I have a question about level tiles. I understand that yellow tiles are for normal levels and red tiles are for ones with secret exits. What do the large oval shapes dots mean for a level?

It's suppose to mean that's its a bigger/longer level than the other small ones.
Layout by LDA during C3.
Is it in any way possible to use ExGFX for used blocks? One of my levels uses SMB1 graphics, but once I hit one of the question mark blocks, they turn into SMW used blocks. I tried using ExAnimation on the used block tiles, but that only resulted in the graphics rapidly changing between the SMW and SMB1 ones.

I think it's possible if you're editing two ExGFX in YY-chr...

Editing two ExGFX? I don't understand how that would help... Could you explain what you mean a bit more?

I'm saying you can edit a normal GFX in YY and save as an ExGFX and make an ExAnimation ExGFX for Animated blocks, if you want.

I already tried that, but ExAnimating blocks that are already animated results in a wierd flashing between both of the animations...

How can you edit boss levels or make a boss using the koopa kids?

I have a Question as well
i puttogether my level and everything but for some reason the end of level tape won't appear
but there is no sprites near the goal and there is a tape put there
does anyone know why it won't work?


@Yoshicookiezeus: Yes you can. I also asked FPI about that. When you hit a question/turn/note block the bounce block you see is actually a sprite. So you have to open up GFX00 (or 01, I don't remember) and change the graphics of the question/turn block to the block you want. Insert it as an ExGFX and insert it in the SP1 slot. It should display the graphics you used in the ExGFX file when you hit it.

I already have the graphics I want for those sprites, which as far as I know are only used for the bouncing animation. It is how the block looks after the animation ends that I want to change.

Do you saw the Sprite memory of your hack?
I think you must make it 10.

By the way, I gaved up hacking SMW. I think I'll come back, but not yet. ~ X-King

There is a tool in SMWC that edits Iggy-Larry. Using the Koopa Kid sprite, I recommend you use only for Lemmy and Wendy.

Yo have to get an ExAnimation ExGFX. Open Lm and insert the ExGFX. Click on Poisonous red mushroom and select the ExGFX to extend Animated tile area. Then click on SMB3 Brick button, select the entry, the type (Normal, palette, etc.), the tiles arrange (8x8,16x16,24x8,etc.) and the tile of destination (on standard pages:0-3ff). Now use the frames with the tiles of your ExAnimation ExGFX. For a palette ExAnimation, use the SNES RGB Values.

Alright... I've noticed in some hacks, they have an absoluteley ridiculous amount of ExGFX.

But wouldn't pasting the MAP16 files neededs for all of that ExGFX cause some serious problems from the overlapping? Is there a way to stop the Overlap?

An Example of the ExGFX overload is Brutal Mario...

Sorry if no-one really gets the question.

It's possible to make 2 ExGFX Pages in one Map16Page of LM (In my case, I make some pages: 8-Switch Slopes and Doomship, A-don't remember and texts, and 12-SMB3 1-1 and 2-1 BG.)

Is not a block in blocktool that gives you more than 1 coin? like 5 or 10 coins? If it's posible, please put the name to can find it.
@ Dual Performance:
Well, there are some custom coins by MikeyK at the custom blocks-section.
You can easily edit the number of coins with a simple hex-edit (wich is stated in the readme)
Is there a place where I can download the multi-colored star GFX for my goal point shere, or do I have to rip it myself.
