WohlSoft Forums

Hello!
How I sayd here http://www.supermariobrosx.org/forums/viewtopic.php?p=100146#p100146, we have the better graphical base for our "PGE Default" pack instead of original SMBX's pack.

This graphics pack available in this configuration package:
Main storage: http://wohlsoft.ru/docs/_configs/SMBX_Redrawn/
and faster mirror: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B3QNPpAJx9HnMnNPbWxoUUp6T00&usp=sharing (no longer exist)

And the preserved original archive: http://wohlsoft.ru/docs/Collected/SMWXR%20GFX%20Pack.zip

What I mean:
This graphical pack contains a lot of unique graphics for blocks, for BGO's, backgrounds, NPC's and hardcoded graphics in the "graphics/common" folder.
When we will mix our drawings of new characters, power-ups, NPC's to replace SMBX's, (and even with using exists talkhaus's NPCs), we can release "PGE Default" pack which will have complete free content without using of copyrighted Nintendo's content.

Cool, I hope that graphics will help us to avoid the copyright :D

We've also now got this to look forward to:

So, this means if PGE becomes a huge fan gaming success, we can get endorsement/sponsorship from Nintendo? Wow.
And this also means Redigit can continue SMBX? I can't imagine something better than that.
Imagine All The...SMBX!

It's a good thing, but before Nintendo was attacked to them, Redigit was tired from SMBX project and was swithed all forces to the Terraria:
- SMBX - is a freeware game, just for training of development skills
- Terraria - Commercial game which is on sale for money, which gave him start-up of his big business.

P.S.

If I understood correctly, we can hold SMBX config pack(s) on our server without any copyright threats, but just in case, we have to check legal purity.

PGE is more than a platform for fan-made games, developers of fan-games usually uses Game-Maker for their projects. But a few fan-made games uses own game engines. SMBX - one of games which uses own game engine which written from scratch. PGE also giving freedom for developing of indie-games which aren't a fan-made games, which a created from scratch. A not many projects used SMBX engine for non-Mario games, just a Talkhaus's project, alone which I know. SMBX engine is too limited even if we will use LunaDLL to get all power of memory addressing to call hidden API of them. Because I began works with PGE. And don't forget, PGE is a free project with open source, which is not means free beer !

I would like to make more new graphics myself.. but i have been in a slump... not feeling creative at all for months now...
I think it might be a lack of dopamine in my brain..... it makes it difficult to function and be creative... trying to do something about it.

Don't worry, your graphics is important
How you seen here /viewtopic.php?p=2552#p2552, your graphics is useful , I was applied some tiles just for quick test
How I says, this is BASIS, means, we anyway draw own graphics which we wish to replace NPC's, playable characters etc. We can leave lots of items unchanged because this basis already have beautiful and unique graphics which we can use together
