[n00b]

I'm working on a level thats built specifically for a 320x200 display. It's like a Campy B-movie, like those old '50s sci-fi flicks. I expect it will get a 5, maybe a 6 when released.

Amazing eyecandy :D

@N00b. Those screenies look nice.

[Xobim]

W00T!
Looks like I got a lot of work to do to get my levels at least as good as those... :)

[Speeza]

nice levels so far guys there all prety amazing best so far i think is coobs anyone else agree anyway keep posting in and sharing more of your levels with us

[ThunderPX]

Maybe you should stop making run-on sentences and use commas and periods because if you don't use commas and periods then sentences can be really annoying to read as you can see in this sentence which also doesn't use any commas or periods as an example.

Aaanyway, my levels are pretty generic and crappy. =(

[Stijn]

I do not want to sound jealous, but why are you all so fond about Cooba's screenshots? As far as I can see they don't show very good-looking eyecandy (it surely looks okay, but it's nothing "special") and to be honest I think n00b's level looks better.

[CrimiClown]

Well, you see, Cooba pays us to like his level.

[Stijn]

And I was secretly hoping for tips on how to improve my level :(

[CrimiClown]

Well, does it need improvement? I think it looks quite awesome. Cooba just used a tileset I never saw before and I like that tileset. I wasn't intending to make you sad... :(

[Stijn]

:(:(:(

[D4shRed]

Lol, I don't really think the first screenie Cooba posted is anything special. Second is nice, but I like Stijn's better. Anyone like my fish? PLZ?

[n00b]

I think n00b's level looks better.
Thanks.

Anyways, it may sound like I'm paying Stijn back, but I'm not:
I like Stijn's best.

[Fawriel]

Yeah.. Stijn's looks pretty awesome..

<s>n00b why you dont use mine l33t trees in background =(</s>

[White Rabbit]

In space, forest camouflage is not needed.

[Violet CLM]

That looks cool, n00b. I hope it plays well.

[Stijn]

Ooooh, Captain Claw. It was about time it got used for something :P

[CrimiClown]

Another tileset I don't know?! What's going on? *runs*

[Radium]

@UR: The process of making something more gone. Removing, I guess.

You used the Claw tileset with the grainy error diffusion );

[Violet CLM]

I might rerip all the graphics later and make a new tileset with the same tile order and better quality... we'll see. This is fine for just working in.

[Stijn]

enjoy the lack of events

[n00b]

Replayed my level a while ago, and now I expect it to get a lower rating than what I posted earlier. All four screenshots happen so early on, it's shocking.
Level Demo thing (http://www.yourfilelink.com/get.php?fid=1638)
Feel free to C&C.
EDIT- All of the screenshots are from a month or two ago, I was originally working on the level with a 'bootleg' Kansas tileset. Also the Kansas tileset is not included in the ZIP. Go download it off of J2O if for some reason you don't have it.
EDIT2- And play the level in 320x200, there hasn't been any ambeint lights added, so it doesn't matter what other settings you use.

[Fawriel]

Both tilesets are pretty overused in my opinion, Blacky. D=
..but you still managed to make them at least look different from what they usually look like. That's good.

[Radium]

I might rerip all the graphics later and make a new tileset with the same tile order and better quality... we'll see. This is fine for just working in.Just put the tiles in the editor and take a screenshot or two; it's a lot easier to get them that way. I have the battlements one somewhere on my old harddrive...

[Violet CLM]

That would work, too, but I only have the demo and I don't see an editor in it.

Overused sets are good faw, that's why they're overused.

[FireSworD]

That's not entirely true. Mez01 is overused because it's so easy to use, not because it's good.

[n00b]

I guess I'm the only one who finds Mez01 hard to use.

