Yes, there is a wireframe map option in XL. And last I checked, Diedel made it a lot simpler to install the whole thing without having to place objects in specific directories. It just 'unzipped that way.' and all you had to do now was just click the exe file and away you went.

DarkFlameWolf

Yeah I remember Naptha asking if he could make a D2 port of Vignettes and I was just like...oh..sure!

DarkFlameWolf

Completely forgot I made a D1 version of Lost Levels....do I even have it on my HD anymore?

DarkFlameWolf

For the D1 version anyway, I made sure there were 0 bugs in the DLE-XP level checking thingy before calling a level finished.

DarkFlameWolf

seems like an odd thing for Naptha to change in the trigger department....

DarkFlameWolf

Very nice review and congrats on beating it on insane! Bravo!

DarkFlameWolf

Yeah, it is pretty amazing the amount of folks I 'lured' in to help out on projects. It all worked out in the end and the players benefited the most from it! :3

DarkFlameWolf

Honestly, it'd be a simple, yet tedious, matter of opening up DMB2, booting up all the AF levels, removing all the robots (or just the badly placed ones), removing their 'robot spawn on death' attributes of those that have it, change up the matcen robot spawns and change the existing line-out to a m...

DarkFlameWolf

*Cough* I would recommend Descent Vignettes. *Cough*

DarkFlameWolf

Vertigo had that nice balance of long and short levels. Nothing that felt excruciatingly boring.

DarkFlameWolf

Neato.

DarkFlameWolf

Interesting. Can anyone else confirm this and can either Darkhorse or Sirius see something in the level I cannot in terms of what could be causing the crash? I think it might be the music chosen actually rather than anything to do with the level itself. So honestly, look into the hog file and remove...

DarkFlameWolf

Also, how to make the Descent 1 executable see custom missions? I can't seem to get it to work for some reason. EDIT: Figured it out. Since there's no "Missions" folder, you just put the files into the game's folder. No biggie! Vignettes work fine with vanilla, indeed they do! That was th...

DarkFlameWolf

Xfing, I'm looking at the two images you posted and that seems to be a very common cube layout as far as I'm concerned. It opens up from a 20x20x20 cube hallway into a big square room and then offshoot that back into normal cubes on all sides. Even Descent 1 does this a few times and now that I thin...

DarkFlameWolf

I'm pretty flexible. But if you don't want me touching your 'babies' (your levels), I fully understand.

DarkFlameWolf

Stretching? If putting the weapons mod in another SP mission is stretching XL, then I'd wager to say having the weapons mod in Lost Levels (with which is was prepackaged) is stretching it as well. Simply playing Lost Levels should have stretched the engine far sooner than what RCG is doing. The new ...

DarkFlameWolf

I've always been good at robot placement and I'd love to take a shot at balancing the mission provided you give me guidance what you are looking for so I don't go off on my own doing it.

DarkFlameWolf

You know....I never did read the very first post of this thread thoroughly. I just noticed you mention my name for robot and weapon balancing at the end. Coupled with the email sent for 'quality assurance' recently, I guess I'm on board with this project somehow? Lol Not that I mind but I had no clu...

DarkFlameWolf

My guess is because nobody really tested my Lost Levels weapons mod/pack with XL thoroughly and we are just now seeing XL flip out in crashing bugs as a result of lack of testing.

DarkFlameWolf

Good job homeyduh! I'm thinking of creating a D2 design in DLE which can hopefully be 'remastered' in SolC! XD

DarkFlameWolf

"And this is where they keep their greatest storage of yummy puppies."

DarkFlameWolf

Shameless pimping of my levels here but here are the sets I made if interested: Bahagad Outbreak - 10 levels, 2 secret levels, one new boss, kruel-made final boss arena, and a few new robots strewn throughout the levels. A good, small quality mission set for Descent 2, was also my first created. Lin...

DarkFlameWolf

Ver 1.4 is out! Thanks for all the patience and stuff during this time while we fixed a crapton of bugs and offered you D-Pad support. Finally! No more sliding woes for those who were stuck utilizing joysticks! We also addressed the issue of having the Mega Buster not blast through weak enemies as w...

DarkFlameWolf

And here are some cinema sins for the same movie!

I'd have the movie here posted directly, but have no fething idea the board code needed to have it appear as in the first post.

DarkFlameWolf

Do you have a video of your technique there tunnelcat? j/k!

DarkFlameWolf

I'm not sure who the person was, but I was PM'd by someone who apparently knows(?) people on the team and was impressed with my work and suggested I apply to be a level designer. Even if this were true, I'm flattered, but I unfortunately have no time these days to learn a new building program to mak...

DarkFlameWolf

Version 1.3 is released! http://rpgmaker.net/games/2406/downloads/6396/ This is the definitive version of the game now. Barring any other bugs that might crop up, for which we'll release minor updates for, there should be no more drastic changes to the game, levels or its difficulty. You either need...

DarkFlameWolf

Ver 1.2 is out! Alongside a nice collection of fixed bugs! I also altered quite a few level design aspects which should appease those players who cried foul on the unfair aspects of certain design decisions! Hopefully this plays a lot smoother! Thanks everyone for the help on fine tuning this beast!...

DarkFlameWolf

It have been 6 years in the making (since 2008!) but Jman and I (Yes, THAT Jman) have been working on and off together on a Megaman game. Granted, it doesn't have any new graphics (or very little) and no new music, but that's because at the early stage of production where we could have used spriters...

DarkFlameWolf

I'll see if I can use my connections I have with him and see if he responds to you.

DarkFlameWolf

You mean Jeff250? I think he was also the one who was helping me create a Descent 3 version of Genova Catacombs...whatever happened to that Jeff? Do you still have the unfinished level file at all?

DarkFlameWolf

If I'm not mistaken, I think Lightwolf 'contributed' a level to The Enemy Within. I think it was level 17, The Endless Flows. Granted, I had to rebuild that level from scratch and make it into something more than what was given to me, but his basic design never changed. I tried to stay true to his b...

DarkFlameWolf

I find it funny and flattering that people refer to Vignettes as a benchmark or something to compare to. Thanks Xfing, you made my night.

DarkFlameWolf

Now THIS is a interesting mission set idea! I'd like to see the entire doom game or wolfenstein game converted to this type of level design and make it coop compatible. That would be a fun experience for all involved when playing.

DarkFlameWolf

I have done the same with a good chunk of my levels too.

DarkFlameWolf

You could always play with my weapons mod for a brand new experience....heh heh

DarkFlameWolf

Theoretically you can, however after you are done editing and replacing robots in the Descent.pig file, you better make damn sure it is the exact same file size as the original pig. Why? There seems to be some sort of checksum that looks to the pig file being a certain file size and if it deviates e...

DarkFlameWolf

You need to remake the entire D2 level set. Just sayin'

DarkFlameWolf

Most are good for coop, it are ones that are heavily reliant on control panel switches like Obsidian that might get you in trouble during packet loss.

DarkFlameWolf

As long as you are willing to branch out from First Strike, Counterstrike and Vertigo every now and then for some custom missions, I'm all game for coop.
