Proto:The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time/Late 1997 Overdump/3D Maps

This is a sub-page of Proto:The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time/Late 1997 Overdump.

To do: Let's get to workǃ It might be better to document photos in-game rather than through xdaniel's outdated DLviewer tool from 2010. Converting from F3DEX to F3DEX2 will be necessary. Furthermore, most of the featured videos are outdated as the actors associated with the maps weren't imported with the map itself for the video showcase.

First Dungeon (fstdan)

As the name implies, it's perhaps the first dungeon area the developers ever designed. It looks like an earlier form of Ganon's Tower. This dungeon was also present in the iQue leak without its collision data. The offsets in the ROM (F-Zero included) for the scene and its rooms are in the table below.

Proto	Final

This is the main room of the dungeon, noticeably longer than the final version's; there are four exits/alcoves on each side of the room, instead of three, and they're all well in front of the dodongo skull. Additionally, there are three pillars separating the skull from the central platform.

The room where you fight regular-size dodongos for the first time. The early version only features two exits (meaning no side rooms) one of which is much longer, straighter, and connects to a different part of the room.

This is the room with four Armos around a pillar with a ladder. In the early version it features baby dodongos (whereas the final has Keese and bomb flowers instead). The most interesting difference is that, in this early version, this room is on the first floor on the other side of the dungeon, connecting the lizalfos room and dodongo room (room 4).

Room 6

This room has no clear equivalent to the final dungeon, the closest conceivable match being perhaps the room directly behind the dodongo skull in the final (though this room is instead connected to two of the right-side exits of the main room). It features three exits, one of which is slightly elevated, and another high up on the wall.

Room 8

This curious two story room features two hallways at 90° angles from each other on sepearate floors. According to the collision data, the lower hallway connects the baby dodongo hallway (room 1) and the lizalfos fight room. The upper hallway is ramped on one side and has a hole to the lower hallway. The level end connects to the high-up exit of room 6, and the ramped end connects to... nothing? Either this stage of development had no clear idea for what would be at the other end, or this was meant to be a second entrance into the dungeon.

Room 9

Proto	Final

The boss room (and chamber above it) look much the same as in the final, the main visual difference being that the upper chamber would lose its brick construction and look a bit more cave-like. Aside from the fact that this early version of the game put the boss room in the same scene as the rest of the dungeon (as opposed to the final game's strategy of having a separate scene for the boss fight), this room used to be directly connected to the dodongo skull of the main room, leaving all of the in-between rooms absent at this stage of development.

Collision

This is an early shop design that, like the shops of the final game, made use of a prerender. While the prerender for this shop is missing from the overdump, the iQue leak has a prerender that matches this scene's model; it suggests this shop would've been a panoramic room, rather than the fixed-camera setup of shops in the final game.

Hyrule Field

There are two very different versions of Hyrule Field present in the overdump: the earliest in the ROM is one that is quite close to the final version, and was specially modified for visitors to Spaceworld 97 who would play the demo; the latter a much older variation that clearly incorporates even older models and visually seems to come from the same planning stage that other overdump maps like Kakariko Village do.

Along with the final game and the collision data found in iQue's zelda_tool_rom.o, we can get a surprisingly detailed look at how the center of the game world evolved over time:

zelda_tool_rom.o		From the iQue leak, surviving only as collision data, this version of Hyrule Field only features the castle surrounded by walls, with an exit at each corner. It's hard to tell if this was even meant to represent the whole field, or was just the castle portion being worked on separately. The exits at each corner would suggest a Hyrule Castle in the center of the world, like in previous games, though this is early enough in the design process that the exits might just be the result of lazy copy-pasting.
Mid 97		The Hyrule Castle model from zelda_tool_rom.o was clearly adapted to fit into the north side of this version of Hyrule Field, called the "Mid 97" version because that appears to be around when the field was first added to the game. The texture choices and the use of the generic stand-in house suggest that this is a "planning stage" map, where the basic shape of the area and positioning of its exits were the most important parts of the map.
SW97		This version of the field is either extensively reworked or done from scratch, in either case resulting in a map that would be much closer to the final game's. The exits in the "planning" map are mostly unmodeled, existing just as protrustions from the main portion of the map. Since this version was playable at SW97, most (if not all) exits were blocked by special demo fencing.
Final		The final game's map would properly model all the exits from the field, as well as remove any polygons that would never been seen by the player. The 3D castle model in the center of the castle walls was finally replaced with a prerender as well. One interesting note is that all the overhangs in the landscape were only added after SW97; up to that version there was no terrain you could walk under.

Actors and Objects

While the earlier mid-97 map has no actors or objects, the Spaceworld 97 version does (not surprising since it was meant to be played at the event). It features a variety of actors and objects, some of which may only exist for demo purposes. In particular, the soldier, cuccos, and generic horses would not be present in Hyrule Field in the final game.

Detailed Comparison

Hyrule Field is a big enough area that it's worth taking a closer look at various parts of the world to get a better idea of just how things changed over time:

Mid 97	SW97	Final

The initial mid-97 design for the exit to Gerudo Valley shows that there was initially an entire second river on the west half of the field, starting from the west wall of the Hyrule Castle area, that would need to be crossed to get to the valley. However, because this is a very early map, this may not be a literal depiction of the field. It's entirely possible that this is just representing the river that runs through Gerudo Valley itself (it's not hard to imagine that plank of wood over the river representing the bridge in the final game's valley).

Later on, in the Spaceworld version, the Gerudo Valley exit is just a trapezoidal bump in the map, identifiable only by comparing this map to the final game. The Spaceworld fencing shows that even though the valley exit wasn't properly modeled, there was at least an exit (in the technical sense) in place that you could walk into to go to the valley.

Also of note is the series of low walls just outside Gerudo Valley, which seem to be meant for jumping over with Epona. It would get replaced with the protruding cliff seen in the final version of the map, and it's impossible to say whether these low walls weren't just there for demo players to mess around with Epona.