[Speeza]

i think unknownfiles is the best at the moment but d4s level looks cool and wacky so il proberly would download them still got some cool screenshots well done guys

[cooba]

i think unknownfiles is the best at the momentUnknown Rabbit = Violet CLM != Unknownfile :(

More overused tilesets. D=

( In my opinion, overusage automatically decreases the goodness of a tileset... I just like to see new things, I suppose.
Of course, it's not the tileset's fault. So I guess it's more of a deficit in originality of the leveldesign.. oh well. )

[Sacrush]

( In my opinion, overusage automatically decreases the goodness of a tileset... I just like to see new things, I suppose. )

Just some levels that uses those tilesets, but the episode will contain way more tilesets though. :)

[Ðx]

Yeah but that episode is dead, as you said. The last time you worked on it was around may 2005.

[DoubleGJ]

Latest stuff from Devil Dash to show you that it's still not dead:

[White Rabbit]

:O I love the train and the carriages. Show more.

[DoubleGJ]

Well the truth is, I can't, since this level is actually a cutscene. I took the screenshot a moment before the talking begins.

[Fawriel]

Dude! If the gameplay is as good as the looks, that will be a darn awesome episode.

[R3ptile]

http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/5554/someddscreenie11kf.jpg

[Xobim]

Yes, very cool layer usage!

[cooba]

Yes, very cool layer usage!Actually, if my memory serves me well, it's all on layer 3 and 4. :)

[Xobim]

So you're using unmasked tiles. The idea comes out very good, I must say.

[White Rabbit]

Well the truth is, I can't, since this level is actually a cutscene. I took the screenshot a moment before the talking begins.
You made the train tileset for a cutscene!? >o You chases? No jumping between wagons? <s>No dropping right next to a lion and scaring it away by using a whip for the first time in your life?</s>

[DoubleGJ]

It's GOING TO be used for a normal level...

[Speeza]

best leval ever try top that any way keep sending in leavels

[Violet CLM]

DoubleGJ: Ah, cool. The first screenshot is one of those things I've always wondered if I should try something similar to and then never got around to. It's a little cartoony, but the concept looks sound.
(Maybe no tiled floor for the elevator... set it apart somehow.)

[Odin]

http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/5554/someddscreenie11kf.jpg

Holy crap that is awesome I am in love

[Stijn]

The perspective of the stairs isn't really right... the top of the fence in the background should not be right in line with the top of the fence in the foreground.

Awesome idea, though.

[Fawriel]

When someone criticizes your level like it was a painting, you know it looks good.

[Stijn]

Heh :D

[NovaStar]

I guess I'm the only one who finds Mez01 hard to use.
*puts hand on shoulder*
You are not alone. *coughmecough*

But I find everything hard to use. :o

[NovaStar]

In other news, I have screenies of a battle duo I may create! :D
And sadly, no, I will not do a Survivor pack...sorry!

Hey, and I congraduate LMAT for making good 16 bit backgrounds. Go you!

[Violet CLM]

You just said in at least two other places that you <i>were</i> doing a survivor pack. I will never be able to trust you again.

[NovaStar]

Well, I changed my mind. It's too hard. ;p
And I said may this time, I'm not too sure.
And name the two. I said one place, and that was the LMAT upload, right?

[R3ptile]

nothing special, coob, really

[cooba]

*officially sucks at making interesting screenshots*

[Fawriel]

The first one of those looks neat.
The other.. doesn't, really.
It's hard to make interesting screenshots of a level with such an unspectacular tileset. ;o

[Black Ninja]

I've got a couple things coming up.

One of them is Too Races. More info on that later.

The other is only one single-player level. I can't give out any info yet, but I think it will be very popular if I execute it properly. I <b>WILL</b> say that it involves Fooruman.

[Ðx]

I'm just working on Jazz X ( i will post screens tomarrow or today )

[CrimiClown]

I WILL say that it involves Fooruman.
Like we couldn't guess... =P

Pageclaim

[Sonyk]

Not every level made by Black Ninja has Fooruman, you know.

