And they are fully functional. (Side note: Armydillo 2 floors are solid water planes, but that's a story for another day)Whomps Fortress in Donkey Kong 64!GloriousLiar2023-01-04 | The culmination of years of hard work has resulted in this: custom, fully-functional, textured maps in DK64! We are in the golden age of DK64 romhacking.
This hack is the culmination of months of hard work at getting custom visuals and collisions for new levels in DK64. One's first question is typically, why all the colors? Where are the normal textures? Long answer short, this is the first step on the way to that eventual goal. It took months of reverse engineering DK64 to get to this point, and it will take some more to get the rest of the way. In the meantime, enjoy!

Done on Xbox One. If you clip out of a sub-area in Galleon Galaxy, you can fly back to the main area because the sub-area is really just far away on the main map. Similar to other out-of-bounds, certain objects tend to deload. The glass around the lighthouse consistently never loads, and you can fly straight to the top and get the Pagie and bring Dr. Puzz in to the dock.
