New++ Super Mario Bros

[fossil token]

ill fix the animation frames of the hit blocks and stuff then do the broken block particals

the best part is what my desktop looks like now lol

I really need to set up file share so I can also work on the hack on my pc but im lazy

[wide furnace]

oh i was gonna mention it

[wide furnace]

fuck.png

lmfaoo what?? LMAO.png 😭

others are funny too

honestly i kinda felt like the old question blocks had a slightly different shape that really gave it a lot of charm and that i really liked

probably because the question mark was bolder or something

[lapis lark]

NewUwU.png 🔥

[wide furnace]

tho overall the new jyotyu stuff looks better

usually i always put stuff in somewhat organized folders, with numbers at the end (when saving multiple backups of the same thing, or merging layers)

why do people put files on their desktop, that's criminal 😭

i only put folders and apps shortcuts. i rarely put any files

btw i should really redo the TRQ jyotyu

[fossil token]

the shape was basically the same, just diffrent shadow intensity

[fossil token]

this bubble looks really bad

good thing I dont use them at all

[fossil token]

thing im done, this is the underground one

ill show off the rest in a sec

normal

[wide furnace]

the spike block has weird colors, especially on the outlines

also the spikes tho

same for the edges of the red event block

they're green

[fossil token]

snow

volcano

[fossil token]

they look fine to me

this one is the colour blind special :3

I just havent fixed them yet

since I dont use them

[wide furnace]

i kinda guessed it was because of color blindness

[rich palm]

Feels very The New Worlds inspired; looks great!

[stoic lava]

A thing i feel that is weird is the mushroom, shell, flower n such sprites cuz they dont fit nsmb at all, ig same as nsmbu jyotyu and coins, but it looks really nice!

[rich palm]

I think it fits N++ and Illy's style

And definitely fits more than...the N-word hack's...

[analog oracle]

i think it could be made less compressed tho tbh

[wraith gust]

I think everything looks fine, my only complain is that the question blocks have a severe contrast in the lower part, which makes them look weird

You should probably try to use a brighter color to fix this

[fossil token]

oh yeah, the gradient got fucked

use to be more colours there before it got imported

[fossil token]

yeah it def could, I gave up when nsmbe overwrote graphics with the graphics from other files and crap

[wide furnace]

maybe it would be better if you use nitropaint instead?

[fossil token]

wouldnt make a diffrence, cause you always need to touch up the colours a tiny bit in nsmbe

[wraith gust]

I think it'd be much better to do some manual changes before even importing it into NSMBe

[fossil token]

I did put it through nitro paint to reduce the colours before hand as well

[wide furnace]

can't you touch up the colors in nitropaint though? (not fully sure if it's possible tho)

[fossil token]

yeah

im just sick of editing this tile set

its an improvment over my last one

[wide furnace]

fair

[fossil token]

So I was messing around with two lemmy's at once since the game cant handle three

and omfg

this shit is nearly immposible

the vid that I half 40 min of footage for only saw five attempts get to phase two and most of those I died staright away

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kT0PkhyAtpk

[fathom kraken]

Illy, could you do an example on how to use your lakithunder castle tileset?

Cause it's a little confusing...

[lapis lark]

whenever i get a notif from this post i think its the real ndy for a sec

[wide furnace]

since JPG64 made a checkpoint model, some ideas came to my mind for this hack's checkpoint model:

• replacing Bowser's face with Bowser Jr's
• Making the "mushroom kingdom" flag (like the vanilla nsmbds) appear when you touch the checkpoint. that is, if you don't feel like making an image for each player

[fossil token]

I’m gonna leave the checkpoint model how is is for now until I come up with the designs

[fossil token]

What about it is confusing?

[wide furnace]

okay then

[fathom kraken]

I was confused on how to use the bottom tiles but I figured it out

-# Sorry for ping

[fossil token]

there, yoshi ones aren't final and they are not compressed yet

was thinking of putting a bath bomb on ndy's one originally but people wouldnt get the joke

[fathom kraken]

Oh ndy is still buggy

[ocean pivot]

definitely yellow flags should go more towards orange hue rather green but yeah

and i hope the yoshi icons won’t have that weird shading

[fossil token]

oh they wont, I just grabed a yoshi egg png as a place holder lmao

[north garnet]

Ndy should have a banhammer that gives him a melee attack every time he does a midair twirl.

[olive owl]

Lmao

[fossil token]

You’re says I’m not meant to show this but damn, my yt has been doing really well this month

[hexed torrent]

Wait, you’re austerilian?

[tepid temple]

fuck she's austerilian, i can't be excited for this hack anymore

[stoic lava]

LMAO

[fossil token]

Woke up on the middle of the night with an idea for a b side

Scale lift raises and lowers
Lava

Don’t know how it will work but it’s on the coding board now

[wide furnace]

interesting

[fossil token]

yeah that probably wont work

I could do some kind of thing which ties it to the up and down stretchy mushrooms or make some platform that changes lava hight

[foggy flare]

I NEED SPIKE!!!!!!

[fossil token]

[polar fjord]

[fossil token]

havent made any progress in the last few days, I finished my trial exams yesterday and I have a lot of schoolwork to catch up on in the next few days that I put aside to study for those trial exams

might try to make a list of actors I can replace thought

and find the addresses of their profiles and stuff

yeah, I can probably get rid of a lot of the under water stuff

idk though, I may still make some under water levels

got these ones to start with

[hexed torrent]

What are these for?

[fossil token]

read these messages above the image

[fossil token]

doing a non-under water level with these actors

I think it fits

sushis only are used in floating water bubbles, the water at the bottom of 1-2 and here which I find kinda funny

[polar fjord]

my ass thought that was water

the sand

[fossil token]

it hadnet been tiles yet lol

this is what it actaully looks like

[polar fjord]

the bush looks weird

the purple shading… i think

idk if it’s shading but the purple and the blue on the bush look kinda weird
i think you should change it

[fossil token]

thats on purposes

[polar fjord]

oh

well then peak

ig

[fossil token]

the idea is that everything is meant to feel slightly off in the parallel levels

[polar fjord]

sushi should be the next npc driver in mkw trust

[fossil token]

there is smth so amusing about watching the sushi's die to a fire ball whilst not underwater lmao

(saying fire ball cause that is basically what a hammer is since it runs the fire ball death state of most actors)

[polar fjord]

the vid won’t load

[fossil token]

sushis dont have koopa shell collision :p

gonna need to fix that

[hexed torrent]

I noticed the Pokémon soundfont.

