Using Zelda 1 Editors

EoTN

The long and short of it is in the title. I'm using these 2 programs: http://www.romhacking.net/utilities/605/ and http://www.romhacking.net/utilities/187/ . I'm just getting started in learning 6502, and figured that the fastest way to have something tangible would be to try an editor. What I don't know is if the editor manipulates the code of the game in such a way that it will only work in an emulator and not a cart. So, any advice for a noob?

If the ROM works in an emulator like FCEU or Nestopia without errors, there's a good chance it will work on real hardware.

Nintendulator is pretty accurate, it can run lots of obscure games just fine. I'd test your hack in that to see whether it stands a chance on real hardware.



I think BSNES has supported NES for quite some time, it might be really accurate too.

Unless you expand the Tom or change mappers, you should be fine
