Minibosses

I'm not sure if I'm asking in the right place, but i'm curious on how the miniboss scripts work. I want to use Vire, the miniboss in the 6th level, in a password game, when you enter the room, the controls are disabled and text pops up saying something about onox and some other stuff and then he the battle begins, yet when I look on ZOLE, and check the script, there is no script for that room. Is the script read from the miniboss data?

There are no scripts when dealing with bosses, except for the doors working and things that get created which include heart containers, fairies, and the miniboss portal. The bosses get spawned by one of the green interactions. The other green interaction which is usually around 46 forces Link to walk up. However, you need both interactions to make it work properly.

So basically, the minibosses are loaded probably from some other data table in the ROM. I haven't looked into them.

Darn. I wanted to use Vire, specifically the sprite and place it through out the dungeon, making him say different things depending on what items you have acquired, but not attacking you, until the miniboss room.

You could always replace an NPC's sprite with Vire's.

[Invertfreak]

yeah but sadly I'm not sure how to do that.

Actually minbosses are enemy data, and the only difference between the green spawn and a regular spawn code is that F4 will set the boss flag when everything is defeated.

Changing things around will involve ASM, though I recall in Seasons there is a spot where Vire shows up outside of a miniboss room, so perhaps there exists somthing similar in Ages.
