We are not going to have set levels like that. How many times do I have to clarify that now.

Might have specific worlds and themes available, but my plan was to let the level creation be flexible. So I want to avoid having levels too preplanned out.

テスト版
(Test version. Containing the two levels completed so far. Enjoy)

Also, guys, if your levels or anything else project-related are done, put them into the uploader, the ToS section in particular. That's what it's for.

Heh, mine and Acmlm's level. I probably get more levels done during this holiday.

Wow I almost forgot how absurd SMAS music sounds with some levels.

It will be replaced by custom songs in time.

Either way, proposal of a "generic forum idiot" goomba design:

Does anyone want this for this hack? It's original, I just made it, and if nobody wants it, I'll just give it to someone else, but I don't have any plans for actually releasing it to the public. I think it would go great with the first level [called Acmlm (???) or whatever] if the palette was changed to FG6

Edit: I made it from this photo: http://members.aol.com/ShortStd9/greenfieldmtn.jpg

That BG looks very nice. I think it would fit the intended tongue-in-cheek theme of the hack more if you did something like adding those typical || eyes to bushes/hills, but otherwise, I'm all for putting it in.

edit: Since you are editing your post as well anyway, is there any chance you could map16ify the Cave Story background I linked a few posts above?

I think all traces of Mario and such should be removed. Original characters, levels, graphics and music ftw.

As for Goombas, I suggest some generic moron appearence.

Well, while I generally agree that would be a good thing, I doubt, at this point, that we have sufficient resources (as in # of good graphics designers familiar enough with the SMW engine) to pull it off to that extent.

Also,

In order not to overwrite the status bar palette or the main FG palettes, I am going to have to use palettes 4 and 7 (it uses 2 palettes)

I have a suggestion for what to do to make anything using palettes 4 and 7 still look right in any level (such as goal points, midpoints, on/off switches, etc.), but it will make custom palettes for all BGs required, including default SMW BGs, because they will have to be copied into palettes 4 and 7

steps:
1. replace the shared palette with this: sharedpalettes.pal
2. for map16 pages 0, 1, 10, and 11, export them, convert them here at this link, and re-insert them.

Then for a normal SMW BG, copy palette 0 from another ROM into palette 4 and palette 1 into palette 7.

I can do this for you if you want, and then I can also insert the BG.

... and yes, I could map16ify the Cave Story BG, but not now because I have to go somewhere and won't be able to get to the computer in a few hours.

As I said earlier, I think that Goomba looks better without the drool. It looks like blood. XD

Also the Cave Story graphics works surprisingly well with SMW.

Those graphics are custom. Only the second outside (i.e. third) part of Outer Wall uses a (complete, in exchange) Cave Story rip.

Well, those graphics were similar enough to fool me at least. xD Hadn't played Cave story in awhile.

OK, I was able to rip the cave story BG, but I haven't inserted it into the hack's ROM yet, but I will as soon as I can.

Don't you think that everyone could download your hack and work on it himself/submit it and say, it is his work? Maybe you could pass the rom via PM's or MSN/AIM etc... It's not my hack, just a suggestion. BTW, smwedit, the BG looks good. Hope to see more progress soon.

I believe we have good enough relationships with any considerable location for SMW hacking on the internets to effect anybody who would do such a thing to be banished.
They'd win nothing. Also, the amount of secrecy required to counter such a thing happening would be contraproductive. (though I am considering to limit access to the ToS section of the uploader to previously approved users)

Besides as I planned, this hack will have close to total transparency... although I will make sure to keep the crap out.

We really should appoint some kind of "bureaucrat leaderboard" for the keeping the crap out part of it...

Yes, and it should contain several people to decrease potential bias. I figure the 3-5 most involved people would suffice.

Some official advertising could be done as well. I see what I can do in about a week when I get craploads of free time. We need more contributors~

Official advertising? Like what are you thinking of?

Remember, this hack still should be mainly representative of board2.
