Can I know why PGE looks like that? I liked the version I had (the one that comes with SMBX2) and I downloaded this one from the PGE Forums, did I really download the recent version or the one I had was an older a version

I'm posting this because I don't feel comfortable in this version, there isn't even a button to select the custom items (it actually has but only shows the custom elements and isn't even in the level tools menu)

[Wohlstand]

PopYoshi, It's the absolutely same PGE Editor as inside of SMBX2. The only difference in default settings. On the side of SMBX2 the Tilesets Item Box is shown by default. Item Browser is shown by default in regular set. Default settings are dependent on config pack you are using. You always can switch visibility of any widgets as you want. You need to show the "Caja de tileset" through "Ver" menu.

Still my only complain is that when I had PGE before in the "Herramientas de Nivel" menu there was an option to view the custom graphics, now it shows the same stuff but without the "Personalizado" option (Shows Sand, Grass, Ice, Castle, Cloud, Cave 1. Cave 2, etc but not the custom option), I have to search them using the "Show Custom Elements" and it only shows the custom graphics but not along the legacy graphics

Do you installed Editor 0.3.1.15? I think you need to install the 0.3.2-dev version from the Laboratory (SMBX2 does use of the Laboratory branch of PGE toolchain which is coming from every auto-build from latest GIT state of PGE repo which is most fresh). Yeah, I need to make one another release in nearest time.

I's weird, I swear that the version I had you had to put Mario/Luigi instead of flags with their letters

[Wohlstand]

I's weird, I swear that the version I had you had to put Mario/Luigi instead of flags with their letters

It's the "Super Mario" theme by SquishyRex which turns player start point flags into Mario & Luigi. You can switch the theme through "Herramientas -> Opciones de aplicación" and go into "Ver" tab and switch the theme in the "Tema" box
Player start points are part of theme and can be altered by it.

I'm starting to believe that the "Personalizado" option in "Herramientas de nivel" is part of the theme too, because I was using the PGE that comes with SMBX2. I need help, I don't want to keep looking for my custom graphics in "Show Custom Elements" and when I want a legacy item I have to return and again go to show custom elements, it's annoying :<

Oh, yeah, since some moment I have reworked the toolbox and instead of "[Personalizado]" category I have made the settings menu (a wrench icon) to toggle showing defaults only, custom only, etc. that allows to use categories per those things, adds ability to change sorting type, sorting order, more search criterias, etc. Did you used Beta3? Yeah, that's pretty ancient PGE Editor in it, and it's most buggy. The checkbox inside [wrench] menu is the same as [Personalizado] category, it was just moved into the new place. Do you want to remember the state of "Mostar elementos personalizados" to don't reset every level switch, etc.?

It was more comfortable, just that. At least for me it was easier to navigate because I had the legacy items and the custom items in a whole menu through categories, but Mostrar Elementos Personalizados only shows the custom items but not along the legacy items
So I have to switch to the default items and when I want the custom items I have to click in the wrench again
It isn't anything big, but the [Personalizado] category made navigation through items quick

[Wohlstand]

Anything "legacy items" is not a part of PGE Editor itself, it's the just a name of category created inside SMBX2's config pack to specify elements are legacy in SMBX's itemset.

Still I think you get my point :b

PopYoshi: It's the style that comes with the most recent MaGLX3 version. I already said I don't like it compared to the prior Beta 3 style :>

PGE Editor 0.3.1.11 that was in Beta3 is a worst and most buggy version of Editor that was. However, categories of items are NOT a part of Editor itself, they are part of config pack (that you can find in the "configs/" folder), and settings in files of config pack are only declaring categories and groups of elements you'll can see in the Editor.

[PopYoshi]

Welp, I'll see what I do. Personally I didn't find a single bug in that version

[Wohlstand]

Welp, I'll see what I do. Personally I didn't find a single bug in that version

PGE Editor 0.3.1.11 had a LOT OF bugs include various crashes and others. The example is that sceneries on world map will be aligned incorrectly. Or some glitches are may happen while you doing undo/redo. I had lot of reports since first Beta3 release about crashes and unstable work. I have fixed everything of that.

[PopYoshi]

Yeah, the only thing that mocked me about the Beta 3 PGE was that player position can be annoying to place
That and the only crashes I suffered were when I removed too many elements at the same time (like remove every "number of NPC" of this section, but it happened only after the second time and if I do it often, yet I could use it happily)

[Wohlstand]

That's very like to the:

Code: Select all

- Fixed crash caused by phantom R-Tree entries with dead pointer and zero size

That was fixed since 0.3.1.13

[PopYoshi]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
who knows
I'm pretty sure the bug I mentioned is different from that
But alright
I'll search for the Beta 3 Build