Mid 97	SW97	Final

As can be seen here, the basic idea for the exit to Kakariko Village was in place fairly early: a bridge over water to a path that goes up and to the right. The spaceworld version would temporarily lose all that detail before having the exit back in place by the time the game came out. The final game would also add Death Mountain in the background and the overhang across the river.

Mid 97	SW97	Final

The only exit missing from the Mid 97 map is the Lake Hylia one, though this depression in the southern part of the map, and next to the west river, may well represent the lake in rough terms. The Spaceworld map would fare better in at least having another one of those nondescript trapezoids where the exit would be, complete with demo fencing. What's interesting here is that the broken footpath by the exit used to have a series of horse walls where the path breaks, which aren't there in the final game. These could just be there for demo players to jump over, or they could represent an early version of the barriers that block the exit in the final game.

Mid 97	SW97	Final

The single generic house in the earliest version of the whole field most likely represents Lon Lon Ranch (or what would eventually morph into it), especially when you take into consideration the fenced off, vaguely farm-like bit of land next to it. This house is however placed way to the south of the field, when Lon Lon Ranch would ultimately be much closer to center.

Starting with Spaceworld 97 the ranch is where it should be and largely the same as in the final, though the ranch house and decorations had yet to be added in, and SW97 naturally fenced off this exit too.

Mid 97	SW97	Final

The Mid 97 version of the exit to the Lost Woods is, unsurprisingly, just a dirt path into a cardboard forest. The Spaceworld version of this exit breaks the trend for the SW97 map by actually modeling the log tunnel you'd exit through, though it would take until the final game for the bend in the path and decorative trees to arrive. This exit is fenced off for Spaceworld too, though it's a little strange when you consider that Kokiri Forest was also prepared for demo players, and also fenced off any access to the Lost Woods. (Though as you can see on this page, there was only a very early Lost Woods that was probably considered unsuitable for showing off the current state of the game.)

Mid 97	SW97	Final

The exit to Zora's River changed perhaps the least of all the exits. A dirt path leading up to the source of the river in the Mid 97 shows that this was intended to be an exit from the beginning, though the fork in the river and the bank to walk on hadn't been modeled in yet. The SW97 version would see the fork in the river (which just ends abruptly) appear, along with at least part of the riverbank. The final version of the map adds the rest of the bank and turns the exit into a tunnel. The fork in the river now ends in a very tiny lake instead of simply stopping.

Mid 97	SW97	Final

If you ever wondered why Hyrule Field had a relatively secluded bit of land in the northwest that didn't amount to much, these earlier versions of the field give us some clues as to why. The earliest version shows that there used to be an awfually interesting door stuck in the western wall of the castle area. It shares the texture of the gravestones in the early graveyard, though it may just be here because it looked enough like a door for early modeling purposes. The most obvious thought is that this was for sneaking into some part of the Hyrule Castle complex (either an early version of sneaking into the castle itself, or into some other part of town), though it's hard to make any definitive conclusions.

The Spaceworld map is where things get interesting. The river pouring out of the wall is gone, as is any other kind of variation in the geography. The plain flat area combined with the demo fencing suggests that there was some kind of exit here, likely an evolution of the idea the secret door from earlier represents. The final game would reintroduce the river (though now ramming through the cardboard cliffs surrounding the field at its earliest opportunity), and of course leave this area of the map without purpose, save for a single optional grotto.

Early Kakariko Graveyard

This is an early rendition of Kakariko's graveyard, when it seems all that was figured out was that there would be a lot of graves, with one grave in the back being particularly important. The graveyard is surrounded by walls with a brick texture that's highly susceptible to forming moiré patterns.

ROM offsets for the scene and room:

File	Begin	End
Scene	012D2DF0	012DB1E0
Room 0	012DB1E0	012E8A70

Of particular interest is this detail in the back wall, which seems at odds with the rest of the graveyard (and rest of Kakariko Village's) general "planning stage" look. What makes it more bewildering is that it was carefully designed to line up with the brick texture, to make it look like specific bricks were left out of the wall or meticulously removed.

Because the two Kakariko maps generally look like they come from a stage of development that was most concerned with figuring out the basic layout of those maps, and the ways you could exit to other maps from them, it seems unlikely this is just a bit of decoration. A more likely explanation is that this is an early idea of what would eventually be the way into the Shadow Temple. Another question is if this break in the wall was planned to be visible from the start, or if some actor for the missing bricks would've initallly hidden this (there's no such actor present here, though it may just be too early in development for them to have bothered with it yet).

The actors and objects here are, simply put, weird. While the skulltulas are thematically appropriate, the baby dodongos are decidedly not. There's also a goron object and animations for it loaded, but no actor to make use of them.

Lost Woods

This is an early version of the Lost Woods, where it just appears to be a simple forest area. There are three tree log exits, and two open-air ones. It's not clear how the maze-like aspect of previous lost woods would've been realized on this map.

There are many actors in this area, the vast majority of which belong to the generic "field objects" actor. (This is why the object table is much shorter, since the objects that actor uses are all in the gameplay_field_keep object that's always loaded outside of dungeons.) Interestingly, there are peahats and an adult Epona here, suggesting that perhaps this map was less "Lost Woods" and more "heavily forested part of Hyrule Field" at this point in development.

This graphic shows the position of all the "Field Objects" actors, as well as icons for all the other actors. This actor was one that was designed to handle the presence of any number of interactive elements in a non-dungeon area, with a value known as the "variable" choosing what each instance of the actor actually is. Because the portion of the ROM that holds actors was overwritten, it's difficult-to-impossible to discern just what these things were, only that the actor was used to represent different things in different parts of the map.

