Does anyone know how to edit Newer SMBW levels? I tried to unpack files with ntcompress.exe, but file what ntcompress made from 01-01.arc.LH isn't 01-01.arc, but 01-01.arc_NONE.bin, and saving file as .arc by hex editor doesn't work. How to do it?

The easiest thing to do is to download 1.0.3 NewerDecompressed from ZementBlock's Google Drive. Once you download, unzip the contents and make sure the "Stages" folder is set as your new Game Path in the Reggie level editor. If you need help with the Reggie level editor, you can just PM me or whatnot. :)

Other things (such as sprites) requires a bit of code (as far as I know) to get into Reggie!, so I think the best option for a beginner is a mod of Reggie! known as "Reggie! Next," but you could also use the "Reggie! Newer Sprites" mod, or other mods that I don't know of.

Don't forget sprites!

Also, 'cause it's question of Newer Wii hacking, I want to make another question.
Don't anyone know how to edit Newer's video cutscenes?


all the questions are here, 'cause I'm newcommer to hacking and I know only how to use level editor. Blarg, blarg and thrice blarg (and before you ask, thrice is skawo's word used in M&L:PJB first video).

Video cutscenes? You mean the old ones (cut from the game) or the opening scene?
The opening scene can be editing with a bit of tileset and message modifying. If you want to modify the messages, go here and read the instructions. Then open "Messages.bin" from your decompressed (or compressed) Newer folder within the software and edit the message titled "Welcome!" but make sure it is the one near the bottom. The tileset editing is pretty easy, and I'm sure you could figure it out yourself.

I need the old ones support and I don't want to edit Welcome message, but opening catch layout and change it to cutscene.

You mean to an actually animated cutscene? That would take a ton of animation skill and a lot of programming in order to actually let the Wii/Wii U support your video.

You can learn C++ and CGI animation off of lots of websites and videos. Just look those things up and I'm sure you can find a lot of useful tutorials.

Yes, quite a big requirement, actually.

No, I need to know how to enable video cutscenes after creating new file and clearing worlds 1, 2 and 3.

Pretty sure that requires a lot of coding. :/

But don't listen to what I say, I hack SMG2.

Yes, it would require a lot of coding, you are correct.

Newer's files do not have to be re-compressed, they work in-game uncompressed.

I don't really know, but I think it was to prevent spoilers and cheating when it first came out.
