(Sorry for missing the o)

Hmm, you're right. Probably because you need to increase the border on the whole thing. You're using Photoshop, right? There should be a way to extend the shadow's length.

Lulz, 'font'.
We edit the image using some tool, like Photoshop.

ITs cool you guys are thinking ahead but maybe you should wait for this to be released first.

BTW:
Will there be a 64bit edition? (not really important i can always use my (crappy)laptop)

Keep it up !
A 64-bit OS can run 32-bit programs dude. The flash plug-in for example is only 32-bit.
i know that but will there be a 64bit version?

I'm amazed at how much you guys managed to make in such a short notice. I do have some questions, though:

-Any idea on how the rotating figures systems works? (The platforms from 1-1 and 1-6, for example)

-Could you simply make a path editor program instead of a fullblown overworld editor? It seems like that would be easier for you folks.

-How much is left to do before the first release? If you don't want to tell, could you at least give an approximative percentage of how much you have done?

Well, that's practically all I can think of asking right now. Seeing how quick you guys made this, I can hopefully except a close release... I can, right?

I'm not sure if you guys can tell by now... but people are starting to get PRETTY EXCITED about your program!

A little question to the dev team. Are we restricted to the number of "areas" nintendo gave per level ?
Good question... As of right now, we don't have such a feature, but theoretically, it should work. I know I have a 01-01.arc with 3 areas, but that's only because I took 01-03.arc and simply copied it...

I assume it will be done at some point, but testing in that area hasn't been touched on much yet. There are a few other things we're dealing with here before we can start looking into that.

Yup, it's amazing! If this is easy to use (and it looks like it is easy), this could mean endless NSMB!

-The rotating hills from 1-1, 1-6 and various other levels are documented as such:
CODE212 = Rotating Hill
;Sprite Data: 00 00 NN WZ FF SD 00 00 00 00
N = Index
W = Width of hill (bigger W = wider hill)
Z = Z order of hill (biggest value overlaps the rest)
F = Flag Byte?
S = Speed
D = Direction; 0 = Counter-clockwise, 1 = Clockwise
The F byte is the only one we haven't documented fully.

-It turns out the overworlds are one big 3D model so to edit those we will need to figure out a way to export and import them. You'll most likely need an external program to build them. As for pathing them, I have no clue how that would work. For the time being, expect to be limited by the current overworld maps.

-I'm not the developer so I can't say how much is left to do.

Hey FirePhoenix, would it be possible for you to share the .arc file of the remake of 1-1 (NES game) so I can scrub it in and check it out while I wait for Reggie!? (sorry if you're not the one who made this...I'm not exactly sure who that was)

will Reggie! be able to utilize the "maze" feature where you have to choose the correct path to move on (this would be handy for remaking 8-4 of the NES game)

Right now, yes, but I plan to include a tool to modify the number of areas in the final release.

We have some of the stuff figured out, but not everything. It will be documented and editable though!

Sadly, it wouldn't be much easier, since paths are still part of the 3D model.

No promises, I don't want to get peoples' hopes up. I'm pretty busy with other things so I can't always make Reggie my main priority, as much as I'd like to.

Ok... so what about the hidden pipes that you sometimes find within the rotating hills? Which object is that?
Hills with pipes are a different type from the normal hills.

Oh, but say, could it be released this month, or is it impossible?
