How do you extend the size of blocks?

How do you extend the size of blocks?I am sure it is possible to resize blocks, can someone just tell me if it is and how
you do it? Thanks! |

Re: How do you extend the size of blocks?Well, there is the easy way, by just using PGE. It automatically resizes blocks according to their gfx dimensions.
Then there is the harder way, if you refuse to use PGE (for whatever reason): If you have a level that contains the block you want to resize, find out the coordinates of the block in the level. Then go to your level folder and open the .lvl file with the text editor. Then search for the coordinates of your block inside the text. Below the coordinates it should say 32 32 if your block is 1x1 block wide. The first number stands for the x dimensions and the second one for the y dimensions. Edit those numbers and voilà you changed the block size. It is important that you do save your level in the editor before doing so and after you edit the txt DO NOT save your level in the editor. Instead, refresh it, and your block should have it's new size. |

Re: How do you extend the size of blocks?Also, if you want a block to use the same size as another block that's in SMBX by default, you can use the block swap feature to "borrow" dimensions from other blocks. For example, if you want a 32x32 slope to be 32 pixels wide and 64 pixels high, you can place a vertical pipe piece (block-23 for example) and then use the Block Swap in the Debugger to swap it with the slope with the modified graphic. You can replace block-299, which is a 32x32 SMW grass slope, with a 32x64 slope graphic and then change every block's ID that's 23 to 299 and they will keep the dimensions of block-23 and use the graphic and properties of block-299.

Re: How do you extend the size of blocks?Thanks everyone! Just have one question, the block that I been trying to resize is the SMW
question mark block, I have managed to resize the actual block, but I don't know how to make it so when you hit the question mark block, it would change into a different block. What happens now is the 64x32 question mark block changes into a 32x32 block when hit. |

Re: How do you extend the size of blocks?Blocks that are interacted with like ? Blocks will change back to their default size after being hit. It's not something that can be fixed as far as I'm aware.

Re: How do you extend the size of blocks?Couldn't you also resize the SMW Hit Block? Only thing that wouldn't quite work out would be the coin effect. |
||
Re: How do you extend the size of blocks?I'm pretty sure that won't work (if you mean the graphic), because the hit(ted) block will be resized to its original sizes. The only thing you can do about this is to set a hidden big used ? Block on a New Layer and hide it, and when the big ? Block will be hit(ted) (it must be on another layer too), make that used ? block to appear and the ? block to hide (events). Not sure if this will work honestly, too. If you wanna try, use PGE. |

Re: How do you extend the size of blocks?You're right, oops. Events would probably work though. |
||
Re: How do you extend the size of blocks?Couldn't you just use the giant ? block? I know it's the smb3 version, but would that make to much of a difference?
|

Re: How do you extend the size of blocks?You could set custom graphic to that, so it won't look like SMB3. And what if he wants to make a block with size more than 64x64?

Re: How do you extend the size of blocks?Well, you should use PlatGEnWohl if you want t resize block.