[flat lily]

Beautiful I am the star of illycat

Am of the top 5% of viewers who created the most hype in September

[delicate bramble]

@flat lily italiano?

[fossil token]

🔥

[fossil token]

yeah, I use it a lot

just has a lot of instruments

[flat lily]

Yes

[stoic sapphire]

Hey your romhack was reccomended to me on youtube
Nice work :3 Good for 2 yaears, very goods actually

[fossil token]

Thank you

It’s more like I have been working on this for four years, but two years ago I restarted everything

[polar fjord]

why’d you restart?

[fossil token]

https://youtu.be/5gSHK5RXEc8?si=rXafL1Z2uyNEBl93

This should explain it

[polar fjord]

i mean idgaf but everyone else does it

idk

i think i see why

[rich palm]

Ngl, it's super impressive that it's still going strong

[fossil token]

the spike top setting in cheap cheaps is fun :3

the one thing is, if there block is destroyed then you got problems

[polar fjord]

why does it exist

[fossil token]

need to rewrite their"on block hit" state

[fossil token]

cause nintendo coded them

[polar fjord]

nintendo weird

https://tenor.com/view/kai-cenat-kai-cenat-getting-incinarated-stupid-kai-cenat-gif-9215513597569682999

[fossil token]

overlay 25 0x0213BF00

just noting that down cause I have to go to class soon

[amber zephyr]

so flying sharks and fish

is B side gonna feature only that or extra?

[fossil token]

idk

[polar fjord]

b side should have a giant sushi

basically king bill

or giant eel

[fossil token]

B sides have whatever the hell I feel like

[fossil token]

sushi's and eels are incompatiable

[polar fjord]

they function similarly though

at least

that’s what i was thinking

[lapis lark]

that looks so drinkable

https://tenor.com/view/lean-mug-tumbler-gif-13081232

[amber zephyr]

illy have you ever tried coding the grape juice to be non transpoarent?

[wide furnace]

they're incompatible in terms of sprite sets

[polar fjord]

so?

is it not possible to make a custom actor?

if it isn’t

um

[fossil token]

Why would I want too?

[amber zephyr]

Idk the nsmb2 juice looks good

[fossil token]

Also needs to be this way for a b side

5-castles

Since it has really fast position going up and down and the player should be able to see the level that’s in poison

[amber zephyr]

Okey

Illy how did you do the footstep hack?

Like were there any difficulties matching it with mario's speed?

[fossil token]

Funny thing is that’s actually a side effect of the addition player sound effects

It doesn’t play in the base game due to a bug

[amber zephyr]

Ahh

[tepid temple]

you sure? to me it looks like a conscious decision

[fossil token]

Maybe that’s the case, not sure tbh

Overwriting the function with the same one makes it play

[wide furnace]

now that you say it, yeah i always felt like there was something off with the footstep since around the time Illy/you added the extra characters code hack, but couldn't put my finger on what exactly

[fossil token]

damn

you can just do this for coin cheep cheeps

coin cheep cheep is another free actor profile for me then

yup all there settings are in the normal cheep cheep actor

someone should add that to the editor config stuff

[wide furnace]

wow interesting

just be warned, the jumping cheep cheep behavior is different between the "cheep cheep" sprite and "jumping cheep cheep" sprite (the latter is unused and bounces on the water surface iirc)

[fossil token]

Ik

[fossil token]

mario party ds music slaps hard

ima rip some for B sides and cassette rooms

[civic cloud]

Hell yeah

I love the boss theme

[fossil token]

The one painful thing is that I need to redo the swar’s

[restive tusk]

This mod looks great :33

[fossil token]

[fossil token]

nsmb2 ahh setup

[lapis lark]

nsmb2 indeed
now all this vid is missing is a bah in every beat of the music

[civic cloud]

Maybe I'm tired but I found the way it just squirts groups of coins periodically instead of continuously funny 🤣🤣🤣

It's like when you're peeing the last few drops that ain't easily coming out

[fathom kraken]

What a strange example

[civic cloud]

First thing that came to mind 😭😭😭

[fathom kraken]

That's concerning

[restive tusk]

Finally, i can feed my coin addiction! :333

[lapis lark]

thanks
now i cant unsee it 💔💔🥀🥀

[fossil token]

im thinking of making snow w4 and twilight town w5 due to some difficulty things

also cause wm layouts and I dont know if ima be able to get them all modeled

[fossil token]

also cause I dont wanna change the roy fight much more and its kinda easy

im just leaving him as his main clown car phase, no scrolling

[fossil token]

one of the nice things is it allows me to have a good spot for the one freeze flame level

gotta find out how to move those wm particals from w5 to w4 though

there is some slight vertex colouring here or smth which is really pissing me off

probablly gonna make the ice part of the tree model to avoid that

[fossil token]

progress

[wraith gust]

Vertex coloring in vanilla worldmaps 🥀

[fossil token]

now I need to find a spot for the airship

I think 4-a is the only spot I can since there is no paths comming off it

@wraith gust

its far from perfect as seen in the vid but I think its a slight improvement

[wraith gust]

Peak

Maybe this is too much to ask, but would it be possible to make the tree next to 4-A use a different texture? Since 4-A in my hack is an autumn level I thought it'd be a good idea to add an autumnal tree so that it makes sense

[fossil token]

send me the texture

will only take two secconds

if u want I can add a plane with an image of a leaf pile there and other stuff

[wraith gust]

That would be great, yeah

[fossil token]

will finish it soon

[wraith gust]

[hexed torrent]

So how does World Bowser work?

[fossil token]

the toad house is one with the trees lmao

well hopefully that does the job for you ztar

[fossil token]

there is no world bowser

bowser isnt in this hack

[hexed torrent]

The ninth World

[wraith gust]

Yeah, this seems fine, huge thanks

[fossil token]

np

done

[fossil token]

its a single really long level and you can accsess the checkpoints from a menu

okay gonna make a pole about smth related to iggy and roy

[fossil token]

laptop overheat like hell lmao

[ocean pivot]

whoever chooses first option is getting married with me

thanks

[wide furnace]

i see an unfixed secret exit path animation...

pretty sure meromero made a simple code hack to patch it

also the new worldmap looks nice

[fossil token]

The hard thing is that Roy’s tower is snow themed

Snow I would need to retire it :p

I do want Iggy in world 4 though

[fossil token]

:3

[fossil token]

It’s such an iconic thing that I kinda don’t wanna patch it

[wide furnace]

oh 😭 well okay then

[fathom kraken]

Woah! Love that new map!

