This one is among the Super Mario 64 screamer videos that appear from its old days, which all had to do with the urban legend. The video was apparently based on "[https://www.mariowiki.com/List_of_rumors_and_urban_legends_about_Mario#Gameplay L is real 2046]", an urban legend that started after it was once believed that a message from the courtyard plaque ("big star" referred to by the screamer") was a code to unlock Luigi, an unplayable character in Super Mario 64. The video has shown other steps aside from using a code to unlock the character. This urban legend has long since been debunked, kind of. | This one is among the Super Mario 64 screamer videos that appear from its old days, which all had to do with the urban legend.

The video is recorded on the computer screen with a flip-phone, which is believed to be a Motorola RAZR V3. Lotus had made changes on the castle using the editor "Toad’s Tool 64" to place the door in the right wall of the main lobby's staircase and to change Mario's shirt to be blue and overalls to black. Lotus had done other changes besides using the level editor, which all of them were drawn from MSPaint because he was unable to export the in-game textures at that time. | The video is recorded on the computer screen with a flip-phone, which is believed to be a Motorola RAZR V3.<ref>[https://screamer.wiki/images/f/f3/LMWDiscord6.png LMW Discord #3]</ref> Lotus had made changes on the castle using the editor "Toad’s Tool 64" to place the door in the right wall of the main lobby's staircase and to change Mario's shirt to be blue and overalls to black.<ref>[https://screamer.wiki/images/4/41/LMWDiscord7.png LMW Discord #4]</ref> Lotus had done other changes besides using the level editor, which all of them were drawn from MSPaint because he was unable to export the in-game textures at that time. | ||
The video's audio has been muted to avoid copyright issues, so it was replaced with [https://009-sound-system.fandom.com/wiki/Dreamscape 009 Sound System's Dreamscape theme] in 2010. The video originally had a set of three music, such as "[[wikipedia:Whispers in the Dark (Skillet song)|Whispers in the Dark]]" by Skillet at the start,<ref>[https://screamer.wiki/images/8/8b/LMWDIscord2.png LMW Discord #5]</ref> and "Those Chosen by the Planet" from [[wikipedia:Final Fantasy VII|Final Fantasy VII]] in the second half and the credits.<ref>[https://screamer.wiki/images/4/4a/LMWDiscord5.png LMW Discord #6]</ref><ref>[https://screamer.wiki/images/7/77/LMWDiscord3.png LMW Discord #7]</ref> However, the music that played in the beginning was often mistaken<ref>[https://screamer.wiki/images/9/97/LMWDiscord1.png LMW Discord #8]</ref> as "[[wikipedia:Bring Me To Life|Bring Me To Life]]" by Evanescence, according to many witnesses. Lotus also said that an email was sent to him, which offered him to put "Database" by Alexander Pearls for almost US $40, which he accepted later on. When questioned about the audio swap, Lotus explained that it's "''one of the those [[YouTube]] recommends it for audio swaps when they screw you over.''"<ref>[https://screamer.wiki/images/b/bf/LMWDiscord4.png LMW Discord #9]</ref> | |||

Lotus has confirmed that the [[screamer]] took place inside the castle, mostly in the courtyard, rather than the ones claiming to have took place in the Bob-Omb Battlefield. Lotus mentioned that Mario has entered to an "alternate dimension", where textures (from which he drawn in MS Paint) are glitching out, possibly due to low memory issues with the emulator. On September 16, 2020, Lotus made two screenshots as a remake such as for the thumbnail (depiction of Mario standing in front of the courtyard statue) and some part featuring Mario next to the castle. | Lotus has confirmed that the [[screamer]] took place inside the castle, mostly in the courtyard, rather than the ones claiming to have took place in the Bob-Omb Battlefield.
