This is kinda of a stupid question but which npc is the smb3 fire pirhana plant and where is its fireball sprite?? I searched it 20 times but i can't find it.

isn't it the same sprite for mario's fireball?

You can't have more than one SMB3 exit star per section?

Well that slipped through the reviews of my level then

Wait really? Is this true? It slipped through the reviews of my level too. And I submitted my level as well... crap.
EDIT: Is it alright if I move one of the power stars to a different section and resubmit my level?

that has been said many times throughout past threads, but yeah, I agree it's a pretty huge overlook from reviewers

[derjet]

Maybe the wiki or something should have a place to put how many stars are there in a level?

That'd make reviewing them easier

I suggested that already, I believe it got put in the Worlds page.

But isn't that for levels already reviewed (since they were assigned to a World and that)

[darkychao]

okay, i've been working on this level for a little while now but now whenever i try to open it i get an invalid picture error, it seems to be caused by block-87 but i can't tell why. does anyone else get the same thing when opening it?

EDIT: reinstalling asmbx fixed it i don't know why

How can I cause a door to be a reset door?

[Ignoritus]

You can't really. Make all of the things you want to reset generators, and have a block that hides Spawned NPCs, and then shows the generators just long enough for them to generate one on hit.

[Octagon]

I'm a total noob to SMBX and I don't have time to figure this out, so for the draft version, I'll just have the reset door lead into a separate room which I have to enter and leave again in order to reset coins, switches and enemies. Still, thank you.

[XutaWoo]

That won't work.

Stuff doesn't respawn in SMBX if it's taken, killed, activated, what have you.

[raocow]

My suggestion at this point, if it's that easy to screw things over - make whatever you want to do a 'one time shot' to get to a second exit (and indicate it as such in some fashion) and otherwise have a way to progress foward.

[shaman]

you can make a "limited" reset door, by copying the whole room into another and make the warp go into the copy

[Octagon]

Having a reset door at that point was more of a matter of personal preference, really. There's a P-Switch which you can waste if you play very, very clumsily or mindlessly, and since the actual challenge should come from a jump which is only required due to the P-Switch thing, I felt like you should never have to kill yourself right before that jump (and the subsequent transition to the next room)...

Couldn't you just have a constantly respawning p-swicth?

[Octagon]

Whoa, I'm dumb.

[darkychao]

where can i find the graphics for the ridden shoes?

[MrWeirdGuy]

Just in the npc folder.
Green: npc-35
Red: npc-191
Blue: npc-193

[darkychao]

Just in the npc folder.
Green: npc-35
Red: npc-191
Blue: npc-193

no, those are for the ones that aren't being ridden, when the player puts them on they revert back to default.

I think this was brought up before and it was found out that they're hardcoded.

that's quite strange, but yah, it looks like you're right.

[docopoper]

You cannot edit them sadly. They are hard-coded.

[Mata Hari]

Is it possible to make an event that triggers when you enter a new section? I'd like to make a sound play.

you could use an invisible sprite, like a smb axe, place it over the warp exit have it cause an event upon death.
