OK, guys, there's a REALLY easy way to tell which setting a sprite needs (and OMG, it's even in the help file!). Let's say we want to use the brown platform on a chain, sprite 5F. Open the sprite header dialog, and scroll down to entry 01:
01: M:06-00=06 SP:5F,64 M1:08-06=02 M2:08-00=08
See the "SP:5F,64" there? That means this entry is intended to be used with sprites 5F and 64 (line-guided rope).
Seriously, it's that easy.  |

Just look at the sprite memory in a original level that have the sprite that cause glitch, but never forget that some sprite are incompatible together(like Big boo and the green bubble) |

Uh... no. There are a lot of settings that work for a lot of sprites, peter_ac, but 0B, IIRC, is the only one that works for big boo and there's a bunch of other sprites that require special settings. |

setting 0E seems to work for most sprites. |

I think there is an easier way for this. Instead of trying every setting, you could just open an unhacken SMW-rom, go to a level area which contains for example a big boo or the bubbles, Banzai Bill or whatever and take a look which setting is used in this area. So you can't be wrong. |

Yes, this has to do with the Change Properties in Sprite Header option.
The sprites you mentioned use up quite a bit of memory, so in order to use them without having parts of them, other sprites, or Mario himself disappear, you have to change the setting in the top menu.
Just mess around with the settings until you come up with the right one, but don't use too many of the sprites that take up quite a bit of memory together, or virtually no setting will help (I learned this the hard way in my hack while working on a fortress level). |

Every time a make a level and use certain sprites such as Big Boo, Wiggler, or
a large green gas bubble, sprites seem to disappear! Even Mario! Is there a way I
can fix this? |
