U LIEK BOOM BLOX?!1!??

[MGMT]

I don't know if you can do this, but you should make it so the bomb blocks blow up other blocks.

I like the changes, but it does get annoying having to use the mouse to move the screen around, perhaps let us use the arrows to move the camera and use Spacebar + Mouse Wheel to rotate objects? Just a suggestion.

I found another interesting thing to do:

Select a static kind of block, and then hold down left click while holding left or right arrow.

Creates funny rainbow circles.

Through the magic of Photoshop, I've pieced together a picture of my pinball-type game... now for two players!

I'll try to work on doing that kind of chain reaction with the explosions. The complaint about using the mouse to navigate is annoying is pretty common, I'll just probably make the entire room in plain view next time.

Nice creation. : D I should piece together one of my master volcanoes and post it here later.

Here's a few of my creations:

(small) Volcano timeline:
The setting
ASPLOSION!!1!!
The aftermath


Basketball:
version 1
version 2

Basketball is really fun and challenging.

Here's what to look for (so far) in the next version:

-Free Play mode screen is full-screen
-Explosive Contact blocks now do not explode when touching a static object
-Explosive Contact or Explosive Blocks can chain react
-Highlight problem with Explosive Contact block fixed
-'Careful' arcade level added

How does basketball work? D:

Throw the circles into the hoop, silly. (space+left mb)

Ohhhh. I thought it dealt with asplosions. :3

Everything's better when it does.

Edit: Just downloaded Version 2.

Another thing I noticed, which actually happens with static objects in Forge in Halo 3, is that after you remove a static block from under a non-static object after the object has settled, the non-static will stay floating, unless disturbed.

I took a video of your volcano thing Fabio.

it wont show up. XD



I <3 APLOSIONS!

For whatever reason, in the arcade I can't play any levels except the first one... When I click the others, nothing happens.

That's supposed to happen for now.

Oh... Ok.

Also, I found a new way to make a volcano. Make the normal volcano, with a pyramid of non-static blocks on top. (If you have trouble, you can use the static trick mentioned above.) Then proceed to fill the volcano with circles. Eventually, the circles will force the blocks off the top. It's slower and less cool looking than the regular volcano, but it still works. Kind of.

Yeah, that wasn't a very good explanation... I'll try to get pictures of the steps.

Edit: Ok... Hopefully these make things a little clearer for you.

As you can see, the key here is not bumping the pyramid of blocks at the top. This takes a bit longer and isn't as ASPLOSION!!1!-ey as the bomb method, but still works. Sort of.

One last tip; if you hold down the mouse button when filling the volcano, it goes much faster.

 

[Fabioisonfire]

You guys are a lot more creative than I.

And yeah, that static issue (that appears in Halo 3's Forge) is one I noticed, but had no idea how to fix, so I figured if Bungie can't, I can't.

 

[Tyler]

I'm downloading it right now. :yes:

A few suggestions for your next version;

-Sometimes when an Exploding Touch Block goes off, blocks that are hit by it and sent flying will hit a static block and get stuck in it... I don't know if that can be fixed, though.

-Like others have mentioned, maybe do something about the camera in Free Play. It's a bit annoying when I go to place a peice and the camera flies off into the blue.

-Is there any way to add the ability to zoom in and out in Free Play?

-If you ever get around to it, maybe add a few new blocks, such as a bouncy block or something.

Also, don't change this because it's funny to watch, but in Free Play, place a Long Block (Not Static) on the ground, lying horizontally. Now, place another (Still not Static) horizontal Long Block beneath it, under the ground. Both blocks get launched up into the air.
