Of course this thread won't die...

SMA4 eCard Maker v0.01 :
http://www.mediafire.com/?zmmotkymzmy

It's not a Level Card Maker.
It's for now, a Power-Up Card Maker.
But there will be (i hope) a Level Card Maker made by myself.

I found bug:
(I click'ed "make a card" and then I pushd cancel)

Error log timestamp Wednesday 25.11.09 18:48:45

Just don't push Cancel when you click Make a Card.
But thanks anyway to make me know that bug.

sma4tool command is "sma4tool -power (card identifier) (string) (outfile)"
you can make multi item card by replace string with list of item

example.
"-power 123 11111 Test.bin" this card give you 5 mushroom when you scan it.
and switch card is same too.

1up card is can give up 999.

Okay, you got me there.
About the 1up card, i already know about getting 999ups, but it uses two bytes, i have a little problem about it (Hey, i'm a beginner ! I'm doing SMA4 eCard Maker as a warm up before the big thing, the Level Card Maker, which i will call it Solar Magic Advance.), however, about the Multi Effects Switch Card, i didn't know about that.
Guess i'll redo the GUI for the 0.04.

Nice work! I'm excited for the level editor/creator. I've been wanting to try to make one too, but with classes and work I don't really find time.

I might still try once things slow down, but it'll probably be only for my own experience than anything that's decent enough to release to the public.

And in regards to reuben, I've been intentionally avoiding it so as to try to keep myself motivated for SMA4, but today at work I had a great idea I might want to test reuben for....

Thanks for your work Kiiro.

I'm impressed with what you've done so far. I know this topic will stay alive thanks to you.

Notable update folks....

I received a video response from UpaLuppa. Like 14159, he made a few levels through hex edits. It's some pretty good stuff. He seems to have some chops for SMA4 hacking....


An edit of World 1-1. The unused SMA1/SMB2 pluckable turtle shell appears..



An edit of World 1-Fortress. Boom-Boom was repositioned, and the "wall enclosure" effect is shifted.



An edit of the World 1-H-Bro Battle.



His YouTube says he's into programming!!! Could Upa finally be the one? :-)



Also, Kiiro posted a video demonstrating Solar Magic Advance. Cool Stuff....



It's great to see some life in this topic again. :-)

Hello there, folks!
I'm a newcomer to the romhacking community with some experience in memory/hex editing and programming, and I would like to support the SMA4 fans around here as much, as I can.

Anyways, my reason of being here is, to help getting a little closer to a SMA4 level editor, as nobody has created such a program so far...

I'm sorry, for not having anything to show so far, but I have just started to make the offset documentation for SMA4 more complete, by finishing the object lists and adding stuff, like pointers for doors, pipes etc. to get a base, an editor can be started on, so I haven't begun with the actual programming yet.

I have released some videos of my first hacking experiments with the game on youtube, (copyRIGHThunter had them posted in his previous post), but I guess you all can agree, that hex editing can't be the right way to create proper level hacks, right ?

I'm learning Pascal programming with Delphi since two years now, so I'm not exactly what you can call an experienced programmer, but my love for this game, and the desire to finally start working on a "useful" programming work have made me want to give it a try on my own.

I just recently saw, that the sourcecode of the famous SMB3 Workshop has been released, and even better, is programmed in the one language I know how to work with, and so I shall use this sourcecode as a base, to start my SMA4 editor on!

I'll send hukka a message, if he's fine with that, but since it has been released, I guess it's ok if I use the code, as long as I give proper credits to him.


Well, that's all I can say so far.
I'll let you hear of any updates on my work!
(Hope, you'll forgive me the long post without any real content, but I just couldn't think of any other way of introducing myself to this fine board)

My next posts will be more useful, promise!

Well, welcome to the best of ROM Hacking forums.

Maybe you could work on a better Level Card Editor, because i'm just a beginner ^^
Even though, i will still work on my Solar Magic Advance ^^ (I got the motivation for that, but school and stuff gets in the way...)

But i have a little question, how did you play your hacked SMA4 on a GameBoy Player ?
