after years and years I finally found it. It was THERE! The secret entrance at the Zora Domain! Why is it hidden so well?
>>378921360
... Go on.
I have just enough hope to allow myself to be trolled into keeping this tab open. You have one post to convince me.
It was found long ago, and it looked way shittier than your obviously fake pic.
>>378921360
Just continue the thread man
The only thing that still fucks with my head is that I remember clearly that in the menu screen, the tab with the temple medallions had the tiny triforce in the middle but shining in gold, I can fucking swear with my own balls at stake it was like that, but I guess I was just wrong, never seen it again or anywhere
Too bad Ura Zelda went to shit, would have liked to play for a change
>>378922151
Ura Zelda never existed.
>>378922151
>>378922286
Wasn't it confirmed to just be Master Quest?
>>378921497
>That set
>>378922286
No no, the fan game trying to restore what was left from the DD expansion but then they decided to do their own game thing mod with a new story new main character and new temples and shit, but it all went to shit because some dude was fucking up the whole team and they all just abandoned the project
There are videos and screenshots of that fan game and it looked aceptable, temples were creative but some puzzles were stale and some minor glitches could be seen, but it was supposedly going to bring back the unicorn fountain and the light temple and triforce quest
>>378922464
Confirmed? It was never even in question. The only people who ever believed otherwise are a group of idiots desperate to hold unto some scruple because they have fun machinating misinformation.
>>378922686
Oh well that thing wasn't Ura Zelda so who cares. It'd have been neat if it were what you're saying, but it never looked close to that too me. It was just a knock-off of the ToT from TP but in OoT graphics.
>>378922686
>restore what was left from the DD expansion
except we didn't know anything about the plans for the DD expansion beyond stupid shit like making your own masks
hey guys, I found the old fairy too. Shes found under a rock in hyrool feild

You obviously never played Ocarina properly
>>378924109
And you're obviously ironically shitposting
>>378924192
unironically acktchually
>>378923030
I think it was either they found some stuff or they just went for the fanservice, but can't remember, probably the latter
Haven't Miyamoto or Aonuma spoken about it?
>>378922686
that project was stupid edgy shit from the beginning
>we're gonna add in the stuff from ura zelda!
>like this new oc donut steel protagonist with tattoos!
dumb. most people stopped at that first line and started shilling without seeing the rest of the shit they had planned
>>378923380
What is it about N64 graphics that can make shit feel somewhat eerie?
>>378922521
Sauce me up?
>>378923929
Distinctly remember nothing being there too, you enormous faggot.
>>378922865
Yeah you're right, I remember they showed their 'concept art' the day they anounced it all went to shit and it was a bunch of OoT stuff but dark and red and kinda edgy, TP wannabe like you say, but fuck me, if I knew how to mod OoT I would work my ass off to make at least just one extra dungeon, pour my brains and heart on it to make it close to nintendo quality and still retain the OoT 64 feel, not just copy the art and puzzles from other zeldas
>>378923929
All that's there is a gossip stone.
>>378924507
idk but the invisible walls in mario would give me a suffocating feeling
>>378924394
I remember that one dude from the team went to vent and throw shit at the project the day they cancelled it, it was on the Zelda Informer page and they had I think a whole dark edgy world planned, with dark edgy races and stuff, I'll see if I can find that shit
>>378923929
>>378924556
i distinctly remember the video saying there was a secret with ganon and it was just a screamer.good times
>you can get a karate costume for Link if you talk to the kokiri guy doing punches outside the tutorial maze
>if you go behind Link's house as an adult you can get a revolver from his uncle
I don't know why my dumbass self even listened to any of this.
>>378921360
The Unicorn Fountain is hidden below the ice at Zora Domain, you need to go there as a adult and exploit the out of the map glitch at the Water Temple entrance so you can get in the Zora Domain entrance even though there's a ice block blocking it
Once you'll enter the area you will be set below the ice but BE SURE to put your iron boots or otherwise you'll clip above the ice since you're not meant to be below it.
Once you achieved these steps go on the right where there's a kind of pillar, behind it there's gonna be an entrance. Just get it and voila!
>>378924947
Mario 64 was a good one
>toads only being able to fade into view when you get close to them
>How empty the castle was
>the lack of detail some things had due to being an early N64/3D game
Its confusing though since some levels were comfy as fuck thanks to the soundtracks
>>378922286
>>378922464
>>378922769
When people say "Ura Zelda" usually they mean the beta content from the DD version.
>>378925034
wew it was just a google image search away, there's a lot more, even edgier, I didn't remembered those

