I have a great idea for MO's loading screens!
 
If there are any, of course. But if there are, why not decorate them with picures of Glukkon products? ;)

Yes With advertising as Buttflo, LongBuster or Chill pill.

Wow, those are great loading screens!

PinkHaired Mudokon CWR 08-13-2001 01:33 AM

Where did you get those?

abe333 08-13-2001 04:26 AM

Maby they could have a animated loading screen?

Like Abe running around or other characters running around or doing something on the screen?

Lantra 08-13-2001 01:54 PM

Xavier 08-13-2001 04:40 PM

Hey men thoses pics are on oddworldian...

Ronixis 08-13-2001 04:44 PM

Paramites cost an easy $470, Glukkon cash.

Say, can anybody tell me how to put a banner-thing in my sig (Like Pink Haired and the Blue Scrab have)?

Designer @ OI: *goes to forums*
*sees this topic*
"Mr. Lanning, i have a great idea..."

Ronixis:
you replace your paramite picture with a banner...
Abe Babe or Sydney will make you one if you ask nicely...that's where most people got them from...
just go here
they'll tell you how to put it on...

PS: your para pic is sliglty over-size...

I really like that idea... it would make sense to have the consumer products as loading screens, as the whole marketing for the game will be based around consumer products. Who knows, they may be already using that concept as we type! :)

Glad you asked about banners Ronixis... as now I won't have to bug you that your image is too large.

If you want someone to make one... just request in the topics in Off-Topic.

Loading screens hmm, how about an animation of some kind like abe chanting, or a scrab howling or something.


The oddworld video is cool, of course most people have seen it. I really find the thing at the end of the passport to oddworld clip very funny, so here it is:


The characters and places represented in the video you just have seen are fictional.
If you were led to believe otherwise might we suggest a strong medication? If you?d like to learn more about the Vykkers Labs fine family of products, buy the game. It will be fun we promise. No fuzzles were harmed in the making of this video (though some of their feelings were hurt). Are you still reading this? We?ve run out of clever things to say. This isn?t easy you know. Think you can do a better job, smart guy!?! We?d like to see you try. No actually we wouldn?t, then we might be out of a job.
Okay you can stop reading now. We're done.
All rights reserved. (Whatever that means) THE END

i think it would be cool to have a picture of munch or mabye some gabbits swimming as a loading screen.

Ronixis 08-14-2001 07:47 PM

YAY! I sent you a reply in that thread, Would you pleeeze make me a banner now?

Lantra 08-15-2001 01:50 AM

what are you talking about?

Ronixis 08-15-2001 07:09 PM

I was talking to Abe Babe, not you. sorry.

Loading screens r highly doubtful. They only had them in AE & AO b-cos of the memory and it took longer 4 the game 2 get the scenery rite. But wiv the XBOX it is quicker and thus no loading screens will b needed...if i am wrong about the lack of memory in AE/AO then sorry...but thats wot i thort...

Ronixis 08-16-2001 05:30 PM

There will be a few loading screens when:

-You switch discs
-You load a save file
-You change levels
-An FMV sequence initiates
