HyperHacker: The converter's planned to become open source, but I haven't heard anything from spinout in a week, who wrote most of the collision and scene file generation code, among other things. I'm pretty sure he's also for open sourcing it (considering ex. his own Python-based tools), but I'd still like to ask him beforehand.

As for porting a game from one Ucode to another... it would probably be rather difficult for a whole game. Stuff like levels and objects isn't that complicated if you know about both Ucodes (ex. the damn vertex buffer size differences), where the data's stored and know what you're doing. Display Lists that aren't as easily located - generated on-the-fly or whatever even - are something else, for which you'd probably need to disassemble at least part of the game.

That said, Rena looks like she it's an interesting project, especially the Rena-to-N64 parser part you mentioned - that way, all those Ucode limitations and such wouldn't matter as much anymore. Also, that's much more intelligent than the way our SM64-Z64 converter works: for DList conversion, it basically takes Mario 64's RAM segment 0x07 containing the level data, adds RAM segment 0x09 containing textures not inside the level data to its end, then goes through each DList and just modifies each command that needs changing, meaning Ucode-specific ones and SETTIMG (to fix the texture offset). That resulting batch of data is the base for the Zelda map file. It doesn't ex. combine two Fast3D TRI1 commands into one of F3DEX2's TRI2 or do anything else that could be considered "intelligent" here. I think Rena, or at least your plans for it, are already way ahead of this project

Yes, porting an entire game to another ucode would be terribly difficult. I meant just porting the levels to work in another game. Importing from Mario 64 is one of my goals. Maybe Zelda too if the game can handle it.

See also this, and apply it to a SMAS (NOT a SMAS+W) ROM, if you want to see for yourself.

I guess I'll make a double post.

Soon, also a Mode 7 overworld (it's somewhat done already, but I want to do the whole rastering without needing to use DSP-1).
I realize Mode 7 is like, one of the most overrated things known to SNES ROM hacking, but whatever. My favourite is Mode 5, but nobody seems to care about that. {B)

Impressive. Mode7 might be "overrated" but it's still a technical feat to implement it in an existing game properly.

^ That is pretty cool. Mode 7 is nice for simple effects like that.

This is taking longer than it should to restore to what it was before rsync failed all over it, but it's close... it just needs to stop pulling texture coordinates out of nowhere >.>
(The screenshot program crops out the title bar. Oh well.)

Fuzzyfreak: Hah, you even manage to use custom blocks on SMAS, you will manage to complete that level editor... no, wait, that's SWR, but i don't make differences, also cool mode7 screen, i would give some ideas: you could make a "Star Wars" like message (like in the intro) with mode7 (i guess it is acutally implemented in the snes game too. Didn't try also NSMB's rotating FG, like in the last level? Just a thought, though.

Hyperhacker: what is that?

Well i have something to show too:








Those acutally come from an unknown hack called Super Mario: Ucronia, made by me. No one came to look at it, but i relased it before being kicked

Wow, Conte de Contis! You're a true SMW artist!
I played your hack Mario in Miscland Moon and it was very cool, and these screenshots look very good!

Nice!

Just a side project.

(On a side project note, the less of a reference image I have, the more baselike an image gets.)

I would love to be a random trainer or gym leader... Whatever floats you boat if you go for it.

To anyone who wants in, send me a PM-Picture of generally what you want your character to look like. No promises that it will match 1:1, but it will be the same in spirit.

Only the gym leaders? No Elite 4 + Kanto? (Or rival, or red) Becouse I'd like to be in as one of those...

Described is fine, once again, no promises. (Size constraints and color constraints make some things hard to do)

Tina joins the Pokebrawl.

This is only a learning hack, so I am only doing one area. I have other plans for the evilteam/rival. The EAT5 is decided already.