Kokiri Forest - SW97

An early version of Kokiri Forest that comes some time between the final game's version, and a version found in the iQue leak under the name "Spot04_OLD" (which appears to be older than the other two). The evolution of Kokiri Forest can be seen in the images below:

Source	Image	Description
iQue		This version is radically different from the Kokiri Forest we're all familiar with. The houses seem to be spread out among two distinct section, a ramp with a banner overhead separating the two. A field of pillars stands before the Deku Tree, and there's a lack of any kind of puddle. Interestingly, the texturing and general design looks remarkably similar to the Lost Woods map in the overdump, even though this iteration of the forest has been replaced!
Overdump		Here the shape of the forest is essentially the same as the final version. Aside from the large fence that only exists to keep Spaceworld participants from reaching certain parts, the main differences are the lack of a crawlspace to the south, and the final's exit to the Lost Woods instead has a house at the top of the cliffs. (Presumably the exit to the west used to lead to the Lost Woods, instead of Hyrule Field.)
Final		The final game sees the addition of the aforementioned crawlspace and Lost Woods exit, and the buildings now have a much lighter wood texture and are all uniquely shaped. The northern cliffs have been simplified a bit as well.

The only elements that survive throughout all these design changes are the Deku Tree, the idea of tree-trunk houses, and (interestingly) the series of cliffs to the north edge of the map.

This image shows where all the "Field Objects" actors are, color-coded by their variable value. The most interesting thing that can be reliably gleaned from this is the presence of two rings of objects on either side of the path, each with another field object in the center (though each ring has its own set of variable values).

Early Lake Hylia

A version of Lake Hylia that's far more basic than that in the final game. Note that the fishing minigame hadn't even been invented by the time of Spaceworld 97, so there's no representation of it on the map. Only a house representing what would end up being the Lakeside Laboratory exists here, as well as a very square body of water.

Curiously, there appears to a cliffside path down the west edge of the lake itself, to the corner of the map. It's possible, though hard to say if so, that it represents the final game's path to the lake's Water Temple island. (At the very least, its starting point is in the same spot relative to the lab building.)

And even though Aria is the only Hylian NPC in this map, there are two Hylian women objects loaded in addition to the Aria object.

Water Pool

A simple pool surrounded by cardboard trees on all sides. It features no actors or objects, so there's no telling what this map was originally designed for. Just based on its general shape, it's possible this map was later used by Kazuaki Morita to implement the fishing minigame.

Gerudo Valley

An earlier version of Gerudo Valley, featuring most notably a second path on the far end of the bridge, leading into a desert area. The presence of Leevers on this map indicate that the sandy area was meant to be traversed, and not just serve as a backdrop for a scene exit. It's possible this desert would later become the Haunted Wasteland.

Interestingly, there's an overhang supported by a pillar that served as a kind of visual separator of the two paths, a geographical feature that managed to survive into the final game. It appears they got rid of the desert by simply closing up the hole in the rock wall.

Additionally, there are more tents than in the final game (with only the one on the far end of the bridge surviving). They are of a different shape from the one in the final game, and feature Gerudo writing on them:

Gerudo	Transliteration	Japanese	English
	suna, ᵒₙ minzoku	砂の民族 the vertical text is assumed to represent "no"	people of sand

	geldo,s typography	n/a	Gerudo's Typography also seen as a header on images describing the Gerudo alphabet

The only other noteworthy difference from the final game is that the entrance from Hyrule Field is completely level ground, missing the small ledge and slanted plank of wood to go up it.

Hyrule Castle

A simpler version of the area in front of Hyrule Castle. The path to the castle is just enough to have a branching path to the fairy fountain, and is missing the gatehouse among other features. Additionally, there is no door by the secret entrance for the guards to kick you out of.

Death Mountain Trail

This iteration of Death Mountain Trail is remarkably similar to the final version. The main differences are detailed below:

• 

  There is a lack of any entrance to Goron City, though the space where it would be is still carved out.

• 

  The view of Kakariko Village mirrors the way its map in the overdump looks.

• 

  The Fairy Fountain entrance is missing from the summit. Only the Crater entrance exists at this time.

• 

  A fence at the foot of the trail shows that this area was specially prepared to be shown off at SW97.

Additionally, none of the bombable alcoves are present in this version of the map.

The two NPC Manager actors are likely Gorons; the 1310 actor specifically names Spaceworld 97, another sign (along with the fence) of this area being presented to demo players there. Another noteworthy item is the Armos object (without any actor to use it), which doesn't show up anywhere near the trail in the final game.

Death Mountain Crater

This version of the crater hasn't been fleshed out yet, with only the path from the top to the Fire Temple designed, which features a zig-zagging ramp down instead of a climbable cliff by the top entrance. The Fire Temple entrance is a set of stairs, instead of a ladder down. Aside from that, there are only two other exits from the map, which seem to match with what would later be the summit entrance and the Goron City entrance (though it's hard to say what they were connected to in this ROM, since there's no Goron City and a couple of mysterious Death-Mountain-themed maps that didn't make it to the final game).

Interestingly, there are no actors or objects present in this map.

Stalactite Cave

A small tunnel with a widened area where stalactites hang. This map's position in the ROM (next to other Death Mountain maps) hints at it belonging to that part of the world. Aside from that, this area has no identifiable equivalent in the final game, so its purpose is a mystery.

Death Mountain Caverns

This maze of twisty little passages has no equivalent in the final game. The texturing of the area, in particular the red glow at the bottom of its pits, suggests that it was part of the Death Mountain area. There appear to be two exit passageways at opposite ends, but it's impossible to say anything more how this map would've fit into the larger Death Mountain portion of the world.

The map itself contains a series of tunnels forming a kind of maze, surrounded partially by a deep pit into (implied) lava. Some of these tunnels lead to cliffs overlooking this pit. There are in a few places markings painted in red on the walls, either "X"s or arrows pointing to some unknown place.

The most interesting actors here are the two octoroks, which make no sense in a map without any water. This could mean that the octoroks here were placed when they were of the more classic land-traversing variety, which if so means this is only the second piece of evidence for them ever existing. In addition there are objects loaded for the Slime, Shabom, and Tektite enemies despite no such actor existing.

