Intro
==========================================================
Hello!

Me (Wohlstand) and Kevsoft are downloaded from Chinese server package of SMBX
1.4.1.
It is not official version, but we are will try to contact with
developer of that to get source code. It has a lot of new things (some of those
things are already implemented in the PGE Editor and in the PGE Engine),

but some old things are buggy or not working:

for example,
- Sizable blocks size is limited, so,
super-huge blocks which worked in SMBX 1.3 fine, will has reduced size in SMBX
1.4.1!
- to exit from level test in the editor, you must use [Pause] control key instead
of direct [Esc] key!
- New File formats are NOT compatible with classic SMBX and PGE currently upcoming
to support them

but Chinese SMBX can:

- open SMBX64-standard LVL/WLD Files (files from SMBX 1.3).
However it automatically converts them into own format. BE CAREFUL AND MAKE
BACKUPS!
- Supports PNG CGFX
- More music formats (because Wohlstand's SDL Mixer X audio library has been used)
- Direct X render has been used
- Super-fast loading of game/editor
etc.

More other things you are can retrive yourself.

Good luck ;-)

How to get it running
==========================================================
Tested on:
* Windows XP SP3 x86
* Windows 7 x64
* Windows 8.1

If you have troubles to run, found bugs or imperfections, please report it to

forums
(if that wasn't already reported) http://wohlsoft.ru/forum/viewforum.php?f=58

Also suggestes: Also try to delete config.dat file after applying of some changes

----------------------------------------------------
VirtualBox notes:
----------------------------------------------------
- you must install Guest add-ons and also "Direct 3D (experimental)" support
(to install that you must reboot Windows XP and turn it into safe mode
[F8 key before boot] and choice safe mode)
- You must enable 2D and 3D acceleration in virtual machine preferences ("System"
tab)

----------------------------------------------------
VMWare notes
----------------------------------------------------
- Not tested yet, but you must have support of 2d/3D acceleration
