Be-pfhor I even start this post I don't want to hear a single post saying use Weland or some other modern editor, I use forge, End of story. I know this has been posted before but none of those post got any satisfactory answers and are filled with basically this "USE WELAND IDIOT, WAAAAAHHH&qu...

This is applicable to shapes file textures, without using MML replacements: The shapes file uses a specific bitmap for liquids. It is important you replace that bitmap with your new texture. The alpha property of the liquid (the transparency) is controlled by the brightness of the pixels. Dark pixe...

Hi, I'm Paul. I'm new to this community (since Feb '14). I've always been a huge Marathon fan and remember spending $40 a pop to get each new game when it came out. Anyway, I am a writer by trade and love to tell stories and game…what better way to do it than Marathon? So I have created a small, 4-...

From experience the depth (or height) is not that great. Black to white ~0,050 WU . No data or anything to back it up, just my own observation.

Please hurry to figure how a bridge can be simulated with lua. Nothing is more important!

OK, just a quick question to the community: how important is it for your levels to seem realistic, like each room should exist with a specific function? I'd say it is fairly important. There need to be a context. Where is the player? A mountain, a mine, a space ship, spht ruins, pfhor space ship et...

Do you have an estimate for when you'll be releasing your maps? I'll make some Youtube videos of it once I can play it.

Another day, Destiny. I am going through a rough time since my father died.

I bow for the old man.

Good luck with your undertaking!

I tried seeing if I could port E1M1 into MI, there's literally not enough space for it horizontally. http://doomwiki.org/w/images/archive/c/c7/20110917163139!E1M1_map.png https://soulsphere.org/img/blog/doom-e1m1/E1M1-2.png Pillar in room to the left is 1x1 wu (max!). Using that as a measure, the m...

I might be. Depends on what needs to be done and what you are paying.

As far as I know, the 3D models that generated the XBLA player sprites have not been released.

I vaguely recall that un-textured walls can elevate the player if he runs into them. That could be a problem, unless the liquid is placed high enough.

I do not think that polygons have a significant influence on load times. The number of HD textures in the map seems to make up the bulk of the loading time.

For me shapes fusion would crash repeatedly, but when I switched to another folder it would suddenly work. E.g. I tried to save the exported patch in the shapes fusion folder, but it crashed shapes fusion. When I switched to A1 folder it exported without crashing.

Problems I dislike in ShapeFusion: - Why can't I add a bitmap in between other bitmaps, so that I don't have to delete and add every other bitmap? There is no need to do that. Just add your bitmaps at the end. If you for some reason need to move them around, there is copy paste. Apart from the wall...

Sound objects can have their volume controlled by a light's intensity. In this case, a light can raise the volume when the door is opened, giving the illusion the door shields the inside from the wind when it is closed. In the same manner, a sound object can be made to sound only when the door is mo...

It does not take 4 clicks. Click on a row, wait a millisecond, then click on a number. Look! Two clicks!

I agree with you. The error is with the shapes patch, because when I use a normal shapes file and inactivate the shapes patch from the plugin, the smg hi-res graphics do show up. It is strange. The frames/sequences looks ok in the patch file. Not sure what is wrong here =/ An observation: The dds fi...

Can you upload the plugin? xml, mml, marine shapes patch, marine pngs. I can troubleshoot it for you, but I need everything so I can test back and forth with A1.

Item/monster parametrers Every Second Aleph One will count the number of objects in the map and in the players inventories. If an object count is below the minimum count, the difference will be added to the level, either to random locations or to the same location as the placed objects. If the coun...

Since nothing shows up, I would double-check the plugin's xml-file, and the shapes patch included in the plugin folder. <shapes_patch file="XBLA Player.ShPa" /> After this, I would check Aleph Ones active plugins. Plugins can override each other. If there is another plugin with a shapes pa...
