I have a couple of questions pertaining to SMB

1: Is it possible to turn certain levels into unique ones {1-4 and 6-4 being different from each other for example}..or is it hardcoded into the engine.

2: Is it possible to have more than 8 worlds {Like SMB2J} or would that require ASM.

your post is worded kind of wierd. yes those are both possible, something requiring assembly hacking does not make it impossible. what exactly are you trying to ask here.

anyway, #2 definitely needs assembly hacking / expansion of the ROM / implementation of a mapper and #1 is probably just changing a pointer in ROM (to make it point to another level) I'm not so sure, but there's practicaly zero free space to work with. last time I checked the disassembly I only saw a couple bytes here and there.

What I was trying to ask in the first question is this. In SMB there are levels that are reused but with different enemy data {Common Examples are the X-4 Levels}. What I was asking is..Can Those Levels Be different from one another in a way to where they are both different. Thanks for my answers anyway.
