Ask anything about SMW Hacking [V.2.0]

3 questions.

1. How do you create custom graphics for blocks?

2. How do you insert ExGFX?

3. How do I use those custom graphics on only one block per type of graphics

You can't insert MP3's with addmusic. For converting search in google.

Why the *bleep* do people just keep ignoring my questions!? Someone else posts with their own question, it's answered and mine is forgotten. I've asked 2 questions, one was responded to, but not even remotely answered. This one has been completely ignored!


Being ignored frustrates me.

Hey, does anyone know how to edit the video on the title screen using lunar magic?

Anyone else like metroid?

Project Armada:tutorial

answer #3 is not an answer, it doesn't say how to insert the custom graphics to the block.

Edit: oops, i meant to ask for #2 how I insert my custom graphics

Layer 2, my friend. Also, note that you can't have Layer 2 BG and FG, so it's your pick.

Map16, try the lunar magic help maybe

Believe me, i'd love to look at Lunar Magic's help file. But whenever I try, i get this:
No matter what I click on, Lunar Magic Help only dislays that. I don't understand why, but the help file is broken, and i can't use it.

that's why i'm asking questions, because Lunar Magic's help file DOESN'T WORK

scratch that, now i'm getting a message that says:

make sure Lunar Magic.chm is in same dir as lunar magic
if not, redownload lm

What you can do:
Retype the address.

No go with the search, because the help file is there, but it isn't working. It opens fine, but all the info is unreachable. the only thing that shows up is the window, the help part doesn't.

Also, i am getting a thing that says the address isn't valid once i click on something.

I redownloaded lunar magic, stuck the help file in the folder, and it works now.

try redownloading it, maybe?

LM help is not telling me how to put the graphics on the block

Edit: Problem solved!

I have edited the Bonus Game levels 0 & 100. I would like it to end by having the player collect a 1UP Mushroom. How can I do this?

Never mind, I figured out to use BTSD.

Yes, you can change it to a vertical level I think. You have to have 4 sprite A9s in the room (one for each reznor).

Having issues with an IPS patch which is my hack. It won't play on the emulator after i patch it to a clean rom, which i just downloaded before patching. LM says my ExGFX80 file is too large. But that's ridiculous, because it's 6 16x16 blocks. That's it. I've seen ExGFX files larger than that! They aren't too large! So why is this ExGFX file too large if bigger ones aren't? I don't get it!

What the heck does that mean? I'm sorry, but you lost me at 4kb. I'm guessing it has nothing to do with the number of blocks. So how do you determine the "kb" size then?
