First of all - the game should be uploaded on a hosting site and available for everyone to download free. No prices, no buying!

If you want to earn money, you will loose players!

ShadeJackrabbit Jul 7, 2007 07:58 AM

Wait, what's your problem? Are you saying that you can't send an e-mail through Jazz 2? Because you can't. Period.

Dermo Jul 7, 2007 08:28 AM

i'm going away for about 2 or 3 weeks but i'd still like to help if possible when I get back.

Jerrythabest Jul 7, 2007 12:23 PM

I'm going away on thursday for 2 weeks and when I come back I hope there are some pages with ideas. Also, I hope moderators can keep spammers like those guys above me from the thread.

Oh well, I'm still here and still making up stories... I'll make sure I got something to write stuff in when I'm gone, so that I can write down my ideas while being on the sunny, hot beach in the south of Egypt ;p

press T

woulden't fooruman movie , the one where hes playing ctf , count as a machinma , I don't really get what these are , but that would help get jazz2 more populer

Jerrythabest Jul 8, 2007 11:29 AM

A machinima is a small movie featuring the characters of a video game (and possibly some objects or effects or so from other games) which has been made entirely in the game (except for adding effects etc.).


I think everyone agrees on this character for Spaz:
-Really ADHD, always running around
-Talking extremely fast and stuttery (possibly needs subtitles ;p)
-Wants to do everything again and again but asks Jazz (or whoever is standing next to him) can I can I can I can III???
-Laughs a lot


And how about this character, with the caterpillar sprites:
-Talks like a hippie
-Ends all sentences with 'dude'
-Says things like "Hey dude! Let's not fight dude!" or "Totally heavy dude!"

Speeza Jul 8, 2007 01:11 PM

lol yeah ,he gives you some of his drugs , and you have to fight stoned.

lol have the queen in it , have something like jazz running down to her trying to tell her something , and hes like "look im trying to tell you something important...." "ahhhhhh" then ends up killing her :P

We do? Because, um, that's really not what he's like in the JJ2 manual.

I tried understanding but all I got was that he had some vague problem and wanted help by email or PM, just like UV thought.

EDIT: Oh wait, posts have titles too.

Jerrythabest Jul 9, 2007 09:35 AM

May I point out that I've seen that post in various threads and that it's identical in all of them and doesn't have anything to do with the thread at all?

I got a seen in mind. I'm just brain storming.

Jazz and Spaz are sitting in the castle and there talking.

Jazz: Ok. So that's 1 large pepperoni pizza with no mushrooms. Right Spaz
Spaz: (Talks in a weird voice.) HAHA! Look! A dancing potato!
Jazz looks and hes watching a weird tv show.
Jazz: Ok........ I'll take that as a yes.
Jazz dials the number.
Pizza operator.: Hello! Pysic Pizza Tweedle speaking.
Jazz: WHAT! TWEEDLE! WERE HAVE YOU BEEN! You never appeared in Jazz 2. What have you been doing?
Tweedle: Well I got a stunt double to do my part so I could work in this pizza place. But he was to scared so he never appeared.
Jazz: WHAT?!? Next thing I'm going to here is that Blisy is working as Santa clause!
Tweedle: (Says in a studery voice) But he is.
Jazz: WHAT??!?!?! OK THAT"S IT! YOU KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE YOU LET DOWN WHEN YOU DIDN"T SHOW UP!...
Jazz continues to rant on. Lori comes into the room.
Lori: Um spaz who is jazz yelling at?
Spaz: Ummm. uhhh Tweedle I think. Ow the patato is dancing again!
Lori: But Tweedle is at the door with the pizza. So who is he yeling at?
Devan: Man. I go to a pizza pearler to get away from Jazz and he starts yelling at me anyway. ow dear.

End sceen

Now weed need new sprites for this but this is just an idea.

Jerrythabest Jul 10, 2007 12:52 PM

Hehe it actually made my smile ;) nice ending ;p this defenately goes into the ideas file ;p

q4live Aug 21, 2007 09:44 AM

Hey why the inactivity all of the sudden? I know there are some more ideas out there somewhere. And think up of characters and names, but stay in reality (only for a bit) so don't overdo it.

