Last Thread: And there we go, SUBMISSIONS FOR NEW LEVELS ARE NOW CLOSED!
Hi all Anons, once again. I wanted to thank you all for participating in Super Mario Zig Forumsorld 2. For those who didn't see nor know, I was the organizer for Super Mario Zig Forumsorld, a Super Mario World Collaboration hack with levels by your fellow Anons. This period lead its course for 31 threads, and now that period is over. As a result, this first testing thread will be created to start scanning over the levels, discussing other aspects of the project, and submitting updates to submitted WIPs.
The first thing to note - YOU CAN SUBMIT UPDATES HERE. While I would prefer an Email, you're perfectly allowed to send your update here. Be sure to include all needed files, as you would before.
Second - THIS IS THE LAST DAILY THREAD. Follow this bump, testing threads will occur every Saturday for the next four weeks. Once those testing threads are over, the hack will release. Make the most of your time. If you need to update your level, don't wait until the last minute.
I will detail some other things in the posts below
As you may remember, we were planning two final bosses for Zig Forums2. The first, Xaruin, is more or less feature complete and merely lacks some QoL polish. The second, however, is yet to start.
The plan for 5-FINAL (hereby called by it's official final name "The Rage") is to have 3AB's Zig Forums-tan as the final boss. Unlike with the first final boss though, everything about this boss is in the hands of you Anons. Things needed at the moment are: > Boss Attacks > Boss Music > Boss Setup/Ending
One of the Anons in the threads offered to code it (the same user who made the Zig Forums1 final boss), but the actual planning for the boss I want to put in the hands of you Anons. From there, the Boss will begin being coded in the next week or two. Thanks a bunch.
I'm still working on the space balloon level, but theres a version in there for anyone to test, I'd appreciate some feedback on it. I'm thinking of modifying the balloons to allow mario to duck while riding them so you don't have to latch on to them while ducking to make some parts reasonable.
I think the balloons are fine the way they are honestly
Sounds good user, can't wait
Jackson Jenkins
Been pretty slow on 120 since it took forever to iron out kinks that would cause the ASM to kill the player on accident. Finally got it all worked out though, if I'm lucky I might have a fairly playable version by the end of this thread.
Luke Gomez
is it going to be a sprite or layer 2 boss?
Robert Miller
Sounds good. I wasn't able to include 120 in the rom today because you forgot to send the Map16. If you get it done by this weekend though I'll put it in the next testing thread
Luis Watson
it'll be sprite-based. usage of layer 2 is a very real possibility but i hate looking for good layer 3 backgrounds so i'll take suggestions for those too
Adam Walker
god damn I want to play so bad, but I'm gonna hold off until the actual release. This hack seems like it's REALLY high quality. All of you are my heroes
Dylan Wood
What's the code that protects layer 3 from message boxes again?
Isaac Cox
Is there a battletoad inspired level ?
Evan Torres
Layer3BG.asm
SMWC found out last night and was puking at it, which I guess is an expected reaction from them. Hopefully hack quality outshines the "le Zig Forums" part
Austin Howard
I'd prefer if V-tan was actually a small sprite like Moot was in Zig Forums1. Being a giganormous boss is Xaruin's gig.
The plan is Zig Forums to be a small sprite. Question then is moves/attacks

>idol being a gigantic faggot about it as usual what a surprise >I'm scared to ask what [WT Snacks] references man, this is already great
Nolan Johnson
>Layer3BG.asm Alright, now how do I get it to run alongside the .asm I already have assigned to said level in list.txt?
Will I have to try to merge the two .asm in one file?
Nicholas Moore
More or less
Christian Williams
>SMWC found out last night and was puking at it, Do you have a link? I can't find a thread about it on their forum
Brandon Morris
>SMWC found out last night and was puking at it just looked at it, what a bunch of insufferable faggots it eludes me how they can even stand to be around each other
Isaiah Foster
its in their pisscord
Luis Ramirez
link to their shit fit?
Grayson Sanders
aww damn, I'm not putting that much effort into them
Kevin Clark
did those remaining 5-6 WIPs make it in time?
Andrew Torres
honestly from the reaction, it really is all Idol. I'm pretty convinced that even if this was a all vanilla SMW hack with no text boxes, it'd still not pass moderation there, because Idol is an admin and has an extreme phobia of this site.
I still want you to submit it when it's done, I really want to see the seeth/cringe in the hack removal log. This could generate a waifus tier shitpost, it'd be great
Carson Peterson
its not worth it, just the same tired shit you hear about Zig Forums everywhere, buttmad about people saying 'faggot' and 'nigger' and stuff im glad this hack is looking amazing so far, we can show those dumb neo-jump fudgepackers they're not the only ones who can do this stuff
Chase Jones
Does this hack have a subtitle
Lucas Cook
I'm so glad I made that level last minute. It HAD to be in.
i second this. I definitely wanna have their shit fit on the site. But you're right, no matter what even without any text boxes or level names they wouldn't let this hack through.
Logan Garcia
'Moot Point' That level looks awesome, I'm glad you managed to get it together. I'm looking forward to testing it out when I find some time this weekend
Okay I have an idea for the soijak boss fight. It would be a big boo, but there would be a homing X that chases you around and occasionally shoots those surround bullet bills. Problem is I have no idea how to do that
i was right it definitely wasn't worth, but thanks anyways user. Even if we take that shit out they'll just find something else to bitch and moan about
Daniel Ross
Even if this doesn't get too much exposure, I'm proud of all of you.
For better or worse I'm kind of expecting that to be the "release version" anyways. A lot of people here are excited to potentially see YT vids or twitch streams of Zig Forumsorld 2, and despite everything the level name of Newfag Fields really seems to be the single thing that would prevent that from happening. I don't think anyone here would be surprised if OP ultimately changed it to Newfriend Fields before release, mostly because that potential change has come up nearly a dozen times in these threads.
It does have the fun bonus of REALLY making the SMWC staff squirm though. I can't wait to see what hoops they'll jump through to make sure that a hack that's ten times the quality of an average hack on SMWC doesn't get through moderation.
Kayden Cox
my submission wasn't in their either, don't worry there's still plenty of threads to get your glory faggot