I know what they are, anyway. *happy-joy*

[White Rabbit]

Too Races? What a name... :p

[Ðx]

I just found another old screen from Jazz X my JJ2 website ( wich is currently dead ;D )

http://img229.imageshack.us/img229/2503/jazzxoldscreen59yb.png (http://imageshack.us)

This was suppose to be the Lava Tempel in the Episode. Don't worry i'm making a new one.

[Fawriel]

..you'd better.
That tileset burns in the eyes.

[White Rabbit]

I can't even see Jazz. ;)

I know, he is stuck in the wall ( where he belongs ) Shall i post some screens from the new Jazz X???

[cooba]

http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/1749/8to168eh.png

And as we all know, light backgrounds fading to dark colors look bad.

[Ðx]

Alright, thanks :)

[CrimiClown]

16-bit also gives you the opportunity to make your own fading color. And, Cooba, try a dark textured background in 16-bit with background colors R255 B255 G255. It looks quite neat. I used it in my DSX episode. ;)

[cooba]

And, Cooba, try a dark textured background in 16-bit with background colors R255 B255 G255.I was talking about the opposite of what you had in mind, actually.

[CrimiClown]

Oh, sorry. I'm not entirely awake, I misread that.

And, yeah, light backgrounds fading to dark don't look too spectacular. At least in some cases.

You don't have high standards, I just need to spend some more time into this level and the following ones.

And there isn't a storyline this time. You just crashed somewhere in a big forest somewhere on Carottus and you have to find your way out. You stumble across a secret temple complex and there you find a few things out about this place.

(See Penguin Hotel and Christmas Disco for my levels)

PAGECLAIM

[Xobim]

I'm working on a new level, I stopped the other project with the connected levels. My new idea is a level with a scary atmosphere.

And I'm still waiting for n00b to betatest that episode I gave him 5 months ago...

[Booman]

Here are some screen shots from my coming single player pack:

The level in the second screenshot could use more tile variety and less blue tubes. Everything else, though, looks neat. Good job so far.

[Booman]

Oh no, I took the wrong image :P this one should have been instead of the second one:

These are screenshots of my next level, which is for the contest. They were made in Single Player.

[minmay]

Wow, that looks like something I would have made in '01.

[cooba]

Wow, that looks like something I would have made in '01.DS' level looks way better than any level you've made in 2005, so... :)

[Sacrush]

When I see all those new levels coming up, I fell like making one too. ;)

[minmay]

DS' level looks way better than any level you've made in 2005, so... :)

You're not counting the various unfinished ones lying around then.
<img src=http://img134.imageshack.us/img134/9414/neverfinished4yz.png>

Be extra nice and maybe I'll finish that one (and maybe tone down the amount of ammo too).

[cooba]

<img src="http://img134.imageshack.us/img134/9414/neverfinished4yz.png" height="240" width="320">Too much eyecandy is as bad no eyecandy at all, btw.

[minmay]

I myself find too much eyecandy better.

Imageshack is down, so I can't post a sarcastic image D=

[Blackraptor]

Actually, I'm disagreeing with Cooba here. Defosts screenshot > DS's sorry :(.
Because if a level has barely any eyecandy it would be too boring for me to play in, but if a level has too much I would still play in it because there's a lot to look at and keep you busy, but I just wouldn't have serious matches in it.

No offense intended to either of you, I'm sure your levels will turn out good when finished :).

[Stijn]

You're not counting the various unfinished ones lying around then.
[screenshot]

Be extra nice and maybe I'll finish that one (and maybe tone down the amount of ammo too).
Looks awesome. Nice to see that tileset used.

And Cooba, I have to disagree too, it looks way better than that level by DarkSonic. It doesn't say much about the gameplay though, ofcoruse.

[R3ptile]

Too much eyecandy is as bad no eyecandy at all, btw.
Except way worse.

