Very nice skychase, I especially like the lab part ;)

skychase2rebirth 02-12-2012 10:54 PM

My level is finally completed, there was just two little part missing in the last version, but this time, I removed the first screen "hoist", and abe's bird portal from the second, a new secret, a little "stockyard" teaser... ^^

Really beautiful to watch or play :)

Am I the only one who can't get the download link to work?

I played through it, I assume the end is when you use the platform to get outside? When I walked to the left the game took me to the Stockyards.

This is your most amazing work yet skychase! How did you come up with the idea for that shrink door!?

Just a couple of complaints though :-
Again, part of the level required you to jump over a slog.

I think you should have made this screen much easier with a sign or something, took me ages to figure it out!

Thanks a lot, I took the Shrink door idea from Tomba! 2 on psx. Look at 9:00



And sorry for the slog part, I got so used to this trick that I put slogs without even thinking about it... but I think there's another way to get rid of them, it takes longer though.

Sorry for the double posts... I throwing out some ideas. ^^ Glukkons' honey production.

You do know there are actually bees in Abe's Oddysee right?

Varrok 02-24-2012 08:54 AM

I know most factories visited by Abe make products based on Mudokons :P Meat, Bones

Hi ! Stockyard escape's first path completed, two secret areas, whole new BGs. Hope you'll like it. ^^ http://filesmelt.com/dl/e18.lvl

Fantastic !

Varrok 02-28-2012 07:45 AM

The image looks stunning, but I don't have AO installed to play :/

kapteeni13 02-28-2012 09:47 AM

Today my computer crashed and no hope to play Sky's amazing levels... :crying: :compmad:

Is everything in that screenshot a background object?

I can't seem to tell.

skychase2rebirth 02-28-2012 11:23 AM

I took screenshots and put the inside/secret parts together so it look's better... ^^

It looks awesome, I dunno what you're using to make your backgrounds but it might be worth knowing they're 16bit colour in game - not 32 bit. So if you make them in 16bit colour they should import without looking too dithered.

WolfensteinOdess 02-29-2012 12:37 AM

New lvl !

First screen :

JennyGenesis 02-29-2012 01:40 AM

How did you align them perfectly?

Was the CAM originally just one big image which you then split up for the separate screens?

skychase2rebirth 02-29-2012 07:47 AM

No, I use guide lines in photoshop so I can place my objects perfectly, then I reuse the same level pieces and put shadows so it looks like one big CAM.

@WolfensteinOdess: I'm waiting for this level ^^.

Edit: Walkthrough.


MeechMunchie 02-29-2012 12:33 PM

You know, I've just been browising this thread, and I'm surprised it's not getting more coverage from the rest of the forums. I mean, this is stuff AO fans have been dreaming of for years.

JennyGenesis 02-29-2012 01:47 PM

It feels as if there is only a small group of us that post here :(

gishygleb 02-29-2012 09:46 PM

I think so.

To tell the truth, many topics on this forum are freaking. But they are popular.

We are not favourable, as we are in the sub-zulag ODDWORLD MODS AND HACKS, and nobody cares about it.

Moreover, the level editor is a huge project, that's why we should have our own zulag on the forum.

P.S. In my opinion...

I'll start posting again once I get all the oddworld stuff installed back on. I've just been too busy with the retro netbooks lately, but I want to start level making again. Hopefully as good as that level I did a while ago. I should've finished that.:p

WolfensteinOdess 03-01-2012 03:22 AM

@skychase2rebirth : Yes ! And I have finish to edit the first path ! After, in the second path, you will go in stockyards but just 3 CAMS and 3 secrets CAMS !

Good level :)

Thats a very nice level :D I like the dark theme to it.

skychase2rebirth 03-02-2012 07:49 PM

Thanks ^^, I just realized my new level will probably put the sewers BGs to shame... I'll probably re-edit them later. ¬¬

*Edited* Moubntains (second path)

Level: http://filesmelt.com/dl/e19.lvl

Amazing again :) How did you do the none moving beam lasers?

Crashpunk 03-03-2012 05:18 AM

I actually lost track on the lvl editting and to see what skychase2rebirth has made just blew my mind.

I need to learn how to do this!

JennyGenesis 03-03-2012 08:07 AM

Skychase is this the completed version of your mountains level?

Because right now I've no interest in downloading little parts of it.

Try downloading DOOM textures, and making a level in Paint.NET. They're surprisingly good for oddworld levels. If you don't have DOOM you can try downloading the free texture packs for it off of realm667.com and using SLADE 3 to extract them. It's what I'm going to be doing.

EDIT: Has anyone got that screen object layout picture?

I put the Width to 25 and the moving speed to 0.

I'll try to update the Cam editing tutorial thread a little bit later, but first, 5 useful things: Textures, Brushes, Abe Exoddus Cams, Shadows and Masks. ^^

No sorry, just the second path, 3 more to go...

Thanks everyone, your support is my motivation. :fuzsmile:

RoryF 03-03-2012 09:54 AM

Skychase, do you have that CAM object alignment thing, I want to make more CAMs but I don't have the object thing so I can put in the objects correctly on the grid.

gishygleb 03-03-2012 10:25 AM

It's pretty easy! AND COOL!!!

WolfensteinOdess 03-03-2012 10:26 AM

Who can send me PhotoShop ? I can't download it :/

Varrok 03-03-2012 12:59 PM

Send it? We don't even know your address (besides the country is France ofc)

PS: Piracy's illegal

RoryF 03-03-2012 01:50 PM

Unless you want the Photoshop 4.0 from my old laptop you aren't going to get it.

skychase2rebirth 03-04-2012 11:15 AM

I'm trying something, I put some Silent hill textures on one test cam of my sewer level...

http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/k...th/compare.jpg

Which one do you prefer ?

Varrok 03-04-2012 11:36 AM

I'd use the first one
