SMA2 DX Improvement hack for the GBA Version of SMW is finished

SMA2 DX is a improvement hack for Super Mario Advance 2, the GBA re-release of Super Mario World.

It contains various bug fixes (for bgs that already existed in the SNES version as well as GBA version exclusive bugs) and improvements. Several bug fixes that were already available for the SNES version have been ported to the GBA version for this hack.

This hack contains the following changes:

• Mushrooms no longer overwrite flowers and capes in the inventory.

• It is possible to reset checkpoints by save&quit the game.

• ?-Blocks that contain a Yoshi or a directional coin now properly respawn when reentering a sublevel with a pipe or a door and return.

• Iggy uses his hair during his boss fight instead of Larry’s.

• Yoshi’s bongos no longer play in levels with the bonus theme when Mario/Luigi is not riding him.

• Fixed several bugs with the chucks.

• Fixed several bugs with the colors of the Yoshis in the overworld.

• and much more.

The github repository contains a full changelog as well as the source code of this hack for free use. This hack does not come with a color restoration, because it is compatible with Asaki’s color restoration mod. It is also compatible with Weario’s instrument restoration mod and JY’s All-Stars + World Luigi in Super Mario Advance 2 mod.

This hack is currently only available for the european version of SMA2.
