Mods general discussion

That's pretty good.

I thoroughly enjoyed.

I might suggest changing the lighting to NPC's, and I might be able do that for you if you ask here depending on the complexity of it..

You know...making them NPC's might solve most of the problem, since actually making the lights change the way they do is a bitch right now.
If the light entities were NPC's, then I might not be so against finishing the mod, since a few <CNP events would change all the lights...

And I wouldn't have to have this mess...

(And that's for a single, INCOMPLETE entity that needs twice that amount of code.)

So I'll make a request in the thread, after I figure out just what kind of NPC's I need.

 

I'm not sure if I this is the right place to ask or if I should start a new thread, but would anyone be willing to make a sprite or two for me?

What I need is a sprite of a Gaudi jumping, and throwing projectiles. Basically I want it to act like a droll. Anyone willing to help? You will be fully credited.

 

I think this is actually the right place to go this time:

Okay, thank you!
Hey, does anyone know the ANP commands for a Gaudi? Searching for them brought up absolutely nothing, and the list provided in Noxid's beginner modding guide doesn't include them.
Nevermind. I've decided to go with a droll, because a) it means less work for me and b) I want this character to stand out from the normal enemies.

 

Since this thread is never used

I played OFF recently and made a test mod using its tileset and stuff to see how it'd look

I didn't think this would really fit in the SS dev thread so I'll post it here.


Here's a trailer of the final boss for Red Static:

wow mang dat boss is epic!!!11

On a serious note, how many people have --successfully-- made a custom boss in a Cave Story mod with a custom AI instead of fitting it to another boss's AI? It seems like a really intricate and difficult task. ;A;

It's a work in progress.

I think Noxid's assault mech counts as a custom boss.

 

also like every boss in wtf

 

well, not the green blargo
or the furnace boss which was just basically chaba's NPC with some scripting afaik
and the blocky fight was just a misery reskin

 

sorry, half the bosses in wtf

 

here's something a little more real.

 

original thread was closed and im not sure where to post this thread, but the mod discussion subforum seems to be more about technical stuff so im putting it here. a cursory search of the thread did not give me my answers

im playing this mod: http://www.cavestory.org/forums/threads/2839/

I have the machine gun and unupgraded missles (did not talk to misery on purpose)

1. how come when i go to grasstown to get the bomb, there is a star trinket or something in the chest instead
2. when i try to get the sky blade it just says 'go away'
3. when i trade in my four mirrior fragments to the gunsmith, i get a mirror instead of polaris. how do i get polaris

am i doing something wrong? i did everything the guide said to do up to where the guide ends.

 

You may wanna change the title of the thread, because jenkem is fermented poop that kids get high off of.

 

JNR is dumb anyway stop playing it.

The guide is defunct and should not be trusted.

There is no explosive.

The sky blade no longer exists, but keep talking to the statue, you can still get something from it if you ask enough times.

The Polaris is found in the Red Tower I think. That or it was taken out, I can't quite remember.

 

Oh hey sinophile, you've been gone longer than I've been around.

the mod discussion subforum seems to be more about technical stuff so im putting it here.

I'd say it would have actually been better to have posted this in the modding general discussion forum than here, but ultimately the best place to have posted this would have been here (I suspect DT will move it soon):

I don't disagree with you on the mod's quality, but whether or not sinophile wants to play it is their decision.

You get it in the red tower. SPOILER ALERT:

You need to have a life pot with you so that you can save Curly with it after you defeat her in her possessed state, then she'll give you the Polaris.

 

protip: JNR really will not give you a good experience, if you want to enjoy playing JN I'd suggest checking out zarrotsu's version

 

Duke Jenkem, blasting aliens' faces in since 2006.

 

(I suspect DT will move it soon):

I've been hesitating on moving these because people might think their threads have been deleted but I've just realised that if they can't post in the obviously right section I don't care very much

Allow me to be the first to say, no, you didn't do anything wrong. Everything you posted was functioning intentionally in that version.

Allow me to be the second to say, however, that that version of Jenka's Nightmare is not the latest one. The most recent version can be found { here }, and has the consequence of, unfortunately, having to start the game from the beginning again due to the map order and practically all of the event flags having changed. Moreover, the guide you're using will become obsolete, but the website I linked will eventually contain updated information.

The version you linked is full of bugs (some game-breaking), and a lot of misleading information. I'd understand not wanting to start over again, but I know from personal experience that that version of the game cannot be completed under certain circumstances, due to broken flag-jumps and what I assume were leftover debugging events.
