Um Daisy always had her dress yellow and white in the GameBoy era? Why red?

You'd have to ask whoever made the "Mario Land Colorized" hack.

Red dress girl is Pauline.
Sorry but our princess is in another castle!

Hi I posted before about the toy mario zone, and its been a little while but I looked more and noticed on the big toy mario the eyebrows and the line around the M on the big toy mario cap is a lighter black too - small things but something that caught my eye nonetheless

looking at previous versions the 1.0 version has the little mario dark and the big toy mario light, and I have to say I personally think that is a better visual aesthetic combination there

Any chance to restore compatibility with 3ds virtual console injection?

caninis · « **Reply #504 on:** July 26, 2018, 04:51:17 am »

like the new randomizer compatibility, playing around with it adds a new take on the game

also here are pics to clarify my prior post and see side by side, you can see the line around the M on the big toy mario has been a peculiarity in 1.0 to current - 1.0 is the picture on the left and I think that lighter background contrast to character is the more consistent and preferred visual combination

I'm pretty sure it is compatible

Well, this is subjective. I may touch it a bit in the future, but I can't promise anything.

Believe it or not, there is still something that needs to be fixed!

Shameless plug time: I reviewed SML2DX on my YouTube channel.

It was recorded with an older version (info in the description). Good job!

I struggled a bit to understand it, but some explanation could be good.
To explain what I got out of it, if you are small space-suit Mario and get an item from the bonus machine, the colour palette of the suit gets messed up once the new sprite hits, is this correct?
Does it also happen with regular Mario or any other power-up Mario when he gets a different power up?

Eggplantus · « **Reply #509 on:** July 29, 2018, 05:19:53 pm »

All forms other than Space Fire Mario. And it's when you enter the bonus stage from Space Zone 1, not when you get a power-up.

For some reason I keep looking back at this

I think it's the differently shaded eyebrows in the new version.

While the atmospheric perspective of the original does look a bit better imo (the player sprite pops), I can understand toruzz sticking with the newer incarnation. But those eyebrows...

toruzz · « **Reply #511 on:** July 31, 2018, 07:42:31 am »

@Psyklax Cool, thank you!

@Eggplantus Thanks for the report! I'll fix it.

@lastdual & @caninis I think those eyebrows are just an oversight on my end, since it's not so obvious in the emulator I use. I'll fix it.

Geoshi · « **Reply #512 on:** August 03, 2018, 11:31:25 pm »

The contrast on Toy Mario's shading on that cap looks way too bright.
It looks really flat.

Hey guys.

At first I want so say thank you for the great work with this hack.

I have a question. Is it possible to play this game on the EverDrive GBA x5 with the GBC emulator on a Gamecube - Gameboy Player?

Sure, you can use one of these too if you've got a SNES->GC adapter.

Thank you man. Would love to have one of those controllers but I'm using a PS1 Controller for the GB Player.

Minor graphical bug I've observed. Three pixels of Small Wario's left sleeve are transparent on this frame. Orientation changes I believe depending on what direction Wario is facing when defeated. In my case, he was facing left.

That's just the 10 sprites per scanline limit on the GameBoy. I've layered the sprites the best way I could to avoid this kind of artifacts, but you can still find those in a couple of places - e.g. Sewer Rat's eyeball.

frozenLake · « **Reply #518 on:** October 28, 2018, 03:26:16 pm »

So, considering the first post mentions documenting of code, I have to ask: where is this documented code?

Shade Aurion · « **Reply #519 on:** October 29, 2018, 02:58:28 pm »

This looks great Toruzz and I consider it pretty damn complete. I'll be doing a Lets Play of this down the line (there is a pretty hefty list to get through first)to showcase your hardwork. You should be very proud.

Looking forward to your other hacks when and if they come to light too. You do such stellar work <3
