foundry-smb3 0.6.1.post1

The future of SMB3

Foundry

Purpose

Foundry is the all-in-one editor for modifying copies of the North American release of SMB3. We seek to streamline the game development processes to ensure that the nostalgic memories of Power Glove, Nintendo Power, and goomba stomping can be accessed and modified by all. We want to put the power into our favorite game and you the super player!

Installation

To install and use Foundry, there are three options:

1. Download Foundry Executable

   This is the every-person method. Every minor and major release will prepackage the editor into an executable to run painlessly on your native machine. To get started, go to Releases and download the executable specific to your operating system.

2. Download Foundry from PyPi

   This is the method recommended if you wish to run the project natively with Python. This may required if you use a 32 bit machine or an obscure operating system. It is also required if you wish to use Foundry in some combination with other Python packages. With Python installed, write pip install foundry-smb3 into your console and run foundry or run foundry.main.start from inside Python.

3. Download Foundry from Github

   This is the developer method. This will provide you easy access to the entire repository. In addition to Python you will need Poetry installed. Once installed run the following commands into your terminal:

   $ git clone [e-mail]:TheJoeSmo/Foundry.git
   $ cd Foundry
   $ poetry install
   

Documentation

All documentation of the editor can be found at Foundry Documentation.
