Have had an exactly same bug. Changing an ID inside ini file of the level tiles resolves the issue. Of course I did change a file name of NPC as well (changed only for the SMWmap stuff to not make a conflicts with NPCs from the episode root folder).

since it is inside a level file, it is at the very least not unreasonable to assume that vanilla effects which are purely visual and don't depend on the player object (such as screen effects) might work just as they do in a normal level
I feel ya, but there unfortunately really isn’t much we can do. The only way I could see this being made easier would be to add some sort of visual aid, similar to how to make lines in something like photoshop. Unfortunately, that would require a plug-in, something that I don’t know if it’s completed or not.Blackops Koopa wrote: ↑Thu Oct 17, 2024 7:58 pmi hate the spline system, its complicated to set it up and when i do set it up without giving me an error, when i try to move, it gives me an error stating "attempt to perform arithmetic on field "y" (a nil value)" i wish you could make paths without the spline system like in the base game world map maker
Editor plugins were not implemented at all, it will take ages to do.mariobrigade2018 wrote: ↑Thu Oct 17, 2024 9:14 pmI feel ya, but there unfortunately really isn’t much we can do.

now it is 2025 and the spline system is actually not hard to do. it's pretty easy.Blackops Koopa wrote: ↑Thu Oct 17, 2024 7:58 pmi hate the spline system, its complicated to set it up and when i do set it up without giving me an error, when i try to move, it gives me an error stating "attempt to perform arithmetic on field "y" (a nil value)" i wish you could make paths without the spline system like in the base game world map maker
Same issue, vanilla screen effects don`t work at all in overworld with smwMap.lua. Tested on example overworld.

it's not mentioned explicitly that they don't to my knowledge, and it's not at all strange to want to have extra visual effects on the overworld (such as rain or snow), so an inexperienced user could very easily assume them not working might be the result of an oversight
I am going to try again for a third time to make something similar to what you made here. I was trying to reinvent the wheel, but you had already made a blueprint to what I was trying to make: which was essentially tiles that function as a Star Count check or a currency exchange system.SpoonyBardOL wrote: ↑Sat May 15, 2021 2:18 pmI've made some extras for use with this lua pack. First off is a Crossroad object that auto-opens any selected paths once the crossroad itself is revealed, its appearance changes based on which paths are currently unlocked (thanks mutantvine code!) and it even has a locked function where you can set any combination of Stars or Star Coins to unlock it.
I've also ported some of the map sprites from Level Contest Japan (which were created by Enjl, I believe?), floating blocks, Walking NPCs, Jumping NPCs, and Patrolling NPCs (Charlie).
EDIT 3/28/24: Fixed an oversight which caused the requirements of unlockable Crossroads to display incorrectly if viewed in a certain order.
EDIT 4/5/24: Fixed another oversight which caused the crossroad object to return an error.
EDIT 4/15/25: Super belated edit but I realize now I neglected to mention the crossroads need to have names assigned, especially if you are using their locking functionality. And, much like paths, the names need to be distinct from one another. No update added or needed for this, just forgot this bit of instruction.
