Quick question from me:
Would it be possible to utilise those silly hidden messages made out of collision paths for our own use? It would be pretty handy to have ones that we can just use. |

Editing the text requires editing the exe, which although being quite easy, it might raise legal issues when releasing the level (Unless you release the changes as a patch file and not in an .exe form)
About the hidden messages – yes, they can be used for whatever you'd like. :) |
hm will it be possible to make new files and add them to cams to replace the backgrounds
|
:
I've added some default images to objects so its easy to see what's going on, bumps up the CPU usage quite a bit though. |
:
Also, in the next version, will it be possible to control where moving bombs move? |

Is the next editor release expected before Christmas? Or is there still a lot more to do? |
I hope the next oddworld editor release is here before next weekend.
|
Well I want a toilet made out of solid gold, but it's just not in the cards now is it?
|
Weekend again.
|
Pushy, aren't you?

I look here every day and it is never wrong to say that the whole week has passed when nothing has happened here within a week. |
The only people who have the right to say that to Paul are his boss and his lover(s). And that might be part of the reason why he chose not to update his project this week.

Anyway...Thanks guys for all that you have done so far :) It is greatly appreciated. You take as long as you want ;) |

I'm sorry for it but please get a life man. I understood that it could be fun to mess up with the Oddworld levels on a user friendly way but I think there is much more interessting and important stuff in the world than modifying an old game.

He'll get it done soon. He said it will be done by Christmas, and it isn't quite Christmas yet, so he must be doing a good job. |
Nate says that Paul comes by occassionally and he always posts an update
or a new related oddworld tool. And Jango will be proud by the progress Paul has made. And i say thanks in advance for the future for Paul and LIJI. |
I didn't say 'always', fyi.
|
Paul updates when there's something relevant to let you guys know. Since he's not updating he's probably fixing bugs that really shouldn't bother you. I talk to Paul on AIM and I know he's working A LOT on the editor, almost every day, so don't worry about it, "It'll be ready when it's done".

wow,i cant wait for this to get finished,i made a bunch of ae lvls with your editors,but the last one i uploaded nobody responded

mistake post.
please remove. |
ill try that,(goes trying the elevator thingy)
|
Sorry I haven't posted much lately, I've been pretty ill again and busy with real life since its near xmas and all :P
That lift crash is because in the released editor you can't change which "screen" a object will get loaded in. Also a lift has other object it needs to work, the one called "lift mover" or "lift controller", so without those the chances are that it will just crash like that (plus the fact its not loading in the right screen). I'll post an updated version in a day or so to keep you guys happy :P But be aware it will be pretty buggy and unfinished, although better than nothing I guess. |
wow,ill try that out and post a lvl
|
Scraby, I'll make an edited levels thread especially for posting and downloading levels, so please post it there instead. Thanks. It will be in the Fan Corner.
Can't wait for the update. Does it have the adding objects feature? :) EDIT: My level variations thread is now up and ready for use! |
Damn I hate it when I get caught out like that. Seems to be happening a lot lately.
Truth be told, we're dealing with a semantic misunderstanding here. In that previous post I meant 'update' as in 'Letting you know what's going on'. When I responded last in this thread, I thought you meant 'update' as in 'A newer version of his software'. My apologies. |

Edit: Here we go, version 0.2. Check the readme for all info. I was going to add a property editor for collision items but I won't have enough time. This version contains all required DLL's because it was getting a little confusing last time :) (And it now depends on one more) |

If only I knew you're address, I would send you a big Oddworld cake with a card... :) |

yeah!!! thx paul :D
Edit:hm the x ----> is a bit problematic,i cant center it to the doors :/ |
Unfortunately I'm having issues too...
I add an object to a screen (UXB for example), and it works as long as I go onto the screen and as I'm on the screen, but when I leave the screen the game crashes. Also, if I add mines, they will not work either. |
yeh happened to me :/ i really made a hard rupture farms lvl,just to make the beggining a bit rough,with floating mines,slogs,more sligs,lifts,orbs....
