It's hard to sort the crap from the non-crap, even if the crap is usually marked with "OFF". So a lot of the threads are being simply trashed. This doesn't matter for 90% of them. However, some are going to be bumps of minor topics; if your thread is trashed and you feel it should be reasonably revived, please PM a local mod of The Pit of Despair, full moderator, or an administrator for a review on if the thread shall come back to life.

1. Read the FAQ, and obey it. The rules for the rest of the site still apply here. 2. Do your homework before making a post. Do not post questions without reading the Lunar Magic help file first. It was, after all, made for a reason. Check sites like SMW Central for more help. Experiment with what you're doing, and find what to do on your own. Coming in here and asking questions that you by all accounts should know the answer to or at the very least know how to find the answer to is pure stupidity. We are not paid to do your work for you. This is a community, not a 24-hour technical service line. It's perfectly fine to ask a few questions about a few things that really confuse you and other sources don't answer well enough, but if you come in here asking the most basic of questions, expect to be ignored. 3. If your hack has horrendous palettework, terrible or glitchy level design, bad graphics, unfinished levels, or simply lacks anything even approaching quality, don't bother posting it. This forum is not a dumping ground for your horrible work, and it should not be treated as such. If you post crap, if will be tossed in the trash where it belongs. 4. Do not post the same thing over and over. Nothing irks the people who are actually smart around here more than 9 posts in a row like "wow nice level desigN  " ... especially when they're given to things that obviously do not have good level design. Use your head.
5. We will not make your hack for you. We do not want to do everything for you. There are some common ASM hacks floating around you can use, and there are tutorials on how to use them. This does not mean that we will bow to your every request and make ASM hacks at your demand. There is a thread to request that sort of thing; don't devote new threads to it. ExGFX begging threads, similarly, are forbidden. If you lack the graphical skill you need and want to partner with someone for your hack, talk to them about it in private; again, making a generic demand to everyone to do stuff for you is stupid, and by association people will think you are stupid if you do this. 6. If you have a problem with something, be specific. We can't help you if you walk in and say there's a problem with the level; that says nothing useful. Include details, and what you did just before the problem started happening. 7. For the love of god, exercise some common sense. If I didn't mention something, but it's stupid, you probably shouldn't do it. 8. Do not announce your hacks without having material (i.e. screenshots) you can show. Even the most colourful description of what you are planning to do does NOT count. 9. NO IMAGE MACROS. EVER. They suck and aren't funny. ANY use of an image macro will get your post replaced with "Hello! I am a fool who doesn't read forum announcements and doesn't read countless warnings and who would rather post retarded image macros than contribute to the thread." There are no exceptions to this rule. 10. Do NOT post empty polls. Those will get trashed immediately no matter what the content is. Any thread, post, whatever, disregarding these rules will be trashed because no one wants to see it. Hopefully this forum can improve; it makes the rest of the board just look bad, and many people have simply given up and left because of the crap going on here. You know FuSoYa, creator of Lunar Magic? He left long ago, presumably because of stuff like this. Don't give the rest of us just cause for genocide. With that said, here are some particularly useful links you may want to keep track of. SMW Central - http://www.smwcentral.net/ SMW hacking resource site. Pretty much the first place you should look for things, assuming you already have basic hacking tools, LM, and an emulator. FuSoYa's Niche - http://fusoya.panicus.org Home of Lunar Magic, the definitive SMW editor, as well as several other useful tools. Zophar's Domain - http://www.zophar.net Lots of emulators, ROM hacking tools, and technical documents. Old memory locations thread - Page 1, Page 2, Page 3 Archive of most known RAM and ROM addresses, from the old board. Lunar Magic Code Documentary - http://board.acmlm.org/archive/thread.php?id=286 Codes to unlock Lunar Magic's hidden features and easter eggs. Super Mario World Data Repository - http://bmf.rustedmagick.com/smwdr/smwdr.htm Custom ASM hacks, a few ExGFX files, and links to tools and documents. Block Inserter - http://hypernova.amarok-shadow.com/MyStuff/acmlm/blktool.zip A program for inserting custom made game tiles for Super Mario World. Created by Jonwil. Blocktool tutorial - http://board.acmlm.org/archive/thread.php?id=18515 A tutorial to using the infamous Blocktool by jonwil. (Tutorial by TapTap) MikeyK (DMiner)'s sprite documentation - http://www.freewebs.com/cpubasic13/smw_sprite.doc A host of useful sprite data. Glyph Phoenix' ASM tutorial - http://board.acmlm.org/archive/thread.php?id=15489 A simple guide to the basics of ASM. And of course, every sticky thread in this forum.
