Backporting project for "Mario vs Luigi Fangame", based on game version 1.4.1d I will try to go to as low of a unity version as possible. My goal is to make it work on Unity 2017.1 or even Unity 5.6

I could try to go for 2018.4 at this point.
But I wanna get rid of shadergraph dependency as early as possible.
my current challenge is to find a different way to implement switching between regular mario, and fire mario/luigi skins in this multiplayer game.

Is there a reason you went with 1.4 instead of something newer like 1.6 or even 1.7?

i think later versions use URP
so theyre gonna need more work

1.4 has simpler code. So less things can break.
It is also the first version to include all nsmb powerups + luigi.

FireFlower, Starman and MegaMushroom now WORK without shadergraph
I even added some quality of life changes. and removed that extremely fast Starman running speed
2018.4 here we go........ This will probably not be as straightforward as going from 2020.1 to 2019.4
I wonder how I will deal with the unity's new inputSystem (iirc 2018 was the first to have it)
every major downgrade now has a separate BRANCH on github

I havent tried editing tilemap on this project
Are you trying to make custom maps for it?
Also.
2018.4 is proving to be way harder.
I wasn't able to make the unity input system to work at all.

2018.4 is broke every single image/button/slider. In the game
I am re-adding them all manually
They are all read as "invalid script"
So i have to remove the broken object and add it again to fix

Since 2018 does NOT have URP
fixing the cameras is a PAIN, it does not have OVERLAY option that URP has
