Here's a tutorial made by SkyBlueYoshi for making blocks of any size.
- Spoiler
- First open up your SMBX, make a regular level and save it as .lvl file. Then choose the block you want to customize and open the debugger (in View--Debugger) and record its coordinate. After that, open up your .lvl file using Notepad (or other tools like Notepad++) and search (Ctrl+F is the common hotkey) its coordinate.
Using the New Blocks.lvl (download link available in this post: http://www.sendspace.com/file/8sjqj7), suppose we want to change the block at coordinate (X:-199616,Y:-200256), then after searching "-199616" or "-200256" we can navigate to the following code:
-199616
-200256
32
32
82
0
#FALSE#
#FALSE#
"Default"
""
""
""
Here is the meaning of these codes:
-199616----X coordinate
-200256----Y coordinate
32----Block's height
32----Block's width
82----Block ID
0----Contained item ID
#FALSE#----Invisibility
#FALSE#----Slippery
"Default"----Layer
""----Death
""----Hit
""----No More Objects in Layer
By changing the height and width, we can customize its size.
About blocks:
Changing
32
32
to
64
64
, the block will be rendered as 64*64 and its actual hitting boundary will become 64*64 as well.
Changing to
10
12
will do the same except for the size (obviously).
About slopes:
First the basic principle:
This is a 32*32 slope

This is a 64*32 slope

This is a 128*32 slope
http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/229/5/4/3_by_blueyoshis-d6ij9q1.png
From this we can know the slope is actually rendered by drawing the diagonal. So by changing the height and width of the slope we can create any slope of any size and any slope angle we want.
Using New Blocks.lvl as an example, after finding the following code:
-199520
-200512
32
32
299
0
#FALSE#
#FALSE#
"Default"
""
""
""
If we change
32
32
into
64
32
,the slope will turn from

to
http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/229/f/c/4_by_blueyoshis-d6ij9th.png
If changing
32
32
to
32
96
,the slope will turn from
http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/229/9/7/1_by_blueyoshis-d6ij8ia.png
to
http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/229/e/e/5_by_blueyoshis-d6ij9w1.png
Yes. It's THAT simple! Now you know how to create any size of blocks and slopes you want!