Hyrule Market

collision

This is one of two Hyrule Market maps found in this overdump. Because the Market uses prerendered images to illustrate the area, the only geometry that's there is to hide parts of 3D models when they're meant to be behind some part of the prerender (thus making it hard to figure out what much of the geometry is representing precisely). And because all but a couple of Kokiri Forest prerenders were lost to F-Zero X, the textureless geometry is all we have.

What can be seen, at least, is that the general design of a bunch of buildings surrounding a fountain was already in place at this point in development. There are also a number of pillars around the edges of the area. The one building (or lack thereof) that can be seen is the absence of the final game's two-story building with outdoor stairs.

What's notable about this version of Hyrule Market is that it only contains Hylian NPCs, all of whom give hints about the world more that wouldn't be out of place from Gossip Stones. Most interesting is the actor of variable 1F05, who gives Death Mountain the alternate name of "Mt. Hebra", a detail that doesn't exist in the final game. If that name sounds familiar, it's because they'd finally use it for the Hebra Mountains in Breath of the Wild 20 years later!

Hyrule Market 2

This is an alternate version of Hyrule Market, the main visible differences being a slight stretching and squeezing of the overall geometry, and the pillars in the previous map are either missing or replaced with much fatter columns.

Because the prerendered images for this map are missing, it's difficult to tell what this place looked like, or how it differed from the previous market map. Even the question of whether these maps were of the Market in different states (and thus would both show up in-game), or a single map from two different points in development (like the multiple Hyrule Field maps in this overdump) isn't easily answered.

The only difference in actors here, compared to the other Hyrule Market, is the addition of a single soldier (along with the object for it). The object list is mostly the same, aside from the aforementioned soldier as well as the Kokiri & Goron Animations missing from this version. (In addition, there's a Bazaar Proprietor object that doesn't appear in the previous map.)

Fire Temple

This early version of the Fire Temple will in many ways look quite familiar to those who have played the final game. While many rooms are simpler in design, and some rooms are missing, there's nothing wildly different from the final game. That doesn't mean that what differences are there aren't interesting or obvious, however.

The major overall differences include the lack of any "Goron prison" rooms, which shows that the kidnapped Goron plot thread hadn't been implemented yet. Additionally, the corresponding rooms of the temple's two towers match each other much more closely than in the final game.

In terms of visual style, the overdump's Fire Temple is red (to the final game's muted browns and yellows) and dimmer than the final game's, with the lava being much more vibrant.

Rooms

Room 0

Proto	Final

The entrance room of the dungeon is missing the doors on the lower portion (meaning the rooms they lead to are absent too). The stairs are missing their balustrades, and a pair of pillars stand at each side of the staircase instead. The room and the entrance from the outside world would get longer by the time of the game's release.

There are no actors in this room, and only two objects: the object holding all manner of Fire Temple features, and the Dancing Flame object. This seems to be the default collection of items a room loads in, since every room without actors has the same list.

The only actor this room has is the aforementioned elevator, which doesn't need anything beyond the "default" list of room objects for the Fire Temple.

The multistory room from the fire-powered elevator to the rolling rock maze retains the same basic shape, though the overdump version is much taller and is (as expected) missing the Goron prison.

The parts of the maze closest to the center are the parts most modified in the design change. The Goron prisons, predictably, have yet to be added in.

This room appears to be missing the rolling rocks, as well as any of the enemies that would show up in the final game. The hookshot elevator to go up the ceiling passage, however, does exist in the overdump version, along with that passage itself.

While there is no treasure chest actor, the ring of fire and crystal switch (Dungeon Objects variable 0019) actors suggest the timed challenge to reach it has at least been put in place.

The pre-boss room retains a lot of its design in the final game, though when they added the Goron prison to this room a new path of blocks was added to more easily reach the platform to the left of the boss door. One really interesting detail is that there used to be two blocks you had to drop from above to make a path to the boss door. The final game would have only one, and add a special hole in the lava for the remaining block. It appears the removal of the second block required the platform in front of the boss door to be stretched further into the lava.

There is only one actor here, though since it's the generic "Gameplay Objects" actor it's difficult to tell what exactly it was.

To do: This room really needs a screenshot of it with actors (or reasonable stand-ins for them) included to understand better how (in)complete this room's design was.

Proto	Final

The firewall maze room, like its rolling rock counterpart in the other tower, used to encompass the whole center hole of the tower; in the final game a segment of the room is cut out for the Flare Dancer miniboss room. Around where that miniboss should be is a square mark on the floor where this room's fire-powered elevator presumably rests. Whether this elevator was intended to be guarded by a Flare Dancer at the time of the overdump is unclear.

Judging by the actor list, it seems that the firewall maze used to instead by implemented by a bunch of fire-spitting statues, along with some fire spinners and breakable blocks. This room also has two pillars to hammer, which would fall into the pre-boss room to make a path to the boss door.

Forest Temple

The Forest Temple (which at this point was still referred to as the Wind Temple by in-game text) at the time the overdump was built looks an awful lot like the final game's. There are no extra rooms that would later be removed, and only a couple rooms off the northwest courtyard are missing. The biggest sign of its unfinished state lies in the actors, or rather lack thereof: most rooms do not feature any actors at all, which would overall make for an emptier experience.

The most notable missing actors are the twisting hallways; while we wouldn't expect them to show up in the map's geometry or collision data (since they don't in the final game either), the actors that make them possible are missing, and the lower room that the west hallway can let you drop into isn't present either. However, there is still space made for them in the map, and the room with the falling ceiling (room 2 in the overdump) does have a ceiling passage where you'd drop down from.

Rooms

Aside from the lack of actors in most rooms, another sign that the contents of the dungeon had yet to be fleshed out is that each room has the exact same object list, even being listed in the same order. It'll be shown just the once for brevity's sake:

Forest Temple Room Objects

ID	Description
000E	Treasure Chests
000F	Dancing Flame
0020	Torch
0032	Stalfos
0009	Poe
000B	Wallmaster
0024	Skulltulas
001E	Gohma Larva
0039	Deku Babas

The Gohma Larva object doesn't get used anywhere, and so might be a leftover from wherever the initial object list was copied from.

