EDIT: Hmm, never mind, got it imported...and now it seems the palette is screwed up.
...
what do ??

Posted by WhatTheHack

Hello, I am back with another amateur question regarding the editor: is there by any chance a way to simultaneously delete all objects from a level at once, rather than one at a time? I ask because search as I did, I found no such option, but I want to clear all existing objects from the original level when importing custom made level terrain. I would appreciate some help on this, as I can't find a solution myself.

How do you disable the opening cutscene

"Why does the screen turn white when loading my custom level?"

There are several reasons there might be a white screen:
- Have you removed texture animations (go to 'Texture Animations'>'Remove All', then Save)?
- If so, do you get a warning when importing your level that the textures may be too big?
- Are all of your textures indexed PNG images (GIMP/Photoshop - Image>Mode>Indexed)? Sometimes they cause problems if they're not.
- If not, how many faces are in your model (should be fewer than ~5000)? The higher the number of polygons the fewer / detailed the textures you can have.
- If your polygon count is high, try making your collision map less detailed. You can do this when importing by setting 'Drop faces below' to a value greater than zero, eg. 0.001 or 0.0005. This will drop very small faces from your collision map that aren't necessary.

This means that it couldn't load the texture specified in your model. Make sure that all texture locations are correct and relative to the model's location,
eg. if the model is located in c:/model/model.dae and your texture is located in c:/model/textures/tex00.png then the texture location in your model should be textures/tex00.png

You're going to need to do that with assembly hacking.

King Bob-Omb spawns a star so somewhere the SpawnActor method 0x02010E2C will get called with actor ID (r0) set to 178 (0xB2, actor ID of object 61). I would place a breakpoint in this method just after defeating King Bob-Omb and if r0 = 0xB2, go to value in r14 and once SpawnActor returns, trace the execution back up to King Bob-Omb's code. You could then disable the method call that causes the Star to appear and add in your own code to spawn an enemy of your choice. You'd then need to modify this enemy's "onDefeat" method to spawn a Star object with appropriate parameters or you could spawn another Boss-type enemy.

extern "C"
{
// Spawns an object with specified Actor ID,
// Object Bank settings must allows object in current level,
// Returns address of the new object
unsigned int SpawnActor(
short int actor_id,
unsigned short int parameter01,
int* xyz_positions,
short int* xyz_rotations);
}

How hard it would it be to implement mid-level music changes? I know it's already done in-game with the Piranha Plant...
