Tip: Take advantage of easy to install Patches in your hack. The No More Sprite Tile Limits patch should be considered if you're encountering glitches where Mario and/or sprites are turning invisible.

Will this most likely be done by the end of February.

I've still been working on getting this release since my last post however. Everything's pretty much complete and there's really nothing major left to do like at all. I'm currently trying to find a last boss but I think I have an idea of what it would be. The only thing left to do is wait on a few ports as well as my brother to draw a character for me. Right now I just have to set the midpoints with the multiple midpoints patch as well as fix a few errors on the Overworld. I honestly don't think it should take too much longer...so here's to hoping I have this done in early February. (No seriously, I really want to release this already)


It seems like that was his plan =P I am really excited to see this be released. Remember, do not rush yourself EvilGuy, even if there are tons of people pressuring you to hurry up, there is no need in it =)

Thank you for this. #w{=)}. That's what I've been somewhat trying to do, just making sure everything's absolutely ready.

Please bear with me when I say, I don't know when this will be released. I'm working as hard as I can do get this release but there's still a few things to wait on. Those that are doing stuff for the hack such as ports and making the last boss, I'd rather have them take all the time they need then expect them to be done at a certain time. I don't want to make a official release date as most of them I didn't meet.
Ugh, so after almost a week and a half of being unsuccessful, I finally got the multiple mid points patch to work a little bit. (Thanks to Kaijyuu.) From here I don't think it should take more then 2 or 3 days to figure this out as well as set all the midpoints up.

That should speed things up as that was the only thing slowing my progress down. Right now I'm just waiting on one more port (that from the looks was pretty close to being completed) as well as the final boss to be completed. (It seems like it can be finished soon) Last but not least, my brother's going to draw a character for me. (I don't know if I mentioned that.) I'm not sure how long that would take but hopefully not more then a week or 2.

Well that's pretty much it, I can finally say. There's still a few minor errors left to fix but I'm sure my questions can be answered in the general hack helping section so yeah. I'll show the final 3 level videos of this hack. (Not the final 3 levels).

Speical World: Crystal Caverns

World 6: Volcano Castle

World 3: Factory (Battle Grounds)

This will be my last important update in this thread. My next update should hopefully be in the release section 1, 2 or 3 weeks for now. (I'm hoping 2 at the most). So yeah...feedback and comments are always welcome and appreciated.
Dude, now these levels are pretty kick ass, great music choices! Now I am not just saying that because I like MMX lol, they really do match up with the levels =D Especially the Spark Mandrill music in that Factory level! And like I have said before (I think I have said it before lol), your Special World Levels are the right difficulty! My only complaint is that the Factory level seems to be harder than the Volcano Castle =/
In case you haven't checked your PM inbox recently, the port is finished (finally). Is that the last port you need?
Has the final boss been finished and whats left Im really excited for this.

Let's see..what's left.

1. Character & Last Boss Graphics (My brother's still drawing these.)

2. Last Boss (From what I hear it's almost done.)

3. Set the Midpoints. (So far this isn't going so successful.)

4. Fix the remaining of the errors and overworld errors. (I'm trying to get the big stuff out the way first.)

5. Ending credits in such. (Saving that for last.)

As you can see 3 is slowing the release down a lot. (I've spent a few weeks trying to get them to work.) As soon as I can get that figured that out (If I can.) That should bring the hack closer to release. (I don't think I'm missing anything else.)
How many over world errors are there.
Will this most likely be done by the end of February.

Stop being so goddamn impatient. It'll be done when it's done.

Thank you for this #w{=)}

crith, don't get me wrong, I'm really really stoked that your looking forward to this but please be patient. Rushing or asking me when it's going to be released isn't going help me get this released any faster. The "Getting Everything ready for release" Process isn't excatly the fastest process ever. I'd rather take my time making sure everything is ready for release rather then stress myself out by having a release date. (No really, it's stressful trying to meet a deadline.) I can't answer rather it will be done by the end of February because I don't know. Just know that I'm working as hard as I can to get this release, so please be patient. (In other words, please don't ask about when it'll be released or what's left.)
Well, to be honest I can't wait for it BUT I want to play it in good quality so I'm patient, keep it up EG :D

Also, for the sequel, I'll rip some overworlds for you for support :D
Heya, it's been almost a few weeks since I updated. (Seemed like longer)
Just thought I should mentioned that I haven't forgot about releasing this one bit. Right now I'm currently waiting on my brother to modify/draw the player graphics & Last Boss graphics or to find somebody willing to do that for me. Right now I'm not having much luck as my brother still hasn't started yet. -sigh- If worse comes to worse I might just have to use Mario or something and just change the palettes or try modifying the graphics myself....but I'm hoping it won't come to that. Other then that, everything is literally finished. Just thought I should update a little.


I'll wait two in a half weeks more for my brother to start the graphics or find somebody willing to help out. (March 17) If they aren't done by then, then I'll have to go with plan B unfortunately. I really was hoping to have this hack released in febuary and not have to wait any longer. =/

Well anyways, here's the very last level video I'll show from this hack before it's released.


SMW: "The After Years" - Starlight Casino
Hey! It's a great level! It had to take many time to decorate all this... And you have some nice Megaman music. =)

Can't wait for the final release. I wish you many luck and I hope you can release it soon. Don't take it fast, if you need time, you can always quietly work on it as many time as you can. We can always wait for it.

PS. I see one folk came back to SMW Central. I'm sure he will also play this hack as soon as it's released. Guess who! (well, I guess he is back BTW)
Wow, EvilGuy! You've surely become a great hacker when I was gone.

That level looks really nice: well designed and the difficulty looks spot on. I'm happy you're releasing a demo, too. Looking forward to it.

Keep up the great work, man. :)

edit: haha, Teo, you're always one step ahead of me, aren't you. :P

Holy s**t! GvS is back! Welcome back man, good to see you! Been playing the demo of that Big Boo Gang and it is good =D

Alright for the sake of posting something relative to the thread lol, this hack is gonna be BOSS when it comes out =)
Better than Combo Breaker, probably (and by probably, I mean there is a 15% chance it isn't). Certainly a lot more well known. It looks pretty good for a chocolate hack.
Wow... considering I was inactive for roughly three months, this hack is looking even better than the last time I saw it. Great work, and I can't wait to play it!
@Teo17: Haha thanks a lot. Believe me when I say it took quiet awhile to make the full level as finding ways to make sure the level was well decorated was a bit tough. Also yeah I've been taking a bit slow..I don't want to rush into releasing the hack or anything without making sure everything error free #w{=)}

@GeorgeVsSonic: Whoa, honestly when I saw the name "GeorgeVsSonic" I thought I was just seeing things because I just woken up around the time. Little did I know, you're back! And thanks a lot man. Actually it'll be the full release and not a demo XD; but yeah welcome back man. Good to have you back on SMWC.

@Sokobansolver: Thanks a lot. I wouldn't want to compare my hack to anybody else, (Also considering that I thought Combo Breaker looked pretty cool.)

@akacesfan & camoslash: Thanks you guys.


Well guys, thanks a lot for the support this far into the hack. I'm really looking forward to releasing this (Better yet finally releasing something) soon rather then later.
Never commented before, but you're doing a really good job in this hack, EvilGuy.
