Hollow Knight Randomizer 4 vs Ocarina of Time Randomizer

Hollow Knight Randomizer 4 is a free Windows mod that changes item placements and transitions for Hollow Knight patch 1.5 and later. Item pools can include skills, charms, keys, shards, relics, maps, grubs, and boss essence. Transition settings range from no randomization to Map Area Randomizer, Full Area Randomizer, and Room Randomizer. Additional options include Randomize Swim, Randomize Nail, Split Claw, Split Cloak, and Split Superdash. Players can save and load settings profiles, and generate shareable codes for base randomizer settings; codes correspond to a specific mod version. RandoSettingsManager can synchronize randomizer settings and most connection mod settings, with an internet connection required for its codes. The mod writes tracker, helper, and spoiler logs to the Randomizer 4 folder in the save directory. It requires Hollow Knight Modding API for patch 1.5 or later, MenuChanger, ItemChanger, RandomizerCore, and RandomizerCore.Json. It does not support Hollow Knight patches 1.4.3.2 or earlier. Benchwarp and QoL are strongly recommended and may be necessary for some logic or modes. The repository identifies the license as LGPL-2.1.

Ocarina of Time Randomizer changes where items appear in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, creating a different playthrough. Its logic is designed to make every seed completable without glitches and avoid softlocks, even with any possible dungeon-key use. Players can adjust item and entrance placement, pots, crates, cows, shop prices, songs, cosmetic settings, starting inventory, and damage settings. The web generator lets users choose options, generate a seed, and patch a ROM in the browser. Generating and playing a seed requires an Ocarina of Time 1.0 NTSC-U or NTSC-J ROM. The site recommends a multicore CPU, at least 1.5 GB of RAM, and an updated browser. Mobile patching is supported but slower; listed device support includes Android phones with 2 GB or more of RAM and iPhone 5 or newer running iOS 10. Offline builds are available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. The project is free and open source. Its site points users to racetime.gg for races and Discord for discussion and help.
