1) How do I get meat boy to change color with the level. He stays the same even when I change the color of the active tile layer.

2) How do I make tiles and objects in the background layers look faded?

3) How does lighting work?

1) Save and reload your level and you will see Meat Boy has changed his color.

2) Select the layer and hit F2 to go into the coloration properties. Set the RGB values to the same number and then adjust the amount from 0.00 to 1.00. For instance, set them all to 150 with an amount of 0.6 and you'll have a fairly light gray fade.

3) Read the tutorial. ;)

I have read the tutorial on lighting. Right now I place nodes then choose a color and nothing happens, so I don't know what step I'm missing.

On another note, when do you think your Viridian chapter will be done  .

Are you sure you have the light selected when you choose the color? Make sure to right-click the light you've placed.

And Vexing Vortex will be done soon! I'll probably have the 18th level done today, and I'll finish the last two tomorrow. :)

OK, lights weren't working because I was on low detail, fixed now .

One last question: How do I stop objects on an active layer from scrolling with the screen when I'm moving? E.g. bandage girl moves right when I do.

You are doing a Captain Viridian chapter? Cr.. i was hoping i could be the first to finish a whole VVVVVV based chapter, but i am still many days away I will make one anyways so i dont hope my levels will remind to much about yous (I am pretty creative with the level ideas/design so probably not). But i am looking forward to see your Viridian chapter, since your other chapters so far has been just amazing
