| Alright, my hack is featuring levels that each have their own graphics. However, I'm running out of ExGFX files to insert into it. Can ExGFX files past FF be inserted into the game or what? i.e. Super ExGFX. I just don't want to mess up the hack I'm working on. Thanks. | |||

| This also concerned me. I wanted most of my levels to be different ( and not just vary from world to world, but occasionally level to level ) but I wasn't sure if there was some kind of limit, and what that limit may be. | |||

| The theoretical max amount of ExGFX files is 3968 (80-FFF). Note that files above FF can't be used at the overworld. | |||

| Oh sweet! So I can use the xxx files. I was getting worried because I was getting close to approaching ExGFXFF.bin haha. But what about the Map 16 pages? Is there a way to extend that? | |||

Nope. 
Try to squeeze the last blocks into page 0x2. (It's tileset specific, except for the act like setting, in case you didn't know) |

Originally posted by Smallhacker Or better yet, cramp everything in, but keep it semi-organized. Don't use the ExGFX workshop's Map16Page files, unless it's something big that you'll be using that has a point to being that big (IE: my SMB3: 1-5 background). Otherwise, you should stick with doing the grunt work yourself. That way, things won't be as haphazardly organized towards the end, if you ever reach the point where you're using that much Map16.  |

Good that you sorted out that problem though. I didnt know there was that much room for exgfx. (edited by richyawyingtmv on 01-20-06 06:52 PM) |

| Nah. I'm making all my backgrounds. Well, some of them are rips, but whatever. I'm gonna give you something you haven't seen b4. MWA HA HA HA! | |||

| Thats good thinking, just try not to shoot too high. I know I tend to do that, I go over levels multiple times to the point where it takes me 2-3 days to finish just one level, and even then I'm never satisfied. Though that might be because all of "elite" SMW ROMs I've played. =X
Anyway, this is good news for me too. Custom backgrounds don't bother me much, but the tiles....... =D |

| I wonder why you can't have more Map16 pages? I imagine it's a limitation of some variable only using 4 bits for the page number, but that should be editable. I mean the game only uses 2 bits for the time limit (0, 200, 300 or 400) in the level header, but we can use any time limit we want via Fu's creative meta-objects. (For time limit override, ExGFX etc, LM places invisible objects into the level at specific coordinates and sizes. The level loading code is hacked to copy these objects' coordinate and size info to various memory areas, such as the time limit, to override their value, then delete the object. Clever ain't it?) |