[foggy flare]

It looks great!

[fossil token]

thanks

still need to find the code for the wm snow particals

waiting for people to respond to it

[wide furnace]

wait i thought there were snow particles already

[fossil token]

nope

the twilight town ground looks kinda weird on the map at times due to it being circles

the clarity changes as you move around

[amber zephyr]

it looks spooky

so pretty good

[analog oracle]

you could try making the shadow texture itself be blue instead of white, maybe it’ll help

[wraith gust]

It's in spl_coursesel.spa from the particle folder, if you wanna get rid of the snow particles just replace all these with 0's

[tepid temple]

no

i wrote some code for jpg that does this

it's somewhere

[wraith gust]

"I mAed a KoWd 4 JAipEEgEE"

/j

[fathom kraken]

Jpg, there isn't any button!!!

[fossil token]

Thank you

[fossil token]

lmao you can do some funny stuff with that code

[fossil token]

mario party ds midi slap for w8 theme

[iron igloo]

well that was a helpful poll lol

[wraith gust]

And then everyone clapped

[fossil token]

now I want to do it on my youtube to see the result

I feel like its just people wanting the koopaling they like better in a later world

[wraith gust]

I personally think it's a bit pointless, if you ask on YT I feel some people would vote randomly just for the sake of voting

[fossil token]

yeah lol, I wanna see if it will end up 50/50 though lmao

anyways, w5 map progress

music is some random ass track from Coraline ds

random ass movie game that has kinda decent music so I slaped it into the nsmbds sound front :p

I still need to add villagers and houses to the map

[wraith gust]

Nice, not much of a fan of the camera movement though

Coraline is a really good movie, I didn't know it had a game for the DS, lmao

[fathom kraken]

Woah, maps

[fossil token]

I need to lock the camera movment to specific worlds or just get rid of it

[amber zephyr]

love the map lilly

[fossil token]

I didnt until I was board one night lmao, I want to play it but when I tried it felt so clunky

[wraith gust]

Do you mean "bored"? Lmao

Also, it doesn't really surprise me at all considering many movies have their own games, I played two Garfield games as a kid which are really cool and that I definitely recommend if you have nothing else to do

[fossil token]

yeah, im tried lmao. Had work for five hours today and I have also played chess for like four hours today cause im in high school chess state finals tmr

[wraith gust]

You should maybe get some sleep and definitely not stay awake too late writing massive lines of code

[lapis lark]

good luck

[fossil token]

its only 8.50pm

I woke up at 8.30

and I get to sleep in until 8.00am tmr cause im going to school a bit later cause I dont have classes on

[ivory bear]

How did you put a "secret" world after World 8?

[amber zephyr]

https://tenor.com/view/ghostedvpn-hacker-cat-bongo-cat-keyboard-cat-hacker-gif-4373606555250453292

[fossil token]

it depends on what you want it to function as

its currently just a button that crashes the game and sets the world to w-a

[fossil token]

also, what do yall think about those redish clouds or whatever on the twilight town map

[wide furnace]

do you mean the sand wind?

i think that works. (though they're orange-yellow, not really red)

it would be nice to change the footstep sounds based on the worldmaps tho (here for example, swapping the w4 and w5 sounds)

[fossil token]

thats on the todo list

need to find the function that controls those sounds

[wide furnace]

okay

[fossil token]

done

ncp_over(0x020E95C8, 8)
static const s32 mapFootSteps[8]{
  0x12, 0x14, 0x12, 0x15, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12, 0x12
};

here is the array if anybody wants it

[rich palm]

The maps are looking great!

[fossil token]

I ended up getting 2.5 wins out of 7 lmao

it was states though so yeah, not like I had a chance

now, time to do the "dont get nail polish on keyboard" challenge as I work on this hack with we nails :3

https://github.com/NSMBC/Code-Mods/blob/main/MiscPatches/mapicons256.s

this patch seams kinda sketch

just gonna use the normal system I guess

[restive tusk]

Very hard challenge :3

[fossil token]

It was :3, minimal nail polish ended up on keyboard thankfully

[restive tusk]

GG :3

[olive owl]

You should change your nails out with key caps for optimal typing

[fossil token]

this jr text box is perfect

ima try and rip it

[civic cloud]

MPDS elements getting incorporated in your mod is awesome

[runic storm]

I'm so excited for this ROM Hack to release holy sh*t

I'm sorry if this sounds annoying (somehow). Hopefully I could help with this project in the future! I can import custom skeleton, retargeted animations and even design the character models!

[fossil token]

it depends if I can rip them

[fossil token]

[fossil token]

I dont plan on doing any more playable characters, they are to much work

[runic storm]

I can to try help at least perhaps. I'm making an Donkey Kong themed hack for 64 DS btw.

[civic cloud]

Nice

[fossil token]

so, im thinking of how I should do the w3 map

and one of my ideas is to switch the map model every 10 or so seconds to be the parallel side

[restive tusk]

That sounds very cool! :3333

[fossil token]

yeah

and it shouldnt be that hard to do

[onyx lantern]

One moment everything is fine and then everything becomes Sonic.exe after 10 seconds-

[wide furnace]

interesting. maybe also adding a short flickering effect if possible? (switch, switch back, then switch again, in less than a second)

[fossil token]

yeah

the other idea is to write a crappy 2d map engine, but using the og maps seams much better

[wraith gust]

How about making it so that the worldmap switches between the normal and the parallel side every time you exit a level?

[fossil token]

was thinking of smth like that

dont know how well it would work though

expressing the worlds theme on a map is pretty hard lol

[fossil token]

so I just made it 50/50 which map you get

will also need to change the map music table to do this as well

[fossil token]

thank fuck this band around the sand isnt a vertex colour

[fossil token]

okay having the map just randomly be the other one can feel so weird

ill showcase it in a sec

there is a crash I get very rarely though

    return ((OS_GetTick() >> 20) & 1) == 0;
}

ncp_jump(0x020ce214, 8)
u64 GetWorldModelsNew(int world, int index){
  if(IsEvenSecond())
    return worldMapModels2[world][index];
  else 
    return worldMapModels[world][index];
}```

changing it from a u32 to a u64 made it happen a lot less but it still happens after a while

[olive owl]

Strange

Where are you jumping to your code?

