Alternate Castle Grounds was an area in B3313.

Description

The area is nearly identical to the Castle Grounds, but there are several major changes:

• The skybox is now shades of blue, purple, and pink.
• None of the warps work aside from the front doors, although the holes for the warps are present.
• Several things are out of place, such as trees and doors:
  • The Silent Hall door is underwater and inaccessible.
  • The Crescent Castle doors are missing completely.
  • Some trees are missing, but their shadows remain.
• Some of the textures differ, such as the windows.
• All NPCs are out of bounds.
• It's possible to walk on the water, allowing to clip out of bounds.
• The waterfall is stationary, but the water in the moat is not.
• The wing cap window is unable to be entered.
• Dark Hallway is blocked by an invisible wall.
• The corridor to Twisted Red Hallway doesn't exist.

In v0.7, this area is where the ending cutscene takes place after defeating Bowser in Eternal Fort (beta).

Origins

The area is inspired by the Shoshinkai beta version of Super Mario 64. The Toad statue behind the castle can be seen in some of Emmy's videos, but the area is otherwise an original creation.

There is no music playing in this area, but ambient bird noises can be heard.

Warps
