SMBX2 PAL Release - Feedback, Questions and Bugs here!

[Quantumenace]

That worked, thanks!

Ah, I think the drawback is that an NPC's downward speed is limited to 12. Edit: Maybe it's 8?

my gif2png opens but then closes alone, what do I need to do to make it work?

I did it, thanks man, it helped me a lot.

Is there a way to make an animated ? block that has 6 frames? It doesn't seem possible to change the frames or framespeed for the blocks in the game.

You could draw over all blocks of an ID with lua's Graphics.draw function... no clean way to do it natively at the moment, but I could make a library for it for the time being... Check back in the lunalua forum in about an hour or two.

Why are effects sizes hardcoded now? No matter what I do, the effect of SMW Mario dying is cut to 32x32, while in other versions it is changed to 32x48, as it should be.
The same goes with npc-254(fairy), but it was present in 2.0 beta3 as well.

What i need to do in this moment?

Place the SMBX2 folder on the desktop and run it there. I presume the problem, however, stems from the folder name of the folder that you placed SMBX2 in.

This has been a bug in Beta 3 already and hasn't been fixed yet. You can use the following code to fix it for your level though:

Code: Select all

function onTick()
	for k,v in ipairs(Effect.get(EFFECT_ID)) do
		v.width = DESIREDWIDTH
		v.height = DESIREDHEIGHT
	end
end

Just replace the all-caps stuff.

Now it works properly, thanks for the tip.

Thanks, this'll help a lot. However, I'm still not very experienced in using Lua in SMBX. Can I trouble you with a working example I can look at?

The topic I linked to after the edit has a library you can import and used like described in that topic.

Is a custom Wiggler even possible right now? I've tried to import an 8-bit Wiggler and the Wiggler's head is approximately three blocks ahead of its body. On a turn, its head goes directly to the back of the body. I'm thinking it's a glitch, because I've even included transparency.

[Emral]

Without more details I won't be able to tell you what's wrong. Perhaps upload your level so I can take a look.

[marismb]

Uh.... what i need to do in this moment (After this two massage, background missing, and "skins" don't work)

[KorayD]

Without more details I won't be able to tell you what's wrong. Perhaps upload your level so I can take a look.

The level has nothing to do with it. Everything is alright until you set the graphic config for the Wiggler itself. Then, what happens is that the Wiggler's head gets set to the full X value. I'm pretty sure it's broken.

[Emerald Galaxy]

I have another question. How do I change the starman's invincibility duration?

Again, I can't help unless I can take a look for myself. Your descriptions are vague and unhelpful in this scenario. There must be something you're customizing and I need to know what it is and the simplest way to do that is for you to just upload what you're trying to do so I can take a look and see what's wrong for myself.

Starman section. Jam that into a npc-293.txt file.

Umm, it didn't seem to work. Did I do something wrong?

npc-293.txt

Code: Select all

gfxoffsetx=0
gfxoffsety=0
gfxwidth=32
gfxheight=32
width=32
height=32
framestyle=0
frames=4
framespeed=2
duration=5

Does this works for the Mega Mushroom too? The time
it lasts seems pretty short to me and I would like to do a level section with it.

Don't know if it was mentioned before, but I just found an issue with big switches (diamond, clubs, spades, hearts). When you finish that switch level, it is marked on the map as cleared and the first level on the map you enter will have the blocks changed, as intended, but when you leave that level (either by finishing or dying), all the blocks will be changed back and the switch on the map will return to its original position, which means that each time you finish the level, you have to go back to the switch again, and again, and again.











And another one is, when you hit the switch (inside the level), it doesn't stop the background music.
