Ips Patch: http://bszelda.zeldalegends.net/stuff/Con/pott_l2sword.zip

Code Addresses:
$0x77B70 - 0x77B9B: code to implement feature
$0x77f00- 0x77f18: bugfix to not ram posts into ground with sword
Update: The old hack let you ram posts into the ground with the sword (posts on the overworld and these little "face"-tiles in dungeons). So here is a bugfix version that does another test for the hammer when the games checks for these tiles.

ASM

I didn't realize your super lantern was an upgrade, so yeah, I won't be adding that.

Would you please restore the "item dash" glitch, from the Japanese version 1.0 copy of the game, into the all-in hack. It works by pressing the "Y" button, at the same time as holding the "A" button, which replaces the sword with whatever item you were using. I would like to have a patch made to re-implement the glitch.
Thank you for helping.

I tried, you see Y-pressed is stored to $F4. The read is disabled if a value is written to $5d (#$11 for dash). If I'd disable this this affects the whole Rom as the hookshot also writes to $5d (#$13) to not use other items while the Routine is executed..

This will render the complete Rom unplayable so I have to decline "this request".

I've noticed there's some weirdness with the hitbox of this patch.  It doesn't seem to quite line up with the sword hitbox on the L2+ swords.  Specifically, at the extreme range of the hitbox sword, you can hit the pot without it breaking.  I originally thought that maybe it was still using the original hammer hitbox, but I tested that and that doesn't seem to be the case either (see the second pot in the video).  So the pot breaking hitbox has a longer range than the hammer, but a shorter range than the sword.  It's not a huge issue, but I do quite often find myself thinking "I'm sure I hit that, why didn't it break?"

I am not sure whether this is fixable. I did not alter the collision detection routines. I guess that the pot is marked as hit at a certain pixel first and then destroys. Check the bushes, they seem to have the same issue.

I don't think this is a problem though, since it is logical you need to stand close to a pot to breake it.

It's not a problem necessarily, but I don't think it's logical, because you can see that you've hit it, but it doesn't break (e.g. 0:03 in the video).  Not really a big deal, but it is something I noticed.
