i'm new here :P first post.

anyways, i made a level in mvsl and slapped it onto a flashcart. ran it, everything was fine. but when it came to mvsl it loaded the regular ice world but i have made my own level in place of ice world. i checked to see if it was a saving error, but it isn't because i used the editor to open back the same rom, and my edited level is there.

extra info: i use acekard 2i (those old ones with hw 4444, not sure if that matters :P probs not) and i use firmware.nds on my dsi, and run the actual game on my dsl. dsi isn't xl, and it's 1.3u. yep, it's a dinosaur.

any help would be appreciated. i'm a noob at nsmb editing because i've never got an actual good computer, and now that i finally have one, i started nsmb modding. thanks :P

okay, good. then try this: make a copy of your ROM, erase all sprites in your level and test if it works. then slowly add them back, a few at a time (just place them roughly like on the original copy of the level).

once the game crashes, that means it's probably some sprite that won't work in mvsl.

I don't remember how the restriction on sprites work for mvsl, but I suppose it's due to it trying to load files that exist within the ROM but not within the ARCHIVE package it uses for download play (probably also for two carts play).

uhh. an issue.

i was slowly adding back sprites, like you suggested. but each time, the level came up as the original. i took an unedited rom and put 4 brick blocks in ice world, loaded it up and they weren't there.

is it because i got a new r4 gold pro? i use firmware.nds, but i think now that i have two flashcarts i should try using both the same rom. i'll update later.

When you edit any level, remember in the main window of NSMBe5, when you open your rom, apply the NARC Map patch, and the NARC Text&BG patch. You need to do this any time you make a change in the level (or at least it won’t work if I don’t)

Edit:
I would HIGHLY recommend that you use 2 flash cards, it makes things so much easier, AND allows ASM hacks!

Also, no the flash cart is not at fault when the levels don’t work (Unless it can’t play roms )

I tried to replicate the image and it worked fine, probably some entrace or star id is wrong for you? It would be better to send the level itself (.nml) so that i can see what is wrong with it..

No, he’s saying that he can’t open the lvl because of the error

On 1-1 since these types of pipe blocks arent loaded, it will be shown in-game as a white square, and since there is no way to fix that, the only easy way around it is by removing these blocks


for 1-2 you should also remove these hangable square things
as they have no texture in-game too, and the pole doesnt load mario's animation and to fix that you will need the use of an asm hack (i can send it to you if you want)

for 1-3 the level is totally broken because you have changed its size and if you have level wrap enable it will be unplayable as it will glitch out, you can fix that easily by just disabling that option here
and that pipe here on the right side
should have the "Destination Entrace" set to 2, other than that the level is fine.

for 1-4 the only real issue here is these pipes
that cannot be upside down as it wont affect on how mario and luigi will spawn, and also these "hangable square things" that i mentioned earlier

And finally for the text+bg narc patch issue, thats probably happening due to some background you put in your level tho im not really sure..