[fossil token]

look at the hook

the function that loads the world map models is replaced

I made that code hack which allows you to change what models a map loads ages ago

[olive owl]

I was asking because I can’t pull up Ghidra rn :p

Honestly nvm I probably wouldn’t be able to fix it anyway

Imposter code modder syndrome oh yeah oh yeah

[fossil token]

the function in ghidra litrally just returns a value from that table, mine is just a custom one that doesnt use ncp_over and instead replaces the call as well so it can support w9's models

[olive owl]

Oh hmm

[fossil token]

I was flicking through worlds for five min until I got the crash again

I have no clue whats going on

need to try it on melon

still so random

I did try more recordings and didnt get this to happen, yes it can start on either normal or parallel when you enter the world for the first time, it just didnt roll normal

[tepid temple]

don't do this

[fossil token]

I don’t want too

It wastes so much ram

Reminder to self that these could make a cool level

[tepid temple]

nah it's cause the function isn't meant to return a u64

[tepid temple]

my guess is that the issue is with IsEvenSecond
OS_GetTick gets how many cycles have passed, so it will be different each call. So when GetWorldModelsNew gets called from onPrepareResources, it might get a different model than when it's called from loadWorldmapModels

[civic cloud]

That's so cool

Is the parallel world feature exclusive to the beach world?

[fossil token]

Oh that makes sense

[fossil token]

Yeah

[civic cloud]

Cool, that's actually interesting cuz I had a similar idea at some point, water levels with paranormal elements, dimension hopping and all that

I imagined it being somewhat similar to Wet Dry World in concept gameplay wise

[fossil token]

yeah, gets called a lot, maybe I could save the value when the scene is created and always use that value until the scene is switched

[tepid temple]

good idea

[fossil token]

does this biome point look alright?

its part of the tree model

[wide furnace]

honestly i wouldn't have known this if you didn't point it out. it fits well

[fossil token]

wonder if people would care about this being slightly off center :3

I dont think it is really off center even, I think its just the paths

I swear the airship always ends up in like the same position on each map

I dont know if I want the airship to be on the main or sub path in w3 though

[fossil token]

gonna make 5-ship a tank level based on blockhoppers I think

[wide furnace]

interesting

[fossil token]

this is looking like ass

[wide furnace]

i think it looks fine, but lacks some details maybe. tho i feel like it needs more stuff for a tank texture

[fossil token]

It’s a first draft that I drew in five min, I’ll come up with smth else

The other idea is that the player actually drives a tank

[lapis lark]

wouldnt have noticed had u not mentioned it
now i cant unsee it

oh that looks fine in the video

[wide furnace]

i do... and i hate it. this is not "slightly"
fair if you don't feel like fixing it tho

[hexed torrent]

SAND

[rich palm]

I wouldnt've unless you pointed it out

[fossil token]

Also, I’m thinking of replacing the item actor with the a fully rewritten one that supports future multiplayer and uses 3d models

Since that way I can get rid of the bubble powerups since they hog a lot of vram

[fossil token]

Honestly I think it’s the clash of the three different paths that makes it look more offcenter than it is

I’ll try redoing it today when I get back from my friends house

We doing exam prep

[fossil token]

yummy mario 3 tank wheels

just have them as a place holder for now

I think it kinda does the job,

I just can not be fucked drawing a new tile set

[delicate bramble]

are animated?

[fossil token]

[warped briar]

[fossil token]

Don’t worry, they are place holders until I draw my own

[fossil token]

this looks kinda decent

gonna mess around a bit more

I like this feel though, reminds me of the newer weii tank

wait, I just remembered this

it could honestly do the job with some changes

[fathom kraken]

Oh, is that the unused bonus room tileset?

Great idea

[fossil token]

yeah this could work

[warped briar]

Did Mario 3 also have diagonal stripes for all the tanks?

Every tank tileset I see has those stripes

[wide furnace]

tanks in smb3 had wood logs, just like airships

[warped briar]

Are the diagonal lines just a staple in the modding scene cause of Newer then?

[fossil token]

yeah

im just doing it cause its kinda the best way to do these colousr even though its not like it. Also cause that unused tile set is stripes

[wide furnace]

probably

[fossil token]

it kinda works

I think it works with the twilight town theme

[warped briar]

Modding inbreeding

[wide furnace]

that's the most cursed thing i've heard/read today

[wraith gust]

.................

[tepid temple]

he's right

being inspired by newer is inherently incestuous

[foggy flare]

find the hidden typo

[wraith gust]

Acotrs

[rich palm]

Maybe boss fights
One new power-ups

Yeeaah, I think we evolved past that...just a bit

Just a smidge

[fossil token]

Ncp came out, that’s all I can say. Couldn’t do a lot if this stuff as easily with fire flowers

I was also very inexperienced with c++ back then

[wraith gust]

We all started small

It's neat to see how much this hack has evolved

[fossil token]

random ass limits that would make a custom jyotyu a nightmare

other useful thing here is that it loads the "course clear" text

well mario / luigi

could probably make it for each charecter

[fossil token]

that is a nightmare

im not doing it lmao

:3

bottom screen progress

the oam nightmares of getting the try inventory working are comming back to me

wtf does it have to be on this sheet

😭

thankfully yoshis shouldnt take much room

its feels bad making jouners icon like this but I have to use exsisting palettes

okay it may not be that bad

got it

I just render on top of the pre exsisting icon cause im lazy

if I have space ill get rid of the old mario and luigi ones all together

but this bit map is very tight

[fossil token]

cursed ass yoshi icon

I cut powerup graphics in half and flip them when I can so im trying the same thing here

[fossil token]

layed them out like this

massive fucking pain

had to redo a lot of shit to fix the borrom screen powerups

mario = 9

luigi = 14

the mario one looks very warm due to the limitations lmao

the bloody life number is in the same oam atribute shits as the head render

so I cant just nuke the function

[fossil token]

anybody want a cut in half mario and waluigi head /j

its nice to finally have these even though they look like ass

[lapis lark]

[foggy flare]

[wide furnace]

is it an official product? if it is then yes please

[fossil token]

calculating the position of this arrow was a nightmare

on the bitmap

[wide furnace]

it was a nightmare on the bitmap

[fossil token]

got it

the head is a lil big which is kinda weid due to how its compressed so I may shrink the arrow

wanna calculate the positions of all the other player heads first

they all just needed a shift of one pixel lol, so only mario and luigi were painful

done

[wide furnace]

Waluigi and Luigi have gray skin which makes them look like they have the Wither disease from Minecraft Story Mode 😭

apart from that it looks nice

[fossil token]

lmao

you try to have this many player icons all sharing the same palattes of every bottom screen graphic

