What Is ZC?
Zelda Classic is a tribute to (what we think is) the greatest video game of all time: Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda. It has been developed into an exact replica of the NES version that we all know and love. Beyond that, Zelda Classic allows the development of new quests that can use either the traditional graphics or enhanced graphics, as well as new enemies, items, and challenges.



Though it was started as a basic Legend of Zelda clone by programmer Phantom Menace in April of 1999, Zelda Classic has grown into something much bigger in the past few years. A full LOZ replica was achieved by June of 2000, with Zelda Classic version 1.84, but the story didnt end there. Although Phantom Menace moved on to other projects, Fans of Zelda Classic wanted more.





Also as you can tell above there is full screen ans half screen modes to playing zc and there is also versions for windows and more!






Fast forward to after about a year of searching for a new programmer, when Dark Nation comes to Armageddon Games, and breathes new life into what seemed like a dying beast. Within weeks, a new version of Zelda Classic is released, and it's popularity soars. Zelda Classic 1.90, introduced a list of new features, and with it's addition to Download.com, Armageddon Games is flooded with about 3000+ new members in a manner of months!



Zelda Classic 1.90 was not without it's problems though. A few bugs, such as the now infamous 'Cannot find 1st.qst' bug, and occasional runtime errors would frustrate users. It was felt that ZC 1.90 was rushed out, to appease the waiting masses. The mistake wouldn't happen again.



Many features have been added in the past few years. Now, instead of being merely a Legend of Zelda Clone, Zelda Classic has become so much more. With ZQuest, Zelda Classic's Quest Creator, anyone can make their very own quest from scratch, and now, with all of the features that have been added in the past years, the possibilities are virtually endless for the style of quest you can make. If you can imagine it, you can create it (provided it's in 8-bit color). Quests have grown larger and longer, into seemingly epic games, that can take days, if not weeks to complete. With ZQuest, you can create your own original graphics, or import them from any game you like. In the past we've seen ZC versions of LEXX, (many versions of) Mega Man, Metroid and Super Mario Brothers, all in the classic quest style. As well as hundreds upon hundreds of first rate custom Zelda Quests.



After three years of waiting, and many new features being added to ZC behind closed doors, it finally seems like a new version of Zelda Classic is on the horizon. Now in final development and testing, the next version of Zelda Classic is sure to please gamers and creators, and introduce a new generation to the greatest game of all time, The Legend of Zelda.

Passwords used to protect ZC quest files are not stored in a secure manner. They are
obfuscated, but anyone who has access to your .qst and really wants to can probably discover the password used to protect that quest in a number of different ways, depending on the person. This isn't such a big deal, but if you use the same password on a quest that you use to access the forums or elsewhere, potentially anyone can obtain that password. In short

DO NOT PROTECT A ZC QUEST WITH A PASSWORD THAT YOU WOULDN'T WANT EVERYONE IN THE WORLD TO KNOW


How to get Zelda Classic working on your PC.
Start by downloading and unzipping all files into a new folder of their own, "ZCBeta" would be a good folder name.

Depending on what version you download, your files should look something like this;

(list of files for the 192b182 beta program)
182test.qst
1st.qst
2nd.qst
3rd.qst
ag.cfg
allegro.log
alleg41.dll
agsetup.exe
sfx.dat
zc192b182d.exe
zc192b182s.exe
zc192b182w.exe
zelda.dat
zelda.exe
zelda (shortcut)
zelda.sav
zelda-w.exe
zgp.dat
zquest.exe
zquest.txt
zquest-w.exe

Now that all these files are there with the exception of maybe the ag.cfg and the Allegro log you need to get the program to write those for you as well.
Double click on "zquest-w.exe", when ZQuest opens, click on ETC at the top right and play lost woods midi.
Click on ETC and turn the music off, and exit ZQuest by clicking on FILE then EXIT.

You should now be able to play the games.
Double click on "zelda-w.exe" and when the flames come up press "Enter" on your keyboard.
Press Enter again to pass the Zelda intro screen.
Register a name, and press enter and the first quest will be ready to play.
Enter the name "zelda" if you would prefer to play the second quest.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How to load custom quests in Zelda Classic
1) Double click on zelda-w.exe
2) Press "Enter" to pass the flames.
3) Press "Enter" to pass the Zelda intro screen.
4) register a name, and press enter.
5) press "A" (Alt)
6) Press "A" (Alt) again
7) browse to the quest you want to play, choose it and press "ok"
press "Enter" to play.
The above steps assume you have put the custom quest in the folder with Zelda Classic

I HOPE THIS IS HELPFULL
 
 
 

Kimmie:
Is this a free/freeware game or an illegal cracked game?

BadgerGirl*naf:

What know this is the real zelda classic game maker it comes with the first ever zelda game already go here and see this site is dedecated for this system......purezc.com there is over 150 zelda games for zelda classic here you can get more info there.

Kimmie:
I dont need more info on the game. I simply asked you whether the game was freeware (meaning the game is free) or if the makers of the game charge for it. If they charge for it, your post is against the SMF For Free Terms of Service because it means you have posted illegel ftp download links.
