Next Lua project

Hello guys,

As the poll has ended now, here is how I will continue from here:

First, I'll do the boss pack which was by far the winner of the poll. Afterwards I will do the 2nd and 3rd place of the poll being the SMB3 Mod and powerus and the powerups systems, starting with SMB3 due to slightly more personal interest, comments and collaboration partners in sight. Also, regarding SMB3, I'd like to know if, when doing the frog suit, should try to stay close to the original sloppy controls on land, slightly modify it to make it control butter while keeping the low jump or strain away from the original and sort of do a Mario Odyssey x SMB3 Crossover by giving frog Mario a high jump as in Odyssey.

As I am obviously not the only one to do Lua coding, feel free to PM me if you're trying one of the things I plan to do as well as I'd very much enjoy starting a collaboration to avoid the same work beeing done by two people independently or should recognize me using altered versions of your code without crediting you appropiately or you wanting your code to be used by other people.

If finished and posted (here or in a seperate topic I create then) you can use my scripts without any need to give credit to me as providing scipts that are useful for people is enough reward and respect for me and my work. Keep in mind, thoght that other people, whose code I modified and are credited by me might have a different opinion on this so please remember to give credit to them.

Looking forward to your comments and votes
best regards
yoshiegg

If you wanna do custom powerups, I encourage you to take a look at anotherpowerup to make the whole process of making one a lot less painful.

Thanks for recommending me that script. Already had downloaded that and definitely planned to take inspiration from it. However, atm I just want to wait a bit for more comments to avoid writing a script that later on nobody uses, except for maybe myself if I got someday enough time and endurance as well as decent enough LD skills to create an entire episode.

I think it would be cool with a SMB3 Inventory.

Do you mean that the SMB3 Scripts would be your favourite option? And if so, do you like the whole block of ideas or just the inventory one in particular?

I think the entire thing would be great for a SMB3 styled episode, sadly SMB3Overhaul.lua no longer works, I'll see if I can fix it up for beta 4. I think this idea would be cool for some episodes :)

New battle modes got my attention

Battle mode is generally interesting, problem being, you can't really play online/have a friend locally to play with them.

Wow that's quite funny. I have been working on the SMB3 inventory system a while back, along with the chest NPC in Toad Houses. I have showcased it before in Discord, and since I'm not sure how to polish it to release for myself, I would want to see how you would do it.

Here's the gif I showcased in Discord back then:

Yes, the battle mode is ok as it is atm but not more, so I wan't to fix that if more people are interested in that and I get it to work properly so battling in SMBX is actually fun and an option worth considering when you have a friend over.

And at this point, I want to give Random.Nick credit for the amazing battle modes in his, since 2019 unfortunately discontinued, Mario Fangame Power Star Frenzy which made me come up with that idea of having something similar for SMBX.

I actually have been working on an smb3 HUD, its almost finished and just missing starcoins, although i havent worked in it lately.
I also worked on animations but i dont know if i should continue them.

(this level is just SMB3X's level 1, its just that i had the animations installed there)

  • A boss pack including a Thwomp, a Lakitu an angry sun and a parabeetle boss
Like the infamous Homing Thwomp that's been in so many SMW hacks?

I think so, since I suggested the Custom Bosses. Well orginally only the Parabeetle one

I used to play capture the flag at church camp back in the 90's with 200+ people. That was a lot of fun.

I voted for more bosses. I don't care if they are from Mario, DKC or custom etc, aqua, flying or castle etc and I don't care if it's 1 boss or 10 bosses. Whatever you want to do is fine. Anything helps and this game could really use some more bosses. If SMM2 can do it so can we.

Getting Fryguy and Reznor was nice. I love more bosses. They are simple to add to a level and fun to play around with in the editer.

Having said that you should do whatever you feel like doing to avoid burn out.

Funny you bring that guy up. I actually did him a while ago, though not with the side-slamming behavior.

I want it to be like SMM2, which is basically option 2 but also with walking on water when holding stuff.
Also, do SMW power balloon in either SMW or SMM2 style.
