I think he meant where the game takes the particle ID/sound ID numbers from.

Also, I've noticed a bug where it just refuses to spawn an actor (but still does the particle effect and SFX) even though I've definitely set up everything right (sprite set, sprite in range, flag activated etc)

If you remind me tommorow, I'll upload an example level. Unless you somehow manage to recreate my situation/stupid mistake.

Did you put a sprite you're trying to spawn into the level elsewhere?

Yeah. And somehow it is working today... but wasn't yesterday. Must be some kind of ROM saving and/or loading error in NSMBe/Desmume or an oversight by me.


Also, @Mariomaster

Here are some reasons why an event activation feature is a good idea:
* Lets you make event activating ? Blocks, which would
** Let you make ? Blocks that "spawn" (activate) event-activated sprites
* Lets you spawn multiple actors/particles/SFX per ? Block

And why despawning actors would be useful:
* make a "temporarily spawned actor"
* similar reasons to the reasons the tile destroyer function of the tile god is useful

You can already do looping events with the existing event sprites.

Yeah, an actor on-screen limit would be useful. Maybe even something that activates events on enemy defeat like the IF sprite, but for actor-spawner spawned actors (the IF sprite only seems to work with sprites)

Hello Asproek, I tried "that" solution you give to me. There is a way to despawn sprite. using a switch. But I don't know if is what are you trying to say. Testing MarioMaster Actor/Sprite Spawner Youtube: 30 seconds Download example.nml It works! EDIT: Asproek, should we show to community the link of "who" help us to setup the MarioMaster solution? [] -P

Can someone help me. I can't get this to work. I copied the example he provided I applied the asm hacks but it hangs on loading the level

Despawn Actor Example This test have aims to despawn for a while the Spawner Sprite, and give to player a time to pass an obstacle. Testing a Despawn of an Actor Spawner Sprite [20] Youtube: 30 seconds It works. Download despawn1018.nml [] -P P.S.: Thanks Asproek for the tip.

@Mariomaster
What is hopefully a small request: could you make a build of the "actor spawner version of NSMBe" that uses hex instead of decimal for the SFX/particle/actor IDs? It is a pain having to convert the numbers to decimal every time.

I have no clue what I'm doing wrong, I followed Luluca's tutorial on every step (even re-installed dev-kitPro), but every single time I try to play the level I made, the game hangs after the 1-1 screen. I applied the ASM hacks, so I don't know what I did wrong, plz help anyone

Please post the level.

I have no clue what I did differently but I got it to work : ] (on 1-1)

Now that it works, I can finally test on MvL, wish me luck
