Thanks for playtesting!

For the triple taps, you just have to be very fast. Most people can do it in 2-10 tries, so maybe it is your controller. I have heard that Umar lies down on the ground to get this trick but I can't endorse this

Don't feel bad about not learning zero speed pumping. 45 minutes is not really long enough to learn this trick, and you only need it for a few hacks.

We will make clear videos when we move to version 1.0. Here's a video of the trick being done, at 25:53 https://youtu.be/ntE0aG5-WHo

Learning to Fly

Creators: DJLocks, NewPointless

Exits: 54

Description: This is a cape tutorial hack. It has 46 tutorial levels, 8 tests, 5 practice rooms, and an extra Luigi-only tutorial. Topics covered are from totally basic to barely RTA viable.

This has an open overworld. Play exactly what you want, learn from straightforward tutorials, and then play cape hacks from your favorite creators.

I've opted for more of a Learn 2 Kaizo style release, rather than Kaizo Kindergarten. We hope people have fun, but it's meant to be more of a teaching tool than a full hack experience. You'll get the most out of this hack if you use the in-game text and clear videos. Consulting outside sources and even emulator tools may be helpful.

Thanks! Katun is working on a more comprehensive list of helpful patches. This link might change, but for now it's here:

Open up Regedit (Registry Editor) by typing it in to the search bar.

Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Policies/Explorer

If this folder doesn't exist, create one by right-clicking in the empty pane under /Policies/ and create a new "Key", which is a folder, and name it Explorer.

Now create a new DWORD (32-bit) Value and name is NoStrCmpLogical. Right click on the new value, select modify, and set its "Value data" to 1. You should see in the pane on the right that its "Data" is 0x00000001 (1).

Now restart your computer. When you boot up, your files should sort by hex values in Explorer and Lunar Magic open file dialogues, like so:

GFX00.bin
GFX01.bin
GFX02.bin
GFX03.bin
GFX04.bin
GFX05.bin
GFX06.bin
GFX07.bin
GFX08.bin
GFX09.bin
GFX0A.bin
GFX0B.bin
GFX0C.bin
GFX0D.bin
GFX0E.bin
GFX0F.bin
GFX10.bin
etc.

Yeah, it's always worked like this. The issue with a zero-tolerance policy is whether it continues to be the case whether you "really have to be pushing it." I think this new process is really a good one. Thanks to the mods for clarifying how they will determine if a statement is made "in bad faith" vs. one that comes about because of a language barrier or harmless difference of opinion.

Great use of tiling and repetition to create texture.

Here's a port I haven't released. Maybe useful for a boss fight or intense challenge.
