Hi, i have just joined this site since i need help.

I have started my personal nsmbds hack. Actually it's over 2 years since i have began it.

I didn't gave it a name yet, but i have already done some basic ASM hacking (via hex editor), create few levels ( only about 7 originals, the others are just some slight modification of pre-existing levels), and change some of the music (the music are from other hacks and almost all of them are placeholders, so i will replace them now that i learned how to work with midi's and all that stuff).

The world themes will be theese ones:

World 1: mushroom kingdom
World 2: desert ruins
World 3: sunny islands
World 4: strange forest (it's inspired by NSMBU so half normal, half haunted)
World 5: Ice land
World 6: mighty mountains (half of the levels will be mountain ambiented, the other half sky themed)
World 7: Rainbow galaxy (the only locked world, unlockable only after you have collected all star coins and finished the game)
World 8: Bowser's lava canyon

all of this names are beta and i'll may change them in the future.

Another thing is that i have hacked an EUROPEAN rom of NSMBDS because i am italian and i want my game to be understanded also by my friends wich are no good at English.

So to recap i need some persons to help me at: Music hacking(for getting the midi's since i don't know how to get some of them), Other ASM hacking, Textures edit, Background edit, sprite editing and other little things.

I am only 16 years old, i am italian so my english understandment, speaking and writing is not the best and i dont know a lot about hacking.

Thank you for reading, if some of you can help me and you want some more information let me konw.

Okay... I can't help you because i have other projects intstead and i started to learn C++, i can say to you that is better hacking the USA roms because is more easy to hack it with NSMBeditor. Also, im italian too lol... and i can say that is really rare to find clean roms that have Italian language instead of english, US rom is the best choise!

You can also find some tutorials on this forums on how import midis files into NSMB, if you want to import WAV files, you can use this tutorial instead! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4-Mzf53RnQ (but isn't really easy

thank you anyways for the reply! The rom that i am hacking is a copy of the backup of my own nsmbds cartridge, i didn't had too much problems so far (apart from some more elaborate asm hacking patches that don't apply because they're for american roms), the main problem with music is not that i don't know how to loop, convert and put in the game, the real problem is getting the midi themeselves! I don't know how to get them...
Anyway i did succesfully put 2 songs in new super mario bros ds: here's the firts one: https://youtu.be/qoKvkJxYvM8

i will upload the second one soon

Just a thing: Why u play with an android emulator? Is literally better if you play with desmume DS on the computer, with the R4 (or other pirate cards) on the DS or with Twilight Menu++ on the DSi! (if you want to hack your nintendo DSi, here you are guide https://dsi.cfw.guide/

My pc isn't powerful enough for run ds games, i have tried to adjust some settings, but i didn't have any luck even with the latest version. The games runs so slow that it's unplayable, i have tried other emulators but the result is pretty much the same.
I do have a R4GOLD wich i use on my ds lite (infact, every time i update the game, i put it on the flashcart and then test it on real hardware, so this hack WILL BE FULLY COMPATIBLE WITH A REAL DS/DSI/3DS) but i don't record from it since i haven't a capture card and i don't want crappy video and audio in my recordings. I don't have a dsi (althought i will buy one soon if is cheap), i do have a firts model 3ds but, again, it doesn't have any capture card. So recording from my phone in my case is the best option since here the game runs perfect and i can record the audio internally so it will be clean and good quality. Usually i connect an external controller, but at the time i made the video, i didn't bother connecting it since i just wanted to record the music itself. Aniway tell me if you think that the music in that video sounded nice.

PS: For the name of the hack i was considering 2 options:
1) New Super Mario Bros DS italian version
2) Another super mario bros ds hack

New super mario bros italian version is like... BRUH! That name means "just a new super mario bros DS rom with italian translate" but it have more content so, is not really good as a name. In my opinion, you can call it "Project JANSMBH" (Just Another New Super Mario Bros Hack)


EDIT: Here you are a tutorial on music hacking: https://nsmbhd.net/thread/4507-updated-music-hacking-guide-for-new-super-mario-bros-tutorial/

yeah! you're right! i like your advice, i will call it like you have writed! I will keep you update in this chat when i upload new videos of my levels

EDIT: One of the problems that i have constantly tought is that some time the editor doens't replace the sound data. I don't know why this occours, but sometimes it does that.

He is right, in some EUR roms, the levels do not appear, neither the backgrounds, nor the tilesets of the ground.

In my case, luckily, i am able to edit the levels, titleset and backgrounds fine. Basically the only issues are 2: firts one is that the music limits patch does not apply(i think because it's for usa roms) and sometimes even tought i replace the file it does not replace (it does that randomly)

here's the error that appears when i try to apply the patch:


make[1]: /home/krisgames4: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** No rule to make target '/home/Krisgames4/'. Stop.
make: *** [Makefile:122: build] Error 2

Okay, first thing, all of ASM hacks that you find on this website are ONLY for USA roms, they can work on EUR roms, but rarely. Also, if you want to add image to your message, you must upload for first the image in NSMBHD's uploader: https://nsmbhd.net/uploader/, and after u must add the link of the image that you upload between the image brackets. Also, i don't understand the ASM error, but you can find some tutorials on how to import ASM Hacks into NSMB in this forum!

Hi there! Today i have upload on my channel a GBA Rainbow Road ds remix! I will probably use it in the world 7: rainbow galaxy! Since this world will have 4 rainbow roads courses! (the firts one will beinspired from Super mario kart in place of the ghost house, the second in place of the tower will be inspired from the Gba one, the third one in place of 7 - 5 will be inspired from the gcn rainbow road and finally the fourth one in place of the castle will be inspired from the N64 Rainbow Road in MK8 Style!)
Tell me if you think that it sounds good!
