Level variations thread: Post + download new/edited levels here!

[skychase2rebirth]

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]

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]

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

[gishygleb]

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.

[WolfensteinOdess]

@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 I like the dark theme to it.

[skychase2rebirth]

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)

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

[Crashpunk]

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]

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?

[skychase2rebirth]

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.

[RoryF]

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]

It's pretty easy! AND COOL!!!

[WolfensteinOdess]

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

[Varrok]

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

PS: Piracy's illegal

[RoryF]

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

[skychase2rebirth]

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



Which one do you prefer ?

[Varrok]

I'd use the first one

[JennyGenesis]

I tried out your mountains level skychase, how in the hell do you rescue that first mudokon!?

Also, is it possible to pass that screen with the sleeping slig and all the mines? The screen to the left of the first one if you avoid the bird portal.

First- To save the first mudokon, you must bring him where the first UXB is, then you wait until the middle meatsaw is at his head's height (going up) and chant. (look at my walkthrough for more details)

Second- All cams (outside part) except the one with the bg slig are covered with "Invisible zone" object, just sneak and stop.

[JennyGenesis]

I wasn't referring to that mudokon, I was referring to the mudokon on the screen that you exit the bird portal.

also, cheers for your help, I had no idea you were hidden from Sligs/=.

You can download only pirate version without purchasing.
For example, I have the whole pack of adobe cs5.5 (more that 15 products).
I can give you a link, but, if you are a piratehater, you can ignore me.

;-)

[WolfensteinOdess]

x'D I pirate AO and AE ^^ But I can't pirate PhotoShop CS5 :/

[Nate]

Please don't discuss software piracy on these forums.

[WolfensteinOdess]

Ok.

[WolfensteinOdess]

For the users of PLE 6 (For AE) There is a little error :

For the mud, there is Blind and Emotion.

But Blind is Inverted with Emotion !

So I change it (I just edit the XML file) and now I have it :

Is Photoshop 4.0 okay? I mean, it is abandonware after all.

If you can find me evidence of Adobe officially releasing the copyright freely, then fine. Otherwise, no.
