Perfect Dark: Perfect Dark - MultiPlayer Level Kakariko Village

Sogun Studio proudly presents, in colaboration with GoldenEye Vault, a series of ports of the Kakariko Village map from 'The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time' to 'Perfect Dark', in order to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the franchise.

This was made for GoldenEye before, so check this if you missed it - http://www.goldeneyevault.com/viewfile.php?id=221

The Perfect Dark versions of the map feature some visual upgrades (corrected textures, optimiced geometry, moving windmill blades) and improved gameplay (all PD scenearios and simulants).

Becuase the level was too much for the original hardware to handle it, different versions of the map where created.
-Abandoned - the lightest version of the map looking for the best performance. Try this if you want to play against a lot of sims.
-Playground - some objects have been added inside the houses for cover. 4 Human players can play this one without too much lag.
-Noche cerrada - The inhabitants of Kakariko close their homes in this dark night. Now the insides are protected with doors and windows to add more strategy.
-Stormy - The full version of the map, only intended to be played 1vs1 against another human or one or two sims. Pots, boxes, signs and bushes are back... with rain, thunders and lightings!
-Bizarre - This is a mix of some weird things that happened while doing the map. Broken textures, broken items and broken sky. It lags often, but hopefully you like it!



FILES CONTAINED IN THE PACKAGE

/Projects - Here are the files from the different levels in order to see the map in the GoldenEye Setup Editor. This way you can easily edit the setup if you don't like the default.

/Sky Settings - Some captures of the different sky settings just in case you want to use them for your own maps.

PD_Kakariko.xdelta - this is the patch that needs to be injected in the rom. You must patch the rom using the GoldenEye Setup Editor. You can download it from:
http://www.goldeneyevault.com/files/tools/setupeditor21/geeditsetupeditorinstaller2.exe

or

PATCHING THE ROM

-You will need the 'PD_Kakariko.xdelta' patch and a unflipped 32MB rom of 'Perfect Dark', version must be NTSC 1.1. A *.v64 rom should work.
-Open the GoldenEye Setup Editor.
-Go to 'Tools', then 'Switch Editor Game (GE/PD)'
-Go to 'Tools' and then to 'Xdelta Patching'
-Select 'Apply PD xdelta Patch'
-Select the original 'Perfect Dark (1.1)' rom
-Select 'PD_Kakariko.xdelta'
-Save the new file 'perfect_dark.rom'. You can rename the file after creating it, but you must keep the .rom extension.
