This looks great! This is going to make editing NPCs so much easier now, I can see this coming in handy.

You mean ME?

Well I left because of college studies and I have to admit this is better than mine was.
And sadly my computer had crashed and along with it the source code...

But I'm glad to see someone gave it another shot and got gold this time!

Easy fix, thanks for reporting

Start/Play button never seems to work for me.

Posted: **Tue Jun 17, 2014 7:41 pm**

Can you give me some more details? You need to make sure that a couple of things are working first.

-The height and width are properly configured.
-The amount of frames are correct
-The framespeed is correct (default speed is 8;100%)

If you're loading just the graphics files via the NPC Animation's "Browse" function then you need to check off the proper parameters (height, width, frames, etc) and then click stop and then play.

Bump because I'm confirming that this works under Linux
Just install the following package:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install mono-complete

And run it via terminal just in case

Code: Select all

mono "SMBX NPC Editor.exe"

And you'll get this

Report any and all bugs regarding this. I'm running Mono 3.10

I have NO idea what i am doing with this.. Do i open a file?
What do i do? I don't see any instructions.

Posted: **Tue Jul 15, 2014 12:07 am**

You open text files that correspond to the npc assigned to it. Example would be npc-1.txt would be the npc code for the goomba in your level folder. If there is no text file, just make an empty one and name it npc-## (replace ## with the npc number) and open it in the editor. The image to the right will only appear if you have a graphic for it in the level folder.

Gotcha... kinda irritated at how custom things are set up.. i end up copying a LOT of graphics for each level just to do all my custom stuff.. each world should have some how had it's own graphics files at least for like.. players and NPCs.

Actually you can make a new one and do a "save as" and save it as the npc-##.txt

Also, if you want episode-wide custom graphics, just put them in the directory that has your .lvl/.wld files

I don't think i have figured out everything yet when it comes to that.
I do know i am having issues with editing the SMB3 koopa.
I changed him into a larger sprite, both for regular movement as well as when hit and turned into a shell.
But for some reason in shell form no matter if the shell is moving around or not or in Mario's hands, it just constantly spins.
Did i do something wrong there?

Does that shell have added frames?

Posted: **Wed Jul 16, 2014 1:26 am**

Actually less frames, only 3.. could that be it?

Mikepjr wrote:Actually less frames, only 3.. could that be it?

Yep that's it. I believe Koopa shells need to have the same exact amount of frames in order for them to behave proper in game.

Posted: **Wed Jul 16, 2014 8:56 am**

What if i added directions to it? Like it looks different going left and right? That an issue to?

That's an issue only if you forgot to add "framestyle=1" to the NPC code, I guess.

I'm actually not sure about that. There's only one way to find out. Try it with the same amount of frames and left and right directions and then see what happens.

Actually, I'm curious about the config you have. Open it up in the NPC Editor and post a screenshot here so I can see :3

Posted: **Wed Jul 16, 2014 12:13 pm**

Sure thing.

I am making these enemies from Congo's Caper, but for some reason after i hit them, they sit and spin on the ground.. or rather.. animate.. and when i pick it up, they still sit there animating. It's the darnedest thing.
