Hello, everyone. Today I present to you my SM64 hack, Super Mario: Red Star Expedition. This is a shorter version of Super Mario: Power Star Expedition, as it contains 50 stars instead of 80. I realized that 80 stars would probably be too tough for me, so I made the hack more reasonable. This isn't exactly a new hack, however. It's kind of like SMPSE as it contains some of the levels from that hack. Anyway, more information can be found below, and if you want, you can post some feedback. It would be greatly appreciated.
Features - Five brand new main courses and nine brand new secret courses (50 stars in total); - three new hub worlds; - some custom objects; and - new music. Screenshots (from SketchUp Make 2016) None of the following screenshots are final. Area 2 of Goomba Grasslands Sky Jungle Slide King Whomp's Freezing Pond Lava level Stuff for the first hub world Bowser's Castle in Space In-game screenshots Area 2 of Goomba Grasslands King Whomp's Freezing Pond Main courses (names are subject to change) Course 1: Goomba Grasslands Course 2: Hot, Hot Desert Course 3: Spooky Ghost Mansion Course 4: Playful Candy Land Course 5: Lava level Bowser levels (names are subject to change) King Whomp's Freezing Pond King Bob-omb's Airship Fleet Bowser's Castle in Space Cap levels (names are subject to change) Vanish Cap Cove Magma Mine of the Metal Cap Rainbow Road of the Wing Cap Secret levels (names are subject to change) Sky Jungle Slide Galactic Spaceway Beach level I might upload a video soon. Thank you for reading. |

I was initially going to show off this level in the form of a video when I completely finish it, but since I had to switch to SM64 ROM Manager for the model to work in-game, I have some things to get used to. As such, fully completing this model may take a little bit longer than I thought, and I just want to show more progress already. Here are some screenshots of course 2, currently called Goomba Grasslands.
The visual map and collision map are completely done, except for a few bugs that came up. After I fix said bugs, I can start placing objects, and then I can make a video. Also, if you want, leave some feedback. It would be greatly appreciated. |

Yeah I have to say that the models are top-notch! You should however learn blender, which is much more powerful than Sketchup. It will be worth your while to learn it, you'll be able to have vertex colouring and better topology (because sketchup's way of triangulating really sucks). ____________________ This is my signature, what do I put here? |

Thank you, guys. Regarding your comment, Froggo, I honestly just feel comfortable with SketchUp, so I am probably going to use it for this whole hack. I would probably like to learn Blender in the future, though. However, while I don't use Blender for modeling, I do actually use it for vertex colouring and UV mapping. Using a new tool called SM64 ROM Manager, I can export models from Blender with vertex colouring in .fbx format, and the vertex colours will appear in-game! Anyway, once again, thank you for the kind words, guys. It is quite unfortunate that this hack isn't getting a lot of attention so far, but the few people who do comment really motivate me sometimes. |

Well, I do suggest you eventually graduate to other programs. I'm a Maya user, not a Blender one. You can also try even Z-brush for really organic models and then retopo with Maya to get a really nice organic mesh. Though that's something to consider in the future.

How would using ZBrush even work with SM64 lol.
You should definitely upgrade to Maya/Blender/3DS Max. It'll be well worth your time. ____________________ This is my signature, what do I put here? |

Well, you can sculpt a quick and dirty structure and retopo it to something usable for Super Mario 64. Blender can actually sculpt and retopo, it seems.
This may not apply to Super Mario 64, but if you're working with a more contemporary game engine, you can even try sculpting details and then bake details as textures into the new retopo mesh, so you get a highly detailed model but with a reasonable polycount. Or you can use something like Substance Painter to get some nice detailing on there. |

Below are some screenshots of the space level (this course is in its early stages):

The quality of your models are great! Keep up!
Also I think that if you feel convenient with Sketchup, continue to use it. SKP is a lot underrated, but it can also do very good modellism in some cases, even that it is true that for game development other modelling software like Maya may be more adapted. But if Sketchup does the job for you, no one have to force you to change! ____________________ "I failed in some subjects in exam, but my friend passed in all.
