Layout by LDA during C3.
Boss 7 is completed.
I thought the HUB would be like all over the game and is supposed to be a save spot?
I am able to check in the checkboxes for some reason.
Check out my music!

Yes, but if your refresh the page, they will no longer be there. You will be unable to change them unless you can edit my post.

As for the hub, its never been "officially" decided on.

It's worth to note that some graphics and background need to made and/or finalized.

Just posting some stuff:

Levels in need of a background (I took out some that already has background, just needs to be inserted/finished):

Originally posted by MrDeePay

Girder Grasslands - Miney made one. Hasn't been accepted/inserted.
Switch Scamper - See Girder Grasslands
Countdown Chamber - Foops Switch Palace/Bonus BG can cover the Switch Palace portion

Manic Mine - Needs Layer 3 BG. End needs BG added.
Briar Mire - Castle sections may need Layer 3 BG.

Kourai Crevice - BG could be touched up.
Tourou Temple - Boat segment needs Layer 3 BG.

Beach Ball Brawl - Wave segment needs Layer 3 BG.
Hydrostatic Halt - Dry segment needs Layer 3 BG.

Crumbling Catacombs - Start and end needs redrawn desert BG. May need layer 3 BG. (Frostflow Freezer's Cavern maybe?)
Digsite Dangers - See Cumbling Catacombs.
Jewel Jubilation - See Crumbling Catacombs.

Coaster Calamity - Potential BG in progress by 2Dareduck.
Balloon Bonanza - Could possibly use Carnival Capers' BG.
Playground Bound - See Coaster Calamity
Fantastic Elastic - I'm not SNN.

Aerotastic Assault - I've said stuff about this BG already recently. (That being the BG's pixelation needs to be smoothed out.)
Radiatic Ruins - I assume Ludus will make it eventually.
Artillery Auberge - Needs Layer 3 Blimbs BG.
Dangling Danger - See Aerotastic Assault.
Stratus Skyworks - See Aerotastic Assault, but this could (hopefully) use a different palette for the BG.
Cloud Caverns - Could use a Layer 3 sky BG, or just add SMW's stars into the level itself.
Stormy Citadel - I could probably find a few decent ones available.

Lava Lift Lair - I de-prioritized constructing the volcano BG for now. Could possibly use a redraw, but Ludus' could be used if he compressed the BIN files he used for it down to a couple at most. Cavern section needs a Layer 3 BG.
Volcanic Panic - See Lava Lift Lair, minus the cave.
Smoldering Shrine - Ask DragonPhoenix about this, I forgot the immediate details. He did seem to like the firey temple BG for the underground section, though.
Ice-Floe Inferno - Using MGH's fire/ice BG could be a fitting substitute.

Rusted Retribution - Layer 2 segments needs a Layer 3 BG. Rest of the level need to maintain the consistency the main room has.
Synchronized Sector - Could possibly use Petroleum Passage's BG as a Layer 3, or Layer 2 if the lighting effect the level has is just removed. Either that or move the light shine to being a Layer 3 BG.
Myrkka Mainline - Needs Layer 3 BG that SCORPION proposed interest in, but I haven't heard anything from him on that yet.

Asteroid Antics - I'll have to get back to you on this.
EREHS EHT REAF - Ask Rameau about that.



Graphics:

Originally posted by Rameau's Nephew
As far as graphics go, sometime in the past, some months ago, it was agreed that some of the global sprite graphics needed to be redone, including:

- The Rexes
- The Venus Fire Traps
- The Dry Bones and Bony Beetle
- The Cheep-Cheep
- The Blurp (looks fine in principle, but is actually taken from Mario's Lost World; honestly, I think it'd be fine if this and the Cheep-Cheep used the same graphics, just with different colors)
- The Spiny
- The Volcano Lotus

Also, some custom sprites still need graphics in the style of this hack, including:

- The Bros.
- The Panser
- The Nipper Plants
- The Grey Snifit
- The Butes (made to look like Samurai)
- The Fire Chomp, if it's still being used.

We also still need rather a number of backgrounds, including a girdery grassland (Mineyl had made significant progress on one of these, but alas, he took its secrets to the grave with him) and at least one more factory BG.


- The Mario
- The Luigi (isn't a priority; he might be kicked out of the hack in the end. But I am working on Luigi-fying the Mario graphics)

I, by the by, am working on the Rex and Snifit too.


- The Micro Goomba
- The Fire Snake
- The Spike Top

The first two of which I am finishing now.

Are we still using Luigi or what?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Also, to fix most of the Mario levels' palettes:

So I am working on Luigi-fying the Mario graphics again since I'm done with my level.

With this, I noticed something very peculiar and is really confusing me: throughout the whole hack, Mario has two different main palettes:

Original Palette, used in the base palette:


And the custom Mario Palette:


So, I am really confused and this probably was never noticed beforehand.

Also, is this another consistency issue? D:
What about the final battle against Norveg, and the rest of Final Factory?

Not 100% sure if it's noteworthy or not or even if it's been done but as far as I know, a few songs still remain uninstered (including the updated reef map)

And there's the extremely inconsistent loudness of each songs - though, this is out of our hands.
I'm pretty sure the Buzzy Beetles ARE redrawn..

As for the others, can someone post reference pictures?
I have no idea what levels use them, and don't know their dimensions etc off the top of my head.
Your layout has been removed.

I should have something witty to put here (even if it's just to update dated info), shouldn't I?

They look closer to a re-shade of the original, if anything.

I'd like to take this opportunity to ask if Level 105 Ice-Floe Inferno has a background added to it. Thanks.

No it doesn't, and the way the level is set up internally, giving it one will be tricky.

Did he ever post the files for the updated FG/BG? If not, we'll need to manually rip them (or fire him a PM).
Oh yeah:

In need of Background:
Floral Fears

Needs to be updated/replaced:
EREHPS EHT RAEF Luigi
Digsite Dangers Toad

B (finally) and 103 (FINALLY) can be checked off now. So can TRUNTOR (W1 boss) after some fine-tuning.

Managed to cut the IPS down from 3057 KB to 3041 KB after applying a global GetDrawInfo patch (which, truth be told, was already applied, but none of the sprites pointed to that location). Fun way to spend an afternoon.

The next step is SubOffScreen, which looks like it'll save us the same, if not more. I'll probably wait until tomorrow on that one though - what I've done today is enough.

Updated the list with a few more things. Same as always, let me know if I forgot something
