Tip: If you place too many sprites on the same screen, it will slow the game down. You can use the SA-1 Pack to reduce this slowdown, allowing more sprites on screen if required.
Thanks for that. It is apparent you know a lot about SMW hacking. I appreciate you taking your time out to answer my question even though it was misplaced. One more thing, though: how do you change sprite's behavior (e.g., making fireballs shoot straight instead of bouncing)?
ExGFX are GFX from different games like megaman, YI, castelvania zelda, paper mario, etc. The original smw gfx, they are just grasslands, cave and castle, etc. But if you are planning on making a vannila hack, (A hack that has nothing custom) you can do alot of cool things with pallete editing. Regular GFX are really boring (to some people) unless you change things like the palette.
kso...
ExGfx are graphics not included in SMW, e.g. custom enemies such as the Chain Chomps and Cutoffnessman in The Cookie Crisis. Anything else is GFX.
OK then.
How do you work with ExGfx? Do you make them or download and insert them?
Thanks-you for clearing all that up for me. The guy's accent in that second video is epic, by the way. But if I download a sprite from this site, how do I know which SPnumber to change?
Thanks. I'm having trouble using Overworld Sprite editor. I typed in the name of my rom, then list.txt, but I can't seem to figure out what to type in for "routine".
Not the link to the tutorial, the link in the tutorial, to download that program you need to open the .pl file. Anyway, I can't find in the tutorial the answer to my question. Please just tell me.
Got it. Thanks. To continue with this escaparade of questions, is there an invisible block with a vine in it? If so, where is it? If not, can I make one?
I figured out a new system for hiding my vine block, so that doesn't matter anymore. Thanks anyway. I'm designing a level for the contest, by the way. I started making a cave level because that's what I thought they meant by "vanilla level", but I stuck with it.
EDIT: I can't find the munchers in the sprite list. I checked Tileset-Specific too. Could you tell me where they are found?
EDIT: Never mind, I found it. It's an object.
EDIT AGAIN: How do you flip the munchers so they're upside down or sideways?
How do you change the Auto-scroll in a level? It's slow when I enter, and that works fine, but I can't change the speed after I enter. I put the sprite around the top of the screen, made it so Mario could touch the sprite, and yes, I'm sure the speed on the sprite was different. I can't figure it out. Also, I need it so you exit when you fall off the level. I can't seem to figure that out either.
I don't quite understand your first question, but as for falling off the levels, find the Side Exit Enabled sprite under Special Commands and Generators.
OK OK OK. You know how you can set the Auto-Scroll to, say, Slow? How do you change it to Medium or Fast in the Middle of the level? Also, I want that exit to lead to another level, not exit the stage.
