How about a nice leek in this trying time?

Hmmm...
To do:
Add a description of what this is and how this got leaked.

Unused Objects

Hmmm...
To do:
Currently listed are unused objects that don't appear in the final of Majora's Mask or Ocarina of Time, however there are a number of duplicate objects from Ocarina of Time that may have differences. Load in-game, get screenshots.

Board

A board whose model and textures don't appear in the final. Located in z_majora/data/Board.o.

Floater

A tiny unknown object. Located in z_majora/data/Floater.o.

Kabu02

A tiny unknown object. Located in z_majora/data/Kabu02.o.

Kui

A tiny unknown object. Located in z_majora/data/Kui.o.

Saku

An unknown object whose model and textures don't appear in the final. Located in z_majora/data/Saku.o.

Spia

An unknown object whose model and textures don't appear in the final. Located in z_majora/data/Spia.o.

Stonebridge

A stone bridge whose model and textures don't appear in the final. Located in z_majora/data/Stonebridge.o.

Stree

An object with environmentally-friendly textures located in z_majora/data/Stree.o. Some originate from Ocarina of Time, others are new and don't appear in Majora's Mask.

Tg2

Oh, you thought "Aria" was cool? Object_human is back and better than ever as "testgirl2". Located in z_majora/data/Tg2.o, a sizable portion of this object contains new data that isn't in the original.

Twood01

Twhat twould you do if you saw the tiny object "Twood01" from z_majora/data/Twood01.o?

Miscellaneous

Unused Boot Type

The final boot type is unused. Its name suggests that, originally, Goron Link may not have died instantly upon entering water. The values these boots have are the same as Ocarina of Time's Iron Boots, which would make it impossible for Goron Link to gain faster rolling speed.

Weekdays

MM Leak-week.png

The game was originally planned to span the course of a week, rather than three days. Accordingly, z_majora/data/shape/TEXTURE/DMA_MAKE/WEEK/data contains the following image files, which contain kanji that correspond to the days of the week in Japanese.

  • sun.rgb
  • mon.rgb
  • tue.rgb
  • wed.rgb
  • thu.rgb
  • fly.rgb
  • sat.rgb

The Environment Editor indicates that the final game takes place on the following days.

ようび Weekday Cycle Day
にちようび Sunday Opening
げつようび Monday First Day
かようび Tuesday Second Day
すいようび Wednesday Third Day
もくようび Thursday New Day
きんようび Friday -
どうようび Saturday -

These textures were used on the course selection screen during Spaceworld '99. See here for more details.

Minimaps

This cactus is UNDER CONSTRUCTION
This article is a work in progress.
...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes.
Notes: Upload final textures and compare.

The file z_majora\data\shape\TEXTURE\MAP2\map_grand2.o.bak and the folder z_majora\data\shape\TEXTURE\MAP2\IMAGE\DMA contain some earlier versions of various minimaps.

v2_machimap_00 - Clock Town

This early minimap can only be found in map_grand2.o.bak, as only the final version is present in the DMA folder.

Early Final
LoZMM-v2 machimap 00 texture.png
LoZMM-v2 machimap 00 texture final.png

This version of Clock Town features several differences from the final.

  • There are only two exits to Termina Field, from North and South Clock Town.
  • East and South Clock Town and the Laundry Pool are one continuous map.
  • The Clock Tower is its own self-contained map.
  • There is no land on the other side of the Laundry Pool pond.
  • There is water at the northeast and southeast of the Clock Tower, instead of to the southwest and southeast.
  • The Ocean Shooting Gallery has not yet been relocated to East Clock Town.
  • The exit to Astral Observatory was missing.

v2_dekucity_map - Deku Palace

This early minimap is present in both map_grand2.o.bak and the DMA folder. The filename of the final map, which is also contained in the DMA folder, is v2_dekucity.

Early Final

LoZMM-v2 dekucity map texture final.png

This early minimap can be seen in screenshots of the Space World '99 demo build.

v2_race_map_01 - Waterfall Rapids

This early minimap can only be found in map_grand2.o.bak, as only the final version is present in the DMA folder.

The other maps in this group are v2_race_map_00 (the Goron Racetrack), v2_race_map_02 (the Gorman Track), and v2_race_map_03 (an earlier version of Romani Ranch).

Early Final

v2_race_map_02 - Gorman Track

v2_race_map_03 - Romani Ranch

Early Final
LoZMM-v2 race map 03 texture.png

This version of the ranch features several differences from the final. It could also be seen in pre-release screenshots for the game.

  • There are three exits from the east side of the map, rather than one.
  • The barn is missing.

v2_yukiyamanomura - Mountain Village

This early minimap can only be found in the DMA folder, alongside the final versions of the winter and spring minimaps for the Mountain Village, which are called v2_yamazato_huyu and v2_yamazato_haru. The name of the earlier file translates to "Snow Mountain Village", which matches the scene names of the winter and spring versions of the map: Z2_10YUKIYAMANOMURA and Z2_10YUKIYAMANOMURA2. The names of the final files translate to "Mountain Village - Winter" and "Mountain Village - Spring".

E3 2000

Although the screen text wasn't translated by the time of this demo, most of the texture assets were. The E3daytelop.o object file in the leaks has the day changing textures all in capital letters, which was changed for the final localization. The text for "Dawn of a New Day" wasn't yet translated from Japanese.
