Super Mario Bros. X Forums

I've been using SMBX for a quite a long time now, but I've only recently started using 2.0b4 and am working on a Wario episode.
I can't figure out how to have Wario be the selected player from the launcher, or from when the episode starts. Is there any way to do this?

Sorry if this has been asked before, but I couldn't find any helpful threads about this.
Thank you in advance!

for note, this is all ive found...


the 'Disable characters', i want only Wario to be playable, how can i set that?

For the time being you're gonna have to put this block of code into both your episode-wide luna.lua and map.lua:

function onStart()
player:transform(CHARACTER_WARIO)
end

If you already have a function onStart, simply put the player:transform line into the existing onStart, rather than adding a second onStart.

Woah! Thanks so much man, you're a legend!
btw, I've really admired your work with smbx through the years, you were why I got into smbx so this is kind of an honour for me!

Another thing: make sure player selection (and maybe 2-player as well) is disabled to prevent confusion and make the launcher look cleaner.

How Can I disable 2 player mode?

create a folder inside your episode named "launcher" and a file inside that's called "info.json" (without the quotation marks)
inside "info.json", put: you can go to "data/_templates/launcherDemo" inside your smbx2 folder to see how other launcher settings work as well

Thank you so much deice! Cheers everyone, its honestly really cool to know that peeps still come to these forums to help others out.
