The tall enemy bit in World 4-2 must be fixed (still not corrected in awhile). Um, what now? Sorry, but if you explained this before, please do so again, I must have forgotten. What exactly is wrong in world 4-2? (If you have already explained it in detail, just point me to the post number or somethin`.) Hi, I am referring to the fact one of the Spinys appears to be taller than usual here, and it is halfway through the underground portion of the stage. Play the stage again, and you'll find out why. I did so... ~Ben |

Well, I'll investigate, but I haven't a clue as to what would even cause such a thing, so this could take awhile. I don't think I've changed anything relevant. Arg. On the other tentacle, due to the spagetti code nature of the enemy handling routines, the Red Piranha Plant changes are all over the place, perhaps I messed it up while implementing them. I'll go take a look ... (Now where did I put that chainsaw?) ... EditOk, I got it figured out. It wasn't a bug created by me. Rather, spinies apparently aren't supposed to appear in the map like normal enemies. They act a little odd if you do. For instance, if you put spinies in a level, Latiku will appear a little ways past them. (Frantik worked around this odd effect.) However, their initialization code isn't set up to handle them as normal objects, so it made for some strange bugs. Anyway, I added a proper initalizer to an unused object and I belive I've fixed it. You can get the patch at the usual location. I did some basic testing, but please test it some more. |

Well, sinced it's bumped, wouldn't this project been easier if you used Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels instead since you could replace stuff like the Poison Mushroom with something else. Keep up the good work on this project!! |

Sorry for the bump fellas, I'm curious on how the progress is going too. I'm sure that real life is getting in the way, now that the holidays are coming maybe'll be more free time to work on this hack if anything hopefully.
Everytime I play the old betas I get really hyped on how the Mario Bros. enemies'll work. ^_^'

well i don't want to burst anyone's bubbles but somehow i don't think we'll ever see new enemies. i'm pretty much done with what i was planning on contributing to SMBS and Karatorian seems to have a lot of other projects going too.. i'd really like to get a releasable port done (w/o the new enemies) though

Sorry I've gone AWOL again. I've been working out of town and don't have a laptop, so I've got no way to work on any of my projects during the week. Spending all week living in a motel, I'd rather spend my weekends out with friends, so I haven't really done any computer related stuff lately. My personal life has also been rather complicated of late.
The job I'm currently on should only last another week or two, so I should be able to find some more free time to work on SMBS. (No promises. The next job could be stay-away as well. Construction in the winter tends to get like that.)
I'll look into the corrupted archive of the latest patch. I'm not sure what happend with that, but I'll look into it. I'm sorry I don't have time to do more at the moment, but I haven't forgotten you guys. (I might have some free time next weekend, we'll see.)
As for the new enemies, I havn't abandoned the idea yet. However, I'm not working on the project several hours a day like I once was. It could take some time, but don't give up hope just yet.

I dunno, it seems sort of stupid that the project is so close to being finished and it could be dead. I mean, the level layouts are done. We can essentially play it from beginning to end on our own. I hope this thing gets finished.

After long (and unfortunate) delays, I've just posted the first offical beta test release to the RHDN database. So please grab it and give it a spin. It should show up in the DB shortly, but in the meantime you can get it at my new website. Now before anyone gets their hopes up, there are no major changes in this release. Just a few minor tweaks and a README. I haven't added any new enemies, new power ups or any of that. I know many of you where looking forward to those changes, but I simply don't have the time (at the moment) to impliment them. So, rather than leave the project in limbo, me and Frantik (he's busy with other things too) have decided to release the 1.0 version. To that end, we're running an official beta test before we wrap the project up. If all goes well, this will be the 1.0 version. If not, we'll run some more betas. So please test this release if you're at all interested in this hack. I'm assembling a list of playtesters (see the README for details), so you'll all get your fair share of the credit. Testing on hardware would be especially appreciated. Also, I'm running a mini screenshot contests. The final details havn't been worked out yet, but the best four will get thier screenshots featured in the database (and full credit, of course). So if you've got better skillz than me (I suck at Mario and cheat like crazy to test), grab a shot of anything cool or funny (or buggy, but that's another matter) and hold onto it. I'll work out the full rules and post them shortly. I know a lot of you wanted more, but I'm not going to promise what I can't deliver, so I won't. Once 1.0 is out, I'll release another source package, so anyone who wants to take it to the next level can do so. (I've already started working on making it possible to build on a platform other than un*x, so that issue should be fixed by then.) Once again, I'm very sorry that several planned (and much anticipated) features got cut and that I've dissappeared on you so many times. I'm very thankful for all the support, encouragement, advice, critiques, testing, and bug reports you've provided. It's been a great experiance. |

2-1 froze on me after climbing a vine. Music continued to play, but Mario never appeared on the screen.

Doh. Ok, I think I know what's going on there. There was a vine related bug in 4-3, so I changed the vine code a little bit. I must have broken it completely. I'll go straighten that out. Thanks for the report. EditShould be fixed now. You can get beta two here. Sorry for the inconvience. |
