This patch fixes 3 quirks in SMW:
-Certain X speeds cause Mario to be unable to jump (despite playing the jump sfx), this happens when being pushed very fast from an autoscroll or boost block.
-If your speed is higher than the maximum, holding forward in that direction would slow you down.
-When you're moving at the maximum speed, your speed is constantly oscillating up and down around the maximum, rather than staying constant.
You can select which fixes you'd like applied within the patch settings. The included readme details the impact to how the game plays from each fix.
3.0 update by tjb: Complete rewrite of most of the code to fix several bugs, and added options to make some fixes optional.
-If your speed is higher than the maximum, holding forward in that direction would slow you down.
...If you are in midair.
How this works is that when pressing left/right in midair, the game applies the same deceleration used when you are on the ground. I think this is an oversight that Nintendo programmed on how to cap the player's X speed in midair.
Fixed a crash where if you re-insert patch with !FixOscillation disabled when holding left or right (JSL remained but not the code). Seems to work correctly otherwise.
