You are, however, free to release additional tilesets with other graphics for this package if you do so, I ask that you Please do not release expanded versions of this tilekit. This package will only really be more helpful for more complex world maps that would need a lot of additional tiles for things like cliff/ground seams. I recommend keeping these tiles on a separate layer and hiding that layer when exporting the map image, then placing them in the SMBX map editor.įor simpler overworlds that only need the tiles that come pre-packaged with SMBX, I suggest simply building them entirely in the SMBX map editor. Stuff like the waterfall tiles and 'Path Planning' tileset are meant to help with planning the layout and distribution of these things in maps. This package is only meant to help with building the static terrain and does not include any animated tiles for elements like moving water, scenery, levels or paths. As of the moment I'm writing this readme file, this is currently the easiest way to implement pre-rendererd world maps in SMBX.įor more information on how to use Tiled, you can find tutorials on Youtube, such as Gamefromscratch's series ( ) Once you've built the map and exported the image (or just exported the sample map), you'll need to split it up into chunks and replace world map tile graphics with these chunks, which you will then have to place in the editor. tmx file complete with the preloaded tilesets, SMB3 terrain autotiles (see the 'Terrains' tab at the bottom of the 'Tilesets' panel), and a pre-built example map ready to be exported as an image. The Overworld Tilekit is a package of pre-made tilesets for the free Tiled map editor ( ) that I put together to help streamline the process of making pre-rendered overworld maps. SMB3-style cliffs, assorted edits and overall tileset arrangements by Rockythechao, credit is appreciated but not required as long as you do not claim these things as your own creations. I feel like I've learned a lot about level design from those maps.The original Super Mario All-Stars graphics are copyright Nintendo, all rights reserved, etc.Īdditional SMB3 ground tiles and border tiles by Sednaiur. I've also downloaded and played quite a lot of the episodes that were submitted to the mapstore by other people. I've made some levels and episodes of my own too, but I did not submit most of them since they weren't too good. These levels were made purely as a hobby, and I've not earned anything from making them.Įdit: You can right click the images and select 'view image' to see larger versions of them.ġ7:25:56 GMT -5 willhart said:I've been a big fan of Pekka Kana 2 for a long time, and I really liked it's graphics and the music. I'll post the map of my latest level once the episode we are making comes out, which is hopefully soon. The resolution of the sprites is twice larger, to make the PK2 graphics fit better with the Mario tiles.

This level is called 'Desert Town', and it contained some enemies and power-ups from the original game. I wanted to make something more original after the first level from earlier. It featured a small town full of skeletons and a nice Christmas themed song. I wanted to learn to use the tileset properly with this level, and see if it was even possible to convert it to SMBX. Large part of the layout was copied from the first level of Iv4n Island. This was the first level I made titled 'Welcome'.

I thought that the people here could be interested on seeing them. Here are some of the maps I've made previously.

I've managed to make 4 levels so far, one of which I cannot post yet, since it will be part of a custom episode. It's graphics are quite customizable, and I took it as a challenge to recreate parts of the game on it. Over the years I have managed to make some PK2 levels on Super Mario Bros X engine. I feel like I've learned a lot about level design from those maps. I've been a big fan of Pekka Kana 2 for a long time, and I really liked it's graphics and the music.
