SMW ǀ Unintended Exits ǀ Donut Secret 2, secret exit (NEW EXIT?) [RTA]

Join SMW Discord:   / discord   Discord: The_Unintended_Gamer This is my attempt at a tutorial explaining how to perform unintended exits in Super Mario World. Super Mario World is a notoriously glitchy game, allowing the player to go beyond what was intended by the game designers. Normally, there is a total of 96 exits in the game. Over the years, dedicated gamers discovered several unintended exits (see https://pastebin.com/wqk0KfbM for list). I want to find novel unintended exits. For this, I used unintendedly spawned Key and Keyhole in the level. Triggering a secret exit in levels having only a single normal exit activates the normal exit of the next level. Here, Donut Secret 2 level is not followed by a level, but by a Pipe. So it is expected to trigger a new unintended exit! First, we have to perform the Powerup Incrementation glitch to get Mario at Power Status 8 (see    • SMW ǀ Unintended Powerup State (Powerup In...   for tutorial). At Power Status 8, go to Yoshi’s Island 2 to get the Key in the item box (see    • SMW ǀ Unintended Item Spawning ǀ (Winged) ...   for tutorial). After, repeat Powerup Incrementation to go to Power Status 96. This Power Status allows Mario to spawn a Keyhole at the Goalpost if holding a Spring (or a P-Switch, see    • SMW ǀ Unintended Goalpost Item Spawning (p...   for tutorial). So, to trigger Donut Secret 2 secret exit, first enter the level uncleared with Yoshi. Grab the Spring with Yoshi and carry it to the end of the level. Spawn the Key toward the end of the level and drop it near the Goalpost. Grab again the Spring to the Goalpost. Place Yoshi with the Key in this mouth just behind the Goalpost. Grab the Spring and jump into the Goalpost to land on Yoshi. The Spring will transform into a Keyhole. The Keyhole ‘falls’ on us, triggering the secret exit! After saving in Donut Ghost House, we will get an additional exit in the game file :). After I triggered the normal exit of Donut Secret 2, yielding another exit. So, here I found a secret exit that is accounted in the game file. However, I don’t know if Donut Secret 2 secret exit represents a new unintended exit or corresponds to a previously known unintended exit… Hope this video can help you in your quest to master SMW famous (and awesome) glitches. My setup: I use an original Japanese Super Mario World cartridge played on a Super Retro Trio 3 Console (PAL version); I thus played in Real-Time Attack [RTA] without Saved States. Crappy video (and sound) captured using an ‘EasyCAP’ USB adapter (S-Video signal) and ‘Honestech VHS to DVD’ software. Video editing done using Shotcut free software. #SMW #Glitch #Tutorial