Room 0

Proto	Final

The overdump version of the entrance hadn't yet made the floor out of grass, leaving the trees feeling quite out of place. The walls behind the trees had a much odder attempt at a brick wall texture, oh and the entrance into the temple is completely absent. That's OK though, since the entire south wall is simply not there. There are no actors here either, making for a peaceful, yet boring, start to the temple.

Room 1

Proto	Final

The room with pink lava and spinning platforms inside used to instead be a room with a ring of badly damaged pillars. The only actor here is an eye switch for untwisting the hallway you just came from.

Forest Temple Room 1 Actors

ID	Description	Variable
0023	Dungeon Objects	001A

Room 2

Proto	Final

The room with the falling ceiling used to instead have pillars interrupting the path to the other side. (Without any actors, this room is missing the falling ceiling, if was meant to have one at this point.) The room is also much brighter than it would end up being.

One interesting fact is that the windows of the northeast courtyard (room 12) badly intersect with this room. While the intersecting geometry itself won't be visible, the associated collision for those windows is still very much present, which would certainly cause interesting effects if you could somehow get up high enough in the room to reach them.

Room 3

Proto	Final

The room with the picture block puzzle once looked quite different, with an off-center hexagonal platform taking up most of the floor space. Since there are no actors, it's impossible to say what this version of the room was meant to contain, though it likely still had something to do with one of the Poe sisters.

Room 4

Proto	Final

This corridor sits between the boss room and the pushable hexagonal room just underneath that sits underneath the main room. This hallway would later become just part of that hexagonal room, instead of being given a room of its own. The actors here are for the torches lining the walls.

Room 5

Proto	Final

The boss room is largely the same, though it features shafts of light from the windows in the domed ceiling, making it even harder to believe this room sits belowground and not high atop a tower. The main geometric differences are the simple ramp to the platform, instead of a bent staircase, and the size of the room. The overdump's boss room is much smaller than the final's, which would've made for a very cramped boss fight.

There are, as usual for this temple, no actors in this room.

Room 6

Proto	Final

The overgrowth of vegetation in this corridor between the entrance and main room had just begun by the time of the overdump. What didn't change is the presence of a Skulltula in the room.

Forest Temple Room 6 Actors

ID	Description	Variable
0038	Skulltula	FFFF

Room 7

Proto	Final

The main chamber in the overdump is much flatter, with the only elevated ground being a thin ledge running along the walls from the southwest to the southeast. There was also once light pouring in from the dome above, making the place a bit brighter. The most interesting change is that this room used to have a staircase down, instead of the elevator.

The actor list shows the beginnings of the Poe Sisters element of the dungeon. While the unique Poe Sisters don't exist here, there are four flames and four generic Poe actors in this room. The lack of any kind of "barrier" actor for the stairs alongside these other actors makes it unclear if the staircase was the originally intended method of getting down to the boss, or if it was just a temporary stand-in before the elevator was properly implemented.

Room 8

Proto	Final

This hallway leading out of the picture block puzzle room would get overhauled for the final game, with fewer arches in the wall, a carpet in front of the door, and some candlelight beside.

The Skulltula that would occupy this room in the final game doesn't exist here, and thus this room has no actors.

Room 9

Proto	Final

This hallway into the lower half of the Stalfos miniboss room used to be taller and thinner, and lacking the decoration on the Stalfos side of the hallway.

The Bubble that would haunt this corridor has yet to appear by the time of the overdump, meaning there are, once again, no actors in this room.

Room 10

Proto	Final

The hallway into the multistory block-pushing puzzle room underwent a similar revamp as the one in room 8, with the final game adding candlelight, carpet, fewer arches, and a Skulltula. That last one means there are no actors in the overdump version of this room.

Room 11

Proto	Final

The Stalfos miniboss rooms (which are put together in one, multistory room) had one very interesting feature in the overdump. The hole in the upper floor used to be keyhole-shaped, extending to right under the eastern door. This appears to have been an old way of blocking off the eastern exit until after defeating the miniboss, though that would imply the platform would arrive at the end, instead of after the first of three Stalfos were defeated. The somewhat odd shape of the floor below suggest that the platform may have once come from below, instead of above.

There are only two Stalfos actors here; no rewards for defeating them are present at this time.

Room 12

Proto	Final

The northeastern courtyard features a number of relatively minor differences from the final version of the game. The raised passage into the falling ceiling room has yet to exist, and the shape of the "island" in the water is slightly bigger than in the final. There also used to be a bridge over the water, better explaining why the path just leads straight into it in the final game. Also, the alcove featuring the red switch was once lower and more in the middle of the north wall.

In terms of connections to the other courtyard, the upper-floor room between the two courtyards (where the dungeon map can be found) used to instead be a simple hallway. Additionally, the well is a bit smaller, and the underground passage connecting the two courtyards used to be a part of them, instead of its own room.

Also worthy of note are the windows along the east wall in the overdump, which give a view of the forest outside and lets some extra light into the area. While a nice touch, they unfortunately intersect with the falling ceiling room, which in addition to allowing some unwanted collision within that room also shows these windows to be completely illogical.

The only actor in this room is a lone Deku Baba.

Room 13

Proto	Final

The northwestern courtyard features a few similar differences to the other courtyard, including the smaller well and the two connections to the other courtyard being corridors that are part of both courtyards instead of rooms of their own. There used to be an alcove hanging on the north wall (mirroring the one in the other courtyard), and the island in the water had yet to gain its pillars (migrated from the pink lava room, perhaps?).

The windows in the west wall mirror those windows of the other courtyard. They would later be transformed into a ledge with a series of arches in the wall, some of which would lead into various added rooms (including the room underneath the west twisting hallway).

The only actor here, as in the other courtyard, is a single Deku Baba.

Room 14

Proto	Final

Aside from the staircase that would later become the elevator, this room used to be a lot less colorful. The hallway connecting this room to the boss chamber, as stated earlier, was at the time of the overdump in its own room. While all the offshoot rooms are present as in the final, it's not totally obvious if the wall-pushing mechanic was intended yet. The lack of any actors in this room makes it hard to say.

Room 15

Proto	Final

While the exact layout of the block pushing puzzle room would inevitably go through changes over the course of development, the overdump version does still resemble the final game's room at least a little. The lowest floor used to be more open, covering fully the eastern and southern walls. The exit from the courtyard's ledge wasn't present, since that ledge was at this time just windows. The top floor has its exits at opposite corners, where later they would be in the middle of opposing walls. The helpful arrow markings on the floor are not present in the overdump.

The only actors here are the eye switch and two pushblocks to move around.

Room 16

Proto	Final

The western Poe painting room (where you fight Joelle in the final game) was originally more of a multistory corridor than a room with staircase, meaning there's not much room to fight any Poes. The lack of any actors makes this room ultimately an uneventful one.

Room 17

Proto	Final

Beth's painting room mirrors her sister Joelle's in both versions of the game. There's no real room to fight, and no actors to wrestle with anyway.

Horseback Archery Testmap

This very basic map was clearly never meant to be an actual part of the game. It was designed as either a place to test horse mechanics, or a quickly-made setpiece for marketing screenshots (worth noting that this map does show up in prerelease material at least once). Most of the map consists of 2D elements, including SNES-style flat vegetation next to the dirt path.

The actor list shows just two horses (one of which of course being Epona) and two unknown NPCs. The object list includes Ganondorf's horse, showing that it too got tested here at some point. It also features a lot of Kakariko Village NPCs and the Cucco object, hinting at the object list (and perhaps the entire map) being initally built on a copy of Kakariko Village.

Sasatest

This is an earlier version of the SRD test map found in the Gamecube Master Quest Debug ROM. Unlike that version, it doesn't appear to have multiple setups for the different combinations of day/night and Adult Link/Child Link, and certainly has a different set of actors being tested.

Every actor here is a Field Objects actor, which makes it effectively impossible to tell what was last tested here when the overdump was built. There is no object list because this actor would, by definition, be using data from the automatically loaded gameplay_field_keep object.

Prerender Map without Prerender

This mysterious prerender-using map offers us no identifying information. The prerender is, of course, absent from what survives of the overdump, and there's no match to be found among the iQue leak's prerenders. There aren't even any actors or objects to clue us in.

There are only two things you can be reasonably sure of about this area:

1. It's likely an outdoor scene, thanks to what looks like a fountain in one corner, the exterior walls of a building in the other, and no walls surrounding the whole map (which are there in indoor prerendered areas).
2. This was probably a "fixed camera angle" prerender area, instead of a 360° panorama one; panorama maps have a spot in the center to put the camera, and trying that here would put the camera too close to the walls in the middle of the map.

Test Map — Treasure Chest Warp

This test map is an earlier version of the one found in the Gamecube Master Quest Debug ROM. The separate room for the crawlspace between two other rooms didn't exist at this point, with that crawlspace instead being shared equally by the two rooms it separates. Room 2 features some minor alterations, but the other rooms seem to match their debug counterparts in geometry and texturing.

Additionally, the actors in each room are clearly very different from those in the debug ROM, which could suggest that this wasn't always known as a treasure chest testing area.

Rooms

Note that there are no object lists in any of the rooms. This is because every actor is an instance of the "Dungeon Objects" actor, which would make use of data in the automatically-loaded "gameplay_dangeon_keep" [sic] object.

Room 0

Known in the debug ROM as the first treasure chest room, the actor list shows that there aren't nearly as many actors in here as there would be. Two of the actors have been identified as a floor switch and crystal switch, suggesting that at this time the room was testing switches and perhaps other similar interactive elements.

Inside the Deku Tree

This is easily the most interesting dungeon in the overdump. Unlike all other dungeons, this version of the Deku Tree bears virtually no resemblance to that seen in the final game. It certainly looks like a Deku Tree dungeon, of course, but knowledge of the final game won't give you any kind of edge in understanding this dungeon. Screenshots of this dungeon in action can be seen in some prerelease screenshots from the time.

Presumably the dungeon's progression generally went from the bottom to the top, although the boss room being accessed through a nearly-ground-level room along the outer edge of the main chamber would make this a bit more awkward than in the final game (where you simply jump down into a hole once reaching the top of the main room).

Rooms

Room 0

The central chamber of this Deku Tree is essentially the opposite of the final game's; instead of climbing up around the edges of the room, you climb up a tower smack dab in the middle. This implies that there's no lower floor to drop down into like in the final game (in fact, Gohma's room is geographically right below the tower). Inside the tower are a number of small circular rooms, one per floor and separate entities from this room.

The actors here features a number of Deku Babas, eye switches, and a bare piece of heart, among others. The object list features a number of enemies that don't appear in this room, but do appear in others (in general, it appears the object lists of each room were copied around and modified as needed).

This second floor of the tower doesn't help you go further up the ramp, but lets you access a chamber along the outer walls of the dungeon. The ramp continues past both other exits (with the lowest seemingly there just to let you get back up to where you were if you fall down). For reference, the end of the bridge with the longer platform leads to the outer room.

The most interesting actor here is the Tailpasaran, an enemy that only appears in Jabu-Jabu's Belly in the final game. There are also a pair of skulltulas and mad scrubs here.

If the ledge on the ramp outside one exit is, as it appears, too tall to climb up, then this third floor to the tower must be gone through to continue further up the ramp. Judging by the numerous Gohma Larvae in the actor list, it seems plausible you'd need to kill them to make the treasure chest appear. The Dungeon Objects actor might be an eye switch, in which case it's likely what opens up the other exit to continue up the tower.

