Submission Text Full Submission Page
A TAS of a rom hack of NES Super Mario Bros. It was being speedrunned and TASed by so many peoples, hence, I also tried it. Also, the hack is completed and can be found on speedrun.com. You can find its IPS Patch in the comments section of this video : https://youtu.be/hl6gv6hnaPc

feos: Claiming for judging.
feos: Cleared the branch label, we don't use "any%" in branch labels.
feos: Delaying until Playground rules are defined for hacks, because supporting overly obscure hacks is non-trivial.
feos: Judging again...
feos: This record has been beaten by 12 frames (movie length difference is 11 frames, but in FCEUX gameplay starts 1 frame later due to emulation differences). Rejecting.
feos: Since #7471: SMBistic, Niftski & Suzumiya's NES Super Bob in 01:58.50 went to Playground which is meant to be a leaderboard for all attempts that are acceptably good, this submission can also go there as it's still well done.

I am confused, are you unable to view embedded video on this site?

A video marked "Private" is only able to be viewed by the video owner. Change the video to "Unlisted" or "Public" then it can be viewed by others.

Meh. There's so much more interesting SMB romhacks around to TAS. This one looked mostly trivial to execute, other than the 1-4 pipe glitch, which admittedly was very cool. The technical quality of the TAS wasn't half bad, so props on that, but basically anything in this TAS could be seen in other SMB TASes already. Good work anyway, keep it up.

Not familiar with the romhack, so I checked current RTA WR Link to video Observations: - This Romhack has very little additions if there are any compared to the original version of the game. - This Romhack only removes levels instead of changing/increasing the entertainment and/or difficulty. - Obvious no vote.

There are literally hundreds of Super Mario romhacks, many of which are (to laymen) indistinguishable from the original. What makes this particular romhack notable enough to publish?

Is there any kind of description of this hack and source/origin in the form of a patch file?
Warning: When making decisions, I try to collect as much data as possible before actually deciding. I try to abstract away and see the principles behind real world events and people's opinions. I try to generalize them and turn into something clear and reusable. I hate depending on unpredictable and having to make lottery guesses. Any problem can be solved by systems thinking and acting.

I watched this hack in Niftskis's video and he linked to Speedrun.com when I asked for the patch (MOD EDIT: Removed link to a ROM. Do not post links to copyrighted content.)

So no description of what it changes (and why) either?

I chose original SMB rom and the hack's nes file and converted it into an IPS patch. I asked Niftskis's about where can I find the patch, he said I can convert it for myself because it's not provided at Speedrun.com and no RomHack submission was there on official romhacking site If allowed, can I paste the link to the page where I converted the hack to IPS?

MOD EDIT:
These instructions were linking to the ROM, not to the .IPS patch. Please make sure you are linking to the correct file.
