Unhit! You are so lazy.

Here's a detailed explanation of how you make MCEs:

First of all put a blue spring in your lvl somewhere with the regenerator on. The generation time doesn't matter.

Secondly, put a Belt Left event under the blue spring. Don't do anything with it.

Thirdly, put a pulze light 3 tiles away from the blue spring. If it doesn't work, try 4 tiles or 2 tiles. Set the pulse light speed to:

21 - The ghost of Jazz
The ghost of Jazz is actually a smoke ring. That's why you get dizzy when you touch it.

41 - Jazz Jackrabbit 2 sign
This is actually a turtle shell seen as the JJ2 logo. It falls, bounces and it can be destroyed by TNT.

42 - Black rope
It's just like the swinging vine but you can't grab it. Use as a decoration.

109 - Jazz ALIVE !!!
This is just like the sucker seen as an airboarding Jazz. It moves slowly on the ground.

110 - Music letters
Yes. You see letters but when you place a TNT near and wait for it to explode you can hear weak music. When you shoot the caterpillar you can also hear this....

113 - JJ2 logo
This is a falling jj2 logo which changes its size and sometimes flips itself. After a few seconds it disappears and then you can see letters again... It can be destroyed by TNT. (not worthy to use)

117 - Airboarding Jazz
This is a turtle seen as the airboarding Jazz. It moves 9 tiles to the right and suddenly disappears. All what is left of it are the letters again.... When destroyed by TNT a jj2 logo jumps out. It also disappears when it reaches the edge.

118 - Walking letters 1
When these letters appear they move in the right direction until they reach the edge. Then they turn around, walk to the left 'till they reach the left edge and they turn around again. They can be destroyed by TNT. Use as a decoration.

125 - Walking letters 2
Same as walking letters 1 but they want to stay under your feet. Use as a decoration.

126 - Jumping letters
These letters stand still but when you are standing close to them and shooting they jump. You can also hear Fencer's sounds. They can be destroyed by TNT. Use as a decoration.

128 - Flying letters
When you get near they start flying. Then when you get away they land. Use as a decoration.

130 - Invisible rock
It's just like the rotating rock except that it's invisible.

137, 138 - Pinball paddles
They are pinball paddles but in another form.

151 - Strange queen boss
Well, it acts like the queen boss. The falling bricks are seen as jj2 logos. You can't shoot it while you see the letters. (not worthy to use)

152 - Another JJ2 logo
This is actually the floating sucker seen as the JJ2 logo. It flies, flips and changes size. It can be destroyed / shut down by TNT.

153 - Text bridge
Yes. It is a bridge but what kind? It's ten tiles long and unstable. set the pulse light's sync number to 1 to make it tough.

192 - Invisible gem ring
Just like the gem ring except that it's invisible.

197 - Following letters (orb)
The movement of this unusual thing is just like the movement of a witch. It just follows you. Use as a decoration.

200 - Jazz boss
This is actually a morphed Devan :P You see a Jazz shooting up and running around. When you defeat it it turns into flying dancing or dizzy Jazz just like Devan turns into a dragon when you defeat him. Don't forget about "Activate boss" event.

202 - Jazz geyser
You see large characters here but when you place some "TNT"s near they explode and hundreds of Jazzes fly out and disappear. These characters and Jazzes are just like the robot boss and his remains when you place a TNT near. Once destroyed you cannot move the screen. (it's frozen)

244 - Dancing Jazz
Hmm... This is actually a CTF base seen as the dancing Jazz with the characters surrounding him. Use as a decoration.

(many thanks to Overlord for the MCE list ;))

Yay, but I prefer SCEs. I somehow like 'em more ;).

And I am not lazy :P.

Oh, don't be silly. Of course you're lazy! :D (joke)

SCE's are good, but they're very limited. MCE's can generate loads of goody goodie stuff. :D

Yes, SCEs are limited. And the big problem is that most of them don't work all the time. But the weapons are weird and confusing :).

I don't think your previous reply is related to this topic either :)

Uniacke, maybe you should search the Link section of J2O if you have more questions like this.

Does the spring have to be blue?

Unhit

I guess so, yes. But it isn't displayed in the level anyways.
