The Legend of Zelda/Character Palette Assignments
Jump to navigation
Jump to search
Lanmolas (fast worms in final level) utilize an odd palette-assigning scheme which begins at $1292C in the headered-ROM. The enemy index ID (#3A for red, weak Lanmola; #3B for blue, strong Lanmola) is copied over to $4E7 in RAM. #39 is subtracted from this value and stored at $4E6. (Red Lanmolas would yield a #01 result; Blue Lanmolas would yield #02.) Later on ($12A1A), the game invokes this value and performs a logical EOR of the rightmost two bits, effectively converting #01 into #02 and vice-versa. This new value is then utilized for the sprite palette assignment.
Most boss characters use a specialized Palette #3, which is loaded upon entering their room.
Unknown locations include those for Moldorm (slow, dumb worm), Gel (tiny Hershey's Kiss™-looking things), Wallmaster, and Patra's mini-clones.This is a sub-page of The Legend of Zelda.
