It would help if you, you know, provided a download for the editor.

Thank you Insectduel for your comment.

blackhole,

My apologies, here is a link:

http://www.geocities.com/beneficii/smb3mapb.zip

With my GAMMA release I plan on making it so that one could modify the locations of the various things that the editor uses. Of course, it won't change the actual location in the game, but this is so that if someone does extensive ASM hacking and moves a lot of stuff around, or just wants some greater flexibility, they can have it. It's a weakness in the editor that I plan to finally fix.

As a new question, 13. Should the files for the locations of things and other parameters be INI files or BIN files?
