| Tip: Try making new backgrounds using SMW's existing graphics. For example, if you have a hilly BG, rearrange it to make it look more unique. |

I have a real cartridge of the Europe version of this game, i did a 100% save without any cheats.
And then, i heard about a bug about the e-Reader access in the Europe version because of a corrupted save, something that only appears on the US and Japan version,
because the e-Reader was not released in Europe.
So, i did glitch my save, by removing the cart when saving, and i do that a few times.
And i got my chance, i did make the "Level Card" file appear on the File Menu :
(By the way, the game is in french, the unused e-Reader access are translated !!)
And i did dump the save, so i can get a better screen, thanks to VBA :
There's also a funny thing behind that, my 100% save did disappear, to reappear after that "Level Card" file got "unlocked".
I also did a whole video about it (Game in french as well) :

And i don't know if the e-Reader works with it, i'm waiting to recieve the US e-Reader with a new GBA so i can test.

Well, I tried it and it works with my DS and my SMA4 cartridge. Pretty cool, now I just need a save file with the unlocked levels.

Well, e-levels are not in the ROM, they are really from the e-cards.
But anyway, i will do a save file with the e-levels IF the US e-Reader works with the Europe game.

Oh, I actually thought they were already in the ROM and just unlocked by the e-reader cards.

Yeah, the levels are not in the rom but the items and such are in there. You might mean that.

The levels ARE in the ROM. You unlock them with the e-Reader cards.

Above statement is false.
The E-reader exclusive objects, sprites, and all those fancy stuff are already in the ROM. The levels are stored (compressed) on the dot code of the E-reader cards.
The E-reader reads the dot code into SRAM, decompresses it from SRAM to a buffer in WRAM, and then loads the level data from that buffer. Atleast that's my theory. It is very likely that it goes like this.

I'm pretty sure the levels are already stored in the ROMs. Some people from Aclm. are working on this. They already have a .sav file with 99.5% of the US and Japanese levels availble for play. That last .5% is SMB 1-1. I don't think it will work, but all the other ones do.

They are not in the ROM, it's really on the Level Card.
I have a proof : I made my own Level Card from scratch.

And the SAV file contains the level cards data, or else, why would it be 128K then ?