Room 4

Like the room below it, the fourth floor of the tower needs to be traversed to continue up the tower. The upper exit appears to lead to a bit of ramp that also can't be climbed up, requiring you to instead cross a bridge to an outer room to reach the next floor of the tower. This room only features torches and Deku Babas, suggesting that this room was more just part of the path up than a real obstacle.

Room 5

This fifth floor to the tower doesn't appear to be necessary, since both exits lead to bridges to the same outer room, and the ramp up to the roof of the tower is connected to the same platform as where the upper exit leads out to. It seems the intent of this room is to let you jump from the upper exit to the lower exit, with a huge gap in the lower exit's bridge suggesting you'd have to fill it somehow before being able take this path down. Overall, this seems to be a shortcut room more than anything else.

The actor list here doesn't help much in figuring out the purpose of this part of the tower, since there are only three Deku Baba actors present.

Room 6

This outer room sits on the first floor, and features two ledges on either side of a sort of pit with green circles on the ground, and one high platform. The fact that one ledge is very tall and the other has a staircase to get you right back on it suggests that you'd go from the staircase side to the tall side when playing the game. (This would mean you enter this room from a ledge with a ladder on it, and exit to a bridge to the tower ramp.)

The circles on the floor, resembling the top of the one circular platform, would suggest that you'd have to raise a bunch of platforms in the center to make it to the other ledge (though the actors that would be needed for these platforms don't exist).

The actors here consist of a number of Deku Babas, a couple of chests, an unidentified instance of the Dungeon Objects actor, and the combination "spiked log" and "dropping ladder" actor, which presumably represented a ladder in this context.

Room 7

This small chamber on the second floor only contains a single treasure chest. Strangely this room is textured much differently from the rest of the dungeon (with the next room the only other one to share this style), looking much darker and more constructed than other parts of the dungeon.

Room 9

This outer room on the fourth floor is very odd in design, designed like it was three rooms (usually, the technical definition of a room in Ocarina of Time corresponds with what a player would call "a room"). This room features two paths through the parts of this rooms, with the upper path naturally looking like what you want to stay on. In another oddity though, it's the lower path that leads you out to the next part of the dungeon (with the upper path ultimately leading you into a cage that shows you the exit you could've been taking). There seems to be a floor switch in this room however, perhaps indicating that final part of the lower path might not be immediately accessible.

In addition to the Dungeon Objects actor that might be a floor switch, there is a Piece of Heart out in the open, as well as a Deku Baba, Skulltulas, and two more interesting appearances of the Tailpasaran.

Room 10

This fifth floor outer room consists of a square room with an inexplicable ramp to nowhere (presumably a chest or something that has yet to be added to the map would be placed here), and a long winding passages to two exits. One exit leads to room 11, coming up next, and one leads ultimately to the lower exit of room 5.

The only actors here are torches and enemies, specifically Skulltulas and Deku Babas.

This outer room on the first floor leads down into Gohma's lair by climbing down a number of platforms. This room seems particularly unfinished, since the only actor here is a square sign bluntly telling you:

Room 13

This room looks basically identical to the final game's boss room, and similar to the standalone version of the boss room in this overdump. It's the only part of the Deku Tree that's recognizable to those who've played the final game.

The only preloaded actor here is, of course, Gohma, though objects for a heart container and the blue warp are loaded and ready to be spawned in after the boss fight.

Jabu-Jabu Area

This simple cylindrical room is textured on all sides by an organic-looking blue & red texture, with the floor and ceiling being quite bumpy. This look, along with the actors present, would suggest that it's some very early work on Jabu-Jabu's Belly. This would be the only map related to the final child dungeon in this overdump, suggesting that it had barely started development by this time.

Chamber of Sages

This version of the Chambers of Sages looks almost identical to the final version's, except for the medallion pedestals the sages stand on. Instead of being actual 3D platforms, they're just medallion textures against the floor of the chamber. The last three medallions show their old colors: Spirit is yellow instead of orange, Shadow is black instead of purple, and Light is white instead of yellow. Each medallion mark emits colored light, as can be seen below (even black "light" in the case of Shadow):

There are only five NPC actors here, three of which are impossible-to-identify NPC Manager actors. They appear to be stand-ins for the sages, though you will no doubt notice that there are only stand-ins for five of the medallions (four if Zelda is meant to represent herself as the seventh sage instead).

While there aren't enough actors, there are, however, enough NPC objects loaded in to make for seven sages. While some of the stand-ins are obvious, like Sheik for Impa and the generic Goron for Darunia (and child Zelda for adult Zelda), the four others aren't at all obvious; in particular, either Mido or the generic red-haired Kokiri girl could plausibly represent Saria's position.

Temple of Time Exterior

The Temple of Time exterior, like most prerendered areas, lost its images to F-Zero X. Luckily, however would have been difficult to identify for sure, were it not for the fact that the iQue leak features matching prerenders in CHAPEL and CHAPEL_NIGHT, with the metal sphere on top of the stair walls in particular making identification easy. (It should be noted that the adult version of these prerenders, CHAPEL_RUINS, is missing those spheres, so would probably want a separate map not present in the overdump.)

Thanks to this, we can make some observations comparing this prerendered map to the final game:

Overdump	Final

While the temple kept its orientation throughout the changes (which you can tell by the placement of Death Mountain relative to it), the stairs leading to the front area used to be at an angle from the direction you approached this map. Grass on either side of the steps to the front door were replaced with pools of water. The flower beds opposite the temple would eventually be moved much closer together.

As far as can be seen from the final's static image, it appears the Temple of Time used to be more open to the surrounding buildings of the town. What alterations to the surrounding area can be seen suggest a more secluded temple in the final game. The final, most enticing difference is that the final game would fence off a path leading around the side of the building, possibly leading to a back area. The far pool seems to have the same blocking effect for going around the other side.

