Somehow I doubt that's true, trosh.
If it is true, he's made a terrible choice.

You need to hold the cube in the way of the laser or it won't work. They aren't magic forcefield cubes.

that happens when the cube is not in front of you, it doesn't protect you from the laser anymore (*minifacepalm*)

You have to move the mouse courser so that Mario never moves ahead of it else the cube he is holding will switch to being held the other side of him!

Not sure if you saw it, but in his latest video, CaptainSparklez managed to get a cube stuck in the wall quite consistently.

Every update should have a new different map or something, or make a contest top 10 best maps and add them to the game by default. Also a tutorial how to install custome maps because I have no idea how to play them...;(

And that's intentional by design. Seriously, think about it. If you don't position it between you and the lazer the lazer is totally gonna cut you in half since the impenetrable block is no longer in the way.

To the n00b army: Discover. Experiment. Learn. Understand. Shut the fuck up and think before you complain about the game.

Best regards, lovechild.

Also, 1.6 appears to require more of my processor than 1.5 with the musicloader_thread fix I was kindly linked to on IRC. And the game occasionally fails to load on request, still yet to run it in terminal, will post an update whenever I run in term and encounter this issue.

These entities refuse to spawn because they are behind the area where the player spawns and can't be seen from where the player spawns.

Anything not marked spawns fine.

Chwoka, this is known and not a bug at all. Going backwards doesn't make enemies spawn. You should probably change your level design.

I don't think that's true. This is the same problem I encountered when I was editing 1.4 to make spikeys be able to be stomped by boxes. The problem is in goomba:stomp() (spikeys are modified goombas). The animation line that it calls for stomped goombas or spikeys is "self.quad = goombaquad[spriteset][2]". That makes sense for goombas, where the spriteset matters. But for spikeys, the spriteset isn't used. I think this has the effect of only using part of the 16x16 pixel box for frame 2, but stretching it vertically to be 16x16. So it's not the graphic Maurice intended, just the one that happens to show up. The fix:

Code: Select all

function goomba:stomp()--hehe goomba stomp
	self.dead = true
	self.active = false
	if self.t == "goomba" then
		self.quad = goombaquad[spriteset][2]
	else
		self.quad = spikeyquad[2]
	end
end
If you want there to be a frame especially for a spikey being stomped, here's what I drew: Image ... You'll also have to go through and change goomba:update in the spikey section. Any time it used to call frame 2, call frame 3 instead; do the same to switch 3 to 4 and 4 to 5. Also fix the initial frame in goomba:init for "spikeyfall" from 3 to 4. And adjust main.lua to do this when loading in spikey's graphics:

Code: Select all

spikeyquad = {}
	for x = 1, 5 do
		spikeyquad[x] = love.graphics.newQuad((x-1)*16, 0, 16, 16, 80, 16)
	end
If I had been smarter, I would have put the stomped frame in the new 5th spot and not twiddled with the frame numbers.

yeah, that makes sense. I think what stretches the picture is the fact that the function probably gives a wrong size for the complete image in the drawq function. I don't want to look into this in details, but even though I found it kind of strange it could be accidental the graphics looks like a spikey being stretched as it's stomped, your analysis seems more understandable. Yay lots of words to say very little.

Yes. And I was trying to prove that fact with the video. And you spelled "laser" wrong.

The star music doesn't override the custom music, so they blend together.

Well uhm, possibly because mari0 started out as an exact clone of SMB with the NSMB multiplayer concept.

So yeah,once the mario physics and gameplay was sorted, then the portal elements were added and lookie wha'cha got. Wanna fix it? Mod it. Can't mod it? Conform.

I did report this a fair while ago, I either explained it badly or he just wasn't interested in fixing it.

This may or may not be a glitch but when i make a maze and put "PORTAL" entitys in it they show up in the original part of the maze but not in any other parts but for all i know Maurice could have wanted it that way.

Custom backgrounds don't work on sub levels... custom music is combined with star music when achieved.

Actually the custom backgrounds do work just won't load when you test the level in the level editor. They should appear if you enter through a pipe. But still it is a bit annoying with then not loading.

One more problem: once you exit the level (as far as I know, it's the quiting and resuming part), with the bullettime slowed down (with cheats), the editor is also slowed down AND when you resume the level it's stuck at that speed... the game is still awesome, though.

I reported this ages ago and Maurice seems to have ignored it despite how easy it would be to fix.

yeah but that's not worth the trouble. Because as Maurice already said in a blogpost, it's details which are not important to make a game good.

Trosh, it's not a feature of gameplay. Small features of gameplay are what make a game good, not being bug-free.
But while we're on the topic of small things, why are you still using that inferior not gate sprite when I already made you a better one?

At least it's actually a not gate, instead of just a buffer like you have in the game right now.

If that means a buffer that works like a NOT gate, there's a specific way to draw that. With a circle after the triangle.

I always saw the icon in the game as a triangle with a circle in front of it by instinct. Usually the circle is much smaller than the one you (Cam) made, so in this case it's the size of the pixel. At least that's how I see it.
But I still don't see why anyone cares.

Well, it is the small details that count, and in this case it's just wrong. It's like saying 'Oh hey I added and gates and or gates' and using sprites like these:

For the record, Image and Image are AND and OR gates.

and an xor is a or gate with a bendy line at the back.

Doesn't anyone remember Windows ME? IMO, that was the worst and still is the worst major release for Microsoft. Vista was a flop but nothing like ME. XP was a good OS but has tarnished over time.
