P:M 2.5 custom stages

[** Ace **]

P:M 2.5 seems to have disabled custom stages. What is the reason for this?

IIRC. It was reported to be causing various freezes.

I asked the same thing a few days ago.

Not an oversight. I had several people that used the stage builder exploit to install homebrew that left it on that had freezes with the homebrew version. It doesn't add very much (considering almost all of the stages in PM are amazing) and caused freezes (provided, with some user error) so we didn't feel that it was worth including. If enough people show their support for it it might be included in the next release.

Hopefully it will be included if there is a small bug fix patch in the coming weeks.

Also with the new SSS, the custom stage select screen is a complete mess.

So? They cant just disable custom stages. It is a big feature removed because they ****ed up.
It was most likely removed due to improper management.

It's not like it's permanently removed lol.

Custom stages caused freezes if people left the stack smash stage on their SD card, and the new SSS screws up the custom stage select screen. We couldnt fix it in time so we disabled it for the time-being.

I'm sorry if it frustrates you, but it was done for a reason, and not on a whim.

Is it restored in 2.5b?

 

[Supreme Dirt]

easy solution guys, include in the homebrew thing a basic custom stage that replaces the stack smash stage (same filename).
ensure in the installation instructions that after installing homebrew through stack smash to install PM, and not before.

Unfortunately, no. Sorry.

Dude that's so meta. If there were a custom stages enabled, then you could potentially run P:M inside P:M, and so on.

The new SSS screen would be a problem, wouldn't it?
Hopefully you guys can fix that by the next release

People used custom stages?

 

[rockmanmegaman]

I want custom stage to be back, just feels like every stage is too similar (flat floor with a floating platform).

 

[Vilain]

I hope custom stages will be back for the next release !

 

[9bit]

I'd like to be able to use custom stages for testing things like heights and distances. Maybe include them as selectable in the homebrew version?

You're a ****ing goof.

http://kc-mm.com/2013/07/07/super-smash-bros-4-leaked/ wanna share this so if the back room sees this if they were to tweak it a bit and add it to the list of stages i think it would be pretty cool.
