Like A Fox
Maybe I don't understand what you are saying, but when you throw a shell, it is going faster than you. How are you supposed to jump off of it? I don't know if this helps, but for perspective, if you throw a turtle from the green switch blocks in a prun it doesn't reach the key box. Thats how I remember it anyways.
Thanks for the site, it should help a lot.
And for the vanilla secret level I will explain it better now that there is a map... the entire level that is.
Jump up and grab the shell off the very first red turtle in the level. From there jump to the platform above him then to the green spring bouncer thing (right of mario is at right of 2nd ball from the wall if I remember correctly) and you get exactly enough height to hit the second one, and then land on the top of that upside down L that they are connedted to. From there jump and bounce off the turtle under the 3 yellow blocks and hit the vine on the bounce. Then stand at the vine and throw the turlte up, jump on the vine, and grab the turtle. Then you can jump to the next ledge and open the next vine with the turtle, catch it, and climb the vine the same way as the other vine (pirhana plant?). Set the turtle down on the left side of the platform left of the vine and get the spring. Set the spring down on the two block platform under pipe A (right next to and below the two blue pswitch blocks. Heres where I need help. From where do I jump with (holding left the whole time) the shell to land on the spring so I can jump up, throw the shell at the ledge under pipe A, and bounce off the shell to get in pipe A. the way I do it now takes a while because I have to make sure the right of mario is 2 pixels from the center of that dim star in the background (yes I am that close to the screen)
I am also haveing troubles finding the fastest way through castle 2 from door C to door D on the map from that site.
EDIT: I have now deemed my turtle bounce from the right side of the gray blocks to get the key impossible... until proven otherwise. Now I'm trying to find a super fast way through DP3... wish me luck.