Jerrythabest Aug 21, 2007 09:46 AM

Note: he's the person mentioned in post #1 ;)

Dermo Aug 21, 2007 11:19 AM

If i'm going to send this to G4 (TV for gamers) which is a US channel and isn't air anywhere else, it'd be a bit confusing to put the Tweedle Boss in there since this game is so unpopular that nobody i've EVER MET has played this game and nobody would know much about it. Even if they had played the game, the Tweedle Boss is not at all mentioned in the game and therefore it would further confuse anybody who's played the game at all. The only people this episode would apply to is community members and that's not good. We need something like red vs blue type thing.

q4live Aug 21, 2007 12:39 PM

We need two bases where two teams are wich are at war against each other. We also need a map with a lot of places where there can be a battle. Also a third team wich remains secret in the begin and of wich the entrance is hidden. And of course easy to change in JCS so there would always be something new.

Ideas: two bases are of Jazz and Spaz, and units all look like those an third group Lori's.

Any other ideas? Please post them. Anyone (who can post).

You have a point there. We're trying to make up stories with characters like Jazz, Spaz, Lori, Devan and Eva and have only smaller roles for enemies and end bosses, and IMHO the only one of them that may deserve a larger role is the queen boss, as she's the only one in any way related to the characters mentioned (for those who haven't thought of it: Eva is the princess, so the queen is her mother).

Dermo Aug 21, 2007 12:45 PM

Look i nevered cared too much about the story link of jj2. Think of it this way. Did Red vs Blue follow the story line to Halo at ALL? No.

EDIT: I wish I could find that (-) sonic comic it was really funny. They had robotnic's girl helper as a prostotute, tails was a pimp. It was really funny but I can't find it now.

cooba Aug 21, 2007 12:48 PM

Sounds like a Foo Movie except without the foo factor.

Jerrythabest Aug 21, 2007 12:49 PM

We mustn't remake Red vs Blue, we're making our own machinima, which could very well use the character links from the original story. Only problem may be the link bedween Lori and Spaz: sister or girlfriend? Lori appeared first back in 1.10o when she was still Spaz's girlfriend-to-be.

cooba Aug 21, 2007 12:50 PM

Let's omit Lori out of the plot completely ;)

Jerrythabest Aug 21, 2007 12:53 PM

What! NO! That's mean. She's part of the game!

blurredd Aug 21, 2007 02:18 PM

Derive humor by implying both could be true while never specifying which one is actually true.

Dermo Aug 21, 2007 07:13 PM

Let's NOT BASE THIS OFF THE JAZZ JACKRABBIT 2 STORY LINE, GUYS! Ok so maybe Lori is jazz's sister in the game. But who cares? We are FREE! WE ARE FREE PEOPLE WITH THIS! WE CAN DO WHAT WE WANT! So if we wanted to make Lori jazz's girlfriend, then let it be done. I don't want this based on the story line because most our viewers will not know the story line and because of that we are free to do what we want!

Violet CLM Aug 21, 2007 08:42 PM

...if it's not based on the JJ2 storyline, then what's the point? We could take any sprites in the world and give them random names and characters. JJ2 characters necessitate JJ2 relationships. If viewers do not understand what's going on, then obviously that is a problem with the storytelling of the machinima.

Jerrythabest Aug 22, 2007 12:18 AM

We are not remaking the JJ story, we're just not changing how the characters are related to one another. So:

-Jazz and Spaz are brothers
-Jazz and Eva are man and wife
-Eva is a princess, so the queen is her mother
-Devan is their enemy

It's VERY important we don't mix up the characters as the machinima will be hard to understand if the relations are completely unclear. Lori may indeed be a nice exception, which may eventually pay back in a funny scene.

q4live Aug 22, 2007 01:31 AM

Lets try not to include boss characters, since it will be hard to control those. Try to only use Jazz, Spaz and Lori, since they are playable characters and easy to control.

In most movies you aren't able to control any character, I could be wrong though.

q4live Aug 22, 2007 06:00 AM

A machinima is filmed in the game, so people must control the characters to make them do the things you want done. So actually all we do is control the characters, do the voices and the filming and the graphics we already have.

DoubleGJ Aug 22, 2007 06:47 AM

It would be best to not use the idea of two fighting teams, since that's just overdone. We could start off by random short joke scenes which would later evolve into a storyline, for example.

q4live Aug 22, 2007 07:28 AM

Hmm you can always make really short battles and short jokes around it. And it has to have a storyline in it from the beginning.

Jerrythabest Aug 22, 2007 11:59 AM

I agree with DoubleGJ. We'd better stick to easy funny jokes at the start and then, if we are getting the hang of it, we make something bigger.

Also I think we could perfectly use the queen boss as all she does is screaming and stomping anyway. We just have to say her text lines really 'screamy'. It's hard, but it's certainly possible to use her. But we'll have to adapt the scene to what she does instead of controlling her. And maybe JazzSD may allow us to replace the sprites of one playable character with a non-playable character.
