Download SMW 1.8 Private Beta 1

[JJames19119]

Looks like Two finally got together a beta release for beta testers to gobble up. There's so much massive stuff changed in this build, it'll take a lot of testing to iron out all the glaring stuff that needs to be. If you haven't already gotten the beta build, you can download it here:

Please leave bugs and requests in the proper topics in the forum. If you have an issue or idea that needs to be discussed thoroughly, don't be afraid to start a new topic to discuss it with the other beta testers and staff members.

Ok, here is the fixed up beta 1.  Please take a quick look over the weekend and if I don't get any "no go" comments, I'll release this build to the community next week.  Have fun!

There are tons of bug fixes and features in this final beta 1.  It's late and I'm going to bed, but I'll try to list the improvements soon.  But the two types of death tiles (spike and lava differences), platforms on 5 different draw layers, and tournament control options all made it in.

Ok, I fixed most of the stuff you guys posted up to this point.  You know, eventually, we have to release this thing

• Global Music Overrides (actually in the last beta, but I forgot to mention it)
• World Music Overrides (in last beta)
• Eyecandy on 3 different layers
• Fixed the on/off switch bug
• World names are displayed correctly without the author
• New propeller animation tiles
• Animated tiles now have thier own tile types (please take a close look at this because it doesn't have a whole lot of testing)
• Fixed platform layer 1 goes behind layer 0 tiles in the editor, but in front of them in game
• Fixed default tiletype of the super mario world lava tiles
• Fixed bug where key woudln't open a door on the world
• Fixed bug where the world would display a little black bar when updating the screen on large maps
• Fixed screenshot bug for preview and thumbnail sized maps for pirhana and flame hazards
• If you do a statue stomp, and you press the jump button just as you land, you will jump. - fixed
• If you become a statue while flying with a p-wing, the flying sound will continue to play. Actually, you can fly with the P Wing as a statue, too... it's kinda funny to see, honestly. - fixed
• When you do a statue stomp with a cape or leaf, and press jump before you land, you will continue to fall slowly with the leaf, or will do an extra jump with the cape. - fixed
• The Weapon Use Limit for the Feather and Leaf are apparently messed up a bit. When you use a stored Feather or Leaf, it disappears on the first use, and you can't spin with it either. - fixed
• Also, running out the limit on the Tanooki powerup doesn't make the powerdown sound. - fixed

You should make this beta public, because if this continues, the public beta will be completely bug free, and there would be no point to that....

[JJames19119]

It would probably be best for a day or two of private testing so we don't give the masses a build that might potentially crash every time you do a certain thing.

While yes, it would be more effective if the public was helping us weed out bugs, we need to make sure they're ABLE to first :D

Ok, I'll give you guys 2 days of soak time and I'll release tomorrow night if nothing major is found.

Is the public beta the same as the one here, or were there any bugs fixed?

[Two52]

There are quite a few bug fixes so use the public one please.
