Ok, I gotta admit that almost noone here understands what the "tweak" means... forgive them
(It's just making minor changes to scripts etc., NOT adding any ANIMATIONS, MUSIC or whatever)
Ok, here's what I think would be cool if you do:
- Camera: It'd be cool if the angle was more like in modern games...
Before:
After:
But if you do that, you must be aware that if you rotate it [and move/rotate munch] like that it might cause some camera collision issues, like rendering parts from outside of the map:
So do it only if youre 101% sure there won't be anything like that
...oh, and could you zoom the camera in a little? On most open areas abe/munch is too small to enjoy all HD details (and it's hard to immerse or something...)
- The "Boings".... they're freakin' annoying, remove 'em... i haven't met a single person who honestly said he/she likes it... other "funneh" sounds aren't cool either
- Jumps... there's nothing you can tweak here, really - if you change the gravity, it would look like he's on the moon, you can't change the height of jumps (to normal mudokon values) without changing level geometry...
- No point of changing running speed without changing jumping speed
- As DarkHoodness said, increasing draw distance would be nice
- TBH replacing scrab/paramites sounds to "normal" AO/AE sounds is a must-do... "making footsteps more subtle" is a good idea too, if you happen to have an appropriate sound file
- "Put back the F5/F6 Quicksave/Quickload hotkeys from AE. (Did anyone else but me knew they existed? :P)" I didn't know and begged for them on steam forums : o
- "Make the text added to the PC version match the visual style of the game. It looks like someone opened the screens in MS Paint and painted green and red texts on almost random locations." - sooooooo true. And answer me, who needs stupid, ugly-looking text "Use arrows to select buttons" in main menu? We're not dumb. Plz delete it
- Rethink default keyboard controls - they're awful. Mouse control is really bad (despite of being useless anyway). I changed controls immediately to scheme similar to AO/AE and it worked.
- The crane control on PC version was bad because it had no shadow, and a player had no idea if it's at the right position (red-green lights are helpful, but not as helpful as the shadow).. maybe change camera angle to be more vertical
PS: That's not exactly a tweak (more like a minor...change...yeah), but I agree with
:

Give each Mudokon a different voice pitch, like in AE.

- It's not so hard/time-consuming to code, and the effect is great
PS2: A (long) while ago I made a buglist for MO PC port at steam forums - it contains some minor problems, could you look at it and tweak the game a little to repair some (the least important ones) of them? (

Thank you a lot
