🛠️ Romhack Races Baserom

For creating the Super Mario World levels for the Romhack Races weekly races, we provide an (optional) baserom for anyone to use. While a lot of the changes made and patches applied are mainly to accommodate Kaizo level design in particular, it can be equally used for other hack styles and it is very suitable for general purpose hack creation.

To make life easier for you as a hacker, this baserom uses a Callisto workflow to automagically rebuild your hack every time you make changes to it and keep things tidy. To find out more, you can read the documentation included with the baserom or you can get any of the releases here to check it out. :)

Update: Version 5.0!

Time for a major update to the RHR baserom! This release is a complete rebuild of the baserom with an entirely new toolchain and some updated tools:

- Lunar Helper has been replaced with a successor tool called Callisto, that serves as the new build system for the baserom. It works in a similar fashion but brings improved performance and usability
- UberASMTool and AddmusicK have been bumped to their latest releases (2.0 and 1.0.9 respectively) which also bring some improved functionality
- the UberASM Object system that has been in RHRv4 for a few releases has had a rewrite to be more functional and bring more features to the baserom
- the initialization process for getting started has been streamlined and all the included documentation in the baserom has been significantly updated and explains a lot more about what's what in the baserom.
- several outstanding issues were fixed and much of the resources got tidied up

As always you can get the baserom by downloading the zip file below. If you need more information check out the new documentation or reach out in RHR Discord.
