Wow this is pawsome! Finally I can hide my easter eggs in my levels with this API(?)!

bumpty bumpty
I have a couple questions about this
1. are npcs hidden by this?
2. does the nsmbwalls layer need to be hidden or shown while actually testing the level?

You Can Simply Use Sizable Objects For Fake Walls Since They Only Have Collision On The Top Of Them.

Yes. The "fake wall" effect is rendered above NPCs.Mosaic wrote:bumpty bumpty

It needs to be hidden. If it's shown, the player can interact with the blocks on it.Mosaic wrote:2. does the nsmbwalls layer need to be hidden or shown while actually testing the level?

Also, yeah, that doesn't work.

Sorry for the bump, but I tried to test this feature, following MechDragon777's instructions, but this showed up:

The library is being instructed to draw a GIF. This generally doesn't work in Beta 3. Use PNG graphics.8lue Storm wrote:Sorry for the bump, but I tried to test this feature, following MechDragon777's instructions, but this showed up:

I made .png only what I used as fake walls. I guess I should make everything .png, then. Thanks for the advice!

Ok. This is really good but when i looked at the instructions on the PGE Wiki but it didn't really make sense to me.
Which Lunadll.lua file do i use?
Hopefully you make a video tutorial because i really don't get it.
But I love this!!!

What part of the code draws the nsmbwalls layer as transparent (when player is behind the layer)? Because I want to change it to be more like the original and not draw the blocks at all.

So, this is pretty recent, and only happens in MaGLX3 build, but this is broken. The stuff inside are not the walls that was suppose to hide the layer in a lower opacity and the stuff underneath it, but instead, a zoomed out version of what's underneath.
Do you think you can fix this?

Oh no that's really bad especially for one of the projects I am working on. Let's hope Sambo fixed this or rip very cool script.

Hey everyone, I found a quick workaround for this API in the latest SMBX2 PAL Release. You need to locate two lines of code which contain the imagic's ScaleTexture() method. These are within a loop in nsmbwalls.update() event:
and this one:
Replace the multipliers of the radious (variable "r") in this way:
And there you go. This makes the camera to shrink too, which isn't a desired behavior, but it's a minor detail. I planned to rewrite this API since imagic isn't recommended anymore, but this fix does the job btw.
Code: Select all
xRays[k]:ScaleTexture((800) / (2 * r), (600) / (2 * r))Code: Select all
overlays[k]:ScaleTexture((800) / (2 * r), (600) / (2 * r))Code: Select all
xRays[k]:ScaleTexture((800) / (19.8 * r), (600) / (11.3 * r))Code: Select all
overlays[k]:ScaleTexture((800) / (19.8 * r), (600) / (11.3 * r))Re: NSMBWalls.lua - Fake Walls! (IMPORTANT UPDATE) - link fixed

I think QuantumMeanance gave me a version which involved inverting something.

THIS IS THE DEFINITIVE WORKAROUND:
EDIT: you just can get rid of the xRays[k]:ScaleTexture() and overlays[k]:ScaleTexture() lines, but watch out the following step:
Before each ScaleTexture, imagic.Circle{} is assigned to xRays and overlays respectively. Look for "filltype", then change imagic.TEX_FILL for imagic.TEX_PLACE. For example:
And now we're done! Now it is exactly zoomed and the effect works properly!

texoffsetX = (centerOnScreenX - 400)/800,
texoffsetY = (centerOnScreenY - 300)/600
