BS Zelda Hacking List

First thing you need is a hacking program. I use Hex Workshop, but any one will work fine. But for these instructions, I'll assume you have Hex Workshop. Open your .zs* file in Hex Workshop, and you'll see columns of numbers in Hexadecimal format. The numbers on the left show about where you are at. Click on any offset. In the lower right, you should see something saying Offset: XXXXXXX, and the numbers it shows you are exactly where you are. Scroll down and find the locations of the offsets you'll need to change to edit what you want to edit.

If you don't know Hexadecimal, don't feel bad, most don't. It's a number system based on 16, unlike ours (decimal), which is based on 10. So Hexidecimal uses the letters A-F to fill in the missing parts. So after 9, it's A, then B, and so on. It gets confusing if you're not used to it... Luckily, included in Hex Workshop is a nifty calculator that can convert normal numbers into Hexidecimal and vice versa.

It can be confusing, but really it's not that hard to do. If you have any further questions, ask me. And if you're REALLY lucky, you might even get a response.
