It still only wants to work with 3. Is just clicking reinsert all all I have to do to make it reinsert correctly?

[yoshicookiezeus]

Err... Don't you use the Save option to insert the blocks into the ROM?

[Argumentable]

That too

Edit: Oh when I reinserted it I was using the .bin file HURR

It works now, thanks for the help

[yoshicookiezeus]

In that case, I think you have to go into the database and re-add the block manually.

New sprite editting question: how would I make the Air Meter sprite work all the time and not just when you're in the water? Actually for what I want to use it for, it doesn't even have to work in the water

[raocow]

Is it possible to have a patch where fenced koopas can't be punched out?

edit - heck, even an extra non-stompable would be nifty

[Argumentable]

I don't know about the non-punching, but being unstompable is definitely something you can do with tweaker

[raocow]

quick thing: to keep the magikoopa from returning you use 'turn off generators' command, right? And that doesn't interfeer with layer 2 commands, right?

[FroggerbobT]

I don't know that you can stop the stupid magikoopa once its put in a level.

[yoshicookiezeus]

Correct. (Or it might be the "turn off generator 2" one; I don't really remember...) In any case, those don't interfere with anything related to layer movement, such as autoscrolls or layer 2 commands.

Would anyone happen to know how to make one of those Layer 2 Shenanigan levels?

[FroggerbobT]

I assume raocow would... I don't as of yet.

[Argumentable]

What do you want to do? Just make layer 2 scroll, or make it scroll differently from the norm?

If its the latter, you have to mess with the layer 2 scrolling rate, which is the fish button.

change properties in header > Change the drop down box at the top of that popupbox to 02.

Ahh, thanks.

Anyone knows what is going on with my sumo bros? I got the correct sprite header, but for some reason whenever he cast a fireball thingy, he gets all weird and distorted, and I have no idea what is going on.

[yoshicookiezeus]

Seems to me like a bad case of sprite tile memory meltdown. The Sumo Bros. lightning can cause sprites to randomly flicker around like that (though I've never seen such an extreme case before...), and I think I remember reading that it doesn't work very well with the No More Sprite Tile Limits patch. Try using the normal setting for it instead of 10.

[raocow]

someone on youtube suggested to put it at '07' specifically... and that was it! Gotta rework my level a little bit to adjust for sprites, but yup!

[Blinx]

I have a question. How does yy-chr work?

[randoguy101]

Well, what's your problem? Can't figure out how to edit .bin files?

[Zaidyer]

Okay here's a question: so, SMW YEAH!! has more advanced music hacking than anything on SMWCentral so far. I mean, it's got a totally perfect Yoshi's Island Castle song in it and that's not even supposed to be possible with Addmusic.
How'd they do it?

[raocow]

samples?

[FroggerbobT]

That music is some of the music that requires the N-SPC patch. It's on SMWC.

But, how do you make those elevators RC?

[raocow]

What IS that N-SPC patch, anyway? It's not the first time I heard of it.

And elevator... you mean layer two stuff? Basically you want to set it so Layer 2 'Falls', make the platform you're standing on layer one, and remove all scrolling. Make the rest of the level on layer 2, and it'll fall behind the level, making it look like you're riding the level upwards.

Unless you're talking about something else?

[flameofdoubt]

The N-SPC patch is a little tricky. Not to insert, you just put it in your rom and then more of the music on smwcentral is open to you, it allows extra...stuff, i don't know.

The problem with the N-SPC patch is that it doesn't exist. You won't find it on smwcentral because it isn't there. There is a remade patch which does the job of it but has an entirely different name which i have entirely forgotten, though i think it had a "g" in it somewhere, and it took me a while to find so that annoyed me.
