I wasn't able to get the patch even by right-clicking on the link and choosing 'Save Link As...' <_< I had to go to your site by taking off the filename part of the link, then manually typing it in after the FreeWebs page loaded. It's working now though, so all is good there.

I noticed if you just stay still on the map screen, the numbers on what I'm assuming to be the odometer keep increasing >_>  For the levels, I'll comment on each of them individually.

Level 1 : The green and orange blocks that have a shadow also have a little bit of white down in the lower right corner of them. You could probably fix that by editing that tile and filling in the empty space with black. The big green bushes also look sort of odd, mainly because of the shaded left and right sides. I don't know if it would look it make any better, but you could make the edge of the bush go all the way down to the ground, or not have the shaded edges on any bush that overlaps another.

Level 2 : Right from the start, I noticed the same thing as stated above with the tall bushes. That's about the only thing I can see in this level.

Level 3 : The problem with the blue and green blocks with the shadow is the same as the green and orange ones in the first level. The tall hills once are here once again. Midway through the level, there's a Fire Brother in a pool of water, but when I go on to the screen, it appears down inside the blocks that make up the outline of the pool. It's not a big problem, but something that, if there's a way to correct it, should be fixed. The Mouser replacement to the big Hammer Brothers is quite neat, although I wonder if it would be possible to make it throw bombs, or maybe even Bob-Ombs instead of hammers. Right near the end of the level, there's the blue and dark blue boxes that also have the same problem as the rest of the blocks with the shadow.

Level 4 : There didn't seem to be anything wrong in this level.

Level 5 : I don't know whether it was your intention or not, but it's possible to skip over a majority of this level by hopping up off the top of the screen at the beginning, and jumping when needed as you go along the top.

Level 6 : If you walk and jump to the right at the start, you'll pass a Koopa, and after the platform it's on, there's one of those blue line-end things. The moving platform falls right off the line. Maybe it's supposed to do that, but I'm not completely sure. Also, before you come to the final platform of the level, there's another platform guiding line with another one of those blue things near the middle of the left hand side of it. That's not the problem though. If you jump down, there'll be another blue thing there that seemingly serves no purpose.

Small Castle : After you go through the double doors, and if you're small, you can run through the small passage that leads to the treasure chest. Problem is, the platform that's rising and falling will rise right up through Mario.

Large Castle / Flying Ship : The palette inside the castle is... different, to say the least. The purple and green, when combined with the rest of the colors looks pretty ugly. As for the flying ship, there's nothing wrong on it that I could see. When you get to the point of reading Peach's letter though, the P-Wing alternates between the wing and 4 x's.

Desert Level 1 : The overall incompleteness of this level makes me almost completely sure that it isn't complete yet, so I'll refrain from saying anything about it.

Other than all those points, this demo is quite good.  I never managed to collect 100 coins, so I didn't get to try out the Kuribo's Shoe, but I assume it's pretty much the same as it was in the original game.

In all, you've done a nice job on this demo in my opinon. Keep it up :)<hr></blockquote>

For your question, it could be possible if I implemented a feature like in SMB2j. I'll have new screens in a few days. I've been busy with a few things, but I'll have lots of free time to work on this hack during March Break .

Why don't you replace the Parabettles with the Subcon characters you rescue in SMB2? How about replace parabeetles with beezo? Hey, that sounds even better, let's see some pics.

Googie Posts: 294/624	Originally posted by Ringodoggie First Mouser, now Birdo? This is awsome & funny at the same time, I like the progress kiddo.
Rockman Posts: 125/250	Did anyone ever use Birdo in SMB3 before? Because its a really cool idea.
Kasper Posts: 30/108	I like those pics Ringodoggie, Birdo looks hot in SMB3. I can't wait for a demo.
Rockman Posts: 121/250	I have some suggestions: - Make the birdo shoot straightfoward fireballs. - The spikes look too plain. Perhaps do some shading on them. - The status bar looks too plain also. Do some shading on that too. Other than that it all looks good.
Ringodoggie Posts: 173/281	Birdo now shoots projectiles that move straight forward. Hammer bros. now throw lots of fireballs at you (it's easier than it looks )
Rockman Posts: 118/250	Pretty interesting. I hope to see more pics soon!
Ringodoggie Posts: 172/281	Originally posted by HyperHacker Hmm... I should have noticed this before, but the tops of those hills are glitched. That's fixed now . Edit: You no longer lose kuribo's shoe when you enter/exit a level! I've also sacrificed the anchor to make kuribo's shoe for your inventory.

DahrkDaiz Posts: 521/885	Ah well that was found while searching for the Hammer Bros. I assumed that it would apply to the Fire Bros. and Boomerang Bros. both too since they have similiar sprite positioning nad what not, but I'm glad you found what you were looking for.
Ringodoggie Posts: 171/281	Originally posted by DahrkDaiz Originally posted by Ringodoggie I modified the sprite TSA. Anyways, here's another screen: Fire Bros. replaced with Birdo! But I'll need people's help. How do I make birdo not stand partly through the ground like in the picture? Sorry I forgot to reply to your PM: This doesn't have to do with sprite TSA, it has to do with sprite positioning on screen. I've been looking through the ASM routines for about 30 minutes now without finding anything, but I'll continue searching until I can find a way to fix this. EDIT: Ah, finally found it. 0x85DB = 00 That will move your fire bros. up by 8 pixels, but this very well may affect other enemies as well, I haven't tested it myself much. That byte is for bommerang bros, not fire bros. While searching for the byte myself, I got the correct one: 0x88F6
Rockman Posts: 115/250	Maybe he means the download link? shrugs
HyperLamer Posts: 3412/8210	Looks fine to me.