[wide furnace]

yeah seems complicated

i would still expect the skin color to be right if it's shared though, since i assume the human players have the same skin colors

but i can see how it's complicated

[fossil token]

um no, how could the skin colour be shared if they all need to be on diffrent palettes for their hat colours

i just dont have enough colours to work with

[wide furnace]

you said this. so i probably got confused

oh didn't read the "of every bottom screen graphic" part properly

[fossil token]

still gotta do the world map one :c

will probably do that at a later date though

[fossil token]

thinking about that, I could maybe use all of them as the full 256 pal

its not optimal for saving memory though

[fossil token]

I think these tanks look decent

i just need to add the pipe cannons and some deco and animated wheels

[lapis lark]

i love the combination of the colour of the tanks and the background
i cant explain it but it just feels so right

[wide furnace]

it's... literally the same colors...

but yeah i guess it feels right

[fossil token]

thats the point, tanks are usually painted to camouflage into their environment

[wide furnace]

yeah, it's just that the way he said it made it sound like it wasn't different colors

also please avoid ping replies unless i'm asking for help about something

[amber zephyr]

I like tank

I've got the midi

[fossil token]

what midi?

Im probs just gonna use koopa road or a airship theme

[amber zephyr]

Oh okay

Newer wii tank

Which is just a remix of a bowsers road

So yeah

[fossil token]

this hack is meant to be newer free :p

[amber zephyr]

Eh. Not like newer made the theme i think

But i understand

[wraith gust]

Then why do you keep calling it "the Newer midi"? Lol

[amber zephyr]

Sorry, it is because I am not the perfect person in this world and make mistakes myself. Altought what could be a reason why I call it 'Newer midi' is that this specific remix is only heard in newer wii.

[ocean pivot]

Love that your icons don't have 16 colour limit

POV: Newer:

[wide furnace]

can people just constantly stop comparing hacks to newer? it's getting annoying

in this case, it's like smb3 not like newer

[rich palm]

https://tenor.com/view/brick-up-my-sleeve-mr-boss-allan-smiling-friends-i-got-a-brick-gif-7769743629895851712

[wraith gust]

I really hope people stops glazing Newer once all our hacks release, it has occupied the throne for many years and people only seem to give importance to that hack

[wide furnace]

true, it's quite annoying when there are many nice hacks out there

tho i also feel like it's caused by the popularity of newer wii. i don't think i would have known about newer ds if i didn't know about newer wii.

i think we should stop there tho, or move to another channel. i don't wanna pollute Illy's thread (especially about newer-related stuff)

[warped briar]

I mean, this literally takes from Newer tho

[wide furnace]

i repeat, smb3

now please we should stop talking about it

[warped briar]

SMB3 didn't have diagonal stripes

[wide furnace]

the stripes are the only thing here that are similar to newer

[warped briar]

I think that's quite an apparent thing

[wraith gust]

Just because the pattern is similar doesn't mean Illy is intentionally copying Newer

[ocean pivot]

oh no, someone gets inspiration the same way Newer did or just inspires from Newer to make something even better

lets cancel that person

https://tenor.com/view/ishowspeed-fortnite-side-eye-ishowspeed-fortnite-gif-6262345380873947243

[ocean pivot]

why not make thanks 3d model or generally inspired my monty boss?

[warped briar]

I'm just saying that the comparison to Newer is accurate

[ocean pivot]

that would fit perfect

maybe small colour change if needed but still

also green like in original would go great with red bg

[warped briar]

I would love to see a tank level that takes inspiration from the tanks in 3D World

[wraith gust]

Yes, but Illy has already expressed before that she hates when people compares hacks to Newer (which is completely reasonable), so we should refrain from even mentioning that hack in the first place

[warped briar]

I can see how it can get tiring

But that's just how it is 🤷‍♂️

[fossil token]

Damn, didn’t know using an unused tile set = newer and that tank level = newer and the background music being koopa road since it’s in slot 0 and haven’t changed it = newer and that my other tank concepts = newer and that not even knowing what the newer tanks look like besides them having stripes = newer and that using a striped tank image and other tank images I found on google as reference = newer, and that having a planer part of a level that you drive a tank = newer and that having enemies that drive tanks = newer

[warped briar]

Unused tileset?

[fossil token]

I’m gonna scrap the tank level, the comparison of every tiny detail is lissing me off

[wraith gust]

The unused bonus room tileset

[warped briar]

Ah

I see

[wide furnace]

planned a part of a level that you drive a tank?!
holy peak...

[warped briar]

That's an unfortunate coincidence in that case

[wraith gust]

You don't have to scrap the level if you don't want, I know these comparisons can be really annoying, but if you really wanna keep the tank level and are tired of the Newer comparisons, I would personally suggest making a new tank tileset that doesn't have stripes, people have a severe fetish with Newer despite the hack being more than a decade old

[wide furnace]

i honestly don't think it's worth scrapping the level for this. you also seem to have interesting ideas for it

[wide furnace]

a severe fetish with newer
😭

[warped briar]

Diagonal stripes is certainly not new to Newer, but multicoloured stripes like that is a rare pattern to see in the Mario series, and tank levels are also a rare sight
The combination of diagonal stripes with tanks in Newer is more than specific enough to be recognisable

[wraith gust]

Can we please let this topic end?

[warped briar]

Independently coming up with using diagonal stripes for tanks... an unfortunate coincidence

[wide furnace]

i also find it interesting that you managed to import the koopa road theme (from sm64ds i assume?). i've heard that importing it into nsmb wouldn't work (probably because it's too large)

[wraith gust]

It's not too large, the reason why the SSEQ from SM64DS doesn't work is because the Koopa's Road SBNK uses wave archive 1 isntead of 0

[wide furnace]

does nsmb have only wave archive 0?

