This... Thing.

Postby Anphiba » Thu Apr 24, 2014 9:34 pm

Ok, I'm using Valtteri's GFX Pack for a project I'm doing. The problem is - SMW Mario's death animation doesn't completely show in the game. Valtteri didn't include a note telling about the height change or the witdh change. It's been forever since I messed around with this, and nowadays everybody else is saying that it's not possible to change the size. I really need help. Can someone make a notepad named "effect-3" and "effect-5" for me?

Effects can't be changed like that, only NPCs can. Sorry.

I'm pretty sure the player effects resize automatically without notepads.
(FYI, the enemies effects seem to be based on their hit boxes, so if you put
Height=32
Width=32
Gfxwidth=48
Gfxheight=48
The effect will be 32x32. Weird, huh? I'll bet that's because it counts only the 32x32 as an "NPC" for it's calculations.)

I think those Effects can work without any notepads (although effect on a notepad is a useless thing anyway). Maybe they work as it is what you gaved to us.

Oh. Well, I thought it would work at first, but only the head of the sprite shows up. Maybe I should talk to Valtteri about this, since I got this from his GFX Pack. I thought he would have found out about the problem and fixed it when he saw it.

So, let me get this straight - Adding a notepad for the player effect won't help at all?

Huh. It works fine for me.

So if that only works for you and not for @Anphiba, it is probably something like "Game behaves differently on different Countries". Here is what I mean but differently related.

The thing is: I haven't messed around with effects as much, and I don't remember it either.
this is what I put:

Effect-3 (Mario)
width=32
height=48

Effect-5 (Luigi)
width=32
height=54


And that's it. If there's anything else I need to fix it, please tell me.
If it really is true that you can't fix it, then... I don't know.

How would you feel about the original SMB3 effects being recolored to SMW? It wouldn't be ideal, but it also wouldn't be glitchy.

Have you tried the gfxheight and gfxwidth codes?

I guess that would work. I'd rather have an actual death sprite instead of a floating head.

All right, these should work. Found them credited to Hyperdex in the Ultimate GFX Pack: https://www.mediafire.com/?p8dhrrfi6mpd8kw
