    Hacking Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Split-Screen Multiplayer

    More footage, anyone? This should help prove the split screen is indeed a useful addition, especially now that the cameras vaguely work :P IGHh80fpDRA

    Hacking Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Split-Screen Multiplayer

    It's quite the ambitious proposal, that's for sure. And I also get the sneaky suspicion that it just wouldn't be that easy to pull off, either :P We shall have to see. I think doing that would be a hell of a lot of work, however cool it would be. Maybe if we're feeling generous we'll try to...

    Hacking Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Split-Screen Multiplayer

    We're undecided yet. The first priority is to determine whether or not the game has any problems if the two characters go wandering off to different planets via launch star (i.e. does the area unload, do the objects unload, etc.). If they do unload, then Mario and Luigi will have to travel in...

    Hacking Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Split-Screen Multiplayer

    They don't know anything yet since we've not touched them, but they'll just receive the coordinates of whoever is closer on any given frame, then left to do what they usually do. There may be some exceptions if some boss battles really don't work correctly like that.

    Hacking Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Split-Screen Multiplayer

    Boss battles will work as they usually do; they'll just have Mario and Luigi present in them, able to deal damage, etc. and the boss will aim for whoever is closest to it. As for dynamic levels, we can always snap the players together if one will become permanently stuck anywhere :P And hey, we...

    Hacking Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Split-Screen Multiplayer

    Certainly with this mod, we're not going to be altering any of the levels. We're trying to imagine what Nintendo would've done if they had implemented a real multiplayer; we are definitely considering things like 'What would happen if one player spun the other, or jumped on their head, etc.'...

    Hacking Super Mario Galaxy 2.5

    You're late to the show :P I already posted about this in a new thread! By the way, hi, long time no see. - Bean :P

    Hacking Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Split-Screen Multiplayer

    I think we'll go down that route only if making the two cameras function properly proves too difficult. There's a lot of stuff that kinda gets in the way of only having one screen; for one thing, the controls become frankly bizarre if the two characters go too far apart: You get stuck running in...

    Hacking Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Split-Screen Multiplayer

    Ooh, no worries there. We're still very active on that, too! Both of these projects (Mario Kart Wii modding and SMG2 multiplayer) are getting a lot of our time these days.

    Hacking Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Split-Screen Multiplayer

    I would say "No, you prove me wrong", but this is a good opportunity. Well, first and foremost, have you ever heard of a device called the USB Gecko? It's amazingly useful, it allows you to watch and alter the RAM of the Wii on-the-fly. So that's how we got to the "sophisticated code" and...

    Hacking Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Split-Screen Multiplayer

    Not at all, sir. Pause the video at... 1:34, and check the positioning of the two starbits (right) and red bomb (left). Whichever way you look at it, they're clearly different, as the lower screen is trying to pan left. You'll also notice that the perspective in each shot is different, hence it...

    Hacking Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Split-Screen Multiplayer

    Greetings to GBAtemp, I'm a long-time lurker, not first time poster, but it's been a long time since I last made any contributions to the forums. I'm known as MrBean35000vr on YouTube and a few other places, and for the past while, me and my younger brother known as Chadderz have been working on...

    Hacking Mario Kart Wii Custom Tracks

    That's wrong! You can alter any of them values without affecting how they fit (that's why they're there ) If your track is uber-huge, increase the minimum X and Z and decrease the maximum X and Z. And if your track is too low or doesn't have enough height variations, increase the distance...

    Hacking Mario Kart Wii Custom Tracks

    Still, I hope we can one day show you something amazingly good. It would've been great to have DLC in the game, proper stuff, not just the bi-monthly tournaments (which amounts to the whole amount of... 20KB per tournament or so). I wonder if Nintendo will surprise us by releasing another Mario...

    Hacking Mario Kart Wii Custom Tracks

    Well, that's unfortunate, I think, everyone who participates in the online races that me/some friends organise usually have a blast. Nevertheless, we'll keep trying to make them better, so hopefully one day something will come along that you like. (Maybe it's just us Mario Kart nerds enjoying a...

    Hacking Mario Kart Wii Custom Tracks

    Oh sure, I get pissed at Windows. But then I look at how huge the whole thing is, and how intricate it all is, and I can get over the shortcomings. Like this, lots of work went into Windows, and coders are seriously underappreciated. I can say that without even being one myself, I've watched my...

    Hacking Mario Kart Wii Custom Tracks

    My response: Think you can do it better, do it yourself. I love people who criticise others' work when they can't do any better. I guess you don't understand the meaning of the words "early phases". Obviously all of this is not fully developed yet, don't you think there'll be better tracks out...

    Hacking Mario Kart Wii H: Hot & Juicy Details

    I suspect the way some of these tracks have been set up will result in freezes upon loading. For instance, I've never seen GBA Cheep Cheep Island ever load successfully if it's not placed at GBA Shy Guy Beach. It always freezes. Same goes for Lava Canyon (what's that doing in there anyway? It...

    Hacking Mario Kart Wii H: Hot & Juicy Details

    Wow, you won't even do the courtesy of mentioning who actually did all the hard work even now. Wish we'd written something in the readme stating that you must give us credit for taking advantage of our work. Well, so be it.

    I'm so pumped, NCAA football video game is back after a 10 year hiatus, coming to SeriesS/X, PS5 in July.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Wish they would let us play the NCAA football 14 on newer xbox, its one of the only games I love and own on disc still, that is not back compatible, bs.
  • AdenTheThird @ AdenTheThird:
    @BigOnYa My dad recently bought a spare Series X off of me, got game pass, and saw Madden '24 on Game Pass, decided to try it out.

    ...He was a bit taken aback by the 60GB download size. Poor guy's still living in the 90s!

  • AdenTheThird @ AdenTheThird:
    @K3Nv2 He was looking into consoles for his house anyway (for my younger siblings and himself) and I had a spare XSX and Switch I ended up selling him at pretty steep cuts. I would just give them to him, but I did buy them with the intent to sell them... and college is super expensive.