[wraith gust]

No

SBNK's can use a total of 4 wave archives (also known as SWAV's), NSMB usually has only one wave archive per SBNK, and SM64DS has two for most of their banks, the first one contains "common" instruments while the second one includes instruments that are exclusive to the song they correspond to, in the case of the Koopa's Road SSEQ, the "common" wave archive is not used in its SBNK, which means that it only contains the second wave archive, so if you want to get the song working in NSMB, you have to link the second wave archive to the SWAV the song uses and set the first wave archive to "FFFF - Blank"

[wide furnace]

oh okay, so that's pretty simple

i'm guessing exporting the sbnk also works then?
edit: i don't really think there's another solution, and you'll have to select the right swar again

[wraith gust]

You have to either do this

if you want to get the song working in NSMB, you have to link the second wave archive to the SWAV the song uses and set the first wave archive to "FFFF - Blank"
or you can also reconfigure the SBNK so that the instruments are linked to the first wave archive instead of the second one

Also, the same thing happens with the Big Boo's Haunt SSEQ

[wide furnace]

interesting

[fossil token]

Yeah, will be kinda sad if it’s only used for Iggys tower and the Iggy fight

[fossil token]

I mean, there is stuff I haven’t shown which is like the 3d world tank tile set

Those stripes are just one pattern

Also it was the least effort for a good looking tile set

im using jpg's tank wheels now

https://models.spriters-resource.com/pc_computer/valkyriachronicles4/asset/331516/

I am gonna leave this here though

im thinking of making the wheels actors

I am gonna try use monty's wheels first though

[amber zephyr]

Goodluck illy

[wide furnace]

interesting

[fossil token]

there isnt an animation for these tires that I could find

I think its handled by the code rotating the bone

since I cant use montys Im smashing together the convayer belt and the wheel from his texture

this wheel is an actor btw, since I will probs need it elsewhere

[wide furnace]

it works. though might be better to make the texture loop properly

[fossil token]

its not the textures, the actors scale is a tiny bit off so they are overlaping

[wide furnace]

oh ok

[fossil token]

fuck I made the inside of the wheel on all of them spin the wrong way

future me can fix that

[onyx lantern]

I wonder if the ground will damage you because of how fast the floor is scrolling, could be neat imo.

[fossil token]

It’s not gonna go that fast

I was just messing around

[wide furnace]

you probably thought about it already but it would be nice to make the background scroll

[wide furnace]

okay so i saw this again in the last video. it feels like the first tank has its wheels fine, but that the individual wheel tiles of the second tank are desynced from each other

[fossil token]

They aren’t, all frames line up perfectly, it’s the scale of the actor, and anyways ima redo them anyways cause I messed up the end of the whee tile

[fossil token]

I will

It’s on the todo list

[lapis lark]

the kamek fight reminds me of the builder powerup from mario maker

[rich palm]

Rewatching the videos and seeing that you reverted the Boos back to the NDS sprite is based

[tall umbra]

Someones gotta tell bro

[rich palm]

At this point, she's gonna have to make an intro disclaimer

[wraith gust]

That's not gonna help at all, you can literally tell them in their faces that the hack is not released and they will still ask for a download link, that's just how people is

That's why every time I receive a comment asking for a download link, I simply ignore it

[rich palm]

Fair; tbh I'm just surprised people are that dense

[wraith gust]

Some people really really want to play the hack, I don't blame them, but c'mon dude, patience is a virtue

[fossil token]

Another reason I should have a team

That way I could just focus on the coding

[wide furnace]

i could have suggested if you wanted me to make some levels, but i can't even make progress on TRQ 😭

[wraith gust]

If I wasn't too busy with my own hack I would probably make one or two levels

[wide furnace]

[fossil token]

Toxic kid lmao

[lapis lark]

while it would be nice if the hammer could pass through semi-solids from the underside, there are definitely more polite ways of saying this

[wide furnace]

if you're talking about the "the hammer suit is kinda trash", to me it comes off more as a somewhat poor english word usage rather than toxicity. it's the only word for which that applies though, but considering the "kinda" before, and the suggestion given right after, i don't think it's meant to be toxic. someone who would want to be toxic would end their comment at "trash" and not give the suggestion

i know that i once said "this is kinda shitty" when i wanted to say that it looked bad (in a comment of my own level), without knowing what the word actually meant. so that might be similar, but idk

[lapis lark]

fair point

[wraith gust]

I honestly agree, I don't see any toxicity in this comment, but it could definitely have been worded better, lol

[fossil token]

Depends on semantics

[wide furnace]

alright gotta check the definition for semantics
edit: done

[mental slate]

https://tenor.com/view/cats-fbi-police-police-cat-fbi-cat-gif-1256429038097351888

[wide furnace]

i guess so. not sure how exactly tho

[warped briar]

Hammers get stopped by semisolids?

What?

[fossil token]

when they hit ground they get destroyed

they dont go through solids

like any other projectile based powerup in this hack

[warped briar]

That's very weird

Why is that?

[analog oracle]

i don’t see why it’s weird

[warped briar]

Because hammers never break on terrain in any of the 2D games

[wide furnace]

no i think the issue is that they break when touching the semisolids from below

[warped briar]

That's one of their most noteworthy attributes

I'm just confused on why they break on contact with terrain at all

[wide furnace]

which doesn't make much sense if the semisolid doesn't interact with anything else going from below

as seen here. it doesn't make much sense and feels like a bug
https://youtu.be/Q5Dli2kBztI?t=2m48s

(the video has the timestamp)

[wraith gust]

Well, realistically speaking it makes more sense than the hammers going through everything if you think about it

[wide furnace]

i feel like it's due to the powerup detecting ground and breaking after doing so. but here it doesn't land on the ground, nor does it hit it like a ceiling or a wall

[warped briar]

They have worked like that in every Mario game

[wraith gust]

We already had this conversation before with the semisolids man

Not everything needs to follow Nintendo's standarts

[wide furnace]

there's also a chance that this was what the commenter was talking about. because (surprisingly enough) there aren't any other times in the video where hammers hit a semisolid, except for that one palm tree above the piranha plant in the cassette room

[wide furnace]

yes, for example i always overdecorate everything

[warped briar]

This is going out of your way to make it inconsistent with other games

I'm curious to hear the thought process behind that decision

Because I personally cannot really see why this is anything but a downgrade

[wide furnace]

it also acts as a shell tho, and there are a lot of projectile powerups in the hack already. making it able to kill any enemy, AND be able to hide in the shell, AND making it so the projectiles phase through blocks, just make it an overpowered powerup

also it can be used to hit/break brick blocks, and hit question blocks

[warped briar]

Ah, that makes more sense

It would be more consistent for them to break on ground if they also interact with blocks

[wide furnace]

yes that too

[warped briar]

Not sure what the point of making them hit blocks is tho

But there can be an appeal to it, ig

[fossil token]

They can also collect coins and stuff, it’s for consistency with the super ball and also so I can do more with it in bonus rooms

[warped briar]

Well, I'd say that having one collide with terrain while the other goes through it would make both stand out more

[wide furnace]

sorry to bump this, but is this [timestamp] a bug?

