I just recently began using Toad's Tool 64 further than what I can understand and I need some assistance. I first used Toad's Tool 64 when I first saw VL-Tone's video on Youtube. I fiddled around with it but then stopped for a year or 2. But now I got into it again! Anyways I'm making a level on the flatworld but I am having some troubles... (BTW, I can't find the search button on these forums lol.)

1. I have no idea on how to make it where when you play the rom you start on the flatworld, not on the castle grounds. I don't want to run all the way into the painting just to test my level, most importantly for you guys having to do that.

2. I'm using a lot of pushable metal boxes, but the problem is, they need to be static (Not able to be moved.) I used these boxes because they are big and easy to use. Anyone know how I can change their behavior to static?

3. Some objects appear in Toad's Tool 64 but when I start up the rom they don't show up at all. I checked the acts for every object so they should be there in game. I had to try all different kinds of things and start up Toad's Tool 64 again to get the boxes to appear in the rom. Here are some pictures:

4. When I start the level I spawn facing the wrong direction. Is there a way to make Mario spawn facing the opposite direction. I already tried turning the spawn in Toad's Tool 64 180 degrees, but nothing happened.

5. How do you create a patch for your mod? Specifically one that PPF-o-matic uses to patch them.

6. Can I change the act name with Toad's Tool 64 or Text Wrangler? I remember I used to do it before but now I forgot, care to enlighten me?


I read most of the FAQs and stickies and hopefully I did a good job on this thread. I am currently on Windows 7 using Toad's Tool 64 version 0.5994. With your guys' help I can make a fun level that not only I, but you guys will enjoy!
(:
If I have more questions I'll post them in this topic.

On the off-chance that it doesn't get moved, I'll try an answer a few of them.

1) I'd assume that you can't, unless you actually replace the Castle Grounds with an imported FlatWorld, which I wouldn't do, just in case.

2) Yes, you can. Click on the Pushable Metal Box object and then look at the bars below the screen. One of them is a blue one that says "Behav". Next to that is a number. Next to that is an icon of a list. Next to that, it says "Pushable". Click the list icon and change the behaviour to something that suits you.

3) I don't know why that happens. Maybe you didn't save?

4) Try rotating in another direction. Maybe you weren't rotating the right way.

5) Google, or look around in the help forum. I believe it is in there somewhere.

6) Yes, you can. Open the ROM in Text Wrangler and from there it should be obvious. Just remember to save changes.

Note these answers, then don't ask questions in their own thread again and post in the TT64 help thread instead.