>>378924192
fuck off newfag
>>378921497
2 1 3
>>378925687
The only thing I'll say is that I'm curious of how it would have looked in game
>>378925034
it was god awful. they had i think green haired link with tattoos and some edgy fairy. it was so fucking stupid. when people were reporting on the project dying and being disappointed, you could tell by the look on their faces that they saw what was actually planned and felt shame for shilling it.
this ALWAYS happens with fan games. they promise to do something everybody wants, then they start to fill in gaps (if any), and start adding a bunch of stupid oc shit nobody wants, then they keep pushing it back further and further because they need time to add all the extra shit they want, then the team breaks apart because of autism and the game dies.
name it. just name it. its bound to have been attempted. pokemon red and blue with modern mechanics, probably attempted, if so, project died because creators tried to add a bunch of stupid edgy shit and couldnt handle the extra work/didnt know how to do it
>>378925314
Is the unicorn fountain a glitch area?
>>378922521
YO, I WANT THAT SET TOO, GIB
Speaking of fangames, what happened to 3rd Quest?
Last time I checked they took down their little blog site (which they barely updated anyway, despite a couple devs reassuring people they were still working on it on the comments of the very last update), most likely to go completely under the radar, as this was around the times of Pokémon Prism and AM2R being taken down.
>>378926190
Thanks for stating the incredibly obvious, anon who lacks the ability to follow a conversation.
>>378926327
Yeah sorry I had reading comprehension problems for a few minutes.
>>378925983
A leftover from the development, you were also able to use temple medallions as item to warp instead of the Ocarina. The game changed a lot after Mario 64, rumors says the Unicorn Fountain existed so you could get the Triforce of Courage
I have a bunch of the OOT beta build images if anyone wants to see em
>>378923929
My cousin once told me there was a foggy big bridge with a giant crab on the other side.
>>378926618
>august 1997
>a year and 2 months before launch
the game changed drastically
>>378926618
>>378926720
yeah I think thats why so much of it was left unfinished or hidden in the game but not used
>>378921497
I know these are sisters but they look nothing alike.
>>378926618
Yeah man post them they're rad, I especially like the beta lost woods, shit was eerie
>>378926916
They have different dads.
>>378921497

I was dumb enough to believe when someone told me a "turn Epona into car" gameshark code

>>378927143
Oh god, trailer trash. It fits them perfectly.
>>378921360
This shit isn't in the final version of any OoT. This rumor is old as fuck along with this bullshit >>378925314.
>>378925983
It doesn't exist in the final game. Any pic you see of the unicorn fountain is either some early prerelease screenshot or a recreation.
>>378927447

can you imagine kissing one of the Canker sisters and rubbing her swollen belly while she's pregnant with another man's seed?
so hot.
>>378927383
There's a twitter somewhere where they post hi-res renders of the original magazine pictures from back in the day, someone had found a bunch of CDs with files of promotional artwork and screenshots for journos to use.
>>378927383
i remember see this artwork in a club nintendo magazine latam in Chile
>>378921360
wow op what a tremendous discovery
Im back i got distracted playing tekken
>>378924507
I think the reason it came across as eerie is because of graphical limitations. The obscure textures, the muddy colors, the suggestion of a figure, and the semblance of something familiar pretty much left a lot to the imagination. I fucking loved it when I played it.

>>378931159
Looks like it started out looking a lot more cartoony or maybe it was just them figuring out how to model in 3d still
>>378931331
Imagine finding this shit on an old pre web 2.0 website and being hyped as fuck
>>378931393
early n64 texture work really is horrifying

it looked like cities were planned to be a lot bigger at one point

>>378932718
>big resolutions were tough back then
280x204 would look not-small on a 800x600 screen, which would've been common at the time.
>>378925391
I always just thought it was just 1 toad teleporting around.
>>378933112
I don't really have much old beta/alpha build stuff besides this
>>378933292

>>378931331
It's clearly more of a texturing difference than a modeling difference.

