* You can view and edit up to 8 areas (starting with area 0) in a level.

* Edit Warps, Painting Warps, and Instant Warps. * Edit the positions and properties of objects like Stars, Platforms, Enemies, etc. Today is my first ever entry with a new level editor for SM64 called Quad64. I've been around the Super Mario 64 hacking community for a couple years now, but just never got around to making anything for SMWC's C3 expos. Still, we can't wait to see what else modders are able to add to Mario's latest adventure (and, perhaps, other Switch games) in the future.Hello everyone.

The mod community itself is relatively small for the time being, as well. The process for modifying Super Mario Odyssey files still isn't all that user-friendly, and the tools for making the mods aren't all that robust. The closest analogy we can think of for this kind of direct, hack-based game modding in the console gaming world is Mario Kart Wii, which saw a community of custom track makers develop shortly after Wii system hacking started to become widespread. That's a big difference from the wild world of Breath of the Wild modding, which runs through PC emulation of the Wii U version of the game.

Others have made mods that let Mario breathe indefinitely underwater or play as Bowser in unintended areas of the game. Hacker Simon Aarons created a mod that lets players run with super speed and 'moon jump' to otherwise impossible heights. It wasn't long before the hackers were digging into the game code to modify the way Super Mario Odyssey plays, too.

And why listen to that boring Mario music when you can replace it with 'Despacito' (or watch a 'Despacito' music video on a screen in Snow Kingdom)? From there, hackers started to figure out how to make cosmetic edits to in-game files, leading to mods that replace the power moons with old-school power stars or give Mario a Sonic the Hedgehog outfit, for instance. The modifications started a few months ago with simple save file edits that let players overflow the game's coin counter or unlock all the game's costumes, including some costumes that have yet to be officially released. But a small community of Super Mario Odyssey fans has been using their expanded Switch access to modify the game with new costumes, gameplay features, and even entirely new levels.
