Golden Yoshi's SMW2+2 Released
As promised, I'm stealing the post in this news to tell everyone to play this hack. It is ******* awesome and has been long awaited since SMW2+. After nearly a year of working on this, Golden Yoshi has produced a piece of art that easily exceeds his first one. It has been an honour supporting and testing this hack throughout the process.
Hats off to you GoYo. This is absolutely beautiful.

Well, after over a year of work on this hack, it's finally ready!
I'm happy to now have the first and third complete Yoshi's Island hacks
. If you want to be technical, it is the second complete hack, since S.N.N. left out some of the Extra levels in his hack:P. But whatever the case, here is the hack:
DownloadIn case you were wondering what the hack features:
- 50 all-new levels of classic Yoshi's Island design! Journey through 5 worlds to reunite Baby Mario with Baby Luigi.
- Now unlock an Extra and a Secret level by scoring 100% on each world!
- Enhanced Yoshi colors! Every Yoshi now has its own boot colors, as seen in the introduction scene. Plus, two new Yoshi colors, gray and black, for the Extra and Secret levels.
- Pit of 50 Trials, inspired by the Pit of 100 Trials in the Paper Mario series. How many floors can you beat? And what will you win?
- Custom level icons
Here are some previous screens. Note they are outdated as the Yoshi colors have been enhanced.
New map screen icons
4-7: Let Go Of My Babies!
5-2: Fish With Big Appetites
And the rest of the screens can be viewed here:
www.freewebs.com/goldenyoshi/smw22.htmOf course, please remember you must patch the .ips to
v1.0 (U) of the ROM. If you patch it to the wrong version, you will likely get the following errors:
1. The message box border in the introduction scene will be glitched
2. When you get to the "Welcome Back To Yoshi's Island" screen, it will freeze.
If this happens, please double-check to see if you have the right version. Please refrain from posting such error in the thread, as usually the first several replies when I release a YI hack are "It doesn't work." If you still have trouble, drop me a PM and I can help in any way I can
.
That as all. Last but not least, here are my Special Thanks:
Mattrizzle: I have to give the most thanks to Mattrizzle for all the hard work and effort he has put into the hack. Not only did he lend his artistic skills by creating custom level icons and title screen graphics, but he was also a huge help in finding important offsets to make some cool tweaks for the hack. Thanks for everything!
S.N.N.: He's been a huge supporter of the hack and has given great, inspirational feedback. Thanks for all your help and support, it's very much appreciated.
fabio: He has also played through and tested the hack and has been a great tester
.
Squash Monster: Of course, this hack would never be possible if it weren't EggVine, for which I will be thankful to Squash Monster for. Haven't talked to him in a while, but his editor made this hack entirely possible.
MiOr/Romi: He only recently started to help me out, but he was able to find some fixes to various major and minor issues, and has helped me assure that the hack is virtually bug-free. He has also tested the hack, so all his help is much appreciated.
That's it. Have fun, and may The Chosen One watch over you all.
Anyway, I MUST ask GoYo before hosting SMW2+2 on my webpage.Approved request from GoYo
I have to upload the file untouched onto my site this Monday because I am still working on SMB Utility that allows SMB2J Items.
