WHA? Fast paced music? BAH! This must’ve been the level I tested my mods with. Originally it had the colonius music. Sorry I didn’t pick this up when I tested the level because I had JJ2 music on mute busy listenign to Club Anthems 2000 (way cool music cd ;)

Ok I just tested the thingy, and the music file is friends.xm. I’m not even suprised that mod is playing, i love it! :) but it’s not da right music for da level. Anyways, for those of you who complain about the hard-to-find bases I removed the password. When it asks for it just press “enter”. I’ll re-upload the level now (i just hope this works).

yes, a big back of good battles! (ok, I know it’s just 1 level.)

Despite the fact that all of these are conversions (and they are TSF only), I liked these battle levels. They have good design, eye candy and such. Complaints include the fact that the layers can get confusing. Weapons were a bit excessive, too. Overall this battle pack is worth downloading if you’re bored and want a good pack to play on TSF. :-)

1) To small (-2)
2) Not enough eye candy (-1)
3) -0,5 (standard procedure with me)

Heh, i beat it. 5 minutes :-) Im experienced in exploring confusing levels i guess. Actually i don’t think "FoDTemple" is that bad. The tileset is used nicely and eyecandy at least still hits the average.
Of course, it could get very confusing to find the exit ‘cause of all the different paths in this "Tower". And there are also some minor tile/mask bugs.
Summary: I don’t know, just download if you feel like. Its not a must.

Pretty nice level using the great Temple tileset by EvilMike. Design and eyecandy are good.
Unfortunately it’s a bit too easy and the warp event is overused. Nevertheless, this is a good single player level, at which everyone should take a look.

FoDDiamondus is a slightly above the average single player level i think. The eyecandy is okay but i found some things in the design, which i dont like: for example, there are “dead-ends”, places where you have to die or keep falling (like in an Sierra Adventure, i more prefer LucasArts ;-)
Besides i think that a real good level needs an original name. However, if you are bored and want to have some 10-minutes-single player fun this could be interesting. Decide for yourself.

Pretty nice battle levels. Well, found a few complaints for each… but who cares about 2 small things?

Sorry this was so hard to figure out that you never found the end.. I didn’t intend for that to happen.

I just told iCeD how to beat it, and if any of you can’t beat this, I’ll try to help you out.

Too large and out in the open, too many weapons in places, something I don’t like about it for some odd reason… Oh, yeah, large. I don’t like this as much as your others, really.

My least fave by FoD for a couple of reasons:

Tedious and confusing.

I never could find a way to win this… I just kept going around in circles.

Anyone can make a single player level like this, I hope. :-)

The above statement is true, I do like this level. :-)

This is prolly my fave by FoD, it had nice design, eye candy (this includes the way tiles were used, etc.) and such.

Just a few problems:

The parts near the end got sort of tedious.

Some parts can be tricky to figure out.

Overload of enimies in various spots..

Overall: Want a good single player? Get this one. :-)

Not bad, actually. But I did find some problems:

The “Jump up” part led me to some frustration to find the warp. (I’m so stupid.)

The part where you can touch the bottom is just evil.

A few more that I’m too lazy to write.

The eye candy was good (oops, you didn’t do that. Teehee.)

Overall you should get this if yer a single player fan.

“Disguise’s Beach Bonanza” (hmmm…:-) is a first class battle pack including two Beach levels.
Okay, lets check my fully automatic review creation station: Eyecandy is great. Bleep. Design…brilliant. High seven points (7.6). Download recommended!
EOF. Please give new input, need more Disguise levels. Bleep.

I can’t help it: i just like Disguise’s level style. And Colonius is actually one of my favourite tilesets. Heh.
I think this is another great quality level release with many interesting ideas of how to use the tileset. No doubt, design and eyecandy are great, as always in Disguise’s levels.
As you may know, i’m not a CTF expert so i can’t say much about the base placement. But i agree with iCED that they were not too easy to locate.
What i dislike a bit is the music choice. I think the fast-paced custom track (which is, btw, not included in the pack!) doesnt fit very good. I’d would like to listen to the original Colonius music here.
Overall, it’s still great and a another Disguise creation that no Jazz fan should miss!!! Download now!

Aha, a new experimental review fashion invented by iCeD. Well, you know im pretty conservative so here i go:
I fully agree with the author: "Toxic Waste" (don’t get it mixed up, ShadowGPW also released a #1 level called "Toxic Waste") is one of my favourite levels by him, mainly because of its great design. The layer work and everything else is first class as well.
To sum it up: it’s always fun to roast some bunnies in this level. I really think its a classic and a MUST-DOWNLOAD! (Low eight points. I was undecided between 7 and 8 points.)

"Jungle Warfare" has everything a great battle level needs. Beautiful eyecandy, superb design and the weapon placement isn’t that bad in my opinion (i guess thats because i’m a Battle/Disguise fan).
Everyone should download this and host a decent online battle party! :-)

P.S.: The next level setting is "wrong", if you dont have the level "dis25" (very minor bug i think)

Nifty, two good levels using the beach set. And I must say I like the beach set, btw. :-)

The design, eye candy and such for these two levels were good, event placement could have been improved slightly, and the lack of one ways near the spring part of shores or sorrow gets annoying.

Overall: Two more good Disguise levels. Download or not? Yes please. :-)

HEY! I like the colonius set! :)
I know it’s too big, that was the point, I actually wanted a big level that could do wonders for a full server. You never get those lately, so it was a bad idea, but I still wanted it big in case :)

I was quite the weapons placement freak back then, so it’s pretty normal to see lotsa weapons from my previous releases, I give you my full permission to rate the levels as low as you want because of that :)
