DEPRECATED soon and only compatible with Cemu 1.18.0+ (Cemu Hook not required)
Found a crash with new version. To reproduce: - Die - Press continue, reloading latest save - Don't teleport anywhere. Die again - Press continue. Immediately when pressing continue, game crashes
I was able to reproduce consistently even with no other mods installed and no edits to the any of this mod's files. EDIT: Using the essential Weapon, Armor, Arrows preset, not sure if that helps
An optional version that teleports you back to the shrine of resurrection would be really cool! EDIT: It seems this isn't possible, but Dragbe is awesome and fulfilled my other request (keep only weapons/armors)
I think it works as intended now! for the sake of information:
by default all weapons (except master sword), bows (and arrows), shields (including hylian shield), materials and food are lost upon death. there is an option to keep arrows, materials and food;
armor, key items (like korok seeds, spirit orbs, horse gear etc.), rupees and mon remain after death.
obs.: if you die on Trial of the Sword or something similar, you will lose your items outside the Trial of the Sword. backup your saves because it makes irreversible changes to save files.
if you don't want to disable autosave, you just have to delete the last line in patch_patches.asm, which reads
Have you considered making the Master Sword drop too? I think there's a built in fail-safe where it returns to the forest upon being dropped (at least, there's an animation for that which sometimes triggers when you glitch the game into thinking you dropped it). Pretty cool idea though. If this request hadn't expired, I'd have given you the bounty for it, cause it does pretty much make that kind of playthrough possible.
If it were possible to put all the stuff you dropped in a chest that spawned where you died (or at least valuables), that'd be cool, although I imagine that would be tricky.
for anyone wondering, "non-essential" means all weapons/bows/shields except master sword (I assume hylian shield too but I don't have it yet im nob), all materials and all food. armor stays, and most "key items" too. spirit orbs and korok seeds are gone though, not sure if intentional. also, might be an issue on my end, but it randomly changed armor dyes too.
