A screenshot is not enough to show wario's badassery, and I've completed the axe animation, so here is a short gameplay video for you guys only : Charging the axe and throwing it make it a bit faster and more deadly : the first enemy impacted is killed as usual if it's from a little bird...

:) I'll try adding a table-tennis bat in his arsenal, to reflect projectiles. Enemies are all birds of different species. For example : The one with black outlined eyes is an homing one, and the big ugly squary sprites are ones for a big bird (slower & more bulky, doesn't die in one hit). The...

No new video today, but I learn something huge today : where the ROM tile data for the level being played is localized in RAM between region transition (used to load next region's tiles). Watching a video on the data structure of Super Mario Land 2 ( here), I thought maybe I could also find it...

I begun constructing one level on your editor in march, the first level of topaz entrance (in the style of the original game). It was kinda funny thinking new puzzles variation with the cat blocks. I'll try to finish it. :)

Thanks guys for your feedback ! It was very frustrating at times to counteract what the game does (especially for the seal), and to stumble over and over on pieces of my own code that I wrote badly, but at the end I'm happy I can do that kind of thing to this sweet pearl of a game. I'm even more...

I finished the montage and uploaded the video, have fun guys ! :WLWarioLaughs:

I had two weeks of course in subcontracting (packaging, assembling stuff, etc) so I had little time. Now it's finished, I can go on and finish the video montage on sony vegas. :)

Mmh I don't think I will do this, because it doesn't take as long to leave this status and you keep decent control of wario's movement all its duration, on contrary to fire wario where you can only jump in the first stage (and not jump at all in the second). There's more interesting stuff to do...

It's a seal on which you can bounce higher or lower depending on wario's fall distance, and molesting it (1 shoulder bash or 3 jumps on it) will make it escape in the opposite direction until a 2 tile-high wall is hit (not done yet) or if it goes over the screen ; then it stops and sleeps again...

Yes, i'm currently programming a new common enemy for a beach level. It's not easy, and making each frame for his animation is going to be a pain in the butt (it's a big sprite) ! Right now I need to finish his fleeing mechanic and some stuff related to spawning. Also in the meantime I also...

Thank you Tiger for your kind words. I hope WL4 will give you more hacking-success than its predecessor ! :penguinbeer:

It's because I know a bit more about the game than 6 months ago, when, for example : I didn't know where the objects'/enemies' spawn for each one was defined in the RAM. It's easier to control the behaviour of one specific enemy amongst a bunch now that I know the two addresses which contain the...

Here it is guys ! I also simplified the treasure collection system I was aiming for in the beginning (and made it so it actually skips unwanted WL3 cutscenes now), + coded some stuff to write text as in the original game for new cutscenes (need to be finished).

Looks rad. This is some supersonic speed peppino has in his legs ! :WLWarioLaughs:

Check this for the main functions on VBA re-recording : Google Code Archive - Long-term storage for Google Code Project Hosting. Bizhawk would have better for my project I think, but it's kinda late for an emulator change ... You can do almost anything to the game if you know the LUA langage...

Hello man, and thanks ! :bigwah:There'll be some time before this hack is made playable for everyone. My developing pace is kinda fast right now, but it might slow down because of real life projects. I checked your hack 6 months ago, and to be frank I gave up on the first stage because of the...

A new level core-mechanic has been made : thunder falling from the sky and aiming for wario and other enemies periodically, also activating torchs, and doors through electricity-friendly poles. I'll make a short video soon.

The video is uploaded. Less tedious text and more gameplay this time ! :wargh2:

Interesting gimmick. It doesn't seem incredibly hard to reproduce in WL3, for example to adapt it to the golf block (in relation to a modified barrel or stone wario is holding). Though the game can't store more than 8 "non-wario objects" at once in the RAM, so for complex puzzles in huge regions...

Though I have something to say, "magnetic platforms" is a bit misleading : those ain't the sort of stuff you see in ratchet & clank games where you can run on walls with special boots ! It's more like a high gravity field making Wario jump lower while he's on those platforms. It's still...
