Massive Update - Version 2.1 Launch : Wind Waker & Twilight Princess


Version 2.1 is here and that means Wind Waker and Twilight Princess have been added!!

After Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, the next most logical step was to add Wind Waker and Twilight Princess to the mix.  Two more popular Zelda titles within the speedrunning and randomizer community.  From what I understand, there's even a combo randomizer for these, which is why they were paired together, despite the visual styles of each being quite different.  However, that doesn't stop you from still enjoying them as stand-alone games.

You can now start a run for these titles from the Level Select menu.

Thankfully, most of the architecture for the app was completed with the 2.0 edition, meaning that going forward, it's a simple matter of plugging in new content.  The hardest part was dealing with all the visuals, as well as tracking down information cobbled together from various sources.  Even in an era of wikis and YouTube, finding accurate documentation for everything was still tricky.

For Wind Waker, you can toggle between Pearl dungeons and the mainline dungeons.  There's also the ability to track Spoils and Charts.  For Twilight Princess, you can track golden bugs, poe souls, vessels of light, fishing (including junk items), and yes, even all the Miiverse Stamps.

Another new addition for WW-TP specifically is the inclusion of maps.  While I expect most veteran players to have memorized the layout and routing, these games are especially large compared to OOT and MM.  So the decision was made to include maps that show the locations of all major items of interest.  At least in the vanilla version.  For Wind Waker, this includes Treasure Charts, Triforce Charts and Pieces, Island and Sea Heart Pieces, the Ghost Ship, Rings of Light, Secret Caves, Submarines, Big Octors, Beedle ships, Great Fairies, Lookout Platforms, and Withered Trees.  For Twilight Princess, this includes dungeon entrances, Midna Warps, Heart Pieces, Hylian Chests, Fishing Holes, Golden Bugs,  Hidden Skills, Owl Statues, Poe Souls, and Miiverse Stamps.

Again, these are the vanilla locations, but might still be useful to you in randomizers in terms of checks.

Several people have been asking whether this app auto-updates based on seed logic, and I figured I should clarify right now that it doesn't.  The tracker is purely manual entry.  The reason for that is because Nintendo consoles run on C and I don't know how to program in C.  The best I can do is C#, which is what Unity uses and what I used to make this app.  That said, I have tried to cram as much data into this tiny little app as I possibly could to give you as much information as I can to make your lives easier.  Hope you enjoy it and please spread the word about this project.  It really helps.

Special shout-out to Linkus7 whom I used as a reference for writing several of the speedrunning tooltips, and who also just recently had a birthday.  Sadly, the cake was a lie.
