Wind Meister4 update (as if you care)

Alright, instead of making this all fancy, i'll just cut right to the info.

Wind Meister4 is coming along nicely.......very nicely. Sadly, however,
the level has become so complex that i will have some system requirements that are needed to properly play the level.

you absolutely MUST NOT have hardware mode on when playing! i cannot stress the importance of this enough!

you will need a fairly spiffy pc to play it. i don't know the exact speed required, but to play smoothly, try something above 500mhz if possible. this is due to the hundreds of animations, and the lighting/transparency effects.

now for the good news.
I have finished 6 tests, 1 in-game cinematic , and a mini-puzzle. The level will have about 20 tests in all, at least 3 cinematics, and about 4 puzzles.


Just trying to keep you all informed. the level is by no means cancelled, I have just been busy working on other things. And i got a gamecube. w00t.

The end.

Wow. 500MHz? Neep.

It sounds good, despite the fact that my computer will never be able to run it. Which tilesets will be used, dare I ask?

I voted yes. It sounds interesting. I hate wind-based tests, but I'm sure that I'll like it anyway but I can't stand that Black Ninja. ;-P

Wow, I had no idea you were making a level like that, Blacko, craziness. I can a crappy 300 mhz but I'm gonna try and play it anyway.

I look forward to seeing it =P

Yay, WM4. HEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY, BN u never actually finished WM3 man. That's what u said in ur author's comment of WM2, you said it wasn't finished. And I kept waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, and waiting. So that's why it's still unrated from me

WM3?????? Am I missing something here? I don't think i've played it yet, i'll get it off J2O.

Good luck, BN or Fooruman...
Try to keep it very hard, and see if you can compete with my test level: Aerial Precision.

866 Mhz on this PC, I guess I passed. I really don't understand what memory has to do with a JJ2 level.

To run levels that have a lot of animated or transparent scenery, you need a fast computer.

hmm. you've all been begging for it, so i'll be starting up my Wind Meister4 preview server again. it showcases 6(i think, i don't want to go check) tests, 1 'cinematic', and 1 really short puzzle to show what they will be like.
