LunaDLL - Help thread & Function Examples -

[DarkShadeX]

This thread can be used to ask questions about LunaDLL and it's functions!

How Does LunaDLL Work?
-Before you can use it it's highly recommended to get the latest version! (currently v.8+)
LunaDLL can modify codes ingame and thus,can be used to make some outstanding gimmicks and features!
All you have to do is to place LunaDll.dll into the games root folder (where the exe is located),and then make a text document called lunadll.txt in the level
folder (Where all your level specific gfx is located) with the LunaDLL Functions!
But you also can use a text document called lunaglobal.txt or lunaworld.txt (RECOMMENDED !) which you need to place into the episode folder (where your world file is located) to trigger those codes in ALL levels of that episode!

You forget to replace the boomerang with bomb for Toad.
Also could you please add my autoscroll and save after cheating codes?

I think this thread looks useful for code lists.

[Julia Pseudo]

This is a great topic which I'd suggest sticking alongside similar topics (like the NPC code list) in Help & Support. LunaDLL is pretty freaking awesome.

[DarkShadeX]

Updated the First post a bit.

[Willhart]

This will keep certain NPCs from despawning, and they will continue processing while not on the screen. It does not seem to work with generators though.

NPCMemSet,205,0x12A,55,0,0,w

In this example npc 205 is the metroid wall walker thing.

[DarkShadeX]

For everyone who uses the latest (yet a lil' buggy lunadll version 8+ (the one with the hud bugs))
Heres an code to HIDE the WHOLE Hud!
LunaControl,2,1,0,0,0,0

[KateBulka]

[Veudekato]

NPCMemSet,10,0x88,32,0,0,df

And here's the gravity codes

Falling (12 is max and smbx default, lower numbers are less weight)
MemAssign,0x00B2C6F4,2,0,0,0,w

Jumping (20 is smbx default, higher numbers are more jumping)
MemAssign,0x00B2C6DC,45,0,0,0,w

How do I make more players? Like with supermario4, supermario8, supermario16, etc. I know it involves activating cheats, but how?

[FanofSMBX]

You may not want to. I've heard a lot of lunadll stuff only affects player 1

You may not want to. I've heard a lot of lunadll stuff only affects player 1

It's just for a cutscene though, I need two instances of the player for it. But I can make it work without it.

Use Lua for 2 Player support.

Hey Darkshade, with the Gravitational and Jumping codes, is it possible while using them to disable normal jumping and make a player fall straight down when they run off the edge of a block like in Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker? I'm not overly familiar with these codes so any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
