It's not like fixing the problem would be much of a big deal anyway. If he moves the trees a bit to either side we can stop debating over this.

I totally agree. While it could be irrelevant in big communities where the average standards of levels are lower, the stated quote is definitely is true for JJ2. My experience from WC3 mapping e.g. is that i spend a huge amount of time on improving details which, when ultimately playing online, noone really notices or even cares (nor would they if they were missing). But in the mapping community, they do notice and they do appreciate all that small work. And well, basically, the JJ2 community is a big levelmaking community because many people, or rather, a high percentage of the community, have a fair amount of experience with levelmaking. And they'll pay attention to such things. So heed n00b's warning!

Remember: Your job, as a level designer, is to immerse the player in a world you create. As soon as the player notices something out of place, no matter how small it is, the illusion is broken.

Those blocks are too bright to be used in the background.

Speaking of the background, the mountains ring a bell ;|

Smile A Little Update on Emerald Forest :)

Hi y'all. It's me, Jimbob, again. Just letting you guys know that I am making progress (slowly, but surely) on Emerald Forest. I now have the layout complete, and I am adding in some more eyecandy.

TILEBUGZ !

Besides that little problem in the background, it's looking quite nice.

And I was the one who was watching while he made that. It was really fun.

About the level: it took us longer to make than we expected at first, maybe that's because we put more time into the eye candy than planned. We had some funny ideas (like the TNT in the tree) and I think we both did as much. The idea of starting with a weapon was made up by Crimiclown. We didn't know that the platform lift didn't work in Multiplayer, but we found that out when we first hosted the level. I did most of the eye candy, but Crimiclown helped me a bit with finding the right tiles and such. He also made most of the background and the ammo placement. Anyway, have fun with the level!

Another update ;-)))

About Emerald Forest: As you can see, here I am at the red base.

(The music is (still) aws_cave.xm.)
As you can also see, I made an evening version of this level as a bonus for people who hate the darkness in the other version:

(The music here has been changed to mikko56.s3m.)
EDIT: Private message me if you want to test the level so far. Eyecandy and ammo placement is not complete, however the layout is complete.

Bouncers.

Unless the fish respawn, then just take the damage and run out of there before you're damaged again. Unless there are INVISIBLE WALLS around it.

I think that screenshot looks interesting. If there is a good story involved, this is really something to look forward to.

Also, is this just one level or an entire pack?
