Deployment Method: Individual Install, Upgrade, & Uninstall
To install zelda3-launcher (Portable), run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:
To upgrade zelda3-launcher (Portable), run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:
To uninstall zelda3-launcher (Portable), run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:
Deployment Method:
This applies to both open source and commercial editions of Chocolatey.
1. Enter Your Internal Repository Url
(this should look similar to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/)
2. Setup Your Environment
1. Ensure you are set for organizational deployment
Please see the organizational deployment guide
2. Get the package into your environment
Option 1: Cached Package (Unreliable, Requires Internet - Same As Community)-
Open Source or Commercial:
- Proxy Repository - Create a proxy nuget repository on Nexus, Artifactory Pro, or a proxy Chocolatey repository on ProGet. Point your upstream to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/. Packages cache on first access automatically. Make sure your choco clients are using your proxy repository as a source and NOT the default community repository. See source command for more information.
- You can also just download the package and push it to a repository Download
-
Open Source
-
Download the package:
Download - Follow manual internalization instructions
-
-
Package Internalizer (C4B)
-
Run: (additional options)
choco download zelda3-launcher --internalize --source=https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/
-
For package and dependencies run:
choco push --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'"
- Automate package internalization
-
Run: (additional options)
3. Copy Your Script
choco upgrade zelda3-launcher -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" [other options]
See options you can pass to upgrade.
See best practices for scripting.
Add this to a PowerShell script or use a Batch script with tools and in places where you are calling directly to Chocolatey. If you are integrating, keep in mind enhanced exit codes.
If you do use a PowerShell script, use the following to ensure bad exit codes are shown as failures:
choco upgrade zelda3-launcher -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'"
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE
Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
Exit 0
}
Exit $exitCode

Zelda 3 Launcher
A minimalistic Launcher that will download and build Zelda 3, the reimplementation of The Legend of Zelda - A Link to the Past.
Installation
By default, the launcher will be installed to C:\Games\Zelda 3 Launcher
. The launcher will build the game into a subfolder called zelda3. A shortcut will to Zelda 3 Launcher be added to the desktop and start menu.
The launcher will ask for a rom. It has to be from the US region with this exact SHA256 hash: 66871D66BE19AD2C34C927D6B14CD8EB6FC3181965B6E517CB361F7316009CFB
.
Additionally, it needs to be located outside of the Zelda 3 Launcher directory.
When you first launch the launcher, it will have a button that says "Download". After it has finished downloading, you can play the game. The "Download" button will change to "Restore". This will make it build the game again. When the zelda3 repository is updated, the button will change to "Update", which will bulid the game again from the current repo.
Uninstallation
When uninstalling this package, it will remove both the launcher and the game, if the game is in the default zelda3 subdirectory. It will, however, backup save data and configuration.
See "Restore from backup" on how to restore from a backup.
See "Backup removal" if you want to remove the backup.
If you for some reason want to ununistall the Launcher and keep the game: move the zelda3 folder to any folder outside the "Zelda 3 Launcher" directory, and then uninstall the package.
If you only want to remove the game but keep the launcher: backup your save data and optionally the configuration file (see "Game data") by copying them to any location outside the zelda3
directory, then simply delete the zelda3 folder.
Restore from backup
To restore files from the backup, follow these steps in order:
- Download/build the game from the launcher
- Close the launcher.
- In Explorer, go to the Launcher's directory (default:
C:\Games\Zelda 3 Launcher
) - Move the contents of the
zelda3.bak@[save date]
folder into thezelda3
folder (there will be a timestamp in place of[save date]
). Replace all files when prompted. - Delete the now empty
zelda3.bak[save date]
folder.
Backup removal
If you want to remove save data and configuration file backup after uninstallation, you must do so manually. Just delete the Zelda 3 Launcher folder (default location: C:\Games\Zelda 3 Launcher
).
Game data
Default backup location: C:\Games\Zelda 3 Launcher\zelda3.bak[save date]
(but instead of [save date]
, there will be a timestamp)
Default configuration file location: C:\Games\Zelda 3 Launcher\zelda3\zelda3.ini
Default save data location: C:\Games\Zelda 3 Launcher\zelda3\Saves

# It would make sense to here set $lastModified to whichever was modified last ($saveDate or $configDate). However, in an edge case scenario, this might cause save data to be unintentionally overwritten when config is newer than save data. This could be alternatively solved via prompting, but that seems suboptimal for Chocolatey. So let's just prioritize last modified date of save file (i.e. $saveDate) over the config file's date ($configDate). We might lose config in rare cases, but at least save data won't be lost.

We let the user deal with that manually instead.

In cases where actual malware is found, the packages are subject to removal. Software sometimes has false positives. Moderators do not necessarily validate the safety of the underlying software, only that a package retrieves software from the official distribution point and/or validate embedded software against official distribution point (where distribution rights allow redistribution).
Chocolatey Pro provides runtime protection from possible malware.

- Made a change to closing settings window behavior so that it is consistent between the cancel button and the close (X) button.
- Fixed runaway CPU usage while zelda3.exe was running due to it waiting on the game to close and resume control.
