In this video I look into how Super Mario Bros. Wonder's badges and badge challenge levels work internally, and how we can modify them using this knowledge.

A level that starts you out with no badge but has alternate/secret routes that equip you with certain badges could be really cool. Either for various challenges or maybe a metroidvania-style level

@signal_beam 7 ай бұрын

Ooh, nice! It could also require specific badges in the main area to be able to reach other badges until you finally have the badge that's required to reach the flag!

As a software engineer myself, the developers have gone above and beyond what is required to make a game. They 100% went with the mentality of Convention over configuration. This certainly opens up the door for popping out new games with little programming effort, and maybe even a Mario Wonder Maker game.

Can someone make Badge Challenges for all the badges that don't have Badge Challenges? Badge Challenge: Fast Dash (Jump over large gaps and chase the talking flowers for the 10-coins) Badge Challenge: Timed High Jump (Similar to Badge Challenge: Floating High Jump) Powerup Challenge: Elephant (Jump and climb on single blocks, dig a path upwards through bricks, bring water from the start to the end for a 10-coin) Powerup Challenge: Fire (Hit distant targets with bouncing fireballs) Powerup Challenge: Bubble (Climb to the top by jumping off bubbles) Powerup Challenge: Drill (Sneak past enemies and cling to ceilings) Badge Challenge: Safety Bounce (Bounce on lava to reach the top) Badge Challenge: Sensor (Search Party: An Empty Park? with Sensor Badge) Badge Challenge: Rhythm Jump (More difficult version of Ninji Jump Party) Badge Challenge: ! Blocks (A level made entirely out of ! blocks) Coins Galore 2 (Defeat enemies with Coin Reward badge) Coins Galore 3 (Use the coin magnet to grab coins from afar) WONDER? (Showcases almost every sound effect that is changed by the Sound Off? badge)

It's impressive to see games nowadays being built with self-documented text files that are so easy to modify. You would assume that Nintendo, being the anti-piracy company it is, would rather use a highly obfuscated and encrypted format for the final release precisely to hinder modding - it's an interesting surprise to see their internal development teams opting not to make their own lives harder

@Rimea 8 ай бұрын

Yes and no; I don't go into in this video but all these config files are compressed using a proprietary format that Nintendo uses for many of its games. The only reason they're so easy to edit right out of the gate is that modders have had years to develop tools to access and edit these files.

to have a bonus room with a badge that unequips it afterwards, maybe exiting the bonus room drops you into another room with different pipes, each with a badge sign by it, and each leads you to a room that just drops you to the main level again, but that room equips the badge from the pipe bam, not a stupidly messy solution at all

I've got a topic I'm curious about: End-of-Level photos. When you beat a level, it shows a snapshot from the level. So three questions: 1. Does it actually screenshot the level, or show something similar they've previously stored? I'd assume the former. 2. What does it use to determine when to do the snapshot? 3. Can you make it show a different picture from what should normally appear, e.g. the title screen?

@Rimea 8 ай бұрын

1. it is a proper in-game screenshot since I've never noticed anything looking off when playing with mods, which would probably happen if some aspect of the picture was pre-rendered or whatever 2. I haven't looked into this one too much, but I have seen some stuff that indicates every level might have a different variable that can trigger a potential photo point, like jumping on a specific enemy or collecting something 3. The screenshot must be saved in the game's save data, so if an editor were made for that I'd presume it would be possible to swap out the picture, though I don't really see the point of that

So far I’ve been watching you and been super excited to watch the modding progress but I’ve noticed you’re only editing and essentially replacing existing things in the game. Is there anyway to add new stuff yet? For example a completely new character instead of editing an old one

@Rimea 8 ай бұрын

modding almost always comes down to replacing rather than adding, the way games are built and systems are intertwined makes it very hard to add something as complicated as a new player

@pocketpc_ 8 ай бұрын

Adding new content is WAY harder than changing existing content, especially in a proprietary engine like what Nintendo uses. Most games that have significant modding communities where new content can be added either use an off-the-shelf engine with readily available tooling (Unity, Unreal, Source, etc.) or have official modding support (Skyrim, Factorio, etc.). There are a few outliers that have been reverse-engineered to the point that they can be fully modified with no official support or tooling (Minecraft Java Edition being the prime example), but this is pretty rare. Super Mario Wonder could eventually reach that point given its popularity and the sheer potential for modded content, but it's going to take years of concerted effort by the modding community to get there.