Aside from the changes to the design of the area, you can clearly see from this comparison that, in the overdump, the Temple of Time area was a prerender intended for a camera which could rotate slightly (not quite a panorama, but not totally fixed either). The final game would switch to two entirely static shots for the area instead.

Fairy Fountain

This version of a Fairy Fountain has a small fountain in the middle of a pool of water, surrounded by pillars and a pretty colorful wall. It's hard to tell if this was a regular Fairy Fountain or a Great Fairy Fountain, since there are no objects or actors present in this map, and it's the only fountain-like area in the overdump.

Temple of Time Interior

Proto	Final

The Temple of Time in the overdump is largely identical to the final version's. The most notable difference is that the warp destination for the Prelude of Light used to be a part of the level geometry (instead of being handled by an actor as in the final game), and was of a much different design: a diamond shape with texturing matching the rest of the temple.

Around the Door of Time, the Triforce above it used to be upside down, and the place where the spiritual stones go was a bit simpler, with the flat part missing and the stones instead going on the slanted portion. The door itself used to be a set of double doors, and (like the warp destination) was once baked into the geometry. In fact, the room behind the door doesn't exist in the overdump at all.

Forest Temple Pushblock Tower Room

This is a copy of room 15 of the Forest Temple (the multistory pushblock puzzle room), just in its own scene. The geometry appears to be identical to that in the version of this room that's part of the actual Forest Temple map. The only difference between the two versions is that there are no actors or objects in this version of the room at all, making it difficult to tell just why this room got duplicated like this.

LOD Test

This room, when explored in-engine, will only display one of the two bits of geometry sticking up from the floor: far away, you'll only see a triangle, but closer in and you instead only see a cube. This would be for testing the graphics microcode's ability to change what kind of geometry gets processed based on distance from a specific part of the world. This room may be the LODtest01 map named in the iQue leak, though it can't be said for sure.

Seeing as this area was pretty clearly designed to test graphics rendering, it unsurprisingly has no actors or objects.

Fire Temple Maze Area

The rolling boulder maze of the Fire Temple was copied out into its own map, likely for similar reasons to the singled-out part of the Forest Temple. Unlike that map, however, there are actors and objects, as well as some differences in the room model.

This area contains the maze itself, as well as a room embedded in the walls of the maze and the hallway to the other tower. All of these rooms are generally simpler or less decorated than their counterparts in the full Fire Temple map.

Maze Map	Full Temple Map

This hallway is analogous to room 7 of the main Fire Temple map. Unlike that version, this map's is clearly much simpler, being just a box that fades into black nothing at the far end. There are no actors in this room, befitting its simplicity.

While this could be an earlier version of that hallway, it's more likely instead a quick mockup of the room that would be there in the full map.

Room 1

Maze Map	Full Temple Map

This room is the equivalent to room 2 of the full temple map, though here it's just a box to stand in, no actors or way down into other parts of the temple. Like with the previous room, it's likely a quick mock-up to fill an exit in the maze room, and not an indication of an earlier design of the place.

Room 2

This is the actual maze room, and quite obviously the focus of this particular map. There are actually some differences from the full temple's room; the most obvious is that an extra wall was added in the full temple's maze, cutting off a path that's present here. There are also fewer decorations (things like torches and door frames), and several exits are missing. The only exits here are those that have rooms behind them in this map, and the exits in the central pillar and in the ceiling are gone. Whether these parts of the temple had yet to be designed, or they were simply removed from this map is unclear.

While there are actors here, they're only for flames sitting in the various torches around the room. There are no boulders or other elements here.

Link's House

This map simply contains the inside of Link's house. While the panoramic view of the house has been lost like most prerenders, the overhead shot is preserved in the overdump, since fully-static prerenders are stored in the room files they belong to:

"Overdump"	"Final"

The only difference from the final game is that Link's bed used to be just a mat on the ground, as evidenced by both the prerender and a lack of any bed geometry in the model itself.

The sole actor here is Saria, as can be seen by its associated Spaceworld-specific dialogue:

Space World '97
The Legend of Zelda - Hyrule Demo Tour
Welcome to Kokiri Forest, jara!

I'm Saria of the Kokiri!
Nice to meet you!

(Note: "jara" is simply the word Kokiri used in earlier versions of the game to end all of their sentences. Gorons and Zoras use similar words in the final game's Japanese text.)

While Saria is the only actor here, there are objects for what just might be every single Kokiri in the entire game at this point in development, as well as an object for treasure chests. Considering this room was specially altered for the SW97 demo, it's plausible that special coding would've loaded in actors for some or all of these objects as part of the demonstration.

Kokiri Shop

This is a much-different Kokiri shop from that of the final game. This version is clearly meant to be a panoramic room, like Link's house, whereas the final's is a room with a fixed camera. While the panorma is lost, the overhead view is preserved within the room file:

As can be seen here, the shop used to be much more detailed and decorated than a barren rectangular room with a countertop.

The three actors here are all Kokiri NPCs. The NPC Manager simply greets you, while the two Arias each sell one specific item (much like Business Scrubs in the final game), one selling deku nuts and the other deku sticks. However, the dialogue for those two simply say you can't buy anything yet, suggesting that actually purchasing things hadn't been implemented yet.

Like with Link's House, it appears every Kokiri under the sun is loaded in as an object, along with the object for treasure chests.

Field with Sphere and Glass

This testing area features a plain grass field with a transparent pane of glass (with some texturing around the edges so it can be seen at all) and an opaque ball sitting on it.

This room looks like it's designed to test the graphics portion of the game code in how it handles drawing transparent surfaces. The front side of the glass faces the ball, and you can position the camera so that the ball blocks some or all of it. Transparent surfaces can easily lead to rendering errors if not handled correctly, so it's quite likely that this map let devs observe how the game handles opaque and transparent surfaces occupying the same portion of the screen. Another clue that this tests rendering is the complete lack of any actors or objects that would be needed to test something gameplay-related.
