If you describe your problem better, I might be able to help.

Are they crashing the ROM, music not working, or what?

Views are quite simple.

You can create/move/resize views in the editor.
When you select one, you can change settings like music on the left panel
You can create more views on a level. Just remember to put the VIEW ID of the entrance to the id of the view you put it in...

That's it

my main issue is that I stretch a view upwards, as to make more level space, the camera doesn't follow. It stays from the base of the view to the maximum height it was originally set to.

Hex edit any level that does have the vertical camera free (for example w1-2)
Copy all its BLock 2
Hex edit your level
Paste all the block 2, in place of what you had before

W1-2: Camera keep mario in middel of picture.
W1-5: Camera follow mario.

I don't get what you are saying about those two but I'm sure 2-5 has the free-est camera I use it in all my levels

That happens when the water object is on the screen. It seems that it makes transparent the 3d textures.

Thats unintentional... but I belive it is due to the near water object.
But it does looks kind of cool when you got "enemy in pipe" or when mario uses the pipes.

It was strange at first when I saw them sometime ago

I thought the rom cottupted but came to see it was the water. But seeing them now, they look cool using them, thought it look strange when you put them near the castle, since it shows mario get stuck in the transparent castle wall

Wow! I didn't notice that the water made pipes transparent! I just thought it made the pipes darker, becaus no$gba doesnt emulate 3d transparency properly...

For the block 2 thing... It is more or less known what it does: it specifies camera settings. Take a look at the archived thread (it's old, but has really nice info) for example Here...

I sometimes think about making it ediable in the editor...

Why not use the same method Reggie uses?

Each view has its own settings for block 2 (and the others which are view-specific - I don't remember which). When you load the level, the view gets whatever settings it's using from those blocks.

When you save the level, the editor creates a separate entry in each block for each of those views. This means that you can use different settings for views without having to set up the separate blocks and entry IDs in the editor.
