If the y-coordinate of a path animation changes between two keyframes, Mario jumps up or down to the new height. I read that in the tutorial. Is there a limit to how high (or low) Mario can jump on the worldmap? Asking because I'm currently making a concept art for W1, and I want to have Mario jump down from the W1-4 node at the top of a waterfall to the W1-5 node at the bottom, which is probably approximately ten or so times the max height Mario jumps on the vanilla worldmaps. And eh, do path anims have a max number of keyframes?

So the worldmaps can be NSMBW-styled now? Nice! I love how old posts say something's impossible and then years later, it becomes possible. I'll design my W2 map with this in mind!

But what I meant, if the height changes during a path anim, Mario jumps, right? Like in vanilla W3. In vanilla W3, Mario doesn't jump very high, so I'm wondering, can he jump 'infinitely' high from changing the y-coord of a path anim between two keyframes? And how many keyframes can a path animation maximally have?

But I indeed think my W1 map would benefit from this patch, since the waterfall is relatively high compared to the lowest point Mario can reach, which is W1-5 and W1-Castle, which will be in the water.

Yeah, there should be a new subforum called NSMB Code Modding.

BTW, with this patch, if you combine it with a hex edit to change the camera angle to a more top-down view (something that has been possible for a long time), you can make a SMB3- or SMW-styled worldmap! I think SKJmin should use this for NSMB3 v4.0. Yes, he's still working on it, and his level design has improved. He does everything to ensure his level design is never unfair, even if the player uses obscure frame-perfect glitches!

I don't think so either, since v4 is almost finished.

But we are getting a bit offtopic. So let's get back to my questions, which haven't been answered yet (I'm not mad): on the worldmap, can Mario jump higher than he does in the vanilla game? And do path animations have a limit on the amount of keyframes they can have?

First

Looks cool, only why are the particles red? No$?

Also, nvm, I'ma ask the questions from my OP on the Discord. Maybe Will knows.

For those who don't have Discord, I asked this question there too, and the answer was that there's no limit to Mario's jump height on the worldmap nor to the amount of keyframes in a path animation. Hope this helps!
