Basic Structure
Ocarina of Time comes with a 0x8000 byte SRAM unit for storing data.
| Offset | Size | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 0x0000 | 0x0020 | Header Data |
| 0x0020 | 0x1450 | Primary File 1 |
| 0x1470 | 0x1450 | Primary File 2 |
| 0x28C0 | 0x1450 | Primary File 3 |
| 0x3D10 | 0x1450 | Back-up File 1 |
| 0x5160 | 0x1450 | Back-up File 2 |
| 0x65B0 | 0x1450 | Back-up File 3 |
The back-up save files exist to prevent data loss in the event of an untimely power loss. When saving the game, the primary file will be written to first before the secondary back-up file, while when loading the game (done during the file select screen), the game will always attempt to load the primary save file before the back-up.
Header Format
| Offset | Type | Usage | Info |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0x00 | byte | Sound Options | |
| 0x01 | byte | Z-Target Options | 0 for Switch, 1 for Hold |
| 0x02 | byte | Language Options | |
| 0x03 | char[9] | If different, all options are reset | Contains the string "\x98\x09\x10\x21ZELDA" |
| 0x0C | byte[5] | Padding | Commercial releases padded with 0x00, debug with 0xAB |
Save File Validation
In order to prevent the player from loading a corrupted save, two checks are performed to verify that a save file is valid. One checks that offset 0x1C in the save contains the string "ZELDAZ". The other verifies a 16 bit checksum located at offset 0x1352. The checksum is calculated by summing the first 0x1352 bytes as a series of 0x9A9 shorts, allowing the count to roll over. Values located past the checksum are stored to sram but are not copied back when loading the save, and thus go unused.
File Creation Data
| Version | Offset | VRom | VRam | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Debug | 10D680 | 00BA1680 | ? | 8012A4E0 | ? |
| NTSC 1.0 | 0EAE60 | 00B71E60 | ? | 800FBF00 | ? |
| NTSC 1.2 | 0EAE70 | 00B71E70 | ? | 800FC550 | ? |
In code, there's a structure that contains a collection of data relevant to file creation and management.
| Start | End | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0000 | 000C | u16[6] | Save File Offsets |
| 000C | 0018 | struct | Initial Settings Data |
| 0018 | 00D8? | struct | New File Save Data (ZELDA) |
| 00D8 | struct | Title Screen/Dev Test Save Data (ZELDAZ) | |
| 0190 | u16[16] | Either savewarp or death respawns (likely save warp) |
At BA1693 in the Debug Rom, there is a string that says "ZELDA." This string marks the start of the default save data table, which is copied into offset 0x1C into the save file. Using this, you can set up some of the initial save data, up until the scene flags.
Save Context
The "Save Context" is a term used to reference the z_common_data structure, or the home address of the variables saved by the game. Since the save file is created by copying the 0x1450 bytes from the start of the save context, it's possible to peek in ram to determine what each save variable does.

Structs
Permanent Scene Flags
The structure for the scene related save data. Located at offset 0xD4 into the save file. Each record is 0x1C bytes long. There are 101 records, one for each scene.
| offset | type | use | description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0000 | Int32 | Chest Flags | Set exclusively by chest actors. see actor list for setting this value |
| 0004 | Int32 | Switches | Stores most other other dungeon progression related flags such as locked doors, switches. |
| 0008 | Int32 | Room Clear Flags | Stores the room clear flags, preventing most enemies from spawning. One bit is reserved for each room, thus giving a limit of 32 rooms. |
| 000C | Int32 | Collectible Flags | Stores whether a particular collectable item (like Heart Containers, Key Item) has been obtained permanently |
| 0010 | Int32 | Unused | |
| 0014 | Int32 | Visited Rooms | Stores what rooms have been visited, for when displaying the map screen in dungeons. |
| 0018 | Int32 | Visited Floors | Stores what floors have been visited, for when displaying the map screen in dungeons. |
Event Flags
Orange rows indicate bytes for which no event flags have (yet) been identified.
All event flags are implemented as an array of u16 values.
A byte value between 00-DF is used to access this set of flags. For example:
- 00-07 flips a bit at offset 0ED5.
- 08-0F flips a bit at offset 0ED4.
To figure out what byte is set, divide the flag by 0x10, drop remainder for later (for now), multiply by 2, and add 0ED4 to find the offset to the halfword our byte is in.
0xB5 / 0x10 = 0x0B 0x0B * 0x02 = 0x16 0x16 + 0ED4 = 0EEA
Then, divide the original flag by 10h again, keeping only the remainder, and add to the offset based on the following:
- 00-07 = +1.
- 08-0F = +0.
0xB5 % 0x10 = 0x05. Since 5 falls within 0-7, the modified byte is 0xEEB
Once you've found the right byte, figuring out the right bit is easy. Just take the right digit of the flag's value, divide it by 2 if it's larger than 7, giving you a value between 0 and 7
0 flips the rightmost bit (00 becomes 01) 1 flips the second rightmost bit (00 becomes 02) 2 flips the third rightmost bit (00 becomes 04) etc.
