The previous page had almost no screenshots. And that's what this topic is for. Not for talking about how good the level names are. I'll post some screenshots soon.

Even though screenshots can do this level no justice (the lightning effect is too awesome to capture D=), I'm posting some.

edit: me edits for R3p

This level will probably be released as a single level before I upload my levelpack 'Serious Emergencies'. I still need to finish one level of that pack because I wasn't too proud of a Battle level from that pack.

Looks nice, although the blue in the background of the second screenshot clashes with the 'desert-yellow'. I suggest you try a little bit of a brighter blue. RGB 128, 233, 255 would work, in my opinion. At least, I can't really tell, but I guess it's the textured background fade colour.

Mine are getting ignored again D=

Kay. :p
What gametype is the level in your screenshots?

I sense foreground translucency D;

Oooo, retro. That's a cool tileset, what is it of? It looks like it was ripped from some SNES game..

Xargon.

New screen from great level!

I was plannig to show u another image but imageshack doesnt want to, so just enjoy this one. ;)

Edit:Here is the second screen.

Don't worry, it's done in a way that doesn't obstruct gameplay. In fact, if you really want...http://reupload.com/uploads/reallyrandom.j2l. Of course, it's extremely unfinished.

(Reupload dislikes hotlinks. Blame Reupload for the un-pretty link.)

The name for P4ul's level is fine, it's this arguement about it going on that's the sad thing imo.

and yeah, my post is a page late but who cares \o/.

I'm currently making a new Level Pack for JJ2. I will call it "Super Jazz Brothers 3."
This will probably take MONTHS! Tileset I am using is "SMB3: Grass land."
It's gonna be like the classic Mario games. It will have LOADS of levels. I think about 30 or maybe even 40+ levels.
No screenshots right now.

Remember, level quality has a higher priority than the amount of levels... ;)

The thread isn't about screenshots, it's about sharing levels you're working on. Screenshots are just the most common way of sharing levels, not the topic's main purpose.

thousand years later :P

Waste of post, second time. You should be ashamed.

Anyway, I'm making an SP pack. It involves collecting treasures from deceased Pearoah's Pyramids, and is set in Carro, Eargyt.

Working on a project for online play.

Releasing a 14 levels big Street Fight pack today.

Will probably upload something this holiday...

I've been at the level-making game on and off for several years now, ever since the game came out in '98. As such, I still refuse to use the new tilesets. Here's the level I am working on (obviously needs some eyecandy work) which I'd say is 20% complete. I'm in no hurry to finish, see?

Overused tileset :(

Is it battle?

To be honest, making the official tilesets "Forbidden" by saying that they're overused just makes them extrememly underused.

Something thats never made sense to me- So a tileset is "overused", so the (-) what?
Just because a tileset is underused doesn't make the level any better, and an 'overused' tileset doesn't make a level any worse.

They suck, that's all. The only underused one, really, is Dam Nation.

*shrugs* I dunno why it is, but I just don't find the old tilesets visually appealing anymore. I guess many of us kinda got numb to them or something.

It's not the only one. Inferno is also really underused because it's pretty hard to use. Myself I find the old tilesets really boring as well. Conversions still beat official tilesets. And about the screenshot: I dunno what to say about it, because it just shows some tubes.

Where do I say that? I'm just poking at his 'I'm not using new tilesets' thing.

Why, that's pure balderdash. The game creators intended them to be used, and by God, I'll use them for as long as I want. As far as I'm conserned, the only tileset makers you can really trust compeletely are the ones who made the game in the first place. Simply balderdash.

And like I said, it needs some work. And by "some" I mean "quite a bit", and by "quite a bit" I mean "quite a bit". Which means it's not done. And I just saw this thread so I decided to show what I was doing. And stuff...

Grr, you guys make me SO mad sometimes....!

Inferno is underused because it sucks. It just doesn't have versatility.

That's entirely true. It was a very poor choice for the last level, especially considering it was going to be used to put an end to the JJ2 storyline. I'm still crying over it... :'(

I mean the Forbidden thing -.-

That's bull. Why would you trust a game maker anyway? If it's masked good? Agama made great tilesets, and she wasn't one of the gamemakers, same for Blur.

It can't be bull, it was only an opinion. You're not a commie, are 'ya?

:|

Not really. The game has grown so apart from the game maker's original intentions. Just compare Diamondus Warzone to Distopia or Semiconductor. The fact is, the community's idea of what is good is different then the game makers. The same goes for tilesets. Tilesets are expected to have working water, snow, pinball events, the works. Plus all destruct scenery, et cetera. Eyecandy galore, transitions between ground and background. I could go on.

Official tilesets are nice, but claiming that there is no need to use player made tilesets just is over the top.

... :confused:

You mean communist? If so, I dunno.


V-- not done

Fine, you win. Just call me old-fashioned and get it over with.

I downloaded the level for this and thought the lighting effects and overall eyecandy was well done. However, there is either too much time spent in darkness or the darkness itself is.. too dark. Having to pause every couple of seconds got old rather quickly.

But nice job so far, it looks promising. Aaand I love everyone who uses my tilesets.
