Bug: Majora's Mask - cannot complete game due to reset system #320

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Collect every mask then obtain fierce deity mask.
2. Watch end credits.
3. You can't reset and get the save file.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
You should be able to do a reset and ger a fresh save file with the deity mask 
and heart pieces from the moon. Related to BIOS or the way emulator handles 
resetting?

Please provide any additional information below.
This is probably not even low priority, but I have put several hours into 
playing and now I have hit a wall and can't do anything, and that's really 
depressing.
Savestate included at end of credits where reset it needed.

I will look into this issue, thanks for providing the save file - that's quite 
a bit of dedication to have played through it in wii64!

I like the Gamecube controller, a whole lot. Savestates are nice too.

The only drawback other than that was the lens of truth not working at all. 
Other than that, I would say that it was near perfect. In the end I grabbed a 
finish savegame from the virtual console version and used a few tools to 
convert it to a Wii64 save file. Nothing was going to keep me from the Deity 
Mask XD

nice - glad you got it sorted out, can you attach your wii64 save file with the 
Deity Mask if it's not too much trouble? We'll need something to test the Lens 
of Truth with ;)

Also, the music is a tad choppy. If the graphics are too intense, it really 
screws up.

These are all the data files I have for majora's mask in a zip. Some of the 
states are glitch. One of them is right before the final battle. Which, reminds 
me of another bug that is probably related to the Lens of Truth issues. There 
is no text during cutscenes in "God worlds" with the 4 giants or with the 4 
children inside the moon. 

Still it's very, very playable.

thank you :)

Did you have many/any crashes, how many hours at a time would you say you 
managed to get through without restarting the emulator?

The only major crashes were related to savestates, and when I glitched to get 
the deity masks out of boss rooms, but the latter would be expected.

My average playtime would be between one and three hours, though I could leave 
the game indefinitely if I didn't screw with saving. I can't remember it 
crashing during gameplay, though I did lose some progress do to save states 
glitching a few times. I had multiple issues with the savestate system.
1. For usually no reason, saving or loading states would kill the emulator, 
responding to no button presses, but sometimes the Wii's power button.
2. When loading a state, you have to press a button on the controller after 
pressing the button to resume game (like a double-click, I suppose). Extremely 
annoying, I assume it's a bug.
3. Saving and loading states is slow and after playing as much as I did, I'm 
wary of them in general, though I still favored them over the original save 
system. RTS is always better than the 3-day system provided by the game.
