Including non-standart NPCs in block via notepad

Postby Wohlstand » Sat Apr 26, 2014 10:32 am

Hello, I shall tell about including ANY NPC in block, if you edit LVL file via notepad:

1) Read the LVL file specification about blocks settings:
Spoiler: show

You can get it here:
http://engine.wohlnet.ru/docs/_SMBX64/f ... iption.pdf

2) Open level file in SMBX editor, and check the necessary block coordinates in debugger.
Warning, you must set it accurate, by left-up corner of block
Spoiler: show
Image
3) find necessary block in LVL file, using the coordinates information
and set number of need NPC:
Image
0 - block is empty, 1-99 - block contains coins by 1 to 99, 1000+ - block contains NPC with ID= value-1000. I.e. if value=1056, block contains NPC-56.
NPC List in PDF: http://engine.wohlnet.ru/docs/_SMBX64/O ... 20List.pdf
NPC List in ODS: http://engine.wohlnet.ru/docs/_SMBX64/O ... 20List.ods

Result: (after saving LVL file via notepad, you must start level test without saving, or ReOpen same file in menu file/open):
Spoiler: show
Included Bowser:

Included big boo:

This is quite an interesting concept and it appears to build on SkyBlueYoshi's idea of making blocks of any size. I can't wait to see the possible gimmicks that can be squeezed out of this idea.
