Hacking Reggie! - NSMBWii Level Editor

So this doesn't work with usb loading? Bummer.

 

[girugamarc]

eh, ignore this

There's nothing in Reggie stopping you from using a USB loader, but modified levels using USB loaders are glitchy at best, and usually don't work (through no fault of ours). Using Tanooki or Leiji Loader will probably work, but I can't guarantee it.

Alright thanks, I will just stick to the original method, it isn't that much of a pain.

Did somebody who tries to get it to work an usb loader check the size of the original and the replaced file? My theory is that the new file is bigger, but the fst.bin is not correctly updated.

I would extract the files, patch/replace them, and then rebuild the partition using partition builder 1.1(1.0 is broken).

If you tell everyone 1.0 is broken, I’ll lose all my lulz WiiPower.

Hm you're right about the file size!

I'm having no luck trying leiji, so I'll try partition builder, never worked with this program so I'll have to find that out firstXD

Anyways, thanks again for this wonderfull level editing app! it's really easy to use

What should you replace the Key and Keyhole with, if you are trying to make an remake of Super Mario World?

 

[Yoshi Party]

well you could be forced to find a mini mushrom to enter a special hole with another finishing line?

I hope there is a way to implement this in usb loader. maybe oggzee will fix it, i don't want to have to burn a disc for each custom i make!

thanks treeki i hope to be able to use this.

I dont know what the problem is, i created 1 and a half level so far, and they run perfectly fine with USB Loader. Gonna create a level now with more "unusual" stuff in it and try it again.

nice, which usb loader are you using? and how do you import the levels?

Btw, just tried partitionbuilder and that did the trick playing an edited level now

thanks a lot!!

 

[toxibunny]

I'm looking forward to see who is going to be the first person to make their own tileset edits, or even completly new tilesets using Wart, then make BRAND SPANKIN NEW levels with them using Reggie!

Exciting times.

 

[Artix3]

Wooo! It's out! Thanks so much Treeki!

I'm glad the wait wasn't for nothing.

Also, what level are you supposed to replace TrainingLevel.arc with to use it ingame? I want to see the sprites ingame.


Good help page. You should probably add how to test your levels somewhere on it though.

Cool! works great! (still trying to get used to it because of using NSMBe for so long...)

And now, a comment from the peanut gallery:

Would you mind, in the next release, adding NSMBe's resize/copy method also (shift + drag on object to resize, and ctrl + drag on object to duplicate)?

I was hoping for that in Reggie!, but I guess you had better things in mind

Also, a few other (small?) suggestions:
drag object/sprite from palette to level field to add object
perhaps a sidebar for sprite properties instead of a popup
customizable sprite images (unless I missed the config file while searching

)

so what do we have to do with partition builder? i know how to get most of the files it needs i just dont know what to put in the source file directory

 

[girugamarc]

You don't need partition builder

Just replace files with wiiscrubber. And convert the iso to .wbfs (if you're using a fat32 usb drive). It works flawlessly with CFG USB Loader. Just made a little test level and I had no problems. At first it kept freezing because I forgot to add zone boundaries to the level I was trying to play on.


Requirements for level to work:
Starting point
Ending point (flagpole, boss, etc)
Zone boundary (without this it will freeze right before the stage loads up)
