Super Mario's Legend: Vacations at the Tropics - Demo 1 (fixed)
by Blind Devil

This is actually my first hack released (three times, but oh well). A short demo with 8 levels, 9 exits.
Fixed version (finally). Read the "Fixes/Changes" topic for more information.

Story:

Mario's adventure on Dinosaur Land is over. Now he, Peach and Yoshi go to a tropical archipelago to spend their vacations. Bowser's Valley has been ruined since Mario defeated him. Bowser sends Kamek to search for Mario and his friends while he and his Koopa Kids rebuild the castle and make changes to the Valley.
After a long time of search, Kamek finds Mario and his friends, and tells to Bowser. After finishing his work, Bowser sends his minions to the nearest places of that archipelago and sends Kamek to steal something from Peach's Castle while she's not there.
But Mario, with an usual adventurer spirit and some curiosity, will leave his vacation castle to explore the isles of the tropics. Mario will meet Bowser during his adventure, by chance.
(The same thing that's written on SMWC.)

Bugs, glitches and other stuff:

-In some levels, like "Shyguy's Docks", "Jungle Athletics" and "Bomb Panic", I added blocks in some level entrances to prevent glitched graphics when you enter a pipe carrying a tileset-specific sprite. It makes carried sprites disappear.
-Also in the level "Bomb Panic", I added another blocks that make the Albatosses disappear. I handled that to prevent players from breaking the level by riding an Albatoss.
-Also again in "Bomb Panic", sometimes the sprites don't show up on the first part for some unknown reason.
-The climbing nets present on some levels don't work correctly. You can climb over their top edges. I don't know the reason that this happens, but it's not related with the Map16 page.
-HDMA gets disabled each time you enter a dynamic door or dies, and also when you get out "Vacation Castle" (side exit).
-This hack may not work correctly on Snes9X and BSNES. Works better on ZSNES (especially the newer versions).

Fixes/Changes:

-Fixed the coin graphics that had a palette error.
-90% the message box texts had minor changes.
-Fixed the "Level Key Counter" of "Bomb Panic" level, it wasn't working correctly.
-Made a change in the level "Ultra Underbase". When the Thwomp break the bricks in order to make you pass to collect a red coin, and you kill him, then fall there, you may get stuck forever. So there were added spikes. Now you can kill yourself to exit, without having the need to wait the time to run out. =)
-Removed a moving spike and a Thwomp in the first part of "Ancient Castle". And also did a minor change in the second part of the same level.
-Fixed the SRAM problem, that when you delete a slot containing data, it doesn't reset some values, like lives, coins, score and powerup.
-Now the IPS works in a 512 KB SMW ROM, it no longer needs to be expanded before patching. Thanks to Zone355 and Daegon for pointing that out.
