Custom Powerups v3.4.4

I NO LONGER OFFER SUPPORT FOR THIS PATCH, PLEASE DO NOT MESSAGE ME ABOUT IT

HOW TO INSTALL: CLICK HERE

A bunch of fixes.

Notable changes:

• A bunch of small fixes.

This needs to be applied to a CLEAN SMW (USA) ROM. You could try to patch it over a previous version, but this is not supported and wasn't tested at all.

NOTE: Some QoL changes affected how some powerups work since v3.4.2, it may break some of your levels if you relied on how these powerups worked before!

NOTE: Compatibility with SA-1 1.40 is unknown. The powerups patch was released a while ago and SA-1 is very recent.

The included .exe file might be reported as a virus by your antivirus. I have no idea how to solve this nor I care enough to remove that false positive. Use the python script directly if you'd like to avoid that issue.

Custom Powerups v3.3.4

HOW TO INSTALL: CLICK HERE

Minor fixes and changes were added, not much exciting stuff.

Notable changes:

• Expanded compatibility with patches that require to run code during NMI.

This needs to be applied to a CLEAN SMW (USA) ROM. You can't patch it to a previous version, so porting your hack to a new, clean SMW ROM is mandatory.

This probably is going to be the last release with fixes I'll do for a while (or ever). I'm still going to listen to feedback and bugs, but don't expect much from me at this point since I'm already very happy with the results. At most I'll try to rewrite powerup_defs.asm to not be a hot mess.

BPS patches will be uploaded at some point. They're not my priority,

Custom Powerups v3.3.3

This new version of the Custom Powerups patch includes several new resources to use in your levels and some bug fixes to ensure the stability of the ASM hacks.

• Added several new blocks
• Squashed a bunch of bugs

This needs to be applied to a CLEAN SMW (USA) ROM. You can't patch it to a previous version, so porting your hack to a new, clean SMW ROM is mandatory.

I wasn't able to include graphics/textures for the new blocks due to palette limitations, so it's up to you to draw and include those in your ROMs.

This probably is going to be the last release I'll do for a while (or ever). I'm still going to listen to feedback and bugs, but don't expect much from me at this point since I'm already very happy with the results.

Custom Powerups v3.3.0 (Hotfix)

HOW TO INSTALL: CLICK HERE

Hotfix: Removed unnecessary and old GPS routines bundled with this patch.

Took me a while, but there's a new version of the patch! The patch contains some enhancements to make this whole pack of ASM files way more stable while installing and playing in game.

Notable additions:

• Separate GFX Installer
• Native Better Powerdown patch support
• Dynamic Items now work properly

This needs to be applied to a CLEAN SMW (USA) ROM. You can't patch it to a previous version, so porting your hack to a new, clean SMW ROM is mandatory.

GIEPY support was dropped. Its implementation wasn't the best and I had some questionable design choices. This decision was made before v1.1.0 was released (link) and I'll consider adding it back once people decide if it's going to be standard or not.

There are a few ips files included in this release. Some have debug features (change powerup with L/R while in the map and CPU usage meter) and others are just a blank canvas to start working in there.