>>378933806
>>378933880

I believe they were just testing the engine and the characters on test maps while developing the final maps.

I like to hope that the magazine screenshots were darker than what the beta game looks like because in all the screenshots the game looks very dark
>>378934287
That looks extremely comfy
I don't like the n64 zelda games at all but I love the development of it with SOTC behind it.
Here's a link with unused content on the game made by other autists https://tcrf.net/The_Legend_of_Zelda:_Ocarina_of_Time
You guys hould read this. I'll post just one page, but it's from an interview with Zelda artists published on the Zelda Art and Artifacts artbook.
The same artists who did the artwork did the 3D models and the high-res Mario 64 models while still learning how to do it at the same time.
Incredible skilled artists.
Does anyone know what the mound under the Clock Tower in Majora's Mask is? My brother's told me it was Epona sealed under there after Skull Kid takes her away from you.
That thought always made me sad, is there any truth to it?
>>378935340
No because you just go see Epona later yah dingus
>>378935462
Hahaha Wow, okay. I feel stupid now. Forgot about that.
I never did beat the game as a child though, I just played around on my Dad's save. I used to keep trying items to save her.
>>378935340
you mean this?

Nah, it was like an out of place concrete mound. It's in that cellar past the Mask Salesman, off to the side near a wall.
Other anon's right though, I just never got that far as a kid.
This is the same brother that told me the horse we had to sell a week before just died, so I definitely should not have believed him. I really loved that horse, so I was really pissed when I found out later that she was perfectly fine.

The DD version of Ura Zelda definitely existed, there's even pictures + accounts from RandNet testers who played it.
Or at least there were anyway, they were posted on assemblergames.com which has been down since last year, admin of that site is a faggot who still hasn't brought it back up

Either way, what's with that whole area? There's no story related or sidequest related stuff there, right?
>>378937506
im surprised they kept the assets for the original dungeons before miyamoto sperged out and demand they do them over
>>378937402
there's nothing really. bu the maskman's organ seems to come out of the wall
theres also some weird bubbles in the water
>>378922151
This?
daily reminder that there's in inverted triforce @ the beginning of Majoras Mask
>>378923929
I don't know if anyone remembers, but there used to be a big zelda fansite called The Grand Adventure. A massive fanfic and art section, midis, even a chatroom, and a community run "book of mudora" that was an attempt at timeline and lore explanation long before the hyrule historia. I really do miss it.
>>378939019
Holy fucking nostalgia, I spent hours after school reading through that place. I remember finding it on another site called Nintendo Land or something similar. I used to go down a rabbit hole of Zelda fan sites looking at fan art, autistic fan theories, timelines, and text adventures.
I'll never experience those days full of carefree after school bliss ever again.
>>378939469
Its really sad. This was before the time where you'd have let's plays out hours after a release, and fan theories and gossip was a valuable source of speculation and hints. The original triforce hunt and the bullshit theories were fun even if ultimately useless. I wish I could find some better archive of the old pages, since they even had several interactive "choose your own adventure" stories in html with link.
>>378939959
Yeah the text adventures were my favorite part. I was just thinking about them recently, I remember a lot of them being hilariously linear. Simpler times.

True, the game is unfinished, sadly.
The Wind Temple stuff breaks my heart, but still it is a great game for its time.
>>378942909
I think it used to be a Lost Woods asset, something before fighting wolfos.
>>378942143
+2 reference points
>>378924507
Lack of detail.
>>378922151
You are confused about a hoax image of 98 that had a shining Triforce in the middle of the medallions.
It was around the time of the OoT "Triforce" rumor.
>>378944582
how did you get two zeldas?
Does anyone remember a site called zeldas secret ocarina? I used to spend hours every night studying the beta of this game. I also loved beta quest gameshark codes, i've always wanted to autistically map out all the possible exits.
>>378924507
It's like the opposite of the uncanny valley, where it's close enough to sort of look like the thing it's supposed to look like but lacks too much detail. Your mind fills in a lot of the blanks, especially with fog and blurry textures.
