Submitting MMVRC

Can I post a link to my mod here?

Description/README:

Metroid Mother Visibility Rearranged and Compactified (aka MMVRC).

This is a mod of a mod. I modded one of my favorite Metroid (NES) improvement patches: Metroid mOTHER (aka MM), by dACE a.k.a Nitendo. MM is a merging of 3 mods: Metroid + Saving (v 0.3) by snarfblam, MDbtroid by Infinity's End, and 'Roidz by DemickXII.

What I did here is make secrets visible with visual clues and also made it easier for casuals by thinning out the enemies and rearranging some rooms. It should now be a piece of cake to get 100% and the best ending (well it is for me). Metroid is one of my favorite games of all time but that doesn't mean there wasn't always things about it I hated. When going through a door from a horizontal passage to a vertical passage if you were at the top or the bottom, I used to be unsure because floors are not visible until you move down to a lower platform, and ceilings were not visible until you jump up to a higher platform. I am very visual so an absence of accurate visual cues can be confusing to me. This is for people like me and also maybe kids, casuals, and video game newcomers. Actually this is for everyone because people with medium Metroid skills should be able to easily complete the game with 100% and the best ending, and experts should be able to complete the game faster than ever. Speedrunners and racers could enjoy it too I believe.

I also want to mention Neill Corlett's Metroid lua script. Read about it and download here:

https://tracebullet.net/2019/02/01/metroid-nes-lua-script-for-fceux-by-neill-corlett/

MMVRC does not seem to work with the lua script with FCEUX 2.2.3. It does however, work with FCEUX 2.2.2. Furthermore, if you open MDBtroid first, run the lua script, and then open MMVRC, it will fix the font, and you will not experience the startup error.

Enjoy!

To the admins, today I resubmitted my hack to the main page because of the news item that said some of the submissions may have been lost recently.
