GCN Super Mario Pipework (Rom Hack) Release

[Alex S]

hello everyone, today I am releasing a demo for an in progress rom hack I am making for mario sunshine called
Super Mario Pipework!

This Is Planned to be a Full Rom Hack with over 8 Different stages to play in! i will be releasing demos regularly as the hack progresses.
ATM this is a VERY early demo release and will be updated as new builds come out! I will try to keep this thread fairly simplistic as my previous ones people had complained pretty heavily about. I will mention i could not have done any of this without the help of those from the Sunshine Hut Discord Server! Click here to check them out!!

Cross Platform Server for World Development both VRChat Related and Hack : https://discord.gg/pxkvTQ7j4j

THIS PROJECT NOW HAS A VRCHAT VERSION! YOU CAN CHECK IT OUT HERE:
https://vrchat.com/home/launch?worldId=wrld_0a5d8d5a-8f5c-470a-bb22-65f570f51adf

KEEP IN MIND THE DEMOS WILL BE RELEASED ASAP SO THERE WILL BE BUGS!
Below is a list of the current issues..​

• Ninendont is no longer supported due to issues in how it accesses memory cards, and fix94 has abandoned the scene. i refuse to waste more time trying to get it to work. console compatibility is swiss only now.
• Music replacement only works on dolphin atm so it has been removed in level 3 until it is working again. However the original link for 1.4.2 will remain up.
• Level 2 pyramid has a collision issue on the left side of the entrance. I'm unsure why it happens or how to fix it.
• some textures may look strange or be wrong textures because this is early demo and not everything is polished yet. I will fix these as I make more releases.​

ALSO I WILL NOT EVER DISTRIBUTE THIS HACK AS A .ISO, IT WILL ONLY BE IN A LEGAL ROM PATCH FORMAT SUCH AS XDELTA.

This'll be fun to check out!

Would love to play this...

Some issues though, as I look at the spoiler images, you should fix some of your textures as they don't allow to define (recognize properly) the building forms and are a bit confusing at sight.

Do you think it runs on Original Hardware? if you dont know you mind if i test it out?

the answer is complicated on this. yes it runs on real hardware with swiss, but nintendont will crash and burn on file select because of how fix94 made virtual memory cards. i cant fix it and he wont respond to me about it so it only works on real gamecube or nintendont if you try to take out the sd card once the game is loaded. its all i can do since people just dont want to help me figure out a way around it.
