Here they are!
Extra Tilesets
You'll have to go into the editor ini to use them. Change the tileset's name to the one you are using. For example, instead of
[Tileset]
url=pak::Bin\Config\Tilesets\Forest.ini
put
[Tileset]
url=pak::Bin\Config\Tilesets\NSMB.ini

That simple. I put forward slashes (/) instead of backslashes (\) in the readme. I meant backslashes. Please keep that in mind.

FYI your edit just sets the default tileset, theres a much easier way. Just create the tileset, open the map properties (it looks like a cog icon on the toolbar), and where it says tileset click browse and select it.

I found that out afterwards. Still, I'm making a stage based on the classic stages. It'll be great! And the NSMB tileset took me like an hour and a half to compile.

Wha, it won't work :(. The screen just flickers to black and then flickers back and nothing  :'(. No idea if I can get it to work, that's a shame, I was really looking forward to trying this out.

EDIT: Nevermind, I just changed from opengl to directx7 and made it windowed. Looks great, never played the original but this looks nicely done :P, great job with this infini.

It may be that your video card dosen't like the driver I'm using. Open The Lost Vikings (2008).ini and change graphics:driver to DirectX7.

So what! I wanna get out! 'Cos there's so much out there! So many different people, living different lives! Incredibly good guys, bad guys... Folks completely different from us! It's one huge melting pot! See, it's not about success, dying in the streets, who's better, who's not! I just want to be a part of it! I realized that even if I've no connections, no talent, even if I'm one big loser, I want to use my hands and feet to think and move, to shape my own life! We can just die here or we can try, see what we've got!

Perhaps you could actually provide the log file or explain what is wrong rather than posting useless, unhelpfull posts?

Also please don't create duplicate accounts to repeatedly vote u_u.

I guess I edited my reply too late :P, but I figured it out on my own, I kept changing opengl to directx7l for some reason I thought the l was a "]" then I realised my mistake and yeah :-[.

I didn't get very far but I was very impressed so, long intro and smooth gameplay, really had the SNES feel to it :).

"Didn't Work" Is terribly vague, exactly what didn't work? How did it crash? What did the log file say? etc etc

I clicked the executable, it instantly closed after switching to fullscreen. I saw a black screen for a total of a second.

Try doing what I told HyperKnight to do, change the graphics driver, it may not be support on your computer. I should probably have added a fallback method.

Open The Lost Vikings (2008).ini
Change Graphics:Driver to DirectX7
Change Graphics:Depth to 0

Trust me, it should work, I did that exactly actually, I made sure I didn't vote till after I got it running ;).

Excuse my ignorance Infini but what exactly does Opengl do compared to Directx? I gather it's similar yet different?

They are just different graphics API's, they do the same thing essentialyy, its just that different video cards support them differently.

Grimace is the demiurge, the creator. From him all things in McDonaldland have sprung. He is not a sin, he's not a menu item, he's just Grimace. He exists. He rolls his lidless eyes and flaps his lipless mouth, formless and terrible, a protean idiot thing from the depths of pre-history.

Press F3, what fps/ups are you getting? If you have a slow computer that dosen't get a good speed it can sometimes screw up the cinematics, sadly time constaintes didn't give me enough time to fix that glitch.

EDIT: After thinking, you may be able to fix this problem on your computer if it is caused by slowness. Open up the ini file and change system:fps from 60 to 30.

Getting programs to work on all computers is a !@#$% u_u, especially when you have no time to beta test anything.

I AN OLAF. I have like many others never played this game, but I must say I liked it. The controls were a bit hard at first but it got better. :) I'll give this a 9 for not having customizable controls. >:|
