Crimiclown can start, but i'm away for 5 days ;<.

So.. Can we start after the holiday?

cooba Apr 30, 2006 11:11 AM

I don't see why should we delay the starting.

I think the plotline should be about Protecting JJ2 servers and taking out crashers.

Very well then... Sounds good to me... I'll start on it first thing in the morning. \o/

Marijn May 1, 2006 11:12 AM

But we are building a episode right ? So I agree the "pick and use" style, but doesn't have to be "right"... Every level can start with "A day after yesterday..." and make a story that don't even mention things used before...

Level one: Devan Shell returns.
Level two: Earlong slaps Jazz.
Level two: Spazz and Jazz fight crime at epic to drop the redirection..

you know what i mean :D

n00b May 1, 2006 11:21 AM

Why go through the hassle of having people sign up if all the episode is going to be is dumb level after dumb level?

While I think the story should be improvised, I'd at least want it to link up with/ make sense when played with/or refered to past levels. Also it should follow a general theme so we know that Jazz, Spaz, and Lori run in certain eniroments that make sense with each other.

Long story short: This episode will 200x better if we did it with flow isntead of Pick and Use

I couldn't agree more. If you decide to make a level in this project, at least take part in the storyline... You can add plot-twists ofcourse, but make em sensible... ;P

KRSplat May 1, 2006 11:37 AM

I assume this is 1.23, not 1.24.

n00b May 1, 2006 11:41 AM

Considering DX's pure hatred of levels uploaded in 1.24, I assume the same thing

Marijn May 1, 2006 12:05 PM

So first write a story ( of course somebody that really write good... Marijn != good writer.. )

and people can "ask" to make a level.. with correspond story

snzspeed May 1, 2006 12:18 PM

if there's still space, i'd like to enter. Im bored atm, and don't have much stuff to do. ;P

I thought we were meant to improvise on the story... Like, stick with the idea, but do whatever you please... Just stay around the 'hacking' theme and it'll be okay. ;)

Just think of a thema.. We need to make a little start right. Where is jazz ? What kind of tileset..

The creator of the level would think up that. For example, if CrimiClown made the first level, and it started off with Jazz in the middle of a mission to stop a script kiddie, and ended after defeating that script kiddie and Jazz finding a portal to somewhere, the next person would think up where Jazz ended up, say, in the General Jazz Talk forum (this is only an example.)

n00b May 2, 2006 11:10 AM

Maybe Jazz will have to edit some varibles in a Mainframe nside a computer Matrix(We don't have to be Uber-realistic because that'd be boring.*). The tileset could be "Cybernetical World" by Cell, a custom tileset, or Mez. It's really up to you


*Find IP! Post it! Find another IP! Post it!

ThunderPX May 3, 2006 02:20 AM

Or we could use more than one tileset in this episode! *gasp*

I never even asserted the notion that the tileset had to be for the whole episode.
I think hacking a mainframe can be done in one level.

Sacrush May 3, 2006 12:17 PM

I still think that there should be some rules, or else this will end up like crap...

minmay May 3, 2006 01:12 PM

I'm back, and possibly in.

A good rule is DX doesn't have to accept anything unless he wants to.

minmay May 3, 2006 05:06 PM

Maybe people should be required to submit a work sample before they get in.

n00b May 4, 2006 10:52 AM

Well then it'd be called "Certain people who meet criteria Episode" and not "Community Episode".


I'd rather go with a form of Birdie's rule where if the level is crap we don't need to add it in.

minmay May 4, 2006 04:21 PM

Yeah, but it depends on exactly how bad something must be to be "crap."

I myself find that most of the uploads on J2O are "crap," especially recently. Considering most of the good level makers seem to have stopped level making (e.g. Blur, since I don't believe he's uploaded a dang thing since last year), we may end up with a "crappy" pack.

So not uploading levels to J2O automatically makes one an inactive level maker?

minmay May 5, 2006 06:30 AM

These sites keep slipping by me, so please stop making me look like an idiot.

Also, he said somewhere else that he wasn't making any more levels.

CTFs. Not levels in general.

minmay May 5, 2006 06:45 AM

It wasn't on a forum, and you weren't there, so how would you know?
And why would I visit the JDC site when I have no interest in being so competitive?

CrimiClown May 17, 2006 07:54 AM

Hey all...

I'm sorry about the delay, but my school finals are coming up and stuff and I don't really have the time to be making levels right now... I will still contribute, only at a later moment in this project...

Flip a coin for who can actually start or something... ;)

Speeza May 17, 2006 08:09 AM

Its a community episode,everyone should be albe to make a level,no matter how crap it is,unless its something like with 1 tile.
If you want to make a episode with the best jazz2 level makers then go make one,but I just don't think its fair on others who are not good at making levels and not being albe to have a chance being in a COMMUNITY episode.

We never said crap levels, we said total absolute crap, and I'am pretty sure we all know it when we see it.

Can I play?
