I was curious how the passwords are generated between The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons and Ages games. I have done some limited research on it, and have discovered that what you name your character and the newborn in the main town have an impact on it, as well as some predetermined game ID, but I was also interested how those were involved and how so much other data was compacted into the twenty character string. I found this out using a guide from IGN and a password generator executable.

What exactly is the question? Are you asking what is transferred by the password? Or are you asking about the algorithm used to generate the password? – WingManEXE Apr 26 at 14:02
