No offense; your episode is made in the old SMBX editor. Almost all the episodes made in this year are for SMBX2 beta 4 and they contain new things from the editor like new enemies or new blocks, so your episode probably has limitations because it was made in SMBX(oh I repeated that part in the beginning).

Weirdgoomba4932, that's absolutely doesn't matter by which tools the episode was made (even the entire episode was written in notepad by hands and file specification!), the author worked hard on the episode and it was made good!

Anyway, don't forget that SMBX2 isn't alone, there are SMBX38A and TheXTech were exist as independent branches of SMBX
Here you can read more about SMBX branches: https://wohlsoft.ru/pgewiki/Branches_of ... io_Bros._X

This is the SMBX64-compatible episode which means, it will work at all SMBX branches with the same behaviour

Explanations:
Spoiler: show
  • The SMBX64 Standard is the name of standard that defines SMBX 1.3's specifics and supported techologies and features.
  • SMBX-38A is the alternative remake of SMBX Engine developed by chinese developer 5438A38A. Also known as "SMBX 1.4" but it isn't 1.4, it's "SMBX-38A", so, please don't call it "1.4" to don't confuse between engines.
  • TheXTech is the modern, cross-platform, and extended port of SMBX, directly branched off the SMBX 1.3 and ported into C++, made after its source was released on February 2, 2020.
  • SMBX2 - is an extension mod over the hacked SMBX 1.3 executable made with using LunaLua framework, released in 2016'th year.

Btw, I started to play an episode (using TheXTech engine), and I found some little bugs at two levels (maybe I will find something also at other levels once I get more progress), so:

At the "Japan mountain" level:
Try to put this bush slightly lower to make it being cleaner edge between the ground; Disable the auto-align (snap by the grid at Moondust Editor) option to put elements without the alignment:
Image

Here is a junk rail BGO appears:
Image

At the "Deep jungle" level, you forgot to put the death effects for wasps:
Image

At the desert level, you forgot to add the "nofireball" option for carpets, aren't you expected that flying carpets can be easily shooted by fireballs?
Image

I'll tell more if I'll find something at other levels during the playthrough. And still, episode is good :fox: :+1:

Also, I like this way to deny certain character, LOL :D :

Yes I know about the problem of the magic carpets, sorry about that, I didn't know how to solve this problem, I think I tried to write the nofirebals but it didnt help.

I'll try to check some, and will help you here

Okay, this works:

Code: Select all

gfxwidth=64
gfxheight=48
width=64
height=10
playerblocktop=1
npcblock=0
npcblocktop=1
nohurt=1
noyoshi=1
nofireball=1
nogravity=1
noiceball=1
frames=8
framestyle=0
I also tuned some other parameters to make this thing being better ;)

P.S. At the hidden room, the exit door should be on the same layer as other exit-related BGOs, otherwise, you can quit the level before beating the boss. I made the fix, so, please verify the result ;)

The "BEST" place for the bat: every time I quit the level, it hurts the character, he-he :smirk:

Forgot to reply here, I completed this episode a while ago. So, if not count the small bugs I found and noticed here, the episode is good!
