Update on some things

Hello people & patrons! This is a new kind of post as I've never done one like this.

Firstly, I'd like to thank the patrons I currently have since their support means a lot for me, thank you so much!

Next, I've been working on several things in the past few months which I'd like to provide an update to you all.

Custom Powerups
This patch was discontinued, it was a buggy mess that I'd like not touch again. It's a massive patch and required a lot of tim...

Wiggler Unrestrictor 1.0

Small patch to increase/decrease the amount of wigglers that can be processed at any time by the game. As a plus, it also makes them ignore the sprite header setting, increasing its compatibility with custom sprites, No More Sprite Tile Limits and SA-1 Pack's MaxTile.

Dynamic Spriteset System (WIP)

This is an early version of my attempt to build spritesets dynamically. No more building ExGFX and using disassemblies to have a diverse cast of sprites on a level.

One of the current downsides is that you might need to learn ASM to use custom resources with this. I'll be sure include some docs about how to use the system, but learning ASM will be on your side.


I'm aiming to release this in my GitHub at some point, this is just a video preview :)

Just what the title says, I've released a syntax highlighter for VSCode which is trying to be superior to the alternatives in the extension marketplace which have a bunch of errors when it comes to parse the text in the files.

OBJ Viewer v3.0

YES. A new version of OBJ Viewer has been released!

This version now has previews for CGX and COL files and a neat file explorer to not keep using the File menu, making the whole process of matching files much faster.

OBJ Viewer v2.0

Finally a BIG update! This time the tool can play sequences embedded into the files and has better performance overall.

It also requires Pillow to work now, due to it working with images.

The tool also supports exporting OBJ files compatible with SCad.

OBJ Viewer v1.1

Quick and powerful update to the tool. It adds a bunch of new controls and makes the script a whole lot smaller.

Same as the previous release, download the script, read the GitHub repo and you will be good to go.

OBJ Viewer v1.0

OBJ Viewer is a Python script that lets you open OBJ data if the necessary files are provided.

It requires Python 3 and Ttk (if you have a recent version of Python 3 you should be fine)

Just download the .py file from the GitHub repo, read the repo's readme and you will be good to go!

Super Mario Maker 2's P-Balloon in Super Mario World

A P-Balloon powerup inspired by Super Mario Maker 2's variant in its Super Mario World style. It recreates the controls and behavior of the SMM2's one and it's contained in a single sprite.

SNES Toy Story's level 10 background v1.0

I've decided to release this thing to the general public as I don't think I'm gonna use it at all.

There are some important notes about this by the way!

  •  This resource requires a LOT of processing in order to work fine. You may encounter lag if you place too many sprites on screen on non SA-1 enhanced ROMs.
  • snes9x 1.60 fails to draw the diagonal metal beams on SA-1 enhanced ROMs. Please use a more accurate emulator. More info: 2020-04-12 03:47:30 +0000 UTC View Post

Small status & Custom Powerups update

I have gone somewhat silent over there, which isn't the best for this kind of page. But I have been somewhat busy fixing some stuff in the Custom Powerups patch, which is coming along really nicely so far. The update is almost ready to be released, it only needs a little bit more of testing.
For now, be sure to check out the embedded video, which showcases a small fix of a bug that has been around for a long t...

Cosmic Clones in Super Mario World

Cosmic Clones are my C3 Winter 2020 release, completely built from scratch in the past 2 weeks or so.

They follow the same path as the player and can hurt or even kill the player upon contact. The clones aren't restricted to use the same graphics as Mario either, they can use any graphics you want.

There are several options included in the asm file, be sure to read it!

Dynamic Spriteset V2

I've reworked a spriteset system I made last summer, but this time it's much better. With this I can:

- Automatically fill my SP3 and SP4 areas with sprite GFX
- Not worry about mixing sprite GFX and compatibility between sprites.
- Load sprite GFX midlevel
- Avoid wasting unnecesary space and time building compatible sprite GFX files

I still need to fix each sprite I'll be using, but I already have a routine which is going to make the whole process infinitely more bearab...
