I'm using it right now, there doesn't appear to be anything of the sort. Though it does need a line changing to avoid breaking all NPC interactions (it's mentioned in the cinematX thread).Horikawa Otane wrote:

Thanks, but I was looking more for readymade graphics. I don't feel confident at all that my limited editing skills are enough to go messing around with the player character graphics.ano0maly wrote:Spriters Resource is a good site for looking for graphics.Mikkofier wrote:I'm looking for a custom player graphic that replacesMario with an "enemy" character (goomba, koopa etc.)

Thanks, but does this have anything that will help me with the Wohl editor? Specifically the one issue I already mentioned?Fawriel wrote:: It'll look a lot less daunting once you checked out [url= tutorials[/url]!
Also, is it REALLY necessary, like the rules say? I think I have the grasp of the SMBX Editor's basics, since I made a level for A2XT with it, but Wohl, even if it probably IS superior, is kind of confusing.

All the testing should be done with the smbx editor. You can make/start a level with it too, and switch to Wohl editor whenever there is need for large layout changes. Most of the objects, tiles and other things can be altered with right click. Also a lot of important windows are under the view tab.GenoWhirled wrote:Thanks, but does this have anything that will help me with the Wohl editor?

The tutorials have things that are relevant to the SMBX engine's concepts regardless of which editor is used. Don't know of tutorial resources specifically for the Wohl editor here.GenoWhirled wrote:Thanks, but does this have anything that will help me with the Wohl editor?

No, it's absolutely not necessary. It was just recommended because various features like actually having an 'undo' are rather useful.

Is it possible to have SMB2 grass that has nothing buried under it?

So forgive me if this was answered somewhere, but if I recolor the character I was given (Give link a different colored tunic, etc), thats fine right?

You could completely swap their graphics if you want; it's the mechanics of the character that are important.Gezo24 wrote:So forgive me if this was answered somewhere, but if I recolor the character I was given (Give link a different colored tunic, etc), thats fine right?
Speaking of graphic swapping... haven't quite looked into it yet, but is it possible to swap the graphics for the player character mid-stage?

Not out of the box. You could probably do it with LunaLua and forcing powerups or something.Garlyle wrote:

Re: MaGL X2 Discussion. No raocows! NOT the sign up thread!
I looked for these answers but could not find them.
1] is there a way to attach a layer to the player/camera? I want said layer to move when the player moves, and to follow them.
3] is there a way to have events trigger/toggle upon entering/leaving areas? I was thinking having an NPC die offscreen immediately and having that trigger an event, but is there an easier way? Toggling I'm especially curious about.

It's easier than 2by2 matrix multiplication.

Re: MaGL X2 Discussion. No raocows! NOT the sign up thread!
These are my rejected level names, plus a problem I've been having with the engine
The problem I'm having is with custom music. When I put the music file with the graphics, like the levels in MAGLX, SMBX refuses to play it. It works just fine if I put it in the same place as the level file, but as soon as I put it in with the graphics, nothing plays. Am I doing something wrong?
(edit) Fixed it. The music is working fine now, thanks.

1. Nope, not with vanilla SMBX anyway. There's probably some weird luna trickery that could make it work.FlockOfWingedDoors wrote:I looked for these answers but could not find them.

2. I think the general method is to put an invisible SMB1 axe right on the entrance/exit and make the event trigger when that dies. You can also use it to trigger events basically anywhere the player walks.
When you direct SMBX to the song put the folder name before it, like "LevelTitle/song.mp3"Killscreen256 wrote: The problem I'm having is with custom music.

Is there any way to have a layer appear in multiple sections, short of recreating it? Or should I be learning luna for my idea...

1) Not with the Default SMBX, unless the level is an autoscroll (in which case you have the layer scroll with the autoscroll), or you force the player to carry an item like a key or Toothy (in which case, i think you can attatch the layer to the item).FlockOfWingedDoors wrote:I looked for these answers but could not find them.

Throw that into Lunadll.txt under the correct Section #. Not that this method will only work the first time you enter that specific section.Code: Select all

Also, could I have an invisible enemy tail them or something?

Re: MaGL X2 Discussion. No raocows! NOT the sign up thread!
Seeing as I'm not totally familiar with SMBX Link, could anyone enlighten me as to what kind of interesting game mechanics are introduced when you play as him? The spike bounce is about all that comes to mind, and the fact that he can't pick up stuff means I have to remove that from any gameplay involving him.
Re: MaGL X2 Discussion. No raocows! NOT the sign up thread!
You can't carry stuff traditionally, but you can "store" keys and bombs on slashing them to use them later. His powerups also work differently - like climbing surfaces he turns into a fairy to 'fly' up and this lingers a bit, while his cape equivalent gives you more or less infinite flight I think?arabsalmon wrote:Seeing as I'm not totally familiar with SMBX Link, could anyone enlighten me as to what kind of interesting game mechanics are introduced when you play as him?

Create a playground area with a few different powerups around and give it a try? He's definitely got the most distinctively different gameplay.

Re: MaGL X2 Discussion. No raocows! NOT the sign up thread!
Well, I'm definitely pleased with my level names, even though I applied for hard. I actually had some trouble trying to narrow down a single one to use, lol.
I really like how smoothly this has been flowing so far. I'm also very content with the pace Horikawa is working at; it's very likely the best I've ever seen out of any event organizer!

Re: MaGL X2 Discussion. No raocows! NOT the sign up thread!
Well, I got all of my level done today except for the last room. That's kind of an uneasy feeling, like when you're ripping through an exam and feeling good and then all of a sudden you get wigged out because you notice you've marked too many consecutive answers as B or C. I've already tested it a bazillion times and tweaked things, so I'm confident it runs and flows fine, but just ..... kinda, HNNNGGG, y'know?
I had a lot of possibilities in my title options. It seems mine were not as Mad Libby as some of y'alls, and could have made some legit levels. I'm actually thinking of doing a minisode with some of my rejected level titles and a few others I saw here, if I can pound it out before the deadline.
