Spotlight is the latest (and best) Editor for Super Mario 3D World on the Nintendo Wii U.
It has a boatload of features allowing you to make your very own levels, toad houses, mystery boxes, and more!

• OpenGL 3.0+
• Windows 8+

A full guide to Spotlight can be found on the Spotlight Wiki.

To compile Spotlight you will need to download it to a folder also containing the GL_EditorFramework
repository. The folder layout should look like this:


These folders must contain their respective project repositories. (make sure to get rid of the -master in the end when downloading both)
After that it should be ready to go.

If you need help with the program or editing the game, you can Join the Cat Chat (). You can talk to other SM3DW hackers here as well as show your own hacking accomplishments.
