raocow's talkhaus

Glad to see the return of the Ghost of Christmas Ghost. Steadier cameras are indeed appreciated.

Incidentally, MaGL X2 has made me realise that if this whole academia thing doesn't work out, I should be an event planner haha. >Hire Horikawa to plan wedding >Wedding band is your favorite band >Cake is your favorite kind of cake >Decorations are downright gorgeous >Invited friends that you haven...

so the post-post game is where things are really at, yo

The hype is real!

True. I completely forgot how much text-dump exposition there was. In retrospect I'm concerned that it might be a problem with the game as a whole.

Good LP confirmed boys! I'm very excited to see you play this game. There's a ton of thought put into this game even if it isn't super polished.

The funny thing about this is that I've been eying the remaining contestant lists throughout this contest and I always found it funny that I've just been "Talkhaus" even though I was never active until this February and I'd never done anything for SMBx before xD A little after the LP star...

I think the whole concept behind the MaGL series was to keep that sort of stuff vague and open to just let anything creative that people want to make come through. I think it has brought us some wonderful offerings as a result.

I would play that. Is there a Mario Land hacking community?

I'll try to update the thread tonight. I've been working almost nonstop alongside others on the postgame getting things finalised and inserted. To give you an idea, I started work on it last night at 10pm and now it's 9am and I'm done this session. I've done like... 20-30 of these in the past too, ...

This gave me a hearty chuckle. Bummer about that cop out though. A better cop out would be to bake a shoe-shaped cake or something.

Hey, before we start this final stretch of the contest I want to give a hearty congratulations to all those still in. You beat some really amazing levels in this contest and you should be wonderfully proud of yourselves as designers. Seriously, whoever ends up with that gift card should buy like, RP...

Wow, I am gunning so hard for last place for the guess the top 5 bosses contest.

Developer commentary for our level Psychedelic Magnificent Waluigi: https://youtu.be/AIIs2GYNVzg

Ohhhhhh I know why this happens. For the record, it worked properly for the judges. This bug was fixed (accidentally breaking the effect) in a later version of LunaLua. I never made the connection that this was how the level did this effect so I didn't realise it's break it. Sorry! No worries, I'm ...

but... "basically perfect?" i just dont see it. It's not perfect. It was only good enough to get a really good/high score on all of the categories for them. but she said it was basically perfect? jesus christ though imagine the shitstorm if this level DID win I know, right? Then Doctor Sp...

.... woah

if someone records this, can said someone send me the video file of just that segment, without commentary? With permission, I'd like to upload it on my channel.

I'll do that during my record session tonight for commentary.

You can still see the original version, if you open the level with the smbx.exe and not the lunaloader.exe, or the new launcher thing. I might be able to record this too. The frame rate won't be too good though. I was planning on making video commentary tonight. I have an old version and that bit w...

Oh man, it's our level! Proper commentary will come soon but I do want to point out that the second exit had something wrong. It was supposed to look much trippier and I'll post a video later.

Hey, FrozenQuills, wanna update that "dudes remaining" list so we can start guessing who will be the controversial 37th place tomorrow?

Is this going on your family tree?

I really want to see a full MAGLX2 family tree after this. It's ridiculous how many of these levels tie in somehow.

Hey raocow, any teases for the next week or so of videos?

It's nice to see lots of single-star levels. It's very easy to get dragged into the mentality of needing to cram more content into your level regardless of how complete it already is.

Also, Doctor Sponge and I survived yet another video!

raocow wrote:next episode is the first three level video in quite a while!

I'm excited because this means more levels. I'm nervous because the level I designed was fairly short and would likely facilitate such a video.

Horikawa Otane wrote: I did the same thing to everyone who didn't read the rules and did random things other than an exit star.

Guilty as charged. Have any stats on how many people are bad at reading directions?

My MAFAB guess is:
1. Holy
2. Willhart
3. Dragon Fogel
4. Windslash
5. FrozenQuills