[cooba]

........and where did I say that DS's level is better than Defost's ISLANDS one? They're equally unpleasant in my opinion. But then again Stijn you're one of those people who assume that <a href="http://www.jazz2online.com/jcf/showpost.php?p=334633&postcount=12">excessively clobbered layers</a> mean good eyecandy so I don't know why am I even arguing with you :7

[DarkSonic]

Well, the level is a bit rushed.. it's not completely done yet, although I'm really far with it. The tileset doesn't offer alot of eye candy except some trees and caves, and slopes to use in the foreground. While I look at the screenshot, I find some bugs in them. But it will be fixed as soon as possible. And that Islands level looks good in my opinion.

[Violet CLM]

How about this: both levels have eyecandy that will not appeal to certain groups of people, although some people might be more willing to tolerate that of one level than that of the other, and some other people might even like the eyecandy of one or both of them. For maximum approval, however, it might be wisest to make levels with eyecandy at sufficient but not excessive levels.

[Stijn]

........and where did I say that DS's level is better than Defost's ISLANDS one?
DS' level looks way better than any level you've made in 2005, so...
Assuming Defost's was made in 2005, which he was indicating by saying that thing about the unreleased levels.
Or do you mean gameplay? In that case, where did I say that the gameplay of one of the levels was better than that of the other?

[cooba]

When I said "anything you've made in 2005" I obviously meant anything I have seen him make in 2005. Why would I judge unreleased levels (which I had no idea even existed)?For maximum approval, however, it might be wisest to make levels with eyecandy at sufficient but not excessive levels.My thoughts exactly.

[Stijn]

I tend to take things literally when I feel like it :7

[Anubis]

I'm too lazy to make levels right now but I might soon

[DarkSonic]

The level will be uploaded soon so then you can play the level.

[minmay]

Well, to say the truth: I'm incapable of not overworking the eyecandy in my levels. There.

[R3ptile]

Is it just me, or your level is very linear, DS?

[niek]

Hmm, from what I can see in your screenshots, the level looks pretty good. And you've choosen a good tileset. Blade rocks!

[Ðx]

Can't wait!:D

[DarkSonic]

Well, the level isn't that linear. There are enough paths to the bases and such. I'll upload the level today or tomorrow.

[snzspeed]

[R3ptile]

It's Distopia!

[minmay]

Everything made with that tileset looks like a Distopia clone ;(

Looks good, though. I don't, however, like the placement of the scratches.

[snzspeed]

It's Distopia!

nope. :(

[DarkSonic]

Well, not every level with that tileset.. not going to give an example though. Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing all these levels for the contest I haven't seen yet. And let's hope everyone can finish them before the deadline.

[minmay]

<img src=http://img519.imageshack.us/img519/1999/thankfullywillbefinished6gm.png>

In an attempt to make Cooba happy, I'm making an overly generic level.

EDIT: Oh, yeah, and a semi-generic level that I'm not sure I'll finish or not since it's going in the wrong direction now.

XLM Woods - Far East has been released

[Chiyu]

A quest level together with Dx, and a solo project.. Will be released in June :)

[cooba]

A screenshot may be worth a thousand of words, but a <a href="http://www.freewebs.com/awholelotofjunk/ictribsample.j2l">sample</a> is worth millions of screenshots.

For what it's worth, the actual level will be a JTF (CTF with player classes) featuring a Medic class, which is able to heal teammates. Both Medics and the eyecandy were ideas I've had in my mind since August 2005, and this level finally ties them both in one level. The layout so far is 60% done, it's rather simple and flattish, but open and suitable for more people than it seems in JCS.

Also, Defost, my eyecandy with the Exoticus tileset was not overly generic and it still was (at least in my and several people's opinion) better.

[CrimiClown]

Well, to say the truth: I'm incapable of not overworking the eyecandy in my levels. There.
I remember you saying you were good at making awesome small area's and then making the rest of the level suck, though... ;)

[minmay]

Also, Defost, my eyecandy with the Exoticus tileset was not overly generic and it still was (at least in my and several people's opinion) better.

I do sort of dislike the eyecandy in my Exoticus level (okay, so it flat out stinks) but I see nothing special in yours.

