MaGL X2 Relay Level (What is a level? A miserable little pile of...)

[adamwcz]

My current free time is as follows:
Thursday, May 14th at 2:00am until 1:00am on Friday, May 15th
Sunday, May 17th at 11:00pm until 8:30pm on Tuesday, June 9th

So if blue_kirby gets his part done by tonight then I could go next. Otherwise I have to wait until Sunday night.

Sounds like you're next then :)

Working on it tonight. I'll upload when finished!

Would it be possible to get Sunday, May 24th to work on my section? The way progress seems to be going it looks like my turn would be up sometimes between Thursday and Saturday, which happens to be a hilariously bad timeframe for me due to my job being a butt. =/

To whoever is next: Your part begins in Section 5, to the far right,

just past the key door in the purple area

Sure, I'd think that can be arranged.

Mercy upon any who made grammatical errors in their MaGL X2 level ;)

ok I spent way too much time looking into that:

"whoever" is a subject pronoun; it is used when one acts.

"whomever" is an object pronoun; it is used when one is acted upon.

The verb here is "is" - "whoever" is the subject of the verb.

"whoever is next" is to "he who is next" as "whomever is next" is to "him who is next"

*whoever

Disagreeing with Horikawa is -60 points.

Grammar and spelling mistakes are an instant -30 each.

Even if it's a character within the level that has poor grammar because they aren't great at communicating?

[HealthyMario]

One thing, I am only free at the weekends, so that means I am not be able to do this on the weekdays

[Rednaxela]

The interesting language lessons aside, anyone want to go today and/or tonight?

(ping-ing a few people who may be able to go who are soon in the list, but the question is open to anyone)

Waa

[SAJewers]

FYI Somehow the Fixes I had made to Section 4 to make the autoscroll work got wholly reverted. :/

Give me some time to re-fix everything.

[Rednaxela]

Hrm... annoying that that happened. Right, that should get fixed indeed.

[SAJewers]

Even worse, Aall LUA code after after the boot filter is gone too (arabsalmon and Lejes's stuff, and anyone else after who did LUA code.)

Thankfully I had a backup from I think Maiku's screen, and re-copied the missing code.

[SAJewers]

OK, this should be the re-fixed version. Note in 1 quick test Lejes's code still didn't fire for some reason, and the second autoscroll code might still have the wrong time (causing the screen to scroll to far)

MAGLX2Relay-SAJewers.7z

You might want to edit that so it's an actual link.

[SAJewers]

Whoops.

[Fawriel]

Ye gods, I seem to actually have a functioning Windows again. ... I mean, I still can't get any sound in SMBX for some reason, BUT at least I can theoretically do this level-making thing.

... not today, mind, because it's pretty late now, and tomorrow might be bad, too, because I'll be RPing for an uncertain amount of time, but Sunday should definitely probably work...?

[YelseyKing]

Oh. I... somehow completely forgot this was a thing. (Due to things that happened since, I've... become less proud of my MAGLX2 stage, and have been largely not following the contest anymore as a result...) Do I like, have to download and play each individual section before working on mine? Or is there some mashup that's already been assemble for easier use? Also, I won't be using Luna/Lua/whatever, since I don't know how, and I can't think of anything so ambitious on a single screen that I'd *need* it for, so... yeah.

[Dragon Fogel]

It's all one stage, just download the 7z file SAJewers posted (which is the most recent version right now). Then just add one screen to the end of whatever the latest section is. Running through the other stuff is optional (but doesn't hurt for testing and to see if you want to reference anything earlier in the level).

I skimmed through a lot of the level, just to get a general idea on what it was about.

Good to hear your computer troubles are lesser. With regards to no sound, what version SMBX are you running? If the vanilla one, you may have better luck with the dev kit that has LunaDLL as that does sound differently. Anyway, I'll have you tentatively slotted in for Sunday then.

So, who wants to go today? :)

Ping-ing people who requested a Saturday or the weekend (but of course, anyone can chime up to go today):

Latest version is here

[Fawriel]

I'll go ahead and take the wheel then.

[Fawriel]

... actually, nevermind. This isn't going to work until someone explains to me how to actually apply that dev kit. I copied all the files into the directory, but the next step tells me to run "makeDLL.exe" as if it was the most natural thing in the world, but I'm not seeing the file anywhere and not even Google's being helpful.

(Also I'm in a terrible shape right now, so there's that, too.)
