A combination of Primal’s M22 Remastered Dreamland and Skraton’s Return to Dreamland – Night stages, the nearly-definitive* Animelee Remastered versions of Dream Land are here.
I wasn’t satisfied with the 2D / pixelated remnants of Smash 64’s Dream Land found in each Animelee version of Dream Land, so I tried to adopt as much of Return to Dream Land as possible while also keeping aspects of it faithful to Animelee.
*Above I say “nearly-definitive” because each version is not quite where I want it to be. I will explain below.
I created a day time and night time variant. Each version has:
- 3D Whispy
- 3D Stars on Whispy
- Green Greens background with animated water
- High res flowers
- Animelee Platforms
However, only the day time version has:
- Animated background clouds
- Dedede/Bronto Burts
Only the night time version has:
- Proper high poly + high res base stage
- Proper bushes on the sides instead of stumps
Additionally, on both, I had to cull out the mountains in the background because of some where z-index priority where they would only appear behind the islands. It’s something hard-coded into the Array it’s in.
Nevertheless, I consider both stages upgrades from the current Animelee stages available, so enjoy these versions for now and look forward to updates in the future as I make various improvements + get community help.
Beautiful stage. But it looks like the blue overlay for the water is only for the original ratio and doesn’t fill the screen in widescreen. Is there anyway to fix that?
This is a consequence of you not using the correct Gecko code for widescreen. You can’t merely use Dolphin’s “widescreen hack” feature, you have to specifically enable the correct Gecko code and adjust your aspect ratio accordingly. Then it will work as intended. This applies to all of the other stages with this issue, as well as the strange “4:3 box white flashing” you may have seen while playing. More info in my video here.
