Super Fahroni 64; A SM64 mod featuring M&L's new bro!

Hello everyone! After quite awhile of being off Maco I have returned! Plus, I've just started working on a brand new mod for Mario 64. I'm calling it Super Fahroni 64. Why? Because this mod will be about Mario and Luigi's youngest brother, Fahroni. I got the idea when I read an article saying that Charles Martinet, the voice of Mario, Luigi, Wario, and Waluigi, Baby Mario, and Baby Luigi said he wouldn't mind voicing a third Mario brother if one came to be. The reason he was asked the question was because Miyamoto, the creator of Mario said he'd considered creating a third Mario brother.

So, it inspired me to start and hopefully finish a full game hack for Super Mario 64. I chose the name Fahroni because I wanted the name to start with an F. So I went to this website and found the name in the list, and thought it'd fit. THE NAME IS NOT FINAL! If more people get on board with this we can discuss the name of the character, what he'll look like, color scheme (such as the colors of his hat/shirt and overalls).

I'll also be needing people that are good with making custom new maps! The game will need new adventurous maps to explore and surprise future players of the game.

Well that's all I can think of at the moment, I will be posting a screenshot of how Fahroni looks sometime later. Until then, please consider helping. Otherwise I wouldn't have written this post.

Good day. B-)

Haha yep I plan to add Fire Flower and Ice Flower Power-Ups to the mod, but I may have to just make them hats, since Mario hats are the only power ups in the game. Unless I figure out how to port a FF and IF I am assuming they'll have to be hats.

If they only have to be hats, maybe you just could add a flower ontop of the hat? xD If you can actually do that lol
don't know much about Mario 64 hacks only editing levels :P (not that "wouw" on it either)

Yeah haha. But really the main problem with that is that all the powerups are hats. Mario's hat. They all literally share the EXACT same model. So if I did replace a hat, it would replace all of them. Mario would have flower on his head like a Pikmin! So yeah they'll have to be hats. But with that I can just modify what each power up does. Along with swapping color pallets like Metal Mario's pallets.

Hahahh, I see now.. and the power ups would not last that long either right, because they're timed, or can you actually expand the time limit of the power up or something like that?

Wow I can see what you mean now that just screams blue! But that's the problem, Fahroni needs two different colors or else he'd look not-so-colorful. Purple and White look great on the other hand because the pallet hasn't been used yet and I feel like it fits him. I do like the 2 different blues going together though, so maybe that can be Fahroni's Ice-Ball pallet swap costume for the mod.

Yeah I put this on hold so I could help with Mirror of Shadows. But since Mirror of Shadows is not getting off the idea board I think I am going to resume this now.

This sounds like a lot of fun.
Since the fan-base for Mario 64 hacking is much larger than the fan base for OoT hacking, much more is possible with Mario 64.
Don't be afraid to go to people for help, and update us regularly!

(Also, heroes in the Mushroom Kingdom always wear blue overalls, so an orange hat and shirt are the only things that make sense for our protagonist. Also, I don't like the name Fahroni, it's not short, sweet, and easy to spell like Mario, or Luigi.)

Thanks for the information, and you can help out if you wish! The third brother's name is not final yet so if you have suggestions feel free to post them.

As some of you may know, I have left the rom editing scene, never to return. I will be attending UNL. I will also be getting a job, so I will not have the time to run a community and make all of these projects.

I'm leaving you all in good hands. Sylux102, one of the best Maco staff members, will be carrying on in my stead. His forums are on Zelda64.net. Register there, since this website is archive only.

As for OoT 2D and Izou, I will be leaving those in the hands of GodsTurf's team, Lunar World. If you are fans of these projects, subscribe to them.