[fossil token]

Yeah that’s a bug

[fossil token]

I have already made multiple levels around it

That’s why I don’t like whenever this debate comes up

Unlike most other hacks that have a crap tone of code I actually have levels done

[warped briar]

Does the go through walls things affect levels that much?

[fossil token]

The whole part where it breaks blocks, and collects coins

And being able to kill enemies through walls will break stuff

[warped briar]

How is the breaking blocks utilised?

[wide furnace]

okay then

[ocean pivot]

you could make this message way shorter... but i agree

[wide furnace]

i'm bad at summarizing and when i have a specific idea i tend to overexplain sometimes

[mental slate]

People are used to seeing hammers go through blocks in mario because that’s what hammers do in mario

Illy hammers don’t go through blocks because she does whatever she wants

Thats why there are celeste blocks and a dive mechanic !

[wide furnace]

that too

[mental slate]

If i added a hammer suit to mario i would make them go through blocks

But i would also make them trigger event blocks so they can activate kaizo setups

But i would also not add hammers to mario because it’s too much code

:D

[fossil token]

This

[civic cloud]

Tbf hammers do interact with ground and blocks in Odyssey

And in Super Mario Advance 4 there's a special stone block that gets broken by hammers

[fossil token]

the metal cap theme, ballon mario theme and stuff like that in the 64ds sound bank really makes me want to make those lol

and I wanna use the mega shroom theme from 64ds as the mega shroom music

I hate when smth sounds diffrent in game to how it does in nitro studio 2

I want to replace the item actor with one that uses 3d models soon

for two reasons

1. I want full control over the item actor and what comes out of tripple blocks and normal blocks

2. Since it will look better when the game is scaled up

and how things look when the game is scaled up is smth I care about quite a bit

[fossil token]

gonna leave this here incase I delete them, its just nsmbwii model rips

also gonna dump a copy of these here

this is me procrastinating and not wanting to study lol

3D powerups is cursed but looks good

[wraith gust]

Looks nice, but I wonder if this would cause performance issues, like, would the game crash if there's a bunch of powerups on a single screen?

[fossil token]

They are pretty low poly

And also, when would there be a shit tone of powerups on screen?

[fossil token]

There are a couple reasons why I’m doing it

1. Multiplayer, so I can have two down at once if it detects two players
2. So I can remove the bubble powerups that always have to be loaded that eat a shit town of vram
3. Since I have the room for all of these extra polygons to be drawn
4. Since nsmbwii models are pretty compressed

If I do have performance issues I can always try to reallocate resources when needed

And that problem is usauly tied to amount of actors rather than polygons, both can cause lag though

[wraith gust]

Probably if players use cheat codes that allow you to have infinite powerups, but my main concern was that the game would lag or crash if there's like 3 or 4 powerups on the screen at the same time, the game can be a little problematic sometimes when it comes to 3D models after all

[fossil token]

if that happens to be the case, I can always just trim the parts of the model that are not visible

also, the cheat code will end up spawning the og items

since this is another system that I plan on overwriting the ? block spawns with, the old one will still exsist for the mega mushroom so I dont have to rewrite that lmao

[wraith gust]

I thought you weren't using the mega mushroom in your hack, I don't recall you using it in any of the videos I've seen

Or at least, not that I remember

[fossil token]

Its more of a

I dont use it often

mega shroom houses still exist and you can still get them from mao blocks and hammer bros

those will need to be edited now that I think of it, same with roulette blocks

if im to lazy to model the hammer flower ill just stick a png of the hammer head onto a fire flower stem

I just remembered that I gotta add bah points

[fossil token]

I cant be fucked making the claw more detalied

[fossil token]

okay, I think this is decent

might make the stem a bit shorter

[polar fjord]

holy peak

[fossil token]

lmao, it blends in with the bg so much

wait looks like I fucked it up lmao

neary got it

just has one messed up face

[fossil token]

hammer flower done

[amber zephyr]

The poweruos are so cute

Love it!

[fossil token]

so the parashell wingflap anim doesnt work cause of yeah

I do have another idea though

[fossil token]

my laptop is overheating so much lol

I really should be doing this on my pc

but

bet comfy

[lapis lark]

laptop struggling to handle peak

[rich palm]

Is that a Poison Mushroom I spy?

[polar fjord]

no

[analog oracle]

could the animation perchance be sped up a little

it feels a bit motionless for how fast the mushrooms themselves r moving

looks cool doe

[fossil token]

Yes

[somber gorge]

Is this a really cool hack i spy?

[fossil token]

yeah, I dont have a reference for its speeds, all I looked at was mario maker 2 but that just uses a png lol

[fossil token]

idk

[fossil token]

Well, its actaully called a "OneDown" mushroom in this case, mainly cause thats just what I named the texture, it still functions like a poison mushroom though

[fossil token]

red stars look like ass

galaxy models are weird

might remodel from scratch

[fossil token]

now next problem to deal with

[wide furnace]

do like the mega mushroom, which uses a 2d plane. though you probably planned that already

[fossil token]

progress

[fossil token]

do you know what the model for that is by any chance?

sorry for ping, will be helpful to know sooner cause I couldnt find it

I ended up just adding some extra models but size isnt perfect

[wraith gust]

obj_big_kinoko.nsbmd in the enemy folder

[wide furnace]

it's okay, you asked a question you needed help for

[fossil token]

isnt that just the mega shroom model?

[wraith gust]

Isn't that what you were asking for? I'm 100% sure there's not a 2D mega mushroom in the ROM File Browser

[fossil token]

the 3d hit block model that hides the mega shroom when it spawns

[analog oracle]

i think it was block something .nsbmd

ima look for it rq

[wraith gust]

Oh, it's I_hatena_block.nsbmd

[analog oracle]

yeah that

[fossil token]

ahh

thank you

[wraith gust]

[fossil token]

okay the item from block replacment system is set up

void replaceSpawn(Item* self) {
    SpawnItem spawnItem = static_cast<SpawnItem>(self->settings & 0x1F);
    if (spawnItem == SpawnItem::MushroomFlower) {
        Actor::spawnActor(410, 0x104, &self->position, 0, 0, 0);
        self->Base::destroy();
    }
    else if (spawnItem == SpawnItem::Star) {
        Actor::spawnActor(410, 0x8, &self->position, 0, 0, 0);
        self->Base::destroy();

    }
    else if (spawnItem == SpawnItem::Coin) {

    }
}```

this is what im doing, so when its smth I want to keep I just ignore it

[wide furnace]

interesting

[fossil token]

I could make them spawn anything :3

Hmm

Should make a video called “Larry in a box”

And do a massive click bait thumbnail with a massive red arrow pointing to a block with a pic of Larry’s face in a red circle at the end of the arrow

[wide furnace]

make a "can mario collect 999 superball flowers/flying blue shells in nsmbds" video

-# though the hardware probably can't handle it idk

[fossil token]

Got all of the ? Blocks working

I can also add non progressive powerups if I want

Like I had before with the super ball and hammer

Those are now progressive and both can be spawned from blocks in the same level which is so nice

[fossil token]

big spring in a block

this is cursed but it will be fun for bonus rooms

damn, I forgot to add support for blocks pooping items instead of spawning them

this is so much work lol

[wraith gust]

That vine looks a little cursed, lmao

[fossil token]

yeah, the graphic was the smm one but it just got fucked up lol

[fossil token]

so, I want to make the powerups have different sounds for when you collect them/change to that state, any ideas for superball flower, hammer flower and parashell?

