What are the dimensions? Perhaps I cold start sketching out everything on a grid in detail (down to individual rocks)? More georgraphical features etc.
...and the demo is here!

Features:
- Improved name registration, similar to TLoZ. Left and Right moves your selection through the characters (Up and Down don't do anything, so you have to scroll through the list)
- Advanced seasons. Early, Mid, and Late variants of each of the 4 main seasons. For example, early spring, mid spring, late spring, early summer, mid summer, etc.
- Removed shading overlay. It just made everything darker and uglier, and it still looks great without it, so I figured I'd just remove it.
- Improved menu aesthetics (Both the file select and inventory menus)
The next thing I need to do is finish the Equipment and Map menus, and then I'll probably work on finishing the remaining items and adding the equipment.
I thought in TP Death Mountain was to the west of Hyrule Castle.
Hm, judging from the placement of areas this layout seems to ignore Nintendo's official geography of Hyrule. For one Death Mountain and it's mine/city in OoT and TP (If I recall correctly Goron Mountain is the new name for Death Mountain) was to the west of Hyrule Castle/Castle Town and at the foot of it was Kakariko Village. Gerudo Desert in OoT and TP was close to Lake Hylia on the eastern side of Hyrule. Kokiri Forest was to the southwest of Hyrule in OoT. I'll try and make Zora's Domain somewhere near Death Mountain, like in OoT. I say Hyrule Field should surround Hyrule Castle and it's town. From there rejoin the remaining areas.
If we want KoT to look official as possible, we must try to use Nintendo's official geography of Hyrule as to our advantage. The way it is right now, I feel mixed, it can work, but it won't feel like the same official Hyrule. I'm going to decline this one. Sorry if this message came off harsh. =(
