Hello, Baron99. Welcome to Board 2.

Thanks for the updated news. I did happen to notice the news when it was posted on Romhacking.net:
ROM Hacks: Super Mario Advance 4: eReader Version

However, next time, please don't post direct download links to ROMs. This is a pretty standard rule in the ROM hacking community. Thank you.

I am so sorry, that was my first, and last !

Hey, can someone help me ?
I wanna create the demo cards that Nintendo and Caitsith2 did not release, But whenever I use Solar Magic advance to create the demo cards, NO$GBA crashes while scanning it.
Specifically, these :

Hey all, I've been lurking around here gaining lots of insight. After finishing the save will all the e-reader levels, I started to use some tools I found (I think I found them on here, the sma4savtool) and I've had some hex editing fun.

The World-e castle does indeed have 3 floors. If you use edit the levels with the e-Coins and move them to another spot in the castle, you can see the other floors. Although, after doing this, the music goes wonky, but oh well.

I tried an experiment this morning. I duplicated the e-Coin levels, changing the coin's spot in the castle, level ids and adding a new character to the level name. After playing through some of my edited levels, I discovered that getting an e-Coin from a duplicated level counts as getting the coin from the original level.

When I get home from school, I'm going to try to edit the e-Coin gfx to trick the game into thinking its a new one, then test if I can force it into the castle. My end goal is to fill all 24 frames and see what happens. (Maybe nothing, maybe something cool) I've been using a hex editor as I wait for progress on Kiiro's Solar Magic project. Solar Magic Advance is a useful level viewer, so thanks for your hard work.

Sorry for the wall of text, I'll post an update when I have it.

Wow that sounds really cool! I've always wondered if anything special would happen with all the e-Coins.

The sma4 hacking scene is really exciting. I think I'll tinker around myself and see if I can contribute...

Update: Almost done making Solar Magic Advance save things. I can edit the e-Coin data perfectly, but the rest of the level data gets erased. Hopefully I'll have it done withing a few days.

This has been a hard and fun thing to work on.

It would seem that the game will allow every level (excluding #28) to be duplicated once and then let you get another e-Coin. Right now, I'm at 15. A second duplicate of a level will not allow a coin to be collected again. I think at this point my only option is to make whole new levels, which is going to be incredibly complicated.

Anyone who has made new levels before, if you can give me some insight on how to do this, I would appreciate it.

Ok, it's finally done. All 24 frames in the castle are full with some weird, ugly coins. Nothing happens. My e-Levels say 24/25 coins, but that's just a small oversight in my hex editing efforts. I have about 6 copies of "Vegetable Volley" all called "e-Coin battles".

This topic seems a little dead.

Thanks to the help of my brilliant programming teacher, I have managed to add a save feature to Solar Magic Advance; when you change the e-Coin data, you can actually save the changes into the level!

Yep. I have extensive notes. The only thing I'm not the best at is duplicating levels and making the game think there is another e-Coin.

Yes and do you need a e-level decompressor pack?
