Hey gang! I don't know if this is the proper place to put this, so let me know if I'm not doing this right.

I want to say I really love all the text dumps put on the Zelda Legends main site from all the various Zelda games--and I especially love the HTML ones that color code all the words just as they are in the games themselves.

There is something missing from the Ocarina of Time text dump, however. All the small font text is there, but I was wondering if it was possible to do a text dump of the larger font (this is the font you see on the screen when you enter an area, on the item menu screen, the boss name call, etc.). I think this should be possible since there is a "credits" section for OoT, which is the same font as what I'm referring to here.

Hm, I opened the ROM up in a Hex Editor, but I can't find the text for, for example, "Infernal Dinosaur." I guess that text isn't stored in an easily accessible place? Maybe it's a graphic or something? I can find both the regular text and the credit scroll using the hex editor, so it seems this text is different to the credits bit after all. Sorry I can't help more... I'm not really a proper hacker.

I'm afraid most of the people who did the dumps rarely drop by these forums anymore... Davogones, for example. You could try e-mailing, I suppose.

Thanks for trying, Showsni (and the recommendation), and thanks for the welcome, Sharpy!
