Cave Story ~ The Lost Mage and Pirate

Re: I have Backness

You have a strong side in cut-scenes, Lowell. So whether you continue this mod or not, don't dismiss this fact.

 

OhgodwhathaveIdone

Work on the mod goes slow, but it goes once again.
The proverbial fan in front of my world keeps getting crap tossed on it, which I'd like to blame for slowness, but I've been pretty darn lazy myself.

Anyways, since it's been so damn long since I made the first part, I think almost a whole year now {Not counting updates}, and combined with my laziness, I wanted to know if I possibly make it up by releasing Part 2 in smaller, playable chunks, instead of one long one like Part 1.
No idea on any finishing time for either path, but the former would obviously be sooner, if shorter in playability.
Right now, I don't really care either way, I can see spots to stick cliff-hangers if I wanted to and what not, or I could keep going until I get something I feel good enough to call Part 2. Just felt bad after seeing how many people actually like this thing and I've yet to finish the next part.

So, what does everyone want?

 

I think smaller parts would be best, if just to get newer parts sooner, because I love this mod and I'd like to play new parts.

 

i'm partial to longer parts at once, gives more to play and explore until the next demo comes out

 

I'd go with longer parts too Lowell.

 

I want this to have ass hacks.

 

Check where you've used <FOM. It'll persist through <TRA and can become very nauseous if it's at too low a value. The default is 32, which does a fairly good job of smooth gameplay. If you just need to move the camera quick to the player, do a lower number first, then 32 at the end. That first long cave was... ugh... a little dizzying.

 

The default is 32,

Isn't it 16?

Is it? Guess I was mistaken then.

Still, 32 does do very smooth movement without lagging behind.

Boohoohoooooo

 

Why did you bump this

 

In what world is a month a bump?
It was even still on this page.
The real question is why he didn't contribute anything spectacular.
