Ocarina of Time Remake gets a multiplayer mod on PC

Ocarina of Time Remake
A modder has added online multiplayer to the Ocarina of Time remake on PC. Here’s what already works, what’s still broken and what hasn’t been tested yet.

The Ocarina of Time remake now has an optional online multiplayer mod on PC. It comes from daurosk, who previously made a multiplayer mod for Tears of the Kingdom. The project is open source under the GPL-3.0 license and available on GitHub.

Daurosk built it on the Lichii emulator first (Frizti’s build), with plans to bring it to native PC recompilations.

What works and what doesn’t for Ocarina of Time Remake mod

Other players appear as child Link with Navi and a name tag. Items, songs, keys, dungeon flags, enemies and townspeople are shared. Chat, a player list and reconnecting also work.

The first playtest found a few bugs. Other players’ swords and shields don’t show, cut grass isn’t shared, and enemies don’t react to another player’s hits.

Adult Link, the host’s time of day, shared pots and rocks, bombs and arrows are built but haven’t been seen working in a game yet.

The mod has only been tested on one PC running two games, not on two PCs.

Nintendo previously took down the Breath of the Wild multiplayer mod, so this project could face the same fate.
