How to use custom Graphics:

If You are using regular Graphics:

1. Edit your graphics and Insert them with LM's green Mushroom Toolbar Button.
2. if you don't know already, find the tile numbers that the tiles use. If you hold your mouse over the tile, it will say in the editor's stattus bar what tile you have your mouse over.
3. Go back to the Map16 Editor, and in the 16x16 Attributes, set the Text boxes that have "Tile 1(Upper Left), Tile 2(Upper Right), Tile 3(Lower Left), Tile 4(Lower Right)" to the tiles you want.
I've circled the ones you need to change.


4. If you click OK, the Tile in the Bottom-Left hand corner will be how your tile will look.


5.If it's the wrong color, go back to the 16x16 attributes Window, and set the Pallate Box to a different number. If no color you want is there, you'll have to use a custom pallate.
6.Right Click on the Tile you aer going to insert it to, so if you originallly picked tile 20A, it should go back at tile 24A's position.
7.Press F9 on the keyboard to save your changes.

If you use ExGFX:
Same as before, except press the Yellow Mushroom on the status bar, and you'll have to set up the GFX Bypass before using the graphics.

NOTE: the Tiles' Graphics will not transfer from one tileset to another. For example, if you have a Ghost house open when you make the Graphics, you won't see it in a Forest Tileset later. you have to do it over for the forest.

One more thing:

I recently saw the post about the "5 levels" block. If I wanted to change it into a "96 levels" block, how could I do that? Could I change the "05" in the hex editor to "96" to make it work?

Excuse the bump, but I'm surprised nobody has asked this before:

why doesn't it work with a hdma rom that has been expanded to 2048kb?

I started a HDMA rom and transferred everthing over from SMB1, and once I imported the ExGFX, the ROM expanded from 1024 to 2048. Then I renamed it to smw.smc, removed the header etc, but the linker said that the filesizes don't match, and smw_hdma wasn't created.

Is there anything I can do about this?
Thanks.
