New Practice ROM Released

The 8-4 timing works now, thanks. However there now is another possibly related bug, which is not that significant but still not intended behaviour. After landing on the axe, the time was shown and mario kept running/walking, fell off the axe block to the left and got pushed through the wall below the axe as the screen scrolled. He also keeps the walking animation while usually standing while the messages appear. Screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/oN9DwJX

It only happens sometimes, I had it happen 2 out of 3 8-4 completions so far.

Hehe yeah I saw that but didnt care enough to fix it :) One of the blocks in the wall where the prince is kept is overwritten too. I'll fix it at some point :)

Woah, this is sick. Haven't gotten the chance to tinker with it yet, but reading up on the frame advance/slow motion and the IL features, it sounds amazing.

Thank you!

I finally got around to messing with this and quickly found myself in this situation, lol https://imgur.com/J3cB5Sc

it seems using the built in savestates causes a lot of palette glitches lol

Hehe yea they cause a lot of problems in general :) Did you try to load twice? Actually if it is a palette thing its probably not gonna help. Did you load across levels do you know?

Released 5.4

Features:

  • Ability to wipe SMB/LL/LL-EXT records under settings.

5.4 bug fixes:

  • When starting on a specific rule in Lost Levels the frame counter was set incorrectly, which could cause rule-deviations vs. vanilla.
  • Use the coin-sprite for sprite0 in LL (no more glitchy garbage under the coin).
  • The Save-state is no longer invalidated as you power the machine on and off.

Get it at https://pellsson.github.io/smb

EDIT: Oh, and of course, huge thanks to @goofychocobo who saved me a countless hours hunting for a ghost-bug that didn't really exist (but resulted in finding the framecounter bug mentioned above). Thank you very much <3 :)

Fixed bug with character selection at titlescreen (Updated the IPS, but did not bump version number). Thanks @threecreepio :D
