes im still in christmas Spirit :(

:)

Yeah, I'd appreciate it if you'd do that Gent. :beer: Pictures will surely give it a nice, authentic feel. :phone: I'll work on it some more now I suppose.. I hope to have it done today or tomorrow.. but it seems impossible with all the beta I have to jot down. :down:

;) :) :)

[cooliscool]

Here's a newer version.. more oddities and pictures for each one so far. :) But god, those pictures take up a whopping amout of space.. 204kb and there are only about 5.. I estimate I'll be adding about 150 shots.. :sp_canada :geek:

[Hyper190]

Cool you have done it again beutiful. !!!
but how do you turn on the cheat??(included) with pj64
because when i turn it on ,Before i even
load up the game it just starts as normal
(after the nintendo logo)the demo of link and the
horse plays so i know i must be doing something wrong
could it be my save file because im not up to hyrule field
yet. and thats where the beta quest code starts you at??? :(

:(

[Gent]

Im not seeing any pics here Cool.

Could you put the pics in a Folder and link to the from the doc & then Zip or rar the whole thing ?
This is what i see below

[cooliscool]

hyper: Thanks for the comment. :) From what you're saying I think you forgot one tiny step. You need to double click the "play beta worlds" to choose which world you're going to start off in. :)

Gent: the pics are there (double click them to view) but as they're jpeg, they won't view in notepad. If you still can't use them I'll rar em and yada yada. :arabia: :sp_canada :cheers:

Nope i tried that Cool: the doc opens in Word & the error is the file is Corrupt.
See Pic Below.

could you put the pics in a Folder and link to them from the doc (maybe use html isntead) & link the pics to that folder & rar the whole thing :)

[ShadowFX]

The Beta Guide is coming along very nicely. Congrats and I love to see the end result :)

[Hyper190]

yea keep doing it cool.
we all know that when it comes to
beta qwest your the master of that!!!

so lets see some more!!!

[cooliscool]

Gent, how would I use HTML in wordpad? I tried < imgsrc="C:\Documents and Settings\Jeremy Johnson\My Documents\My Pictures\Clipboard06.jpg" > (minus the spaces). All it shows is the text. :plain:

Hyper: Thanks again. Things like that help me do more and more. :)

Here's a minor revision of the guide in a few minutes in this post. I removed the dead pics and fixed alot of spelling, punctuation, and grammar errors. Added a few things too. :chinese:

Hrm ok i see you dont have any web page builders.

In your docs just put (insert picture name or number here) & ill do it to htm for you and then onto a window .chm file

Just make sure you suplly all the pictures in a folder with the rar

Thanks Gent. I owe ya one (or two). ;) :king: {}:{

[Gent]

ROFLMAO @ The {}:{ use :P

[Hyper190]

Is there a way i can walk around in the ending (when your in lonlon ranch at the party) :cool:

Yes. I was gonna make you wait till I ad it to the guide but here you go. :P

Use beta quest world 7 (16). Use the Appear in Strange Places (D01C84B5 0010
8111B936 0001) code. Walk to Lon Lon ranch, and as you enter, hold down R. Keep it held untill you see the dancers. You'll be able to roam around freely. :)

Hmm... Works for me w/ OpenOffice.org 1.1.

[sheik124]

hey guys, try this, in beta world 1 (code 00) when you try to go to the ending, exit the area, you'll come out in the market, and if you go back in that door, you'll pop out infront of the bazaar store in the middle of the market where that fat lady is

[Hyper190]

I must say beta quest is amazing!!!
The fu&king best!!!!
any more beta quest screen shots

[Gent]

Hmm... Works for me w/ OpenOffice.org 1.1.

Thaks Khan getting that now

[sheik124]

sorry for double posting, but heres some screenshots for ya hyper190

<img src=http://emutalk.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=12533>
that one is me inside the deku tree w/o using the adult link code, and with cooliscool's BQ interface on code, i am using the hover boots to float while navi yaps about stuff i already knew.

<img src=http://emutalk.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=12534>
here is the ending sequence with me walkin' through the fire, odd thing though, got there via BQ World 03 (the title screen) while i found it mentioned somewhere here you shoulduse world 7, whatever

EDIT: goddamn, how do you guys put screenshots in your messages!!?!
nother edit: i Got it!!

[cooliscool]

There are several different versions of the ending dance in the beta quest. World 07 just happened to be the one I took a shot of at the time. :stupid:

As far as the guide goes, I've added some things and made some shots, but there's still alot to be done. =]

[ShadowFX]

Well, I don't know if already decided to do the guide in CHM format but I think I can produce a fairly well looking HTML format. How about it?

[cooliscool]

Gent already volunteered, but you can ask him if he needs any help. Thanks. :)

I'll post a big update with all significant beta quest code 00 oddity pictures in a few minutes. Be sure to rad the whole thing over again, it's changed alot. :naughty: ;) Can one of you make a CHM of this version, just to see how it will turn out? Thanks. :beer:

[ShadowFX]

Allrighty, well too bad I never made a CHM before. Anyway, good luck with the guide.

[Gent]

Ok Cool Check Your Pm's again thanks to The Khan Artist
for the Prog i could then get to the pics :P

[cooliscool]

LMAO Gent. {}:{ That's F'in awesome. ;)

Here's an updated one. :bounce:

Kick ass!!! :sorcerer: :teehee:

[sheik124]

holy shait! how in the hell did you get in the goddess cutscene thingy, only cutscenes i have been in are the ending and the beginning (walking around with the startup music in the BG is kickass btw)

EDIT: how did i forget to mention burning kakariko?

This is pretty cool...I messed around with the beta quest a little bit before. I don't suppose you can do this on a real N64 can you? There is a limit on how many gameshark codes you use...

[cooliscool]

Yes, you can, but some codes may have a slightly different effect, or some beta things you'll see via an emu may require a different method on the cartridge. (I know I've used this 1000 times, but it's the strangest thing in beta) Jabu-Jabu in world 01.. you can explore via the Specific things lean code via rom. The specific things lean code has no effect on the actual cart. This is because of how precisely things work.. one little difference in emulation will do that.

LOL sheik124, you remind me of me when I was a n00b to beta. So excited over the minor things. :happy:

Farore: to get here, use beta quest 00, and the Appear in strange places code (I also recommend L to levitate). Go to the normal Kokiri Forest entrance via Hyrule Field. Hold down R as you enter. You'll appear out in the void in Kokiri Forest. Float back into the Arena, then go to the Deku Tree. You'll see a big ass Farore, rotating. Exactly like Nayru, as I explained in the guide. It's not possible to see Din alone, unfortunately..

[ShadowFX]

Yeah that's cool.. it worked. I can't, however, get the Beta Quest code 01 Oddities to work. It's the ?? = 01 code right?

[cooliscool]

Yeah that's cool.. it worked. I can't, however, get the Beta Quest code 01 Oddities to work. It's the ?? = 01 code right?

Yep.. What rom version, and what all codes are you using?

[ShadowFX]

I am using the V1.0 ROM of course. No other codes enabled except for L to Levitate.

[Hyper190]

yo cool you around man??? are you going to let the thread die like this???
or have been playing that new 1964 0.99
i could understand that!!!

[cooliscool]

Still here and working but be offline for a while due to changing ISPs. :(

[-Shadow-]

The Appear in Strange Places code doesn't work !
I got v1.0 US and held R for 1 minute!

[sheik124]

you just held r? that does nothing, z target and hold r while walking into the mention level

[cooliscool]

It isn't necessary to Z-Target but I suppose it helps. This weekend I may release a new guide. I've added tons of things and many more oddities. =]

[sheik124]
