I'll use this topic to show the progress I have with the engine.

could you post the link? you might get better results and more people would probably post unless it's a super-secret project of yours, then I don't blame you for not posting the link yet

By the way, I could use a link to a good balance lift too. Using Mikeystar's is impractical for most engines because of its reliance on parents (not to mention its awkward design, like one sprite using 80 subimages).

Yeah, mine seriously sucked. I don't even know how I'm going to fix that balance platform.

Added download link - The only object that needs fixing is "obj_string_ext". - That object must collide with this object "obj_parplatform" smbmaster99@: This is an open-source SMB engine for GM8 Pro and Lite

I'm fixing the glitch with the help of this code! End Step Event for obj_string_ext: [code]if type = 0 //Left String image_yscale = obj_balanceplatform.y-y else image_yscale = obj_balanceplatform_b.y-y[/code] I fix'd the glitch! YAHOO!

I fixed a little bit the solution that mikeystar posted and now works like a charm, Thank you all. Now I can continue with the engine.

I can help you with the warp pipes?

[quote="DarkBlueYoshi"]I can help you with the warp pipes?[/quote] I'm going to write from scratch a way to make warp pipes

Also, you may need help coding Bowser. You haven't mentioned Bowser in your engine, but I saw the sprites. Make sure he is able to throw hammers, and make sure you add the Mushroom Retainers.

Nice! I can finally continue my SMB Engine! But I still need to fix that Climbing Glitch, ughhh...

If your going to use Hello's scr_mariostep, then you should modify it heavily. This is a suggestion.

The Climbing Glitch is in the Mario and Luigi sprites and in the Climbing Step Event, so there is no use for Hello's coding (I think it is very glitchy and messed up).

I just added the title screen, This object has two menus. If the game finds out you saved the game before. Then the menu is this one.

[img]http://i55.tinypic.com/2natufk.png[/img] If you choose 1 player game, you will play as mario. else if you choose 2 player game, you will play with both of the bros. Example: If mario dies, Mario will be changed by luigi and viceversa.

You should make Mario control itself in the title screen.

[quote="DarkBlueYoshi"]You should make Mario control itself in the title screen.[/quote] So you're saying there should be a CPU Mario jumping on goombas and killing himself. Good idea, but to me, it would be too hard to implement.

The solution, make a recorder that records the keyboard like in Lunar Magic. I'll make one and see if it works.
