Yes he is. Actually he has one released already, nothing real special about it aside from the timer generator, it has two other script generators, a change character script and something to do with a string.

Sounds good, the first one is fine but it is kind of hard to understand in some points.

Hmmm... Even Though I Have The Right Things, It Still Won't Work. I Have The Text File Renamed To "lunaDLL".

EDIT: I Did Rename It To "lunadll" Sorry to Confuse You. It Still Won't Work...

rename it to just "lunadll" without caps.

Sry for double post,edit button doesnt seem to work for me right now . _ .

Anyways is the lunadll.txt file IN the level folder?
(levelfile.lvl\levelfile (the folder))

You Mean Like For Example (This Is My Path): (SMBX\worlds\Custom Made Levels\*Level Name*\lunadll.txt) (That .txt Is NOT Part of The File Name)

Is That What You Mean?

That should be right but just to make sure your correct, the folder that contains your graphics, npc ect that would be your level folder. If that's where it's at then your lunadll txt is in the right spot, then the only possible reason would be how you got your script set up(missing command or wrong timing or something) Just double check the script and use the lunadll guide as reference if you figure you forgot something.

Well, I Used The LunaDLL Text Generator To Generate Something, But It Didn't Work.

Some of the commands are located are located in the guide and follow certain guidelines read it over few times to figure out the structure of the script I did and I am starting to get the hang of the simpler stuff. I haven't played around with the text generator yet but I think it's what ever you input that it reads and outputs also double check everything in your script to make sure it's correct. Some of the commands won't run on the during load level time ether

Never Mind, I Have To Put In In The Actual Folder Where The Graphics Go!

Is it possible to enter a level only one time with LunaDLL? I've like forgotten like every code..

leif_erikson · Postby **leif_erikson** » Tue Mar 18, 2014 8:03 pm

If it's from the overworld, probably not. If it's a warp in a hub... I'm planning to add a way to set variables so you can set one when a level has been entered and deny access.

What about the ability to doublejump with Leaf/Tanookie and not fly/glide?

You'd probably notice that when you try to visit http://www.gamearchaeology.com the site says Bandwidth Exceeded, so I thought you might want to know you can still download the zip file from the internet archive
http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www ... tender.zip My bad, I should've checked to see if it actually opened first

The reference and tutorial are available from Google Cache

I've uploaded the file to my personal site in case anyone wants it (as a 7z file for better compression, you can use 7-Zip from http://www.7-zip.org to extract it. 7-Zip similar to WinRAR but with a better compression format, is free, and can still extract rar files.)

Here's a mirror hosted on Copy, I'm not a big fan of some "cloud storage" sites as using a proprietary system can cause vendor lockin. But the owner of Copy is Barracuda Networks, who defended ClamAV against patent troll Trend Micro. They're trust worthy. Anyway here's the link:

I like the lunadll page it better explains the the commands and how to use them

Is it possible to use this to give Toad/Link/Peach five hearts, similar to adding the death counter and timer?

leif_erikson · Postby **leif_erikson** » Thu Mar 20, 2014 2:08 am

I made a special system to do that, which can be activated with the HeartSystem command. (the heart display still displays 3 hearts. it's more work than it's worth to change that)

Cool! Does the X+Y display move with the player and screen, or static placed?
Also what uses does ForceFacing have? If I were to make a walking Snifit always face Mario, would it fire bullets in Mario's direction, or in the direction it's walking?
