Congrats, you successfully managed to create my most hated temple in all of OoT. *claps*
Thanks! We are aware that the majority of the people who played OoT hated the water temple, but we have tried to choose puzzles that are stimulative of the same experience without being as frustrating as the original
We think we have achieved this and this is probably one of the best temples we have done so far. We can't wait to have people test it!

I swear, if you managed to be able to make the same mechanic where the boss can throw you around and damage you, I will give you a medal.
Welcome, to the most EPIC thread on the forums. GENERATION 37: The first time you see this, copy it into your signature on any forum and add 1 to the generation. This is a Social experiment.
Just wondering where you guys are on this map. Cause I know you have the Spirit, Light, Water, Fire, and Forest temples done, which means you need the Shadow Temple and Ganon's Castle, if i'm correct.

Thank you for your continued interest! The past is complete and playable however there are a few zones that we will be reworking in the future to bring them into line with the whole style and feel of the map (as our creation abilities have increased tenfold since we started the map)!
Here is a completion graph of the future as it stands! This is rapidly increasing as puzzles are built and edited most days.The Spirit temple bosses are undergoing a major rework as alpha testing continues. And both 'Under the Well' and the 'Ice Cavern' are smaller areas and as such should require less time.
For general interest we are still looking for more testers for both the past portion and some of the newer temples. If you are interested, please leave a comment on the thread or send us a PM.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon,

I would offer, but like I said before, I want to make a Let's Play on the whole thing, plus I don't want to ruin it. Course you can't exactly ruin a game that you've played around 5 times.
When will this map be avalible for download?
- I can't wait!
You can sign up for beta/alpha testing by leaving a reply :). If you have Skype and you sign up they will msg you and will tell you when you can test. Remember that this is a three person map.

In other news, would you be interested in having a custom resource pack to play the game with, including custom items, sound effects and songs from the game? If so we can work on implementing them - let us know what gives you the feeling of OoT and we'll make sure to provide an eerily reminiscent recreation of the game for you!
And by the way, the Fire Temple is one room away from completion. Stay tuned!
Here's a graphic of how we're doing so far. (Note: Shorter bars denote shorter tasks.)
This map looks great and I would love to beta test this The Legend of Zelda has always been my favorite game series and Ocarina of Time is by far my favorite of them. That being said I've always wanted to recreate the game in minecraft but I just don't have the time to take on a project so intensive. And even though this map isn't the most ascetically pleasing (no offense) it still looks pretty damn accurate and functional. I can't wait for it to be finished.
Thanks for the comments! Glad you're looking forward to it. There are projects that attempt to recreate the Ocarina of Time to the pixel - our map seeks to emulate the feel of the game whilst still offering thrilling and memorable gameplay experiences and optimal functionality in a Minecraft map. If you're interested in alpha testing contact either myself or Duskreaper via PM with your Skype details and we'll discuss playthrough possibilities.
The Fire Temple is mere inches from completion. (There is just one small chamber left to complete.) Without further ado, here are some screenshots of the temple:
Furthermore, we've given Dodongo's a makeover and greatly improved the final boss from that section. Here's a screenshot:
Queen Gohma will be making an appearance in the next update, and work on Under the Well will shortly be underway.
We've just updated the first post in the thread. Hope you guys like the new images! We've decided to go ahead with building our own resource pack featuring all the songs and SFX from the original game and are having fun implementing them into the map. Watch this space!
We are currently working on prototyping the implementation of voice-acting into all dialogue. Although this differs from the original Zelda game, with the new technology available to us due to Minecraft updates we want to work with this technology to see if it will heighten the effect of the game. The accents would therefore be localised around Great Britain, and narrated in a particular manner.
Let us know what you think: will voice-acting improve the playing experience, or is it better to leave some things to the imagination? Could you bare Ganondorf sounding different to how you imagined? Would an extra 30MB of audio clips put you off downloading the resource pack, or have no effect at all?
We need your feedback! This will be a mammoth task for us to take on if we choose to go ahead with it, so we want to make sure we're making the right decision before we do the heavy work.
Here's a quick shot of Princess Gohma from the Deku Tree.
The Shadow Temple is around 85% complete. The boss battle needs to be put together (although it has already been designed) and the different levels need to be attached to each other - otherwise, she's good to go! This week is a heavy week of revision, exams and work, so there will be fewer updates up until about next weekend, but rest assured that we want to get the map to you in as short a time as possible.
As always, if anybody (particularly pre-made groups of 3s) want to beta test the map for us, it would be much appreciated.
