Hello!!

Do you need anyone else to write music? I have already wrote some songs I personally think would be good for the game! One of them reminds me of a half dead monkey on a flying elephant!! I played one for my siter and she jumped out the window(yes, she did do this but luckily it was only the first story!!!!)

So do you want to use any of my songs?

If you do you must pay me 3 million per song!!!!!

YES I MEAN IT!!!!

Whoa, it looks like AVN!

No thanks, then.
We don't have that much money.

Can we make Ferazel have a shield before the Lost Mines?
I want to have Ferazel fight several Armadillos in a cramped passage, and he needs a shield for that.

Hey~ There isn't a ":P" smiley icon! Or maybe you need a nose...oh yeah it has to be lowercase. Perfect.

By the way AVN, what do you consider "Ferazel's Wandish?" Not as an insult or anything, I just want to know so I can make more MIDIs that you approve of.

Users don't need Finale to play the music.
Make a backup of the Music file "01", and replace it with a Finale MIDI.
Then play the first origional level, and it'll work fine.

Wow! :eek: Is it possible that Ferazel's Wand supports every sound format without being supposed to? I even emailed spamguy about it and he said it's required that it's in AIFF, IMA compression, etc. Maybe this was a beta feature or something and then Ben Spees canned it, only to find...it works! I have a new midi, called the Ferazfunk--I'm going to send it to you (aschaaf, that is) soon.

------------------
Remember, this conversation never took place.

Ferazfunk? Well, it's better than my names...

I don't know what I consider "Ferazel's Wandish", I guess just something that sounds more like it could be played in the BG of a game.

You don't have Finale? Give your MIDI's to me and I will use Finale's instruments. Be sure to tell me what instruments each part is, of course.

I'm working on something to go before Xichra. Everybody like 8 demon heads and some booby traps? I sure hope so... (Maybe I should quit it with the impossible levels, they're getting too hard. Nahhh... :))

OK what's your email address?

I'm going to repost one of my old posts that didn't get any replies, I edited it a little and tell me what you think of these ideas for OBW:

Beginning of Old Post

----------

Here are some ideas I've been having to spur level makers:
1. For the ocean world, have a sunken city or coral reef level.
2. In a dark woods level or something, make a REALLY big jump. You have to do a running jump and even then you fall for a long time and think you're going to die, but then you catch on to a ledge and pull yourself up. This has to be the next to last level. Mark my words. It's side scrolling tradition. So you pull yourself up, there's a save point, some ziridium brine (purple liquid), and then you enter a really hard level, like a castle. The ledge could be the windowsill of a castle. Hmmm...I wonder where I got that from...anyone else a fan of PoP2?
3. A Boss battle on a broken bridge...would it be possible to change the sprites in the middle of the battle so first its a normal bridge and then it breaks and you both go falling? Again, I'm taking a lot of ideas from the game mentioned above. Oh well.
4. Are you sure OBW needs to have Xichra as a boss? Wouldn't it be more original to have a hard level and at the end and have a bunch of other mini-bosses in the last room?
5. A tavern! Make lots of people there, telling rumors and hints about how to find secrets and stuff like that. And you could make a brothel. No, please! Don't take away my karma! I didn't mean it! Honest!

No, I think Xichra is a good last boss. (Change the sprites, though)

The other ideas are good. And the room full of minibosses will most likely be in there in the second-to-last level.

And, unfortunately, we can't change the bridge to be broken. I have a level which uses a magic carpet and I put cannons off the top, sides, and bottom, which shoot down and sideways. If you go off the screen, you will be shot off the carpet and will plummet to your doom. Anyone for battling a boss in a hangglider?

I think we should do that with the Manditraki Wizard.

Lo and behold, they have been posted!
(url="http://"http://www.frontiernet.net/~pschaaf/obw/misc.html")Here(/url) they are.

They are password protected.
They password will be e-mailed to everyone.
I might use this password on levels in the future.

If I forgot to e-mail it to anyone, let me know.

Hello all,
I will not be able to make levels for this world. I realize my time with this editor is fleeting. I am going to try
to finish my world (Extemperaneous) and bow out graciously, from this wonderful hobby. I know my creativity is not
unlimited, and I have other projects I need to work on. I would still be interested in working on the plot and other
things, however, you can turn my level editing duties over to someone more worthy.
I am deeply sorry, I am sure you can find a replacement. I look forward to playing you're world.

-Emperor Ent

I think we should think of a new title for OBW. We can still call it OBW, but by the time we're done, we should be used to the other title. How about "Ferazel's Quest" or something? "Xichra Strikes Back"? Any ideas?

------------------
Remember, this conversation never took place.

I think a name like "Ferazzel's Wand 2-Test of Courage" or something flashy like that.
Idea for a level (I don't have an editor or anything, so I just post ideas):

We have a big, intricate maze, so on and so forth, but then, at the beginning, on the wall of the first drop, make it breakable, so you can run straight through a passage with a lot of zichrons and we call it "Missoverestimation" I think it's kind of pointless, but with the Ideas you guys and girls come up with, you could doo some neat things with this idea.

Also, I don't get to post much, and I am literally sneaking on this webboard off my dad's computer, so don't get too P.O'd about it, O.K?

------------------
What is the problem with Windows? Haha! Everything!!!!
