Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

this is the menu made quite a time ago now, but Zerobeam might have a more updated one on terms of the profiles

http://www.swfcabin.com/open/1241978930

you menu was a good start, but you wouldnt believe how much time it takes to make 30 profile pages, but im sure ti will be fine in the end :)

yes an animated part would be awesome if you dont have any more flash stuff on

im sorry for double, but look who did or was going to do part one :P

yes i know good times, im not sure if i have control over the menu now, zero has taken it over but of you send the infomation in a pm i will make sure it gets added, im not sure how updated my notepad database of ng level collab users is. im 17 next week too!, i forgot age was on there, could make people judgmental or mental. i think zero didnt like part one and had a go at him for it being too basic, lol :P

hows the credits coming on? still club foot :)

Hey, i was wondering if i could get involved with this. I know it seems very late on but i'd think it would be pretty cool to get involved with this. If possible could i take number twelve (The fireman's axe and bronze fist)?
Cheers

some of your submissions look good, but you will have to pass the zerobeam test to get the part

yeah, okay i'll add that later, credits are fine, nothing really to edit, gotta wait until all the places are filled up before i can do much more to it, yeah still club foot, it'll probably be that unless someone suggests a better/more suitable song.

yes please :) we'd love it if you took that part, so long as your animation is good.... give it a go then Zerobeam will decide whether it is good enough or not.....but by all means please try :) we need more people

club foot is an awesome song but its not too suitable it just sounds cool, im up for making a mix or some modern songs, the best best of them unless someone has any objections?

oh yeah i wouldn't mind listening to any mixes of some songs you do, and if they fit then i'll happily add them to the credits.

and yeah we are beggers :D trying to get the last few people in for parts to finish this thing finally

A big 'lol' at all you guys! :D

It's great to see some of you so dandy and happy about it.
I'm sorry I haven't been online for this long; I was on a school trip which lasted 3 days + a friend is staying over and Flash is quite possible the last thing we're thinking about...

To everyone who wants to join: please do!
We seriously need those last parts filled so if you're still interested: DO APPLY! ;)

I'll hold a bit of a clean-up and clear all inactive users so more spots will be open. Right now, I have about 12 finished parts in the main collab; so it's already quite good. Now, I know there are still some people who are working on it (like Whirlguy) but there are also those who seem to have died... :(

At any rate, just post if you want to join or have any questsions: I'd gladly answer them. :)

(I might make a new thread to get more members, but not right now... exams *sigh*)

Cheers,
-Zerobeam

PS. Bertn (maker of The Pirate Collab) is sitting here and he says I should include this PS in here to mention that he's sitting here playing a EU50-worth guitar of which the snares have rust on them. He says hello to all :)

I continued making the menu anyway, and this is what it looks like so far.http://www.swfcabin.com/open/1243190 204

My comment:
First I will say yellow buttons and wet floor and walls maybe wet pants if you are really lucky.

if you make that for 30 icons also with profile screens for each and also 2 months ago, yes. But is Zerobeams choice at the end of the day. Mine is that i like mine because it was really newgrounds like, it had the tanks, sunbeams and yellow buttons, yellow buttons and yellow buttons.

I really appreciate your making the menu, but I'll have to disappoint you...

Please try to understand that Funky has been in the collab since the very start and the menu was his job. He spend a lot of time on it and besides: I've already made the actual collab file; and I integrated his menu into it.

So even if I'd use your menu, I'd have to remake EVERYTHING I have so far, which is quite a lot of work... It's just much easier at this stage to stick with Funky's menu.
Your menu looks great, that indeed, I'm afraid I just won't be able to use it though.

Sorry that I didn't tell your earlier,
and thanks for helping :)

Nah, that's not it. It gave me a dead link at first but it works now. Now that it does I thought I'd do a bit of criticising.

When you press levels, this white transparent thing slides into the screen from the side. It doesn't move in a straight line from right to left which looks messy and not very smooth. If it moves in a straight line it would be as cool as it's supposed to be. I advice to move the thing with your keyboard, not your mouse.

How the buttons spin into a different level when you hover over them is pretty neat and it'll be even cooler if you speed it up. Oh and the last frame of the first button is in a different position than the first. Which looks weird when you move your mouse away from the button. You should probably fix that, and again: If you want to do it accurately you should use your keyboard. Not the mouse.

I think that's all. Good job.

Whirly, you're still working on that great part of yours, aren't you?

It's almost done; isn't it?

I didn't continue making the Menu with hopes to get in, I just wanted everyones opinion.
(so continue commenting please)

well it was quite a time ago, but yours did seem a bit featureless, maybe add a pre loader game and some neat extras as well as custom options to change the bg colour and volume, all easily done. and also add a decent scroll box with mouse wheel support and nice inertia with all 30 parts with profiles and links to there user page in, with also a tool bar that will display while the animations are being played that you can change quality. volume and return to main menu. Then your might be ok and not just look good.

Yeah it is, you're right. I haven't been working because I felt this collab was moving so slow and didn't think it'd make a difference. I'll go work on my animation again and once I finish it I'll probably pick a new part to work on. Other people should probably do the same because we'll never fill those spots any other way.

Oh and funky, was my critisism helpful? :P

well tbh i don't know what that straight line thing was about, i only noticed the big white box with the levels on came in at an angle, i had to view it a few times to notice.

About the keyboard control you were on about, im in two minds, sometimes its good to give that arcade feel and gives the mouse a rest seeing you are not going to be using the mouse in the animations, having the options to have both keyboard and mouse control would be the ultimate.

But overall nice comments, maybe try to give a range of different comments, some that can be more easily implemented for the guy, some seemed like they could take some time.

I noticed it right away, I suppose I have eye for these things lol.
About the keyboard controls: I didn't mean controls for the menu; I meant the flash workspace. Use your keyboard when replacing things in the workspace to get a straight horizontal motiontweens, lol.

Aright, well, if you're working on it again, it'll definitely motivate others as well.

Besides, we don't have THAT many parts left! :]
And yours looks great; so I'm glad.

I suppose it would be better if we made a new thread, as that always attracts a lot more people.
However, I won't make one just yet... I'm still about to have my exams and I'll be off to Ukrain for a month. Yeah, I'll have internet access, but I want to make sure the new thread stays active :]

So far I'd say we've done a great job,
just a bit more :]

oh like F9 and ctrl + alt +1/2/3/4/5/6? you could have just said you can use keyboard shortcuts for the menu, hmph :)

and Zerobeam, you leaving us so soon?

Dude! dude! no need to get all defensive, i was just expressing my opinion.
You did a great job on the menu.
I only didnt like the look(Newgrounds style) , So that is what I focused on.

Im not going to do all 30 levels when its not going to be used, that would be pointless.

how come because if its not being used, but if you use it for another project then fair enough

Sweet! Never knew about the ctrl + alt + numbers! I've always been using shift + X + Direction lol. But yeah, that's what I mean :3
Also I'm an idiot. I should have adressed magumanu instead of you XD

Hey guys, just popping in to say I am nearly finished. I have been really busy lately with setting up my game for the Power of 3 contest, and I recently became a Tapulous (iPhone Tap Tap Revenge company) BETA Tester. . . So I have also been busy with that.

I won't post a preview, but I'll say it's really coming along :)
