Hell yeah!  I remember playing this a while back.  Always wondered if you were still working on it.  Great stuff.  Wish my XNA talents were that far along.

Downloading the new version now as I don't have it anymore.  Hoping for great stuff.

Great! Looking forward to hear what you'd like me to improve next (:
There was a small patch today, as such the installer is outdated once again.

Hi all!

I want to show you some of the tools that I've created to build the game.
Sorry about the large screenshots. Is there a way to make smaller thumbnails?

One questions to all of you:
Should I invest the time to include the tools with the game itself? Would that just encourage e.g. cheating?

If I'd redo the tools with the knowledge that I now have.. then I would make less tools but one tool that is better integrated.


Sprite Tool
Using the sprite tool I create the sprite atlas (many small individual sprites are packed into one large file, as seen in the screenshot) and can create key-frame-based animations.



Item Tool
Every single item is defined using this tool. There are many different properties.



Quest Tool
This small tool helps me create the various quests in the game.



NPC Tool
Friendly and unfriendly Non-Player-Character are created using this tool.



For enemies one also has to define what items they can drop.



World Editor
Most of the creation process happens inside the world editor.
The tile view allows you to set tile graphics on many tile layers.



The objects view allows you to add objects to the game. These include sound effects, NPCs, enemy spawn points, lights, and so on.



The events view allows you define scripts in either Iron-Ruby script or a node-based system.



The waypoints view allows you to create pre-defined paths on which for example NPCs can travel.

It looks like a really solid suite of tools there, and I think it'd be a good idea to include them; people might want to make new quests and share them.

I think htis game has a p good base and potential, I think that it'd look better if everything was in one sprite style so there aren't clashing sprites, and if you are able to or find someone who could help you with that I think it'd make the game much better, since clashing graphics can be a bit of a turn off for a deal of players.

@Kami
Good point! Personally I don't really mind it that much. But I see where you (and quite a few few more that had the same complaint) are coming from.
Art-stuff is always hard for me, since I am more of a coder ^^'. If any of you want to team up..? I'd sure be up for it! XD

On a side now about what is going on.. right now I am on the finishing steps of the beta version of my first Unity3D game.
I'll try to complete it this weekend, and then hopefully return to more Zelda coding.

There is one more (GUI) tool that I've forgotten:

Sprite Sheet Tool
A simple tool that is used to create sheets of sprites. These are used by the world editor. On each tile layer you have to select the tile sheet it should use.
The tile layer stores for each tile an index into the sprite sheet. All tiles have a size of 16x16 pixels, and can be animated.

Hey, all.

Hey,

after a long downtime the game is available for download again. It now requires the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6.1.

Some bad news:
I can't offer you an installer anymore. You can simply extract the .zip Archive to any folder.
There haven't been many updates lately because of my limited time for game development.

Some good news:
The game is now open sourced!

Check out the Atom framework here: https://github.com/tivtag/Atom
And the game itself here: https://github.com/tivtag/Zelda



[Game Download]
You can download the game here:
http://paul.ennemoser.com/files/zelda/TLoZ%20-%20Black%20Crown.zip

I recently downloaded the most recent version of Black Crown (posted in 2020), and I'm getting a "Microsoft .NET needs to be installed. Would you like to download it?", which takes me to Microsoft's .NET download page for 4.8. But the thing is, I already have the most recent version of .NET installed.

I moved your topic into the main one. One could call that grave-digging given how the last post was in July 2020 but it's relevant to the topic. Unfortunately I am not knowledgeable about the .NET issue you are encountering.

This is probably requiring an old version of .NET. Considering the original post in the thread is from 2008, you're probably looking at .NET 2.x

EDIT: Try 4.6.1, the original post says thats the version to use

I've tried installing it, but I am unable to because I have the most recent version installed, and I'm not sure how to uninstall/replace it with 4.6.1.

Hi everyone, sorry for the late reply. ::)

I recently upgraded the games dependencies to the latest version, such that you can more easily play it on modern computers.
The only dependency you now need to install is the .NET 6 x64 Desktop Runtime. XD

[Game Download]
You can download the game here:
http://www.files.ki-mo.org/zelda/ZeldaBlackCrown.zipp

You can download the Microsoft .NET 6.0.5 or newer x64 Desktop Runtime here:
https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/thank-you/runtime-desktop-6.0.5-windows-x64-installer

Hope it works for you now. :)
If there is an issue, then you can create an issue ticket on github:
https://github.com/tivtag/Zelda/issues

I was talking to my friend last night, and he was mentioning about how in 1980, he thought the internet would become this amazing place where people from across the world would share ideas. I was telling him about how this project [KOT] has worked, lurching along for years and drawn by different people from across the globe, and he thought it was beautiful. And he was right, it's awesome. :D

Sorry for necroposting, but how do I delete a save file? Not very far into the game, and I tried creating a new save file to replace the first one, but it looks like you can have more than one at a time. I don't see a save file in the game's folder, and I don't see a "TLoZ - Black Crown" folder anywhere in AppData.
