I can't take holding this in much longer. Though I won't be releasing any demos, I have to give you the guys the heads up on what's going with what was formerly known as SMB3DX:

This hack is now known as Luigi vs Mario. The premise of the hack is that Luigi and Mario are racing to save the princess. The catch? They're each taking seperate journies!






From the start you decide who you want to be. Mario and Luigi both have completely different sets of world maps and levels, so this will be a HUGE hack and plenty to play through once it's done.

Mario and Luigi each have seperate powers, also. Here's a small list of a few:









Mario Throws only 2 fireballsLuigi Can throw 5
Mario fireballs bounce lowLuigi's fireballs bounce high
Mario has a new and improved item box reserveLuigi can use "equippable" items
Mario has power up skipping. He can go from small straight to Raccoon, Fire or the likeLuigi must go through the normal Small->Big->Other routine
Each character retains their classic controls: Luigi jumps higher than Mario, but Mario has tighter control


Each character will have more advantages and disadvantages so gameplay for each will vary greatly.

The item reserve has been revamped from older hacks. This time, pressing select will have the item in your box be thrown into the air and you must grab the sprite, rather than the game simpl switch out your power-up automatically.



^Differences in jump heights^
Also notice, each character has a different set of sprites, really cool stuff.





^New item box in action^

With there being two different sets of levels for each character, the possibilities to this hack are endless. Am I crazy for taking this project to such great lengths? I sure am! But you guys get to reap the rewards of my hard work when you get two hacks in one.

well you'll have to wait! I'm only completed worlds 1 through 4 on Luigi's side. For those that remember the level contest I had a while back, I will soon whip that out and get the voting started because now's the time I'll need level creators with my level work load doubling like this.

Wow, this is going to be an awesome game. I like the fact that Mario and Luigi have their own quest and they have more unique abilites than the jump.

If you ever want some help with the graphics (not implying that yours are bad, I just love graphics hacking), just let me know. I'm particularly fond of designing title screens...

OMG!!! You deserve that title of 2005's Best ROM Hacker.

You really gotta let BMF do your title screen! His are always so unique and awezumness!!! (Remembers the good old SMW - Odyssey)

Just wondering... with your last demo of SM3DX, you had the "world select" map. Are you going to keep this? I personally don't like it that much, but that's just my oppinion.

I can't wait for this! Any clue on a release date at all? I know there's alot to do, but well... are you getting much time to work with this hack?

Yes, the world select stays. It'll keep the non-linearity gameplay I'm really pushing in this hack.

BMF: If you really wanna do the title screen, I'd be highly honored!

When you say you are doing two sets of worlds, do you mean two sets of four, or two sets of eight? Will they go through the same worlds with different levels or will you actually stick in sixteen fully different worlds? Will you make a custom Mario VS Luigi boss fight based off of the multiplayer minigame code perhaps? Then again, they are simply taking their own route, not trying to kill each other, right?

There will be 16 different distinct worlds, each with a different set of levels. So lets say there's 80 levels in SMB3, there will be a total of 160 levels in the entire hack when I'm done

I have to say, the addition of 80 more levels has to be the most impressive thing about this hack. That's really awesome news.

He never said "160 levels." He said "160 games."

Yeah, but he meant 160 levels. If he meant games, then that would mean 12,800 levels. Besides, he was using that as an example, basically saying this hack will have twice as many levels as normal.

Exactly Kario. I meant 160 levels. And to illustrate I mean business, you can See a bad quality movie right here It requires DivX (don't nit pick at my choice of codecs). You'll see only minor changes in the World 1 map and level 1-1 between the two, but that's because in a hurry. I promise, each level will be completely different, as with the map. I just wanted to illustrate that it's realy and working
