[Map Pack] Mr. X's X Pack and stuff

[Mr. X]

Attention:  I am recommending a new way to install my maps.  Please read Ivory's tutorial on installing custom content here:  http://cutstuff.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=1044.  Thank you!

[Mr. X]

Attention again.

Ignore my last post, put them in skins until the new launcher comes out.  The reason is connecting to servers while using that last method is difficult.

[Mr. X]

Sorry for the triple post, but I'm announcing a new stage (possibly series of stages).  Actually, it's kind of a new mode, but not really.




It's time to race!  This race course (current title:  Sunset Canyon) is meant to be played in Last Man Standing.  Racers can either race to the end and win (i.e. when one racer gets to the end, the rest die.  I have an idea on how to pull this off) or try to take each other out using the random weapons given to them.  There will be shortcuts, possibly gimmicks (if not on this course, on the next one), and whatnot.

Ohhh, there's a theme we haven't had yet. I was thinking of a boat racing minigame but I dunno how I'd pull it off without making multiple stages AND an patch add-on too.

Map looks fab though!

Ahah! I knew someone would make a racing game if I told them to!

Enjoy your reward...

Hello. This text is your reward, I hope you are eternally grateful.

oooh nice, maybe ask cutmanmike for help into programming it into a new mode? it shouldn't be too hard to pull off! i'd really love to see this in the next version!
this reminds me of a megaman super mario kart hack i wanted to make ahaha

[KillerChair]

Looks fancy!

[CarThief]

I think i can code that in ACS, if no-one else is available for it or they dont think they can do it. Of course my ACS is a little... sloppy, but if it works... hey, why not?

It might take a while if you're asking for anything particularly difficult or simply something that takes long to code.
Seems interesting though, hehe... Perhaps i should make my own.

Oh, and considering its a race and its hard to shoot nothing but forward unless you like to lose speed, maybe creating a new weapon like mines (or rather, powerups? kinda like in those racing games like mario cart, pick up box, recieve random item).

[brotoad]

the mystery tanks from MM3 would contain items maybe? like dive missile that would be used like redshells

[Mr. X]

Ahah! I knew someone would make a racing game if I told them to!

Hello. This text is your reward, I hope you are eternally grateful.

You only said somebody should do it after I said I was thinking about it.

Thanks for the feedback.  I think you're all thinking about this way more than I am, I was just intended to have it as a side-game with LMS.




I've got to remember to go back and make sure the buoys are facing the correct way.

[brotoad]

if this got made into an actual racing mode it would be amazing! i'm gonna be starting a super mario kart hack now because you INSPIRED ME

[CutmanMike]

It could easily be done if you had LMS in mind. At the finish line just have it kill everyone except the winner!

[brotoad]

that would be cool! any way to record who came in second and third and stuff?

[CutmanMike]

Only if those players cross the finish line too I guess. Keeping track of who's in what place would be very tricky.

[KillerChair]

First player to finish gets triple instagib blades?
