Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

Conversions from first person shooters never come out good because one wall tile from that game takes about 8 – 10 on JJ2, so you have to align everything PERFECTLY. It’s no different with this. I won’t rate it because you didn’t even make it a .j2t, there is no mask, and nothing to do but look at a .bmp. I’ll rate if after you make a mask and create a .j2t.

Argh this sucks, whee yay.

Okay, now that I’ve got that out of my system, on with the review.

Okay, an UT2K3 tileset by Bunnyelmer. First of all, I have to agree with Lab Rat Kid, that making conversions from a 3D game is generally a bad idea, since I haven’t seen a single good conversion from a 3D game. Second of all, I don’t have UT2K3, so I’m not really able to compare it with the tileset. But alright, here goes.

COLORS:
Most of the tiles look sort of low-quality, and the entire tileset has pretty boring colors; its mostly light brownish. The colors of the background look especialy messy. Not much more to say here.
Pros: None that I can think of.
Cons: Boring, some messy colors.
Rating: 1/5

MASKING:
None to speak of, the entire tileset is auto-masked. NEVER, NEVER auto-mask a tileset.
Pros: once more, none that I noticed.
Cons: Auto-mask. Whee argh.
Rating: 0/5

EXTRA TILES:
Apart from some animated warp thingy that reminds me of MEZ03, a few letters and numbers, some rain and some Level/Tileset by Bunnyelmer thingy, none to speak of. Slopes have been added, though.
Pros: Slopes!
Cons: No vines, destruct blocks, poles, etc.
Rating: 1.2/5

APEARENCE:
This apears to be some sort of Egyptian tomb or temple, with wall painting and the regular stuff. The brick tiles look decent, and so do the painting things. Sadly, I’m afraid that if you’re going to use anything apart from the (pretty ugly) sky background it’s going to be hard to tell the background from the foreground. Also, the sky background doesn’t fit together properly unless you flip it, same goes for the palmtree that, I’m asuming, is ment for layer 5/6/7.
Pros: Most of it looks average/slightly below average.
Cons: The entire thing isn’t exactly gorgeous, and some tiles look rather ugly.
Rating: 2/5

USERFRIENDLINESS:
This tileset seems easy enough to use. Thats for the most part because there’s not much to use, though. ‘Nuff said.
Pros: Easy enough to use.
Cons: None, really.
Rating: 4/5

SIMULARITY TO ORIGINAL GAME:
Can’t say, don’t have it.
Pros: N/A
Cons: N/A
Rating: N/A

OVERALL:
Overall this is a below average conversion. It looks somewhat ugly and dull (though that could partly be blamed on the game it came from… I wouldn’t know), its auto-masked(!!!1111), and has litle to no usefull added tiles.
Pros: Nothing in particular.
Cons: Nice for keeping one amused on a (very) rainy afternoon.

FINAL RATING: 3.0 (rounded)

DOWNLOAD THIS?: Um. No.

Yesi t is what Cell sat, its must be have much more tiles!

Yikes, this is kinda scary.

Good Stuff:
- detailed in the copied parts
- pretty easy to use what’s there

Bad Stuff:
- a few misaligned pieces in the top blocks
- colors are extremely limited (browns)
- palette doesn’t match very well (if you want to use that much brown, choose more brown tones/shades/tints in your palette)
- extremely incomplete (vines, hurt, warps, etc…)
- accidentally clear parts (check inclines)
- auto-masking isn’t really a good idea

Sorry, dude, but you should look at a few others and take your time to make a nice set.

Very well, were should i start……..

This seems to be an a conversion from a first person shooter game,and i really agree with the other reviews: making an a 3d game conversion is idea what really sucks.but now i have spoken enough.its time to the review.

Tiles:
Very well, there are many “block” tiles, which got good graphic, but those are not drawen by yours.and i wanna say, that you can`t create an a good hotel level with this , so those letters are useless.
Rating:hmmm…3.0

Masking:very well, there is no much saying about masking, because this tileset uses auto mask(at least i think it uses.)and auto masks are so, so stupid idea.

Rating:no rating because of auto mask.
i never rate them.

Overall:
Hmmm………….
its hard to rate this, but i wanna say, that the tileset is not hard to use, and its not hard also, to make an a levels with it.
Rating:3.5

Final rating:3.2

Good luck to your next tilesets!

Bah…………. i cant rayte this!
