Creating custom blocks of any size

[HenryRichard]

This also works if you use the "global swap" in the debugger (So you can make 32*16 slopes by swapping out pipes for them). It's eaisier than picking through the txt files, though not as easy as it is in PlatGEnWhol.

please...PlatGEnWohl* becouse Platformer game engine by wohlstand

PlatGEnWhol (what I wrote)

PlatGEnWohl (what you wrote)

EXACTLY different. EXACTLY.

srry for being annoying.

...
yeah it's the same

[Veudekato]

no, PlatGenWohl is true, becouse by WOHLSTAND. not WHOLSAND

THIS SHOULD BE STICKIED.

IT IS THE FUTURE OF SMBX.
THANK YOU!!

It probably won't get stickied unless a modified version of the tutorial for PGW is made. The tutorial posted here applies to SMBX and modifying blocks through Notepad to change their physical attributes.

I have big guide for editor, but some pages is not done:

Also, I will send request for stick when I start Beta of the Editor (it is nearly)

Cool!!
Then I will never lose this page!!
That means SM3DL Blocks for life!!

Didn't work for me. I copied the block code, opened SMBX, chose the block to resize, went to the debugger to find its coordinate, typed it in the code, typed its block ID, saved the code, and then the level, and then tested it, but nothing is resized. Is this method compatible for SMBX 1.3.0.1? And what should I save the code as? What did I do wrong?

1) did you find right block?
2) did you re-saved file with smbx (don't save modyfied file when you run test!)?
I think, you need to try use the PGE, where blocks resizing automatically to be fit into gfx size.

I'm not using PGE. I'm using the method Castlewars put here. And how do I make a modified version of the code?

I think, you need learn more about LVL file format:
http://engine.wohlnet.ru/docs/_SMBX64/f ... iption.pdf
If you know them you also can put into blocks any impossible npc's into the blocks.
If your level have too much elements, to found necessary block will be difficult. If you learn this only, try to make tiny levels first before you will find blocks faster. And time-by-time you will get many skills of hard core.
But I'm recommend to start use pge, it will save lots of your time.

P.S. Good luck with hardcoring

[DaSpongeBobMan]

Not that.(No offense) Can someone help me with this?

[Wohlstand]

If you wanna for right algorithm, try this:
1) save modified lvl file
2) if it already opened, do testing/reopening without saving; or open them and if you changed right block, it will shown correctly, but check position of target block again!

Also check which data fields you modifying.

Is this for PGE? Can someone upload a video showing how to resize blocks without PGE?

This I means for manual txt editing with notepad.
I have video how to change block contents via notepad. It is similar but you need to edit another fields of same blocks.

[DaSpongeBobMan]

What about resizing blocks? Could upload a video using the method without PGE to resize blocks?

ffs the video Wohlstand uploaded IS without PGE

[Wohlstand]

I sayd, difference is TINY:

Here I edited "including npc" field.
Do SAME which on this video, but edit instead the width and height values (default 32 and 32).
It is simple and easy to understand, and because I gave you the lvl file specification, because in them was documented EACH value of lvl file.

i want to resize a ?-Block, but if i hit it in the test, it shrinks back into it´s standart-size...
How to change the hited-block-size too?

...via hexing of blocksize via lunalua, because when you hits a block, SMBX doing a transformation of it via build-in width-height values, and therefore your block gets default size back after you hited it and when it has been transformed
