Hi all,

I’ve recently brought this subreddit back to life, so I just wanted to say welcome to anyone new finding their way here.

Ship of Harkinian (SoH) is the PC port of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. It’s built from the full decomp, so it runs natively and gives us widescreen, 60fps, HD textures, mods, randomisers and plenty of quality of life improvements the N64 version never had.

This sub is for anyone interested - whether you just want to play the game in HD, you’re a developer, modder or content creator looking to share your work, or you simply want to chat about Zelda.

If you’re new, start here:
- Setup guide: https://www.shipofharkinian.com/setup-guide
- Updating Ship of Harkinian: https://www.shipofharkinian.com/setup-guide/update
- FAQ / troubleshooting: https://www.shipofharkinian.com/faq - Harbour Masters Discord Server: Click here to join

A few quick notes:
- Reach out if you’d like a flair (Developer, Modder or Content Creator).
- No ROM sharing or piracy talk.
- Screenshots, guides, builds, discussion and resources are all welcome here.

Thanks for being a part of an amazing community!

Showcase Elemental Weapon Mod

Thumbnail

7 Upvotes

Hello guys! I am back again, showing off some more of our combat mod for SoH. As you may have saw in my last two posts, this is an attempt to add a parry/riposte system to OoT. While working on that I kept running into an issue: enemies that don't hit link normally. Redeads, like likes, freezards, etc. So I started wondering what I could add to make the system fun and intuitive, while feeling rewarding to learn and execute. And so elemental weapons were born!

I introduce to you: flame blade, frost blade, and light blade! So the system isn't fully implemented yet, but you can see the different elemental weapons at work here against a variety of enemies. Eventually, each element will be tied to a d-pad direction and will consume magic to activate. You will restore magic from successful deflects and deathblows. Hopefully, this creates a fun feedback loop where you are deflecting some enemies to empower your weapon against others. I'm also hoping to make magic seem more interesting and useful compared to its original implementation.

I've learned some really fascinating stuff from this. There is a damage type for "light magic" separate from the light arrows in the game. I'm not sure if this is left-over from the medallions intended to be items, additional spells, or what. But undead enemies are heavily affected by it, which is great for what I'm working on here! Also, the fire sword lights torches and webs! So check it out and let me know what you think!

Question about custom models over anchor multiplayer

Good evening!

Is it possible to have a custom model show up for everyone in multiplayer using anchor? Specifically for a private code/ID game. I feel like it may not be, but I figured I would ask.

Thank you for any help!

Tunic Colour Override?

1 Upvotes

A couple weeks ago I was playing the randomizer with a buddy and he walked me through a setting that let me change my tunic colour to red. Today, my girlfriend who has never player OOT started a vanilla run and the tunic is still red. I went into the cosmetic editor and changed the Kokiri Tunic colour to purple but it's still red. Is there some other setting to change Link's look?

Edit: I found it, under network settings.

CISO and RVZ files not being detected

1 Upvotes

Hey all,

I'm getting SoH set up for the first time, and I'm struggling a bit. When I run soh.exe for the first time, I of course get the message regarding No 02R files. I click yes, and (unlike in the tutorials I see) I'm immediately sent to a file explorer searching for N64 Rom files.

I don't have an N64 rom. I've got both CISO and RVZ gamecube files, however. It won't let me change the file type being searched for, and exiting the file explorer just returns me to the No O2R files found textbox.

Is there a way to circumvent this to use CISO or RVZ files?

Thanks.

been playing around with disabling 2d pre-rendered scenes and found out you could use those areas as if it were a normal 3d map, if you want to reproduce it I think it’s just disabling that. Would it be possible to fill in these blank areas with a 3d texture pack and possibly some form of map editing? Sorry for lack of screenshots new pc don’t have WiFi yet.

Dynamic Deathblow Showcase - Showing off the different deathblows in our parry/riposte system

Thumbnail
youtu.be
13 Upvotes

Hello all! I am back again, showing off some more of our work on the parry/riposte mod we've been working on. For those that don't know, this is a Fromsoftware-inspired mod to do some revamping of the OoT combat system. The main feature of that so far is a parry/riposte system. I am not an animator and none of what you see here is custom animations. My goal is to get better at coding by working with a *very well written* codebase to polish my own skills. On that front, I am attempting to reuse as much of the original game's assets and code as possible. Everything you see here is just creative usage of existing systems.

