Seeing as though the ROM hack has had a sudden leap in development, these are some other ideas.

1. Beta Archive-inspired things. I know the channel is dead but the story is unfinished. What would the earliest build of Super Mario 64, specifically before the Summer '95 build.

2. Youtube channel. We could all have a youtube channel for the rom hack, posting footage of the hack and updates. Of course, this doesn't have to happen straight away as much more development has to happen.

3. A real life story inside the game. Ok so hear me out here. The player is playing the game as normal, until there developer note in one of the signs. There are more signs throughout the game as a conversation between two developers and friends. The game soon tears their friendship apart and one of them becomes angry and frustrated after the developer is put under pressure from the game. The final sign before the last Bowser battle reveals a real twist to the story. This was sort of inspired by SM64BA's Wing Cap Tower GUI ending with 'But it's all your fault'.

4. Hidden Floor: Behind one of the level-less paintings, there could be a door to a fourth-floor-esque area named the Hidden Floor. No idea what could be there but it could be an early third floor.

5. Music. Not really a plan but a question to Quiot Riot, the composer of the hack. Will the music use a SM64 Soundfont?

Also, these are the levels in each floor

First Floor

• Rocky Mountain

• Fire Bubble

• Snow Slide

• Water Land

• Koopa's Battle 1

Courtyard (Need 3 Stars to get in)

• Ghostly House

• Secret Slide (First Floor Slide but Betafied)

Basement (Need Koopa's Battle 1 key)

• River Mountain

• Sand Valley

• Deep Jungle (New Level)

• The Fortress (based on scrapped Castle level)

• Koopa's Battle 2

Second Basement (Need Koopa's Battle 2 key)

• Flooded Land

• Cavern Land (HMC)

• Luigi's Cascade

• Ghostly Forest

• Winter Tower (Chroma Tundra)

Second Floor (the key to the second floor is in Winter Tower which serves as a boss battle).

• Waterfall Land (TTM)

• Sky Temple

• Pirate Ship Land (New level)

• Clockwork Tower (TTC)

• Koopa's Battle 3

Hidden Floor (Hidden behind a level-less painting on Second Floor)

• Eternal Fort (same name)

• The Rabbit Hole (Mips' Hole)

Plus, I can't decide on the name of beta Bob-omb Battlefield. Which one:

• Lake Mountain

• River Mountain

• River Valley

• Lake Valley

• Other

May 95 has barely been developed, but I think these plans should stay in development.

1: Floors. I got inspired by gamma64 for these. Ground floor, basement, 2nd basement, and 2nd floor. Ground floor will basically be the ground floor from the beta. Nothing special. The basement will look very similar to gamma64's basement. And have unique levels. Second basement will be in a U shape with a door with steps leading to it. 2nd floor will look like a betafied final 2nd floor.

2: Stages. I plan to have some of the usual ones (snow mountain, river valley, rocky mountain, etc), But I really want some unique stages, with names like "Sky water fall", "Sand Valley", etc. So yes, may 95 will be kinda like gamma64.

3: Courtyard. I feel like a hidden level should be in the Castle courtyard. We can probably make a different castle courtyard, with a beta feeling still in there.

Minor things:

When mario spawns in a course, he should have blue particles instead of yellow particles.

Mario's shading should be a smidge darker.

The castle's message when you go into it can be removed.

And that's all that I feel like should be in may 95. This project is not far into development yet, so these things could change.

This is the first HUD test.

Does anyone remember Stanley?

I want to write a article about how if you believe that Luigi "will be real" if 2401 then the Ai will add him. Like what ever you believe the Luigi unlock conditions to be than it will be that because the Ai puts it into the game. like if Luigi would be unlocked if you collected 2,401 coins then he would because the AI would make it so. maybe you could even cheese the AI by thinking your mind I have to jump to unlock Luigi that's what l is real 2401 means and then he would be unlocked. That seems interesting.

What happened here?

Who wants me to research the 07/29/1995 build?

These are photos from an extremely early beta of Super Mario 64. They predate the B-roll build and even the Summer '95 build. I have named it the 'TEMPORARY Build' It is dated around March or April 1995.

Photo 1 is a scan of the build's label. Photos 2 and 4 are in the Castle Courtyard and Photo 3 is in a possibly scrapped level.

So.. SM64BA is dead. The 'Summer '95 Build' video uploaded by them included a Wing Cap Tower segment which Marionova64 created which was used without permission. The entire channel is dead and everyone on twitter has been saying what they contributed to SM64BA. Like SMFX, it's dead...

If Greenio gives up on their work, then this is over...

I wanna know if I should change anything and what I should do differently for my next page. (Maybe I was too vague? I feel like that works at the page's advantage honestly but I dunno if it should be a consistent thing moving forward.) I tried to follow Ven's advice he said in the Discord server at some point about not having a concrete mission list and instead being like "reports often say this". I'm also open to general page ideas as well. I want to actually make some good course pages now that I got some decent practice from Titanic Train and right the wrongs of the course fanon era I accidentally caused. (I know I made a small mention of a "Thorny Thwomp's Swamp" once when someone asked for people's favorite sm64 courses just because I couldn't resist the opportunity to make something up, so I might do that.) Speaking of the course fanon era, I might re-do some of them (I know I wanna rewrite Hot-Moist Void after it got into 2 ROM hacks. Probably with a different name.)

That got kinda offtopic near the end but yeah.

So, you guys know about Denchick? If you don't, he's just you're average slightly controversial (I think) idiot.

And then there was this admin named Postman who I know nothing about.

Apparently Postman gave Denchick admin and then the server just got wiped in it's entirety because Denchick "was bored".

The server's fine now though.

Title.
