Alesan, you should add these custom enemy properties:

"killsEnemiesWhenSmall" - Kills enemies only when small (like a kicked Koopa shell)
"splitWhenSupersized" - Splits like a supersized Goomba when supersized
"breaksHardBlocksWhenSuperSized" - Breaks Hard Blocks only when supersized
"supersizedTransforms" - Supersized when transforming into an enemy while supersized (Example: Supersized Balloon Goomba lands on ground, transform into a supersized Goomba)

[Qwerbey]

Alesan, you should add these custom enemy properties:

"runThinkScript" - Runs a think function in an attached .lua file

i like this one ^^^^

[HugoBDesigner]

Seems rather inviting for potential code injections :/

[Qwerbey]

It would have to be sandboxed obviously, probably only having access to current world and all the objects in it.

An enemy pack that deletes all mappacks. i will put that at the top of the list

[radel999]

Also i have idea for a add option aspect ratio for mappack to choose whats you want to a screen size 16:9 or 8:7
Like here

For a 8:7 mappack ratio the black borders appears in the side

That's a hidden feature (nitpick). Visit the wiki for more information.

Where i can found nitpick.json? I search in source and mappacks but i can't find

[Ormalawayo]

on andriod either know I'm doing it right, it won't let me add music and sprites and thats the same with everything else file related! At first I thought I fixed it by moving Mari0 out of my SD Card but either know the folders are there, it's just not working, can you help? I'm trying to recreate SM3DW


Can someone give me a tutorial or at least give really specific steps?

[Evan.F]

You have to add it in the separate AE folder outside of mappacks

[Ormalawayo]

Is it called AE or Aleseans Entities? The only folders I see are Mappacks, OnlineMappacks, and Characters

[Ormalawayo]

No I think its in

[Ormalawayo]

Wait what?

[radel999]

Nitpicks were added in V13, they are extra settings not available in game and must be added in a json file named "nitpicks" in the alesans_entities folder. They are formatted the same way as enemies. Many are useful and one is more fun.
But problem if i can't found this file, do you can help with this?

[Evan.F]

that is the Alesans_Entities folder you are in, exit that to get to another folder that contains said Alesans_Entities folder and another Mappack folder

You have to make the file yourself.

Like here? Sorry for troubles

[alesan99]

put brackets { } around it
also you're not supposed to put it in a mappack. you're on the wrong folder

to disable it you will need to change settings.txt

[Ormalawayo]

How do you get for Android?

you press "download android (.apk)" and then i think you just tap on the apk file
i don't have android so i don't know
Edit: hey alesan99 could you make "clothes" a color option? from se
and se characters?
Edit2: how about when you collect a collectable when it loads next it spawns as a ghost collectible,
and gives you a set amount of coins
Edit3: and a 4:3 option

and here it is

Guys im on Android it says there's a folder called "mario_android", "love.to.mario" and more

[radel999]

I prefer to make a tutorial because im confused a little.

Because idk where make a nitpicks.json on my Mappack folder? I try writing the "fourByThree" = true in file but don't works.

[alesan99]

Read the instructions again.
I said its NOT supposed to go into your mappack folder. There's another folder called "alesans_entities", put it in that one. NOT the mappack folder
Put brackets around what you wrote inside the json

-NOT the mappack folder. Put it in the other folder called "alesans_entities"
-Put brackets ({} <- these things) around "fourByThree = true"

[radel999]

Okey.

[radel999]

Problem if game crashes, yeah i know if thats a big problem from me but i don't sit into the codes, thats why i ask for help, sorry for troubles.

How are you messing it up this badly? You were so close before

Please, don't complain about it not being able to turn off fourbythree if you manage to do it

Hooray! Its Works! Thank you :)

[Ormalawayo]

Nice it’s a update, I at least hope the file problem on Android is solved that was annoying and somebody told me how to do it on PC!

[Ormalawayo]

Ok lets start over...



It's says I'm doing something wrong

[TheSkullCreeper!]

Ok lets start over...



It's says I'm doing something wrong

Ok, are you putting them in your mappack folder or the folder of your mappack?

[alesan99]

Ok lets start over...

It's says I'm doing something wrong

Well first of all you need to put them inside of a mappack. It looks like your 'mappacks' folder is completely empty and you're putting the music into nothing.

Are you still on your SD card? Last I checked it only works with Internal Storage.

I know this is gonna take at least 10 more posts so try this: in mari0 create a new mappack and put some blocks on 1-1 and check if it actually saves. Then use the search function on your file manager to find "custom_mappack_1" OR "1-1.txt"

[Kant]

Alesan, you should add these custom enemy properties:

"killsEnemiesWhenSmall" - Kills enemies only when small (like a kicked Koopa shell)
"splitWhenSupersized" - Splits like a supersized Goomba when supersized
"breaksHardBlocksWhenSuperSized" - Breaks Hard Blocks only when supersized
"supersizedTransforms" - Supersized when transforming into an enemy while supersized (Example: Supersized Balloon Goomba lands on ground, transform into a supersized Goomba)

in "supersizedtransforms" can be only a passed parameter instead or a property imo

[Ormalawayo]

When I was editing this, I realised I was quoting myself, sorry for the people who saw that.

The left side of the screen only shows folders so arrows only appear if the folder has more folders in it but I'm now seeing how that will confuse you, but I don't see how you think I'm putting the music files in nothing because above them is where they are located

Are you still on your SD card? Last I checked it only works with Internal Storage.

What the... why is the image cropped? Well click it, it should bring you to the full image
also last posts 1 said I checked it was on my Device Storage, also if Internal Storage and Device Storage aren't the same, maybe try changing the code because strangely enough on websites and some apps I can Sen files from my SD Card, I'm probably judging the book by its cover but judging by what the buttons say it looks like your trying to program it to open a folder and detect if there's something in there or not, I don't think my andriod can do that so if possible, find a safe website (like this one) that wants some files or something like that and look inside the website code. If this is the case, try removing the code that should select the folder and maybe adjust it to what the websites do it, maybe request mobile site if you can?

create a new mappack and put some blocks on 1-1 and check if it actually saves. Then use the search function on your file manager to find "custom_mappack_1" OR "1-1.txt"

[Ormalawayo]

One more thing, if I ever make a website or a app it's probably gonna be a custom sprite maker for this because I'm starting to learn about it. Is that ok?

You're editing the SMB mappack, not editing a custom one.

Uh obviously I don't literally mean they're in nothing. They didn't look like they were in a mappack.

That's not at all how programming works, but I won't go into that.
There's nothing that explicitly makes SD card access impossible, I was suggesting you use internal storage because its what worked for me. On my phone it created a folder on my internal storage and an empty folder on my SD. but mari0's game engine can only access one or the other.
I can't install apps on my sd card on my phone so I have no idea how well it works, but I haven't heard anyone else have problems so it might work.

But here's the thing, your video showed you can save levels, so that's not the issue here. All you need to do is locate where stuff is really saved.

[black toad]

Hello!!

[Ormalawayo]

Uh obviously I don't literally mean they're in nothing. They didn't look like they were in a mappack.

Oh ok, I thought you ment those were in Device Storage,

Well, I already knew that. I was asking if Device Storage and Internal Storage was the same, I mean when I moved the game away from my SD Card the Folders appeared, but the game couldn't seem to read them

But here's the thing, your video showed you can save levels, so that's not the issue here. All you need to do is locate where stuff is really saved.

ok and that is... [Visible Confusion] where do they go?

[Ormalawayo]

You're editing the SMB mappack, not editing a custom one.

I thought he told me to edit 1-1
