I don't post here very often, but I have made a little (six levels and a bit of a seventh) world, I hope I will make it bigger and better soon, but I need some beta testers. You do not need to be too skilled - my levels arn't very hard. I would like 2 - 4...ish. Thank-you.

I'll do it also. Even though I'm already beta testing for PCheese, I'll do it. E-mail me at danielblanchard@mac.com.

I'm twiddling my thumbs now after finishing Basic Nothingness for awhile. I'll gladly help.

Greetings - I am your friendly neighborhood moderator. Over the coming years I shall force-feed you my biased one-sided liberal tripe that I find truthful based upon my own faulty and fragmented logic; excessive smileys 
and bizarre TexT! formatting also help clarify my inane points. Welcome to the boards!

I have been working for about four hours this-moring. All I managed to do was set myself a goal and get rid of some bugs :mad:
------------------------------
(UPDATE) - Added some to level seven. Has a proper exit, not as much of a challenge as I would have liked.
(GOAL) - To make a Maze Level by September 2001.
(FIX) - Got rid of unnecessary FG Crunch Tiles.
(UPDATE) - Added FG Overlay tiles - not as much spin-jumping etc.
(GOAL) - Finish level eight in the next two days.
------------------------------
I will send all Beta Testers 'Malcolm's World 0.0.3 Beta'. No read-me.

Hi everyone...or no-one, whoever is reading this. By the way, who is reading this?
------------------------------
(STATUS) - Maze level about 20% complete. Is a big kind of square spiral in it. Been working flat out - unfortunatly for only about 2 hours. as Labyrinth. Harder, though. I hate shcool!!! Is planned to be same/bigger size as Labyrinth.
(COMMENT) - Not working on any levels except maze level. Still only have two beta reports - soon going to release Beta 0.0.4. Oh, and this is beta version. Not proper versions. Else I'd be on about 0.0.1.

Use Res-Edit. I'm not sure where to DL it. Go to the file menu, Choose Get Info for _______, and check the box that says locked.

Bob,
Thanks for the instructions. I used what you gave me, but...if you do 'get info' on the file you can easily un-lock it, however, I hacked a read-only simplet text document and looked at the info and changed the file creator. This worked excellently. BTW, I owe most of it to you - 'coz I didn't know 'bout the info bit before. (I kicked myself...and not as a figure of speech.)
------------------------------
(STATUS) - Added Xichrons in passages, added a little trick with overlays, and added a rock chute...um...shooty bit.
**(COMMENT) - Does anyone know what the info fields of rock chutes do? I know the first one is for button ID, but I'd like to be able to fire anything I can insert the ID of. This is what I know...or think I know:
info (0) - Button ID
info (1) - ???
info (2) - Um, 1 for exploding rocks?
info (3) - If info (2) sn't exploding rocks, this is...I think...**
(COMMENT) - Mysterious Shadows sounds good for a name, 'cept there ain't no lightmap. I could make it dark and put torches where I don't want it to be dark...
------------------------------
I am really desperate for answers on the rock chute problem.

They're not. It's a joke. He's very "right" and I'm very "left," and we've argued a lot. I wondered how he'd respond to it, but so far he hasn't.

That's for rock chutes. Enemy pipes are the things(in O&E;, probably other levels too)that make enemies, and if you kill them they make more.
