[Optional Patch Request] Increase drop rate of all enemies

Open louisdefromont opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

I think it would be nice to have a patch that increases (doubles) the drop rates of all enemies so that grinding for rupees/hearts is less tedious.

It might be possible to modify the probabilities, but I'm not 100% sure where the data for that is stored. Do you know how to Hex edit a ROM?

Simply open your Zelda 1 ROM in an Hex editor, like HxD, and then press Ctrl+G, and type "1304E" (without the quotation marks. Once you do that, you should see the following: 50 98 68 68

Apparently that's the drop probability. If you can, change those 4 values to something like A0 A0 A0 A0. If my assumption is correct, then the probabilities for all drops should increase. Let me know how it went.
