First you need YY-CHR so you can edit your graphics. You also need ExGFX since you want it to be on one specific level only.

I have another question too, how do I insert new mario gfx?

Once you have your mario graphics set, press this icon

on Lunar Magic to insert all your graphics. Also, if you want it to be level specific only, you might need to use Mario ExGFX patch.

well... i'm going to buy a netbook, an airis with android 2.2 the question is: does lunar magic work on android?

ii said a netbook, its that little minimicrosmall PC wich only have 4 GB of memory...

Well, if you mean that your internet connection is through an android, and your computer runs Windows or Mac, there's nothing stopping you from using Lunar Magic, I do all my hacking on a netbook!

no, i mean that this netbook runs android 2.2 OS


	Thanks Ladida for this EPIC and Awesome layout!

It's been forever since I've been on here!

I had this question about my overworlds. See, I know a "blocky" overworld is kind of a bad thing, so I want my overworlds to be as non-blocky as possible. My problem is, I want this hack to be vanilla (no ExGFX). I just wanted to ask everyone, does this look acceptable? I am mostly talking about the clouds. Note that after the 2nd level Mario will climb down the "faced mountain thingy" to the castle "Mt. Storm".

I don't want Baby yoshi to grow instantly when he eats a powerup. Do anyone know a way to disable this? I checked in the rom map and found nothing.

I dug around a bit in all.log and submitted this to the ROM map.

Sprite Misc.

Change to [80 06 EA EA EA EA EA EA] to make Baby Yoshi instantly get big from everything, or change it to [80 45 EA EA EA EA EA EA] to make Baby Yoshi treat powerups as any other sprite and require five of them to grow large.

I'm thinking about making a custom bonus game for a hack I'm making. Does anyone know where I would start out. The sprites themselves I would imagine not too hard to program, like they would probally be coded like this: (check if sprite is dead, if dead add/subtract a ram value, else return(assuming your making a bonus game where you kill as many enemies as you can before time runs out)then make a generator check the time remaining until it hits 0, check the value in the ram address, then give Mario the appropriate prize), but how would you code Mario leaving the bonus room. I know bonus room editing is possible, as I've seen it in a few hacks. Could someone help?

Eh, sure. Why not? Kaizo hacking doesn't seem too ha-aaaaaaand I broke the ROM.

Thanks so much, Alcaro.

I am trying to have an auto scroll level with a wall of lava chasing you (as if auto-scroll wasn't evil enough >

) but the lava won't even appear. Here are the settings I have:

SNES Registers and Level Modes:
02
No vertical scroll

Sprite header:
00

Layer 2 Scrolling rate:
H-scroll: None V-Scroll: None

Autoscroll
Slow

What have I done wrong? Did I miss information here to help figure out the problem?

So remember kids! If you ever get caught having tosave a princess from a foreign land after getting dragged down a drain pipe, jumping while spinning in a circle can help you greatly by allowing you to jump on spinning saw blades, ghosts, and allow you to control your jump better!

Is the lava on Layer 1 or layer 2?

Are you using the tileset specific lava, or the lava that can be used in any level?

Eh, sure. Why not? Kaizo hacking doesn't seem too ha-aaaaaaand I broke the ROM.

Are you entering the level with the lava directly from the overworld or a one screen level exit? Because if you enter a level with layer 2 that follows Mario from a level with multiple screens, my experience is that it just doesn't show up regardless of settings.

tileset specific

Also cheat master, the level is in a part of another level (you enter from another level), and the lava is from the level I want the auto-scroll in.

How many screens does the prior area have?

first: 2 areas will enter it (a bonus room and normal way)
1 screen or 12 screens (Hex)

Does it work if you enter it from the bonus room?
