My idea was for a darker type of Mario game. The plot, though simple, is that Kamek stumbles upon a spell to seperate the soul from the body, and does so on Mario and Luigi.
The first few levels would appear normal, but Mario can't do anything because he's now a ghost, wandering around. For this I would need to find or make a transparent Mario sprite. He finds his way through this normal world to the underworld. Enemies he normally can not kill, like Boos or skeleton type eneimes are the ones he can kill, and he wouldn't be able to kill goombas and the like. Instead of finding the end of the level, I would like to emphasize the use of keys and using keyholes to find his way around this netherworld. I would also like to use music and backgrounds from Mario's Time Machine and Mario is Missing. I don't know if anyone ever attempted ripping music from either and using them. Mario is Missing has some real world type graphics, and I like the idea of going through a lot of normal looking cities for a change, except its Ghost Mario so any normal people seen wouldn't see what is going on. The Fire Flower could easily be changed to a ghostly energy orb type of an attack. The feather would be changed into a set of wings and a halo, giving Mario an angel like appearence. I hope this was desctiptive enough. I haven't started anything yet, and I was wondering what some of you thought of this idea for a hack. This would be my first hack, and I have little programming experience, so I also post this wanting to know if this is someone a newbie with Lunar Magic can do. |

It sounds like an interesting concept, although I don't know how you would pull it off. We aren't THAT advanced at hacking SMW yet. | |||

Which parts wouldn't work?
Also, since I'm posting, Donkey Kong Country 2 had quite a few haunted areas that would work. But would it clash? If the music part won't work, its no big deal. I mean I've played hacks that used SMB3 tracks, and ripped backgrounds, so I though it would be possible with those 2 games as well |

Originally posted by Elbow Tornado The music parts wouldn't work at all. Keys and keyholes would be a cumbersome task at this point. The enemy part will be easy enough, though. And by that, I mean you need to have a little experience before diving into it. Don't bite off more than you can chew at first. Remember that. |

Ok, I'll bite...
Could be interesting, continue on...
Not being able to do anything sounds boring....but continue anyways... This can be done through Mario World Reconfigurator.. Had something like this in my last hack. Its an ok idea..
Backgrounds = Yes Music = No. Can't be done...yet..
k...
Wing can be done, but would have to be crammed in. The halo you technically can't do, except with a shit load of ASM... It would be kinda cool....it all of it was possible. |

Hey, you actually followed my link on GameFAQs
As for your idea... I think it has promise. Would M&L actually be able to find their bodys once they beat the game? Or maybe, for a really crazy but totally plothole-punching idea, their souls could face off against their cursed bodies at one point :O then once they beat their own bodies, they can use them again. The crazy thing is, a program that lets you replace the Mario GFX was recently made. Maybe you could utilize that. |

That all sounds very good, but you will ned to be very adept at ASM and all parts of the SNES hardware to do that.
@andres: He can use those resources if he wants to, you can't have decide whether someone else can use them or not |
