Releasing GLE mods

Before releasing your GLE hack, you will need to ensure that you complete the release checklist.
While some items are specific to GLE, others are good for you to do even for vanilla mods.

Release Checklist

• Make sure your hack works for all 5 regions of SMG2
• Make sure any additional code works for all 5 regions of SMG2
• Do not include any unmodified SMG2 files
• Have your hack translated into all 12 Languages, or remap languages you don't have onto languages you do have.
• Make sure your hack runs on console through to 100% completion
• If you have AllCompleteMessage enabled, make sure the message successfully gets sent to the Wii Message Board

Here are some optional suggestions.

• Check all custom music for Copyright

Region Support

Some regions are not supported in certain versions of GLE.
Make sure your hack runs on all of the regions that the GLE version you're using supports
The following SMG2 regions are supported:
