Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

online my name is Thyst. hey cool tileset loads of cool detail. i agree with Violet really is lik Eygpt

MASKING: To be honest, masking just sucks. Few objects are masked awfully,
for example the small column and Dopefish. Also, the mask messages are looking like a job of n00b. Plus, vines are too thick to move on them.
Pros: Feweral.
Cons: Miserable.
Rating: 1.5

ANIMATION: There is NO any animation here, despite the ugly destruct blocks.
I cannot explain how it sucks ;\
Pros: N/A
Cons: NO animations.
Rating: 1.0

COLOR: This tileset has totally messed up palette. While Jazz works slightest,
everything other is rather light than
dark. Suckers are yellow, RF missiles are yellow also, as well Spaz and Lori.
It seems like author was concepted mostly on Jazz (biasing).
Tileset contains also textured BG -
which is not used in example level because it just looks awful.
Plus, Dopefish image has used pure black color (0,0,0) which Jazz uses as
invisible. Thus, Dopefish hasn’t anything black.
Pros: It’s not that bad.
Cons: WAAAAAY too many problems. Rating: 2

OVERALL : This tileset is helluva rushed job, with offers awful palette
edits, besides Jazz. I have no idea
how someone can use it, as it’s simply
unfinished. My tips are to read stuff at www.jazz2online.com/tilesets (I doubt you were there already)

Rating : 1.5

EDIT : YAY ^.[This review has been edited by Cooba]

ill review this just u watch, seeing as i told nim how to use MCEs.

;) here is review i said i would write, ok here goes:

Eyecandy: The Eyecandy is the normal one i think, but it isn’t exceptional or bad or excellent or anything it is just the original eyecandy for the tilesets, however there were some extra effects added to them (+1) which uppens my rating. There were a few bugs on the 1st and 2nd lvl.The eyecandy is above average here, not fantastic, just close to that though. Gameplay: I hate Lori so i won’t even talk about how that is, It is cool how there are places with water, and you get hurt if you stay in. I really like that. But it is sometimes annoying to go through the little passageways you can’t see, this sort of makes this a pack that will take a while to do… i kind of like that. It is annoying how most of the parts in the 3rd and 4th lvl are little passageways. This is great though. The MCEs are cool, well what you did was cool. And the boss was funny. Placement: The placement was good, but it kind of messes up a bit, loads of ammo, then gems, then back to ammo, and then hardly any food…. it goes on, but the placement was good, the pickups were in convienient places, which is good. This is a decent pack, which i think deserves a 7.5, i may be overrating, but it is my opinion.

Yep. I love chrysillis and all it’s remixes. But this is a nice one. And it’s even .s3m so you can use it for jazz. This rocks. The tunes are very nice and it’s a nice song at all. Quite well done job.

Good work, the best hotel i ever played. Nice tileset, i realy like you food factory idea. i think i played all hotel levels but this one is the best il give it 7.

Whell, ok, there is a little strange thing: in food factory you must fry the milk but still try this level i recomend it!!!!!!!!!![This review has been edited by DoomsdayMan]

It is a really nice hotel, with many games you can play and a nice restaurant. Its one of the best hotels i’ve ever seen. The test is very hard but its a lot nicer than the easy tests from others. Also, you see that, to make this hotel, you will need very much time, so thanx wadledee to make so nicely level

Ah, very interesting.

I never played Duke Nukem 2 so I cannot say whether or not I spot any missing/inaccurate tiles. So, I will just explain what the set looks like.

This is a very dark, almost entirely monochrome, set. There is not a whole lot in the area of eyecandy, but the example level proves you can make a fairly decent level with this set, though it won’t blow you away. The grow is black with some metallic grey siding that fades into blackness. There are various green sewer-like contraptions, including some dripping sewage that can hurt you as demonstrated in the level. There are a number of animations, including a lot of computer-like ones. My only complaint about those is that each set appears many times in its entirety when only half of it involves the animation at all. There are various treasue chests, electric bolts, odd contraptions, blood stains, pipes, jail bars, cameras, etc.

In the example level (which was nothing amazing like he said, but hey, it’s an example level, who cares), Lark shows the tilesets capabilities, which basically summed up are described as “dark and monotonous”.

The 50% version is certainly more ‘crisp’, but the contrast between the white and black on many of the tiles being so close together is rather annoying to look out. The game was designed to be seen 2×2 pixels anyway. I won’t take off points for that.

All in all, this tileset isn’t that pleasing to the eye, but it has enough in it to make a fairly interesting, if not monotonous, level. I give Lark a 7.2 for this work. Good job all around.

Why didn´t fat reuploaded his tileset instead of you uploading a new one??

First of all, always always always include an example level. Playing one beats looking at the tileset in JCS any day. But, onto the review.

This tileset is… odd. While what there is of it is a lot better drawn than I expected (except for what I presume is the background, that is horrible), there just isn’t enough of it. It lacks almost every needed tile, except for ground. And the ground that does exist is just made of blocks. I can’t really tell how you can make a level from this, going back to the start of this review. So, I am not going to give this a rating. Maybe you could attach that ‘level you hosted a while ago’ Olsen mentioned as an example level. That would help me lots.

Please avoid inciting flaming, Cazz. Your post was not edited, but people are open to their opinions. You have not really added much, which is why they said this. And I do not understand the reference to Reagan; it may be wise to avoid saying this sort of thing as it might offend some people of conservative politics.

This is NOT a mod. This just replaces music, and adds fairly useless content to JCS. It’s an interesting effort, but not good. I’m sorry, but that is my opinion as a reviewer.

Mods can not be created without a source code. This isn’t a mod.

This reminds me of “Project XS” ( i don’t remember the name correctly, but its something like that) announced in the JCF, which changed version number, and you weren’t cabable of banning people from a server,because author removed banning and kicking strings. i think this will be deleted soon, but im not sure. ;P

ok! i was a little rough! ;) Well, i know that a mod for jazz cant be that complex! but its good at is it! keep it up! [This review has been edited by olsen]

You know, I’m really beginning to think I might be somewhat related to Ronald Regan…The people who like me really really really like me, but those who don’t loathe my very being. I feel like there is prejudice here…against ONE of my traits…Maybe it’s the fact I’m making something NEW and it upsets you somehow?? Because every time I upload something everyone goes bananas in a flaming rage. (BTW-There’s only two bugs, Mr. Smarty-Pants) This is without doubt the ONLY JJ2 mod…And for your information, the next one will allow you to create and use BIGGER tilesets…Everyone always takes note of the flaws…Instead of “Hey, a mod for JJ2! Work on the bugs a little but good job none the less!” I get “ha ha what a peice of junk” You people disgust me.

Wow. You included two music files, edited the JCS.ini file a bit, and changed the version number even though nothing in JJ2 itself is changed. YOU’RE WINNER!!!!

Mods usually include brand new environments, new guns, new enemies (Schwarzenguard in JJ2 style… yum!), and, of course, new levels. None of them are here. And I don’t want to backup tons of files only for bugful mod which includes only new music, new JCS.ini. At least listservers aren’t shown separately.

EDIT : Wait, Violet uses old account?[This review has been edited by Cooba]
