You guys are relentless.

uhh k, heres some screens from Skyrush.

Looking good, jackostar. Although maybe that lighting on the trees should be a bit darker. And those clouds look like MSPaint.

Is that an aerial faith plate in that first picture?
Or am I just hoping people had managed to reskin portal stuff and put it into mario mappacks without it looking terrible?

My mappack is coming along like clockwork:

Did you by any chance try to edit the level.txt?
I found that doing so will corrupt the file.

I believe thats an error loading animated tiles. although idk, i'm no programmer.

In function "loadlevel", in file "animatedquad.lua", what gave you that idea?

Qwerty, I'd hazard a bet your tiles aren't a multiple of 17 long and high.

Nope, the only animated tile is 85x17, and it's used in the 1-1, which doesn't crash. Also, I only edited the .txt to use the new delimiters, but it crashed before then anyway.

blame guegan and walk away slowly
maybe you had an animated tile in there previously or something I can't tell without the mappack

I'm sure this will, though.
EDIT: Oh yeah and there's a metric fuckton of animated tiles in the level.

link doesn't work

well,if you're using beta_7,use 8 or 9 with the alesan's fix tab stuff,did you remember when i screwed the entire forum for a while because of this?

yea its a faithplate, i use them every now and then for island hopping.

If you want to check how it's done, Go ahead.

My name is bubba0nate
You killed my mari0
Prepare to be dunked in salad dressing until the dressing turns into dressers.

(When I selected it mari0 died and now mari0 crashes on startup because it tries to load it. What version are you using? I'm sticking with _8 at the moment until another fairly stable update comes out.)

9enemies. Try removing the mappack.

I'm about 90% sure this is guegan's fault for having dodgy code but hey

Yeah it surely isn't the whole different map format between _8 and _9 which I announced.

nah that's silly 200% your fault

Camwel... How do you get away with making fun of admins?
Anyways, I use _8 with the new enemies.lua, so of course it would crash.

and he still gets access to the beta sub-forum

What?

You guys need to stop shitting all over threads.

The small text function is beginning to become very overused.

Since I don't want this thread to be locked,

also, @magic pillow, what program do you use for your gifs? they're really smooth and well done

How the f@%$ did you do that?

Edit: I was asking about that secret thing?

MM102 wrote: also, @magic pillow, what program do you use for your gifs? they're really smooth and well done

I use gifcam.
I'd send you a link, but my internet seems to be broken.
I'm writing this from my IPhone, if you're wondering.

nonsolid blocks with a region trigger and a fade animation on the blocks

The fade blocks are a pain to make BTW

@majic pilllow I failed at typing lets try again,
@magic pillow I also use gif cam but it stutters a lot

There should be a FPS option by the "Rec" button.

Sometimes falling all the way back down can be a good thing.

Not the best background, but it is progress.

Donkey Kong Country, much?

Coming along nicely. With Tube tiles from Mr Q.Marx and a few tiles from SJB's tileset, just for proper sourcing.

The map-pack is just called Water. It was a tentative title but it grew on me.

Hey guys, apparently Louis Blériot plays Mari0
In all seriousness, here's an actual beta screenshot.

Some kind of elevator for my new mappack.

No animated tiles! No animated enemies! Just a background file and an animation script!

Oh, this is pretty clever. But it could be annoying for people who want to a more long animation

I've been working on the 1-up SE (Well I haven't had time to work on it lately). It'll be one of my best mappacks!
Now if you don't know what "The 1-up" is, it's the first mappack I posted on the forums. Links to The 1-Up 1 and 2.
It'll have hd-ish tiles, animated tiles, custom enemies, bosses, and awesome music!

It's still WIP. Enemies will get graphic updates as well.

EDIT: VVVVVV

Not collision tiles + VVVVVVV gel + invisibility

TurretBot wrote:Not collision tiles + VVVVVVV gel + invisibility

Wrong.
Gel won't appear on blocks without collision (and platforms become solid from all sides)

It's a bit complicated.
I made invisible animated tiles that are triggered. The first frame has collision, the second one doesn't.
There's a region trigger under the animated tiles and above. If the region trigger is activated, the animated tiles become nonsolid for a few seconds.
If the player jumps the player will stick to the animated tile and the animated tile will become nonsolid shortly after, allowing the player to go through it.
Oh and of course the gel is invisible.

This. This I like. Very interesting.

I dont think thats too complicated...

Actually now that I re-read it it isnt. But still neat that he managed to think of that.

SJB posted a background with mountains and water and I edited it so It had mario mountains instead.
