Yeah that was pretty awful to look at. Can happen anywhere unfortunately. But a huge thank you to all the admins who take care of this site. :-)

Why does the actual file say 04-12-07 when the title is 04-11-07? Did something change?

Anyway, I made the cart today, going to play it later.

Nice! I would like to have that exact cart made for me if you could ever do that. I already have someone who is going to make it for me for NES but I would like to have that exact model made for famicom. Please let me know how much it will be. I can do it sometime next month once I have the money.

Hey infidelity what was that one issue you told me about before about Super Mario Bros 3 that it doesnt affect gameplay but it happens when you jump? And how would you go about on fixing that issue? I want to make sure we all know what that problem is so it can get fixed as it is another hurdle to get over to getting this rom completely perfect. :>

Nothing to do with a character jumping. It's the irq within Mario 3 that fluctuates "jumps" everytime a dpcm sample is played. I need to still purchase a flash writer for myself to debug this. When I'm able to do that, I'll try to fix the irq for cartridges, and if I become successful, I will release a standalone version specifically for cartridge use.

The MMC5 via emulation has the irq working great. But the conversion from MMC3 to MMC5 is not so good on an authentic MMC5 mapper chip, so I need to do this myself, but I need $'s for the flasher.

Maybe MrPete could take a shot at it to see what he can do. I do not know if he knows how to work with that but I will ask right now.

It's gotta be done on my end. I have to heavily modify the game on order to do the debug, and I'd much rather be the one doing it in real time. I appreciate the offer and the drive you've been demonstrating in wanting this done, but it'll be much easier from me if I'm the one debugging it. It's not like beta testing a level, lot more to it with what I need to do.

Something that came to my mind is that MMC3 uses a 220pF capacitor between PPU A12 and GND.
Perhaps adding that one on a MMC5 cart might work to deglitch the IRQ?

Mario 2J save glitch seems fixed.

Playing on NEStopia I still have the issue with the Mario 1 level select glitch, is there a different emulator I should try?

I made a video showing my playthrough and what happens when I try to select a world after completing the first quest

I just tested it in FCEUX, same problem. Presed B a few times on title after defeating Bowser, started with 2-1 though.

I was able to duplicate this error. It was all because of the Save & Continue function. When you save before beating the game, and the game reloads to the title screen, and then you use the B button to cycle worlds, what would happen is my loading routine would kick in, and load from the sram the saved values and insert them into the ram registers.

So when you press B at Princess Toadstool, the game never saves, it just goes right back to the title screen. So this explains the strange values for worlds like 2-5, cause the ram register on the tile screen was getting the previously saved registers, before you defeated the game. So to fix this, I created an automatic save function once you press the B button at Princess Toadstool. So this should finally fix the issue. I was able to watch in real time how this error occurred, and after my additional code, I no longer saw it happen.

Ah, no problem. Thanks!

EDIT:
Still not fixed.
I played the game. Saved at 8-4, beat Bowser.
I was able to press start to get to the save menu during the cutscene with princess.
Pressed B a few times on title. Landed on 7-1

ugh im getting really burnt out with this game...

how is this possible? you are not using a previously created SRAM file are you? You started this completely fresh from the start?

Please be as specific as possible, did you save continue? did you save quit? did you do either of those in the 8-4 castle, or did you do this during the cutscene with Princess Toadstool? When pressing B did it actually cycle through the entire world id's?

I just again put up a new one that fixes Mario's power up state when pressing B on the title screen to select a world. Say you saved last as big Mario, then you are small, then you save Princess Toadstool and press B. The title screen comes on and you are small as you are supposed to be, but when you press B, it'll load the last saved value of his power up state, so he would instantly turn into Big Mario. So I fixed that when you press B to restart the game.
