***THE BUILDER ALL-STARS***

The Builder All-Stars present a selection of the arguably best levels made in Mario Builder 64.
This selection is not related to the Mario Builder developers or the website Level Share Square,
which is the main host for levels made with this editor.

The Builder All-Stars consist of level packs which feature 20 levels each, and roughly arrange
levels by their difficulty. These level packs are created chronologically,
that is, according to the periods in which these levels were released.

The aim of this project is to make these particular levels as accessible as possible,
categorize them efficiently to eliminate the need of engaging with
the disorienting vastness of uploaded levels, and preserve these levels permanently.

The Xth Builder All-Stars level pack is an additional entry to the mainline series.
It is subsequent to the 1st Builder All-Stars level pack and largely consists of levels
from the first week of Mario Builder's release, which were neglected from the 1st level pack
due to the excess of level uploads in that week.


***How to Play:***

It is required to play these levels on an emulator with SD card support.
This essentially makes it necessary to either use Parallel Launcher or Luna's Project64.

The levels need to be placed inside the SD card so that they become accessible when
launching Mario Builder. Here are guides which detail the setup process:

Luna's Project64 follows a similar process:
	1) Select File -> Mount SD Card.
	2) A prompt will appear, click OK.
	3) Wait for a pop-up to appear in your taskbar, and allow the application to run.
	4) A window with your Mario Builder 64 Levels should now open automatically.
	5) Click on the folder and paste levels into it.
	6) Navigate to "This PC", right-click "SDCARD0 (F:)" and eject it.
	7) Go back to Luna's Project64, select File -> Unmount SD Card.
	8) Run Mario Builder 64.
