This is a patcher to update the v1.0.0 release or v1.1.4+ to v1.1.7. Version 1.0.0 is the initial release of the game that popped up on itch.io before it was taken down. It can still be found online, just search for an "archive" of "Link's Awakening DX HD". Visit this link to see a changelog since v1.0.0. To use this patcher:
- Unzip v1.0.0 of the game or open v1.1.4+ folder.
- Drop this patcher into the base folder alongside the executable.
- Open the patcher, hit the "Patch" button.
- After it is done, close the patcher.
**NOTE:**Starting with v1.1.4 of the patcher, a backup of the patched v1.0.0 files is created and replaced on the fly when updating to the next version. This means you will no longer need to keep a version of 1.0.0 around to get the latest update.
NOTE: Windows defender and other virus programs may flag this patcher as a virus. I can assure you it is NOT a virus, and the source code for it can be found in this repository. You may need to add an exception to your virus scanner. If you do not feel comfortable with this, you can always build the latest version yourself.
