To be included when finished:

On/Off Turnblock Bridge
DO NOT change the order of the sprites or your version will be void. To make the Custom Sprite list work is a manual process that took me roughly 7 hours (with 3 messups making me start over from the very beginning.) If you want to include something when you're making a level, give it to us, and we will tell you what your sprite number is, include it with that value.

For custom sprites, you could probably take a lot of things from the original, like

Confused Boos
Maverick Thwomps
Sideways Thwomps

That's all I can think of right now.

In that case... Isn't any block available? Are you going to be specifically saying "No, you can't use that block, it's silly!"?

The blocks from the other list included the on/off triangles I had made, as well as a few others, download that ZIP and see what I already have, that way you'll know some of the stuff I predict may be used. If they're pre-included and unused, it will at least save a headache as opposed to including them later and not everyone knowing what's available, and giving you the same thing 5-10 times. -shrug-

o_0 I just went for the stuff I figured was interesting -shrug-

I assume you'll update the thing when you include more, also I assume that a newer version of the ips will be available at that juncture?

So how WILL block insertion work anyway. When the project is going, we just pop in here and say 'Hey I want this blocktool block here inserted at this place?"

Re: Sprites & Blocks

Post by raocow »

if there are things that I KNOW I'm going to be using, can I ask them to be included in the baseROM straight away? I mean these would be required in my first planned level, so might as well save some time.

Teleport block, sprite only block, mario only block

depending on how the whole 'powerups carry over' debate goes, possibly those blocks that shatter when touched by a fireball.

I'm thinking those blocks are all included in the base ROM by default (I am hoping certain common blocks are already included so we don't end up with 6 or 7 positions of the same block.)

While they won't all necessarily be included in the base ROM, they can be as long as someone actually goes and inserts all the ones that come with blocktool. Also chdata am I wrong in thinking that blocks have to have an inserted value like sprites?

When inserting blocks, you specify which Map16 space you want them to use, so if you want different looking tiles to be the same custom block, I think we would have to insert it multiple times.

If worst comes to worst, then after chdata does all the patching, I may have time in the next couple of days to make a page or two of custom blocks that are pre-inserted.

Naw the trick is to insert it once into the Map16, and then whenever anyone makes their own personal Map16 for levels they just have it act like that tile. That way you only need one insertion, but it means the first post needs to contain what Map16 tiles all these blocks are allocated to.

Yes that's what people SHOULD do. But people should also include a list of where they inserted their own blocks and what blocks they were.

I assume someone can tweak Venus Fire Traps so that they are not on SP2? Who sets it like that?

Block Requests

Post by Tails_155 »

I know, I know, but for the Base ROM there are somethings I can't seem to find.

Don't post here unless you're gonna take one of the blocks for the Base ROM, I'll open this later to everyone when we're ready.

Blocks I don't know where to find, or the ones I've found aren't good enough:

Better fire flower block akin to the Green ! Block for Feathers

Unless FoD has more luck than I did (very likely) the directional passable blocks (they don't like .44 when I tried to use them)

Better ON/OFF blocks

Better breakable block

Better sensitive block

Better sensitive block (bounce)

Better frozen block

Like I said, several of these may just be me DOING IT WRONG!

if FoD takes care of it, that's cool, if not, then we'll know which ones to fix.

So far the only fire flower block I've found though has no sound... and only seems to allow one per level or something.

Again, FoD if you check this, I am sure you know, but just to reconfirm, we're using .44, because Chdata said so.

Could I request that we add the on/off turn block bridge to the sprite list?

Also, what is an on/off triangle?

On/Off Triangle I used for my puzzle level in ASMT, ON (or off, depending on which you use) acts like triangle OFF (or on depending on which you use) acts like nothing. The assist block is included.

On/Off turnblock bridge, and maybe if someone makes it, my other idea :P

Re: Block Request Thread - Currently for Base ROM only

Post by raocow »

well, common blocks that I'm pretty sure the baseROM could use are

sprite only, mario only, teleport, de-power

These are blocks that anyone could use and are always nice to have.

[BT/BTSD + ASM] Spin Jump block (Sonikku)

Really like this block. Works good if set to 12F and using Thwomp graphics.

[BTSD] Break By Cape Block (I8Strudel)

I might not use it, but it's a good general block.

[BTSD] Enable/Disable Horizontal Scroll (Apollyon)

[BTSD] Enable/Disable Vertical Scroll (Apollyon)

Simple blocks that can be used to make psuedo last screen effects.

[BTSD] Hard Landing (Klazen)

Never used this block, but if someone will go for a cave level, then this block will be useful. (Might use it in one of my sublevels, if I manage to catch one.)

Yeah. Some effects blocks. I'll probably use them all actually. If I get to do what I wanna.