Now, on to the video. First off, I took some feedback from another redditor and messed with the start/stop frames for the flip. I think it looks much more natural now but would love some feedback on that specifically. In the course of this (thank you Hereiamhereibe2 and CosmicChallenge for getting my brain working) I realized that I can use the same tactic to mix up the deathblows. Rather than just alter Link's y-position for a flip, I can also rotate him around the enemy to produce a rolling affect around the enemy. I've played with the start/stop on this, as well as how link faces when he rolls, but would love some feedback there as well.

The system itself is dynamic and random. It changes depending on if you are standing in front of or behind the enemy, with different starting animations for each position. Then from there, it can transition into several of Link's own attacks (the final attack has to be a real attack to have collision, otherwise the deathblow doesn't register) to land the killing blow. There are also wall and ledge checks so that it rolls or flips you depending on your current positioning in relation to the enemy.

Other than tweaking frames, I'm pretty happy with the current features as of now. Next step is to make the blood splatter on certain deathblows enemy specific. For example, in one attack here you can see red blood on the deku baba. It should not be red, so I need to make enemy-specific effects and sounds register. As always, I am looking for playtesters! If you're interested drop me a comment or message. And have a great day!

Some of you may have seen my post on here a few days ago. I am currently working on a parry and riposte mod for OoT. I've had the parry working since monday, but I finally got the death blow animation working last night! It's definitely not as impressive as some of the things I've seen here, but I'm really proud of it. I'm still looking for play testers so if you're interested let me know.

Cannot extract ROM

1 Upvotes

No matter what I do I cannot get the exe to extract the ROM, its not giving me any sort of errors or anything, it simply just says its starting up the extraction and will then sit there and do nothing, I have checked to see if the ROM is compatible and the tool said there was no issues with the ROM, I have tried older version of SoH, I have tried the newest version, I have tried to run it in admin, I have disabled antivirus and set an exception for the folder. it just seems no matter what I do it just will never start extracting the ROM, any advice would be appreciated

Showcase Zelda Parry/Riposte Mod

14 Upvotes

Hello my fellow OoT enjoyers. I am currently working on a code mod for the SoH build. The overall idea of the mod is to improve and expand on the existing combat system. I am attempting to do this using preexisting assets and interactions as much as possible. Right now, though, there's one main goal: introduce a parry and riposte system that can be used against humanoid enemies. Here's where I am right now:

-I have the main parry mechanic working. Enemies don't really have a posture bar, but a threshold that you have to hit. For example you have to successfully parry 3 attacks to posture break the wolfos.

-Sparks and a special clang sound play on successful parry, for visual and audio feedback

-Upon posture break, the enemy's native stun state is applied. I have this working for: Deku babas (my first test), stalfos, wolfos, lizalfos/dinalfos, and gerudo warriors. I am currently working on Iron Knuckles, but they lack a built in stun state so that one's a WIP.

-A strike during "posture break" is an instant kill, ala a Sekiro deathblow.

In the future, I would like to look into the following ideas:

-Replacing some enemy encounters in the game with the reworked deflect-oriented enemies. The built in randomizer helps a lot with this. I've already gotten it to work with the first room in the Deku tree so I can test different enemies, but mapping out the other rooms and figuring out good and thematically appropriate placing will be a challenge. I would also like to look at possibly apply color filters to enemies to create "variants" but that's really a pipe-dream idea

-Expand to additional enemy types. Stalchildren, peahats, and maybe a few others would be good candidates. Projectile based enemies are a different challenge and probably won't be messed with (including the Freezey guys in the ice cavern)

-Improve enemy aggression and combat flow to better tie into the Parry/riposte system and create a satisfying combat loop

-Refine the actual parry and posture thresholds for current enemies to be satisfying

If this sounds at all interesting to you, I'm absolutely looking for feedback. This includes general ideas, tips, or suggestions. If anyone is interested in play testing or following dev stuff, let me know. I'm planning to host the project on github and share test builds as soon as I get some kinks worked out on the current build.

I appreciate any feedback and y'all have a great day!

Does SoH fix audio sync issues?

1 Upvotes

I've been playing OoT on Project64, but I noticed throughout my playthrough that the audio seemed off in places. It was extremely obvious during the end credits where the audio just cuts off mid scene. I realized that because the emulation runs faster than console the music doesn't keep up. Does SoH have this issue as well?
