You should probably specify that SMBX 2.0 isn't even out yet. (And thus the Lua comment is inaccurate at the moment too. I don't believe 1.3 supports LunaLua by default and I don't think SMBX.org has the LunaLua compatible download unless you go looking through the forums.) The one you linked only has v1.3 since 2.0 is going into an open beta phase soon before an actual release.

Sorry it was just the portal, but really soon it will be incorporated in the official SMBX , and with the new PGE editor + 8 new characters playable , like megaman , bowser , etc...

It's just a stepping stone for Wohl's replacement engine though. SMBX in general is kinda buggy and not that great.

Well, I mean, this was written back when desktop computers weren't even powerful enough to scroll the screen smoothly. The NES had special hardware to do that, but general purpose desktop computers didn't. The interesting bit was that he created a technique that made it possible by shifting the screen by abusing EGA hardware's ability to make a buffer larger than the actual screen. He then shifted the screen to reveal these hidden portions, while redrawing and clearing other regions of memory as he needed to. You then redraw regions of the screen that need to be updated by keeping track of "dirty rectangles" that tainted the background.
