Noshit man, he can do it.

If we BELIEVE

youre all banned!

Seriously though I do agree. I hate designing levels too, I want to spend my time making things look nice, not figuring out if the level is fun to play and doing endless level plans and sketches to make it all fit together well.

Theres literally 1000's of really well designed levels out there, I dont see anything wrong with borrowing some ideas :)

Wheres sonicz?! D:

Hey guys. Just a quick question - i didnt feel the need to start a new thread.
Is it possible to make a shortcut key so for 150% zoom? Using the "keyboard shortcuts" window, you can assign shortcuts to actions, even ones that you create yourself using the save feature of the history panel. But for a 150% zoom, it seems like you can only make a keyboard shortcut for 100%, 200%, 400%, etc, but not 150%. anyone know how to do this? I suspect it isn't possible.
Oh, and i use flash 8. heh. I'm a bit behind the times I suppose.

Speaking of which, isn't flash 10 out? what's that like, eh?
Personally I think flash hasn't changed from at least versions 5 to 9. The new filters in version 8 are the biggest change I'm aware of.

flash 10 is flash cs4 i believe. and don't feel bad, i still have flash mx.

I went to Spain for a week.

Madrid is an amazing city, Toledo is beautiful.

Go to Spain. It is fun.

We should reunite them, that'll make LittleBigFlash 1-Up the PS3 version.

Little Big Planet thingie

Level design is a pain..you never know what's gonna work till it's done.

Remember Banjo Kazooie, is it just me, or did that have some of the best level design ever.

Why can't games worlds be more like that.

I want to go to Spain, to test out my Spanish.

In other news, does colliding with a car going 15/20mph count as being 'hit by a car'? It threw me about 5 meters and I did a little flip. Rather embarrassing, but I decided to just press onward to school and not make a big thing out of it, as it was mostly my fault.

I'm so unlucky right now, first I get robbed then old men start running me over :(

No broken bones though :D

One thing you start to see in LBP design is that you don't really want to play levels created by people who have no experience making video game levels. While that seems sort of snobbish I kept going back to the levels they created for the Adventure mode because a lot of the user-created levels were rather weird or didn't work correctly... and sometimes were just unfocused and hard to play in. Although some were just amazing... I can't discredit everyone out there because some things were just brilliant... after you waded through all the other levels...

How is that embarrassing? That sound's like an amazing maneuver. Scarily, exactly the same thing happened yesterday morning to someone I know, on the way to school. I'm not sure about doing a flip though.

Level design and it's gheyness

In the game that I'm (meant to be) making at the moment the levels are made from a bitmap, so you draw a top down level, where grey is destructable terrain, black is hard walls, red dots generate baddies, green dot generates goodie etc. Then when it generates the level it reads through every few pixels and makes what the colour indicates. Its quick to generate, levels are easily made, and it opens up a bunch of opportunities to have custom levels made by users then stored someplace to be used by anyone.

Which reminds me, anyone know how to convert a string into a byte array?

I don't know, it's just there were a tonne of eyes on me as it was busy. I just had to get up and limp away while they all just stared before continuing to drive. Last time when I cycled into a car some woman started shouting at me, but this time it was just silent :/ The driver got out of his car, but I just told him not to worry and that I was fine. My brother seems to think I should've made a claim though...

Oh FFS I've done all I can to get rid of anything that might cause that. All ad frames are gone, all links to planetbob.net (went up for auction, now owned by some bulgarian twat) are deleted, so WTF IS CAUSING THOSE ALERTS. It's seriously annoying the shit out of me, I can't see ANYTHING in the HTML or Flash embeds that could trigger virus/spyware warnings. Help me out, guys. I'm not getting revenue from the site but I don't want it to die because there's malicious code on there.

Who wants to text and talk outside on NG? Hit me up in a PM with your number, if your cool, I'll text you mine ;)

I assume the fuckwits at avast have a 'cache' type system, so if you visit a site and it flags up their software, it's sent to their central database and every other user is auto flagged, to save trawling through the site... maybe?

It seems to me like the only explanation.

So you want to make a level in flash that uses the capabilities of lbp..so like its phsyics and stuff.and to be able to make different things with simple tools?

Frames! Oldschool! :)

Still, a quick google tells me that avast seems to think your page is running an invisible Iframe exploit, maybe because you havn't set a width or height to your frame? I know you've used rows and cols, but newer stuff might not look for that...

Best alternative is not to use frames at all, just have your header as an include with PHP. Avast really can't complain then!
