Nevermind, I've figured out what the problem was from this thread.

Basically, everyone is using the .sfc type for Super Mario World, but I still use the .smc version.

I really don't know when did everyone switch to .sfc, but at least I found out sooner than later.

P.S. I'm probably disqualified from the C3LDC now because of this... at least I'm not disqualified from two contests...

Thanks for the help though!

What. Does that mean I'm screwed too?
Want progress on 100 Rooms of Enemies: The Nightmare Edition? Go here to see.

your 24H entry gives error too with both .smc and .sfc.
I'm pretty sure your rom is unclean.

I haven't updated my entry yet, still making my last, few changes so I don't have to continuously repatch the ROM everytime.

The patch will work when my post in the "Rules & Submissions Thread" says "EDIT3:"

I haven't seen your entry yet, so I'm not sure. But I'm 90% sure the issue is because everyone uses the .sfc file type now instead of .smc

iirc .bps doesnt even let you patch to a .sfc file
ask me if i give a f*ck...
I currently play through all entries and I noticed that three BPS files weren't patched: Aside from Chineesmw which he noticed himself, Carld923 and Ruberjig's BPS are broken too, at least when patched on my clean ROM.

Edit: Now two, chineesmw has fixed his BPS.

Strange, your entry works with the .sfc file.

tl;dw

Basically I tried patching an entry to an .smc file and it was incompatible, but it worked with the .sfc file.

My entry is vice-versa, it's only compatible with .smc

No, it isn't. I have got an .smc file too and yet, your entry doesn't work on my ROM.
Weird, I'm not sure anymore... but I just converted my entry into an SFC file. Does it work now?

YES


OH MY GOOD GOD, I'M FINISHED AND CAN ACTUALLY GO TO SLEEP NOW. HELL YEAH, DON'T EVEN CARE IF I GET LAST—I FINISHED.

e: Probably a bit more difficult than a usual World 2 level, I'll admit.
I know the feeling. Pat yourself in the back!
And it's over! Thanks everyone for participating!

We'll try to get the results done by the time the VLDC starts.
I hope I win

Or make it to top 10
...top 15? #ab{:(}
It's easily the best thing I've done
So why the empty numb?
I'm not a judge but i'm gonna try to play all the entries and offer feedback!

I'll admit, I'm a little disappointed with some of the entries I've seen so far. I was looking forward to a contest that scores points for staying authentic to the design philosophies implemented in the original SMW. The style has definitely shifted away from pure platforming in favour of gimmicks and sprite-oriented design (which is fair, we've had 10 years of rom-hacking under our belts so it's nice to keep things fresh). Still would've been interested to see people try to emulate the design of the original fortresses in the game.
If you haven't already, I urge you to check them out and compare your level to them.

Welp, it's too bad I decided to come back here while this contest was still running! Also, since it was at, like, 9:00 P. M. I had absolutely no time to research the level design of Donut Plains/Twin Bridges and make a fortress level that fits in with one of those worlds! Oh, well. Probably wouldn't have ranked very high anyways, thanks to my sub-par level design skills. Although I may play the other submissions.

Wait, but didn't VLDC 9 happen only a couple of weeks ago? Does that mean the results will come out in a year?
