No really. It's a chaos. A disaster area. An earthquake site. A ch-
Well let's forget that before the mods get mad (hey, mod, mad, that rimes). That's not the point. Let's get down to the actual point. Will I or will I not be able to make an entry to the contest with legacy?

are you unable to download it in the first place?


Anyway, there's a level that I sent into an unofficial contest (by Thwomp King) long time ago and it has never been given results. I assume I could use it here (and tweak it)?

All levels should be made in SMBX 2.0 ONLY. (EDIT: plz inform me if ur using versions like 1.4.4 or 1.3.0.1)

So... Can I use 1.4.4 or not?

I don't get what you're trying to say in that, we can use and 1.4 or 1.3 if we inform you even tho you said SMBX2 only? I don't understand.

Yes you may, but levels made in 1.3.0.1 aren't of equal importane so.... yeah..

No (or if u want yes) because Wohlstand (a russian guy in the forum) downloaded it from the Chinese (obviously) server, so it tries to behave like SMBX but it actually isn't a real SMBX version to be honest....

btw yeah u may use 1.4.4 but there may be neccesary precautions in doing this tho.... you'll see later...

I meant that you may use other versions but u have to inform me so i can see which SMBX version i have to run to see how your level is (really)....

I don't understand why u want to tweak this Cedur, there may be some awfully bad consequenses and this contest ''may'' be locked....

btw according to my calculations, there is a 63.57% chance that this will fail, so i recommend you to not tweak it....

There's no reason people need to inform you about using 1.3.0.1 since levels made in 1.3 are compatible with SMBX2.

another btw i tried running a smbx 2.0 level in 1.3.0.1 and unsuccessful results..... looks like your theory is a little false to me imo (no harm here, i promise)..

I think you got it the wrong way round.
A 1.3 level should work in a SMBX 2.0.

So you should allow 1.3 levels.

I think ur right, but just to inform you that 1.3 levels aren't equal in importance in this contest as 2.0 levels....

to be more exact:
> I sent a level to that contest more than a year ago, it was also not really completed (as in it could be completed but I wanted it to be larger)
> it never was judged and that contest came to nothing
> I never published it elsewhere
> so I would think about using it here and improving it to what I originally wanted it to be (or whatever I feel like doing now)

in official contests you are also allowed to submit levels you've worked on before given that they haven't been published or showcased.

Also you've got some interested people, that's still better than previous unofficial contests. Even if it's just a handful of participants, it's pretty honorable.

You're right, Cedur, i feel like earning a profit xd

btw good luck!! (just saying)

6, but the host appears to have gone inactive recently, so I don't know if the contest is still happening.

Yeah I also thought this comes to nothing and thus I did nothing.
