That file should give you all you need to use the glitch again in versions of Link's Awakening other than the original, including

V 1.1
V 1.2
Deluxe 1.0
Deluxe 1.1
Deluxe 1.2

Enjoy.

Edit:

HyperHacker wants you all to know that Mario Kart 64 hacking is going very well.

Edit, again:

This should simplify those notes for you all:

Glitch in version 1.1:		set 0x0CC1 to 0x0000 and 0x2802 to 0x0000

Glitch in version 1.2:		set 0x0CBD to 0x0000 and 0x2802 to 0x0000

Glitch in LA Deluxe 1.0:	set 0x10B4 to 0x0000 and 0x2822 to 0x0000

Glitch in LA Deluxe 1.1:	set 0x10B0 to 0x0000 and 0x2819 to 0x0000

Glitch in LA Deluxe 1.2:	set 0x10B0 to 0x0000 and 0x2819 to 0x0000

Note that pressing Select while dialog is on screen will still work (not sure why the can't-open-map-when-changing-screens code also handles the can't-open-map-while-talking problem because the variable that is checked is a counter for how many steps you are into changing screens...I guess it also counts down how many message windows you have left?). You will have to press B (Select will no longer work) to close the map, and it will look a bit glitchy, but otherwise you're safe.

You should get me on AIM some time (I have some random LA shit I've found, mostly pointless), and tell HyperHacker he's still welcome to come back

He says you already told him that.

I forgot you were a huge LA fan/hacker. You probably have some cool shit to share but I don't know what I'd do with it.

I do want to add a level 3 sword to the game that burns everything it touches. You got any notes on how to do that?

I'm not an ASM guy, unfortunately. I've been meaning to take a stab at it, since most of my ability is related to being able to interpret data and make sense out of it, usually by relying on overlays or just guesses.

As for fire swords? No, not really. Unfortunate, but you would probably just have to figure out what makes swords act differently; L-0, for example, just shoos enemies away.

Heh, I was kidding. If I ever get serious about it, I'll pick up the parts of Z80 assembly I didn't figure out while making this hack and do it myself.

Like I tell my friends,

I'm a pretty beast hacker.

Edit: Updated with info for other versions.
