UPDATE!
So, as some of you guys may know, maybe not, but pretty obvious by my signature...that I have taken the responsibility as one of the lead programmers in marble blast elite. I just wanted to give a quick update on Nihahhat's promised marble blast elite demo 1.1 update. It is coming great, with a lot of bugs that have been ironed out, and not to mention that every level was retrimmed. There are just a few more fixes left, so expect the patch to be out soon!
@mbgaddict, as I have said, you won't be able to remove inversion floor, as that file is gone and scripts are split, and a few anti-hacks along the way come with that

Major bugfix: inversion floors are now fully fixed (thanks to meeeeee) This means, if you're pressing forwards and you enter an inversion floor, you will start going backwards. This allows for some funny back-and-forth, as well as for better gameplay.
Minor bugfix: inversion triggers will now "stack" so if you leave one InversionTrigger, you won't auto-revert.

@Rct thanks! Welcome back too by the way? 
@mbgaddict I'll try to get nihahhat to make up a post for me to post within the next few weeks, but i can't promise anything. However, all I will say is that there are quite a bit of new things in the game =)

Just tried the demo to the mod and love it! ![[image] [image]](http://www.freewebs.com/marbleblast2/laugh%5B1%5D.gif)
It did take me a bit of page changing to find the demo though. Can't you guys put everything on one post? I meant to say can't you put it all on one post for ease of access .
And last, do you guys have a forums? I'll help you guys make some levels if you want.

we don't have a forum, as every staff member is on msn. If you want to submit some in hopes of getting in, feel free. We would be glad to see your stuff!

Such enthusiasm!
Also, I already showed you level stuff to get into PR; does that qualify for me to be a level builder in Elite then?

From what I have heard from Jeff, you have to be approved by Mason and/or Gerson.

A message from Nihahhat:
Lately we've been discussing the quality and fun factor of our levels. In order to make this game something worthwhile, we need some help from those of you members that tried out the demo. I need to know what levels are too difficult, what challenges in these levels don't flow with the rest of the level, and which levels should be cut from the game. The levels will be modified accordingly. Thanks in advance. ~Nihahhat

I personally hate this white texture that is used as trim!. A normal texture like MBG's and MBP's would be better (Like some advanced levels).
Another thing that I don't like is the scenery. It reminds me MBP's spikes. I like levels like "Strategy Complex" and it doesn't even have scenery. It has awesome gameplay and it's fun.
New descriptions would be nice! Some levels are having aweful because they don't describe the level or give a hint, and the use bad grammar like "Dem" instead of "The". I can't spell english I admit.
Leves that I think should be cut from the game:
Wall Hits X: Well, this level is hard. It does not have something original, and it's not fun. It also has some misalignments on curves Also I don't like the description because it must describe the level and not saying that no-one made Wall-hit level on MBE.
Sky Path: I don't think colmesh is something that should be taught with a tutorial level. Also I don't like the look of that level! (Maybe It's the trim texture) but it reminds me tighthorpes.
Grassy Speedrun: I personaly don't like the gameplay of that level. When I hear "Speedrun" I guess this level will have fun because you will run and I like speed. These are just some grass slopes. I like the curve btw. Also that mix with the pink checker and the skybox reminds me that bad look of PR! (By the way I think that texture is made by me. I don't like it.
I dont have other notices for other levels!
NOTE: This is my personal opinion. I don't want to be offensive.

Don't worry, the level makers have completely retrimmed the "off" levels. And as the new graphic designer I have given the edge/trim graphics a complete revamp, so the levels should look a lot nicer now.

Here is a level comments from me, one of the MBElite level maker.
Novice's worst level : Requiem of teleports - Speediness - too hard for beginners (change the order of challenges), and more gems please - Requiem of teleports - better scenery Mediate's worst level : Crystal challenge - Overlapping Layers : too easy (more gems/challenge) - Crystal Challenge : better scenery, more challenge Advanced's wost level : Helix - Wall Hits X : level looks annoying with too much scenery, not original - Helix : the bounce and colmesh challenge needs to be replaced Elite's worst level : Structural Ascent - Structural Ascent : my section is too hard, needs more alignment and better scenery.
Gui : fix that "wtf dif font" on the options at controls. Skies : some of them aren't perfect (like in the wall hits x), i suggest to remove that sky.
And some of the pwnage times are too easy to beat.
Well, that's all my opinion on the game. Wish we could make it better for 1.1.

A message from Nihahhat:
Jeff and I had decided to get some serious work done today and possibly release the 1.1 update. However, when Jeff decided to play through the game and tried to spot anything that needed to be tweaked up, Jeff discovered that many game flies have gone missing. This includes missions, interiors, shapes, codes and whatnot.
Please be patient as we try our best to recover these missing files. This certainly wasn't a pleasant surprise. Don't worry, this situation will not affect the progress of the full version too much.

Just Wondering, when exactly did your files go missing? I ask this because a few days ago I lost some files in my dropbox folder.

Alright so since both Jeff and HiGuy are AWOL, we here at the Elite staff have been forced to prepare an incomplete release.
This would normally be a simple plan of action but apparently our staff build of the mod has encountered a serious error of some sort, and with both lead programmers out of the picture we are now forced to build an incomplete release around our demo version, which means we'll have to cut out a lot of the newer features we implemented recently.
I was really hoping this mod would make it to the end; I really didn't want it to have to come to this. Mason is really upset, and I don't blame him.

What kind of serious error? Maybe I could help?
I have a build from July I think which works fine, and includes a number of the new features, so maybe I could help out

Well I don't know the exact details myself, but from what I've experienced the game seems to crash right when a level begins. Right when the "READY?" graphics pop up after the marble lands on the start pad, everything freezes and then Elite crashes a couple of seconds later.

My version works fine (I played through a number of levels).
I can take a peek if you guys want but I don't have access to your build (if you could send me a .zip file it would be easier), but as said, I got a working build here from July without crashes, so you could add any levels, textures etc. without worry, but the codes we probably won't add.

Erm, didn't happen for me, mine didn't freeze. We'll have to keep playing with this, and just use the origional staff version. No need for matan's version anymore, if you can guess why

(I'm connected with my Wii, I can't give you any picture) I made a bomb texture. I also changed some sounds (all PowerUps SFX's except the tic-tac of the TM(I had MB crashes with the SA), tornadoes, fireworks, mines, duct fans, and trapdoors). I changed MBG sounds, but I will change rolling, the 4 bounces, OOB's, jumping and bumpers sounds. I will show you a vid about it. Hope you'll not get upset after this.

Nah its ok, and yes show me when you are done with it.
