Io is done.

http://www.enspiar.com/dmdb/viewMission.php?id=1148

Unlike Ceres, you don't get a free quad 4 laser. Instead, you get a complementary regular 2, and have to find the rest in a secret. You might also recognize the key mechanics.

LightWolf

Since you can't cold start secret levels, I finished level 10 with basic weaponry and saved it at starting point of S1 level. That is why I have some points at start. I know, there is a pack of secret levels in database, but it means different level music and I'm also not sure about reactor strengt...

LightWolf

Any chance that I can build Io Outpost? (Whether it would work better as Ixion or Ganymede is up to you)

LightWolf

Then I guess 13 will have to do.

I honestly thought that '13' was a typo.

BC13? 16 is the level before BCMB.

LightWolf

(Remembers picking up invuln in demo and the deactivation sound plays)
Makes sense.

LightWolf

BC16 maybe? I think that the name "Beta Ceti Weapons Research" would sound cool for this level if it doesn't work for BCMB.

Also (not necessarily saying that I'm going to) I think that it's about time that someone worked on a secret level. Anyone agree?

LightWolf

Hi. I recently shot a couple of HotShot runs, and I'm wondering how to make them usable in YouTube. Anyone know how?

LightWolf

I got bored the other day, so I decided to build BCMB again . http://www.enspiar.com/dmdb/viewMission.php?id=1127 I shot for a rather large level, and I think I delivered. There are also a few tricky areas (if you're not careful in the 2nd part of the yellow door you will literally run into unavoida...

LightWolf

I play Terraria offline on steam (well, I used to anyway

) So SolC should work offline as well.

LightWolf

If you feel like uploading your favorite D3 level now, go right ahead!

LightWolf

Duh. The only reason that I asked was because of the Neptunian mine in D1. Oh, BTW, Here's Ceres. (Made in D1 as opposed to D2 this time) http://www.enspiar.com/dmdb/viewMission.php?id=1121 I've added some drones and small hulks for something to shoot at. There is a lot of OP gear towards the end to...

LightWolf

I've actually extracted Demon Bridge for personal use.

LightWolf

I should have it up by Saturday or Sunday at the latest. P.S. Why is everything (minus levels 2-4) in Solsys on a moon? P.P.S. Part of the reason for naming it "Ceres Military Depot" is because of the initial inspiration from "Neptune Storage Depot". (Nothing too direct like I ha...

LightWolf

Hi. Recently I've been working on a D1 level using the green texture set, and thus I began to think that I wanted to take on Ceres. On a side note, the working title is "[PLANET] Storage Depot", and I was wondering if I could maybe factor in that title somehow (maybe "Ceres Military D...

LightWolf

I'll keep the difficulty factor in mind after I got to "Hostage Hell" in "Ironblade". (Or was it Ironstar?)

LightWolf

I'll check it out for sure.

LightWolf

Hi. I've recently run out of missions, and I've really been feeling more like playing than building. Here's what I'm looking for: - D1 or D2 (No D2X or D3) - Reasonable structure quality - At least 3 levels - A challenge is OK (though not ridiculous difficulty) Go ahead and upload a link to your fav...

LightWolf

For the exit I can always use "delshiftb"

And I'll check out the updated version.

LightWolf

I tried using that once, but had to switch to a forcefield bridge when I couldn't tell it was there (even in 80-something percent cloak)
You can do this with a 100% cloak to get a solid black wall, or 0% cloak to get a completely transparent, yet not shoot-through-able, wall.

LightWolf

But by far the scariest level I have ever played was one I made myself many years ago using DMB2. It was very simplistic, just a few corridors that widened into rooms with some doors, a few energy centers and robots, but for some reason whenever I played it I got this feeling of utmost dread, I wou...

LightWolf

Class 2 Smelter: 800 from 1100 - such a high score not needed IMO I actually found the Smelter kind of intimidating. 950 perhaps? The SPIKE, on the other hand, could be dropped from 1300 to 1000-1100. It was about as deadly as a Class 1 Drone with the "imagespace" cheat code on. (Ok, mayb...

LightWolf

Maybe you could also throw in a hacker that triggered the outbreak of the modified virus with some sort of evil goal in mind. Another suggestion is to extend the "chapter" theme by including several minor storyline developments leading to a major development between games. (For example, re...

That reminds me of Vertigo level 19! (There's a hidden switch that will remove the grates in the hub room)
I'm gonna try this now...

LightWolf

If that's the case, then I don't know why the boss isn't working. I was just putting the soultion I know on the table from the most recent working version for me...

I do know for sure about the second boss, though. (I did look!)

Can't I be the most annoying?

I can be the most annoying!

LightWolf

(Note to moderators: This is supposed to have gazillion-in-a-row posts, ultra-long posts, etc.)
(Note to members: There's a reason that I made the note to moderators. Go ahead!)

Who can be the most annoying?

LightWolf

I also just now realized that I doubleposted!

And I'm really just being annoying with this doublepost (Muahahaha!)

Just got an idea for a thing in the testing zone... (Non-spoiler hint: The text above)

LightWolf

Must have been watching a video or something... *fails at straight face*

LightWolf

There are actually two pyrobots in the level. The other one is by the door you go through to get the red key (probably inserted in case the "first phase" didn't drop the real pyrobot). In standard D2, destroying the original would also destroy the alternate. Edit: The other version is actu...

LightWolf

Of course, you could have mentioned that the problem was in XL rather than DLE.
If that's the case, then make sure that the pig is in the same folder as XL. Also try putting XL in a separate folder.

In retrospect, DLE doesn't even have that error...

LightWolf

Do you mind if I take a shot at building the unfinished parts (along with minor edits here and there)? (I'll mention that I've edited it, and find a non-DMDB place to edit it)

And Xfing... You don't have any Uranian levels on the listing. Umbriel maybe?

LightWolf

I guess my attempts at convincing you that a fresh install is a bit excessive are futile... Unless I'm hinting too subtly, of course :P DLE doesn't need to be able to find where the files are. You do. If you know the location, go to the "preferences" tab and click "browse" next t...

No, unless put inside a robot by a level designer. (You can get one in robo-anarchy too that way)

I won't spoil it either, but I will give a hint. Descent 1 level 20 (Oberon Iron Mine).

LightWolf

I once had a dream where I was playing coop in a (nonexistant) Sirius-built level with Sirius and some other descenters. We had played through the level, with the structure spontaneously changing (in that way that dreams have). We had finally destroyed the reactor, and I forgot where the exit was. N...

LightWolf

(Yes, IK It's been about 6 months) Quick thing - I've found the original Class 1 Driller noise, along with a version of the perpetual boss tick with a roar-yawn thing overlaying it, in the Descent II sound files! Just go into DTX2, and play the "Class 1 Driller (silver)" and "Super Hu...

LightWolf

You could also try (if you haven't) downloading D2X-XL or DXX-Rebirth (I recommend the former for gameplay and the latter for organizability). They both use a folder called "data" and you can put the specific files you need in there. Warning! Don't make the same mistake I did and install t...
