Is there anyway to place where a background detail is (like the grandfather clock on the Super Mario 3 ghost house theme) or is completely random based on how long a run of ground tile is made?

Random but you can copy them when they spawn. So if you get a clock on one tile, you can move/copy that exact tile to put clocks wherever. Same with any random decoration that appears.

It seems to be random but if you move a ground block with a detail on it the detail will move too

It's random but you can copy the tile with the feature you want. So make some ground and copy each feature over to an unused corner for later use.

Grim Grinder Gallery 1PH-5NH-LVG warning: ended up much crueler than originally envisioned. An exciting cart ride, rising lava puzzle work, a mean boss that had me laughing really hard and excited to try to make dry shell levels that are less cruel. I guess my next few should be gentle vanilla Mario flavor. I didn't plan to launch a Super Expert candidate on my second try. Just had the idea to try and make something that plays out differently based on choice of cart after I realized the blue skull raft is too fast but the blue flimsy lift is too slow but they're the only options for player-activated? Gives me some ideas for having a choice of ride(claw, spring, etc) and activating one based on use of On/Off switch and rail switching.

Good Sphere posted:Play my new SMB1 level “Downlands” This stage desperately needed a checkpoint. The shoes hopping is really funky on stair steps and throwing a dozen of them in on steps was kind of annoying, too. Layout was excellent, though.

I had a go at a boss battle: TPK-7PJ-LVG It's a bit on the tricky side, but if I can beat it in one life it can't be that bad. And of course, if you're really having trouble on the final form you can always just grind him down with shells

Overall my feedback for a lot of levels with cool themes and clever design is that they have a couple points that are unnecessarily hard with tricky one-block jumps or gotcha enemies. Trust in your designs folks you don't need to throw in those extra bits of difficulty, it isn't usually thematically consistent so it doesn't add to what your level feels like, it's just some jarring frustration.

Prate posted:Here's my first level, Koopas and Pipes Oh My, Y5D FFK 32H . Levels at the bottom of pages need the most attention! Nice short level but that last jump is brutal. I kept looking for a way around it. Maybe give the player some indication that they're supposed to go for it. Also, lots of turtles out of the pipes; slowing them down would have been nice.

Look I just wanna create a level where you have to race a naked koopa to his shell to make one big jump before the exit.

karma_coma posted:I'd love to know your thoughts regarding Abyss Castle, PW9-W07-TPG I'm not the person you replied to, but I gave the level a try. I like the second section with the platforming, but the falling portion seemed a little too random. There wasn't enough time to see the enemies to decide what to do about them, so I mostly just stayed in the middle and hoped for the best. The idea of descending a cave into an underground lair is really cool, though. I think the descending portion should be a bit slower paced and with more platforming (like descending through a winding cave) instead of just falling, so it will be cool to see what you come up with next.

Uploaded a few more levels to the sheet, including the start of my SMV Sequel Project. All of the standard levels to play like traditional Mario, complete with 8 themed Worlds. Each stage will have a 10, 30, and 50 coin to find. Expect those in bonus rooms and challenging locations. I'm trying to make these levels a bit easier too, and sticking to a few core concepts per stage. Up first, we have the Woodland World. SMV 1-1: Cheep Cheep Creek HQ2-VT2-TQF This one focuses on a few different enemy mechanics that differ depending on the water level. SMV 1-2: Creeper Cavern HSM-825-GNF I forced myself to make an 2D World level to learn the new tileset, so I went simple here. Creepers are the start of the show. Lastly, while not part of the SMV project... Ruinous Ruin TT5-Q6W-VNF While experimenting with SMB slope controls, I decided to make this little level. Definitely a short and sweet. Feedback welcome, and I hope you enjoy! Also, I've been playing/liking scattered levels on the list. Overall I recommend y'all put some more power ups in your stages. Lots of fun concepts, but they seem over-tuned and leave little room for error. I did really enjoy this one though: The Kins posted:
Great theming on the level. Be careful with Thwomps on vertical levels - they can be a really unpleasant surprise.

Saw 1000: Luigis Revenge P12-B4S-9NG Luigi has kidnapped Mario and has subjected him to a horrifying escape room of death! My first attempt at a narrative Kaizo stage. I made it as hard as I possibly could while keeping with good themeing and narrative. Please no spoilers if you post about it so others can keep the challenge.

I don't know if this is on purpose, but you can dodge the megashroom at the start which kinda makes the rest of the stage trivial, it's a pretty neat troll if intended route is to dodge it. I like the themeing in the level though, looking forward to your SMV project if they have the same attention to detail.

Did SMM1 ever get consistent notation for "fire a fireball here" for fast paced levels? Like how creators would put in a track of a specific shape to indicate a twirl or a big Z to indicate a spin jump

Tender Bender posted:Is there a way to look up Makers specifically? I can only seem to search courses. There are a few creators I loved from the first MM that I'd like to try to find here. Bumping this because I did a little research and I don't think you can actually view your friends list in game? I knew they're going to "patch in" multiplayer with friends but I thought that was referring to playing courses with them.

There's a Maker ID in your profile if you hit "More info" that's similar to the Course IDs, I think that might the only way to find a specific person

When you search by ID in course world, the text that pops up is "Please input the Course ID or Maker ID you want to search for."

Hansolio posted:If you don't mind giving some feedback, I made this trash: "full speed is sometimes bad" is extremely not my cup of tea but then all the jumps were doable at top speed so it all worked out. A few things: I personally think running is fun, and a good level shouldn't punish the player for having fun. The spring and fish were kind of trash (even though they didn't catch me) You don't actually ever need to jump on a spiny the entire level. You can get over the spike hills just with big jumps, and you can get a shellmet from the cannon and damage boost over the munchers instead of spinning on the shell The cannon is off the top of the screen unless you specifically jump to scroll the screen up. I'd lower it by one block so that it's on-screen (and will fire) just by standing on the floor beneath it. Still gave it a like to get it into endless.

Working on a level and I'm racking my brain here. What can hurt Yoshi from the bottom that doesn't move? I know a fire bar or burner can do it but I need a constant source of damage from the bottom, like a spike or mucher would do to Mario.

I've created a complex structure of interwoven paths, I'm down to making the last challenge for the player, and I run headlong into the engine breaking on me. So what I'm doing is locking stars behind thwomps, they're the only solid structure that blocks the stars and is vulnerable to invincibility. So far so good. The problem is that the game despawns thwomps when you're two screens away, but not the stars. So when you enter an area, the star is trapped. When you double back through it like I've designed my stage for, the star can be anywhere. I guess I'm rebuilding this around the thwomps covering question blocks that contain the stars, but that reduces the urgency...