I was thinking the mario land powerup sfx for superball but it doesnt sound to great

might try the smw one for parashell

I cant be stuffed

sound effects are hard without making them take so much ram

[delicate bramble]

you can make the mario advance like sound

with the voice of the player

but i think is a bit stressfull for the ram because you will need sfx for mario luigi yoshi ecc,

[wide furnace]

yea it would probably be even worse

[wide furnace]

maybe you could make some of them have the same sound variation as the penguin suit from nsmbwii/u

[fossil token]

[polar fjord]

so peak

🥹

[lapis lark]

deploy the hype points 🚁

[rich palm]

I'm a little scared of the Poison Mushroom ngl

Bc mark my words, Illy's gonna do some evil shit with it

[fossil token]

I wanna use them kinda like an enemy in a level

[fossil token]

Replaying smb3 for inspiration

Might also replay Mario world and 3d land

[fossil token]

just finisheed smb3

and I got some new ideas

[fossil token]

damn, this is pretty solid

[fossil token]

this shit is cursed

I need to add a version that doesnt render a block for the 3d ones

and that random hit block texture is just a random leftover from when I was obssesed with newer four years ago

[fossil token]

thats the block graphics for when they are hit fixed

not the spawn cover, them leaving behinde diffrent blocks

I think the cou,d just use a whole rewrite tbh

1. dont wanna deal with oam rendering

2. dont wanna have to add support for the other items to it

[digital steeple]

peak content 🔥🔥🔥

[lapis lark]

are the poison mushrooms gonna follow the player?

[polar fjord]

they don’t do that

that’s the rotten mushroom

🤓

[fossil token]

damn, I wake up and check my channel and 2.5k views

[olive owl]

Illy when the cool project is cool

🤯

[polar fjord]

https://tenor.com/view/dax-dax-joker-joker-rap-crazy-gif-4380617505018687337

[fossil token]

The thing that sucks though is I can’t really upload stuff that is slop anymore or else my channel dies for a while

And I guess the click bait thumbnail helped a lot

[civic cloud]

Poison mushroom does partially follow the player

But it's more like Deep Cheep

It moves forward but leans in the player's direction

[polar fjord]

not in the 2d games

[fossil token]

I do want to add the rotten mushroom as well

And 3up moons

[fossil token]

I was thinking

I kinda wanna do 3d loop as and goombas as well, only thing is what koopa model do I use?

I could use the early koopa model

It I was also thinking maybe I could use the climbing koopa model

And right it to the early koopa armature

Idk though

I just wanna have big koopa and goombas that are consistent with the small ones

Oh yeah

And for the wings I can just use the nsmbwii wings and attach them to the back bone like nsmbwii does

[civic cloud]

That's because the space to do this doesn't exist, it's just like how Goombas only charge in your general direction in 3D without properly targeting you

[civic cloud]

Yeah I thought you could use climbing Koopa's model, good idea for the wings too, I guess the only enemy that doesn't have an in-game model you can use is Boo

[fossil token]

There is also sm64 ds

[fossil token]

okay, so it looks like I can overwrite regions of code

so I can just overwrite all the part of overlay whatever thats dedicated to the and the spike block dupes

that way I dont have to worry about the rewrites eating to much ram

[fossil token]

the game does not like when part of overlay 54 is overwritten

[fossil token]

okay the logic for this actor is fun, im tryna solve it

since im making every nybble of its settings a bool to say what actors are in the box

so I need to write a for loop that checks the bool[8] array thats values are set to true if that actor is set

and for loops are one of my week points :p

shouldnt be hard though

[fossil token]

concept

ended up making them a bit bigger

just so I can fit the models in them

[fossil token]

making a good locking block is hard

if anybody wants to have a go at it feel free to

its a 32x32 but the block is like 24x24

anyways

I think this looks good enough

[lapis lark]

https://tenor.com/view/ma-otvorilo-laptop-explode-fire-burn-gif-27028664

[fossil token]

Oh yeah

I’m using some space in arm9 where minigame crap is to fit more code into it

That’s why I can get away with this as a actor

[warped briar]

Why do they use sprites for Koopas if they have a model in the game anyway 😭

[olive owl]

Likely a combination of (1) given how common they are, they didn't want to worry about performance issues if they decided to put a bunch in the same area and (2) since co-op was originally what the multiplayer mode was gonna be, they likely ran into slowdown with all of it being 3D models

[civic cloud]

Yeah that's pretty much the reason

Although with that in mind I'm surprised Cheep Cheeps appeared in models but not Boos despite Cheep Cheeps being more common

It's probably cuz of the big Cheep Cheeps also appearing

[fossil token]

Don’t forget that ballon boos have a setting to act like a normal big boo which uses a lot of the same code that boos do

[civic cloud]

Interesting, how does that work? Do they just not deflate?

It's really interesting

I just realized now that Balloon Boos move faster than Boos

[analog oracle]

they most def didn’t have bad intentions but there’s some uneccesary ‘passive aggression’ here 😭💔

[mental slate]

Half the enemies in this game look awful on an emulator even though they look fine ingame

It’s sadly trvth

Fortunately the average new++ player will be on PC or android

[fossil token]

In new++ or nsmbds?

[mental slate]

nsmbds

Goombas look like cardboard cutouts while dry bones are an aliased mess, mini mario’s face disappears when he jumps…

[fossil token]

I usauly play on 3ds so models look a lot better

Goombas do look bad though

Mini Mario looks fine on 3ds

[fossil token]

these blocks are a nightmare

I might just not use them

making them spawn the right thing is hell
