Re: Level Submission FAQ/Notes (Download Base Game/Devkit Here)
Yeah, I heard raocow say that in one of his videos, but if you actually test it, you'll see that only two tiles are necessary. Even if you place the player on a one-tile-off-screen wall that's right next to a two-tile-off-screen wall, the player still won't be able to jump over the two-tile-off-screen wall. Also, once the player's sprite is completely off-screen from the bottom, that registers as the player falling down a bottomless pit and dying, and since the player is never taller than two tiles (LunaLua notwithstanding), only two tiles are needed there, too.

Re: Level Submission FAQ/Notes (Download Base Game/Devkit Here)
That's actually not the case. You can place a block 3 tiles offscreen, and you can stand on it perfectly fine. You can stand on a block 4 tiles offscreen as well, but only when big (and if you duck, you'll die)Imaynotbehere4long wrote:Also, once the player's sprite is completely off-screen from the bottom, that registers as the player falling down a bottomless pit and dying, and since the player is never taller than two tiles (LunaLua notwithstanding), only two tiles are needed there, too.

Re: Level Submission FAQ/Notes (Download Base Game/Devkit Here)
I have the latest Lua and the pack of fixed npc-texts and the lunaworld file. However, "musichud.png" seems to be missing, and as such the code was crashing my game. Once the code loading and showing the graphic was commented out, it worked fine. I'm not sure if I have an outdated extension pack thing or if you forgot completely. Either way, it's an issue.SAJewers wrote:ping

Clicking on Episode1.exe just causes endless loading.

Is there a place I can get custom backgrounds for the level I'm making? I forgot almost everything with smbx, but im still able to create levels and such.

You should probably just grab Squishy Rex's graphics pack from the SMBX forums.

Re: Level Submission FAQ/Notes (Download Base Game/Devkit Here)
So I'm about half done with my next level, I read somewhere I need to extend objects 3 tiles outside of the level boundaries?
Re: Level Submission FAQ/Notes (Download Base Game/Devkit Here)
Hi, I'm having problems with this latest release:
This looks like it searches for an image file (twice in a row?), but I can't find any "musichud.png" file anywhere when I search myself. What's up with that?
Edit: Oh, I didn't notice Pyro's comment and response to it. I guess I'll just add the image manually.
Edit2: Wait, I'm an idiot. I downloaded the latest version of Episode 2 (which is fixed), but accidentally opened an older install file. Disregard everything I said.
I can't open any level file which is also in the Episode 2 folder. The problem seems to originate from the lunaworld.lua file, more specifically these 2 lines:SAJewers wrote:http://www.mediafire.com/download/q6pc5 ... isode2.exe

Yeah, you need to extend your tiles. Otherwise you'll be able to fly under the level.

I see, no problem. Only under, or all sides?

Re: Level Submission FAQ/Notes (Download Base Game/Devkit Here)
Alright so my level is about finished now. I still need to find a song for it though! This is the first time I've ever made a level without knowing which music to use one or two screens in. lol
FF music is a no no right?

As long as it's not nintendo music and it doesn't get hit by the content ID system, you're fine.

Re: Level Submission FAQ/Notes (Download Base Game/Devkit Here)
Hey, I'm very interested in working on a level for this (have been for the past few weeks actually) but I haven't had anytime to work on it because finals are closing in next week. For how long are you accepting levels?

Here is the current level list: http://asmbxt.wikia.com/wiki/Episode2
If you are interested in making a level, it is suggested you try and develop something suitable for the remaining slots shown.

I re-wrote most of the OP to cut things down significantly. Most of the Bad Design stuff is now in the "Level Design Tips" thread.
