Super Mario Bros. X - Grand Extravaganza! (AWARDS!)

Stupid question but... what is incompatible with those two versions?

1.4 runs on an entirely different physics engine from 1.3.x/2.0 while also boasting new features like different enemy AI and event types, which aren't present in 1.3.x/2.0.

Litterally everything.

I love how the deadline is 1st April...

Well, for me, and some of us, the deadline will fall on the 2nd...

Yeh, I dont live in the US, so it will most likely end on the 2nd for me as well.

Good thing there is no rules against using 38-A, becuase i'm using Super Koopas in my level.

1.4 isn't allowed. You can only use 2.0 beta 3 or anything relating to that.

I knew you were gonna add this once i ssaid 38-a
I mean, I don't know how to recreate the behaviors of super koopas in lunalua. In fact i don't even know how to use lunalua for making apis.
Actually, 1.4 runs in teascript & it's forums has a forum for ideas for the next update, while 2.0 is written in lua, and I'm surprised it's hard to convert between the 2 for the developers.

Actually, no. 38A's SMBX thing runs on Visual Basic 6. Teascript is just an asset to it, a programming language specific to that engine. 2.0 uses Lua and other resources, such as the PGE editor. Both use different file formats and 38A has different physics and other things that make even the structures of levels incompatible in some ways.

Also, please don't discuss 2.0/38A's engine here. This is the topic for the level contest

I'm in.

Hopefully this time I won't forget the NPC codes.

Am I lucky to live in the Host's time zone?

Am I lucky to live in the Host's country? No. But I bet you are the only one living in the same time zone as him.

I love how the deadline is 1st April...

I'm sure just because the deadline is April 1st doesn't mean we'll get any joke levels. But I could be wrong, maybe someone out there feels like being funny during the contest.

[MacDuckBeat]

Just a quick question, can I make a level without using LunaLua "API's"? Because I don't really know/I'm confuse how to use it. And I would like to participate the contest by the way.

There are normally joke levels anyway, there will probably be more though for this one because of the date.

Go ahead. The judges won't mark you down for not using LunaLua. As I've seen other people saying before, LunaLua is just another thing you can use to make your level different. As long as your level is good, there's no reason why it can't get a high mark. Several people have placed high in contests without using Lua.
(I don't know how to use it either, Layers and events is sort of my limit, although I would like to learn Lua stuff)

Well it sure makes the levels less basic and repetitive.

Judges won't have any bias against whether or not you used LunaLua. As long as it's a fun, well-designed level, it doesn't really matter what assets you use to get there

[Emral]

Expect the deadline to change because we agreed on "6 week submission time" before the topic was posted which would put it at April 15th.

This is why I should never ever ever be allowed to use a calendar ever

While you're at it, you might also want to update the contestant list as well.

Less than a month to do it was quite jarring