And, I'm soon going to upload the overly generic level and watch everyone flame it for its small size.

[cooba]

DS' level officially owns.

OWNS.

[minmay]

My generic level which I officially just uploaded officially SUCKS.

Well, maybe not. Someone rate it so that I know.

[R3ptile]

It's too small and has limited gameplay too be rated properly

[cooba]

It's not that bad, and I like the eyecandy there better than in the Islands thing.

And just so my humble sample doesn't go unnoticed:A screenshot may be worth a thousand of words, but a <a href="http://www.freewebs.com/awholelotofjunk/ictribsample.j2l">sample</a> is worth millions of screenshots.

In my experience, generic levels have poor gameplay. Well, the ones I've played.

@Cooba: Well, it's okay. Seems a little generic, though.

I'm overusing the word "generic" today.

[minmay]

Wow, I'm amazed. So far, people actually like Generic Battle Level!

[minmay]

I find most every level I come across overly generic looking. And if all you want is "omb this rox ur incredible," just say so. Considering that you called it "humble" yourself, I didn't expect you to expect really positive feedback.

I like it that way, it looks like a morning on the Diamdusts...

[Birdie]

http://img230.imageshack.us/img230/5393/xlmgar0dd.png
Spiffy.

[Violet CLM]

It's not bad, but it's severely limited by being Diamondus and thus kind of flat. The level would look a lot better if you could find some way to introduce curves.

Download it

Dunno how much sense it makes to release screenshots at this stage, but whatever.

[Strato]

Are you remaking levels from that game?

[Violet CLM]

Remaking? There's not room for new episodes, so everything has to be overwriting old levels, if that's what you mean.

[Strato]

Huh? I meant making the levels from that game into jj2 ones. Anyway, here is a pictorium of my up and coming level. It's the greatest =D

Looks cool. Although I see a lack of jazz.
Would it happen to be a custom j2a?

[n00b]

Explain the lack of Hud, then.

[Birdie]

<!---->

[n00b]

You can't change the hud with a custom J2a, and no mass amount of triggers can make a custom health system.

[Birdie]

You can't change the hud with a custom J2a, and no mass amount of triggers can make a custom health system.
Hud could be one big sprite, and for the health I have no clue! =D
EDIT:
found out a way the health could work, all the letter sprites could be replaced, and a program edits the text memory to display health in that spot, and the asm that makes text move gets nop'd!

[n00b]

EDIT- Or it could just be made with what I think was a Hocus Pocus Level Editor violet made a while back.

[Violet CLM]

It's hardly past-tense, but yeah. Much experimentation and whatnot have finally gotten me to the point where most features of the levels can successfully be edited. :D

[Naw.]

How I can make my own levels? (a little bit off topic) :P

[CrimiClown]

How I can make my own levels? (a little bit off topic) :P
Oh my... INTENSIVE CARE, NOW! THIS PATIENT IS LOSING IT!

[n00b]

How I can make my own levels? (a little bit off topic) :P
If this was some other game like Gish, or JJ1, I'd happily explain it to you, But JJ2?
The Level editor is right in the start menu directory for christsakes! Plus it doesn't even take a brain surgeon to figure out how to lay the tiles in Coherent structures.

I have no idea. It's unfinished at the moment.

[R3ptile]

don't post screenies if it isn't gonna be uploaded to j2o

[Valco]

How do you take screenshots?:confused:

[MSB3000]

F12 or Print Screen.

UF, could it be that that is made with JSD? =O

[cooba]

UF, could it be that that is made with JSD? =O...I think it's been stated thrice that this is a Hocus Pocus mod, not JJ2...

[n00b]

Even if it was made in JSD, There is NO way that JJ2 would show the health as numbers. It only uses one heart sprite, and if we could change that, well, we'd have JJ2 mods off the wazoo.

Not only that, but NO airborne enemy in jj2 shoots projectiles.
