MM8BDM Discussion / Re: Why is there no vanilla servers?

« on: July 11, 2012, 01:16:32 PM »

Every day I've logged into doom seeker there has been a vanilla server up. Sometimes 2 sometimes 3. The problem is no one is on those particular servers at the time so I go play Classes TLM and get lambasted by everyone on the opposite side.

They are up, but apparently I don't see many people in those rooms. If you want target practice, let me know and I'll see if I can hop on and, at least, make things interesting for you.

Although this is pretty old, and a flash game, it's still pretty fun I think: http://www.iragination.com/clips/fis/

Fireman - Incoming Storm is what it's called. Played this several years ago.

You should use lifter as that's the only way to get her to the gate. Otherwise, she'll derp around in the background until timer runs out (or get blasted to kingdom come by any other glydebot/machines.

Shameless plug: I am doing an LP (not 100% nothing really special due to my laziness) of MML2 on my youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/protoman111

Also, grats on successful speedrun. Also grats on beating the game on hard. I could never beat the stage before the Lake Jyun Subgate.

Anything Goes / Re: Gotta love wisdom teeth

« on: July 06, 2012, 01:30:20 PM »

Posting here to say I'll be gone for who knows how long due to some guy ripping out teeth from my skull tomorrow.

Had some of my wisdom pulled out myself (have to do the other side next year no other choice financially). Best advise I can give you:

1. Do not eat on that side of your mouth.
2. Do not dislodge blood clots as best you can. Can make life much more difficult (you will develop "dry socket").
3. Do not brush your teeth for the first 24 hours. Afterwards you can and you may want to do salt water rinse 5 times a day for at least a week. Do not rinse vigorously in that area, but let it sit there for a long time let it come out of your mouth (try avoid spitting too).
4. If you smoke, do not. Not at least for 48 hours.
5. Do not harass the sockets: leave them alone. No touching it with tongue or doing derpy things over there.
6. It's not bad at all. Just follow directions your doctor gives you and you will be okay.

Had 3 teeth pulled on one side (2 wisdom 1 impacted + 1 3rd molar). 3rd molar + 1 wisdom tooth is sealed up).

Just went online and got DESTROYED. What's a good way to practice?

Same here. Went in last night got destroyed myself. Problem is you're going to fight guys who are alot better than you. Like the last person said, learn what you can and ask people for tips. If you aren't one to ask (or are shy like myself), you could actually just learn by failure (as I have often times in the past).

Remember, those guys who destroy you started out as n00bs too and got better at the game.

Already tried that. I see all other games wads and etc except for 8-bit MM DM. I also realized earlier than it happens on the work computer. So I spam the crap out of "Get Servers" and got them to come up. Gonna spam the crap out of "Get Servers" at home to see if that fixes it.

On an odd note, saw the server I tried to host to test something (despite my computer being turned off for like an hour or so xD

Edit:   Found out what was going on. In the doom Seeker window bottom right hand corner Skulltag was set to N/A which meant it would not show any server with Skulltag related things. Switched it over and games show up now.

I had just come to find out that I cannot see any servers with mm8bit on my home computer. I found this out by going to my work computer and installing the files and attempting to see the game hosts and they showed up without a problem. So I will have to go home and figure it out. >_<

Gotcha. Thank you for that info. I'll probably just invest some time in playing story mode for awhile then move online.

When you choose skirmish, make sure you choose a map that uses the MM#BOS naming convention. (MM1CUT, MM6FLA) convention.  Because of, I guess licensing?, the maps for skulltag and doom still appear but they aren't available or don't appear correctly.

OHHHHHHHHhhhhhhh......

I thought only MM8B maps would appear at all. Okay so doom multilayer maps will appear in the listing, but I should only use maps that appear with the mm8b naming convention. Okay, thanks for that. What added to the confusion is that I already have the Ultimate Doom, Doom II Final Doom on my computer, but they're not in the same folder as the MM8bit death match is.

Hey, I took a while to finish Elecman's stage for the first time when I played the campaign.
Couldn't do multiplayer at that time.. For me, at least, didn't know how.

I was like that with Cutman's stage just because I was not aggressive enough (apparently).

I have another question (though I think this might need to go in the Editing section). When I play campaign mode it shows the map sets for the other games (megaman 2-6) as unavailable while 1 and 7 are working no problem. Question is, do I need to "unlock" them in Campaign mode by clearing the games (start with Megaman 1 maps going to Megaman 2)?

Also, I try to do offline skirmish, but every time I attempt to open a map it tells me that it cannot find it, and the game throws me out into the Console. I am using the default files that come with the game (and I assume it pulls all the necessary things from the pk3 file). I haven't extracted anything out of the pk3 file.

Also, finished editing the music wad. Everything works quite well. Also figured out the way the default music was setup it ends and starts in such a way it provides an almost seemless loop

In all honesty, I kinda wish they would remake Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake. It reminds me of MGS1 before there was ever a MGS1. Favorite MGS game would be 1. MGS3 is great too while MGS2 makes me feel like I am watching a moving more than playing a game. T_T

Being good against a moving bot WILL improve your aim against actual players.

Yeah I figured this as much. Regardless of whether it's BOT or human I would imagine getting used to firing at a moving target over time is good practice.

Yes I checked out those two threads through the course of the day. Never actually sat down to configure Doomseeker because I was too busy messing about the music file tutorials. Now in the process of replacing all the tracks in the music wad. At one point I attempted to use the OGG and set a loop perimeter, but it doesn't seem to work with this game (probably because it originally made to run ogg).

Thanks you everyone for your replies.
