Native Z-Index with LVLX file format http://wohlsoft.ru/docs/_files_for_posts/LVLX_BGO_ZMagic.png Instead of using sorting priority, you can use native Z-Index which is already supported by PGE. You have a possible switch displaying mode between 4 layers mode and you can correct the position by vari...

I think you should add ability to edit game's graphics directly in editor, without external tools. Map editing code could be reused as editing bitmap is kinda like editing 2D map, only you put color squares (pixels) instead of tiles. Hi, this is already planned ;-) http://wohlsoft.ru/forum/viewtopi...

I think you should draw inspiration from RPG Maker. Although, as it name suggests, it is made mostly for RPGs, it has one of best tile-based map/level editors I've encountered. Do you mean combo-placing? I.e. making a combination of items which you place into the map, this will be useful for world ...

Is the engine planned already?

I should to fix some issues in the editor before start engine part. Yes, Engine is planned

Ты не забыл установить конфигурационный пакет?
Я думаю, что забыл. Возьми один из них тут (ссылка ниже)

Did you install configuration pack?
I think, you forgot install configuration pack, get them here:

I have an idea for BGOs, NPCs and possibly even player characters: could we implement a way to change the Z-Offset/Sorting value (I.E. The foreground/background ordering property of BGOs) during an event, etc? For example, you have an NPC who gets scared, so the NPC runs away and jumps BEHIND a BGO...

Yeah, something like that. Graphics with grayscale hue, and you're able to change any of the gray shade to any color you want. It will save time spent on replacing every graphic just to make recolored tileset, and, as I said, it can be linked with that internal editor. For example, there would be a...

Huh...So we should make Black and White graphics and PGE should be capable of replacing BW by other colors? Nice idea. I wanna add pallete system as useful feature for recoloring. Hedgewars using this feature in hats: you have a hat sprite of hat with gray scaled fragments, and this hat will have s...

Yes, with global switches and expressions we will can able do these nonlinear episodes: - character will collect items or weapons - some doors can be opened by switch in the other level - without some items and skills, character will haven't possibles to pass some danger places. etc. Also with lua w...

Yes!

Post from hedgewars site:

It generating the MP4, OGV, AVI, all these formats are supporting by Youtube

What would be really cool but maybe won't happen would be a in-build recorder tool that let's you record stuff in platgenwohl without using an actual recorder like people normally use for recording smbx stuff. But yeah an in-build Platgenwohl recorder would be really cool. Hedgewars game have built...

Squishy Rex, is you mean internal graphic editor? Good idea, and with PNG format this will be easier
Oh, saving into GIF is possible with libgif which was integrated in the LazyFixTool and in the PNG2GIFs tools, and I can generate masked GIFs instantly

My suggestion for the configs Each config has its own NPCs, Blocks, BGOs, Playables, physics, etc. The config should be able to alter the gameplay. The key point for SMBX's strict customization is unchangeable gameplay. Config should be able to change the physics, change how powerups work and even ...

Ah, I think I just solved the problem, for some reason the NPCs and Effects were missing from the config file. Rather odd, but I'll add them from SMBX's data files and that may have fixed the problem. You can edit the main.ini and your "data/graphics" will be SMBX-styled: this is a SORTED...

The directory exists, and is correct because it runs SMBX 1.3, however I can't make a new level, world map, NPC editor or even open any existing stuff. That message appears when I try to do so. Have I not done something correctly? Check the [ Tools -> Configuration manager -> Config status] and loo...
