Very nice levels Threefolder! I'm surprised you haven't gotten any feedback yet on these. Don't take it as a sign that people don't like your levels. Looking forward to seeing your future developments in level building.

I don't know if this is MBP 1.2's fault, or yours, but I put the missions and interiors into the exact places denoted by the info file, and all of your levels are either missing interiors or not loading.

Also, it would really help if the author was the same, and you included pictures.

They were probably lbinteriors. I change those so often it's not even funny.

Also, threefolder, I'm really enjoying the Tower Challenge. Not the most original level but it's very fun to play

I am not going to literally go through six files, search out the faulty file-paths, change them, and re-save them all as .mis. Furthermore, the fact that they remain unfixed displays a huge lack of care about your work.

He wasn't being mean. If people are having trouble installing your levels, you should do everything in your power to try and fix the problem, instead of blowing them off and telling them to shut up. I'm not sure if I want to try your levels now after finding out how you treat people who play them.

I don't think its his fault at all, and rather it is nobody. Threefolder can't help it if you're lazy to change it yourself. He made them on Windows which uses MARBLE folder. Mac uses Platinum folder. You'll have to wait for CLA to fix things up, nobody.

Likewise, you should have a program for mac to change a million of files at once. I know I have it on windows (heavily used it, excellent program), we call it grepWin. Linux calls it grep.

Nobody, get off your ass and just change the files. You have no idea how many times I have done this in compiling the level packs... in the last week alone, I have changed over 500 levels for compatibility. Literally.

When windows is transitioned to 1.20, we won't have this issue but for now there is a way to get compatibility for everyone. Find/replace
Code:interiorResource = marble/data
with
Code:interiorResource = $usermods @ /data
to make everybody happy. This is what I am doing in the monthly packs and CLA for now (it could be a while for win 1.20) so if you download levels from there, it will all be working.


Level creators: It wouldn't hurt if you did that before releasing levels if they contain moving platforms. Saves me the trouble and saves lazy people like nobody from having fits.

Small review by me

Level editing was good. I was suprized that you even included custom soundtrack witch was fairly well made. I think level maybe was too short but at least it let me finish level pretty quickly.
My best was 13.45 so i think you didint tested level enough even tough i went full path and didnt used any shortcuts ( I guess you forgot to use diagonal movement).
Oh and i suggest you to next time put your interiors in ''interiors'' folder instead of ''interiors_MBP'' since you used your own bouncy texture witch had same name as original MBP's texture and i spent 3 minutes finding right place for thouse interiors.
All i can say your level was Fairly well done.

Looking forward to your levels.

Sandstone Climb, RGM, and the one with all the diamonds, are easy 8-9/10 reviews from me. Sandstone reminds me of the Choco Climb made by Phil, which is good. RGM is fun for replay value/finding shortcuts. And the one with the gems is awesome.

Your ordeal link is broken, so I cannot test it.

Finally, while the tower challenge looks awesome, it's very annoying to play because the bumps are sized as your marble falls off incredibly easily.

I fixed the interiors_mbp thing, DON'T DO THAT. Interiors never belong there.

In your large pack (first level pack), all of the levels are broken. Why are all the interiors missing? It seems like you named every single interior after a preexisting one, and because I don't feel like replacing current CLA interiors, the levels now are completely broken.

Don't take this as an insult, but I playtested a couple of your levels in a copy of MBP, and I'll review the Shock Absorber one, as an example for the rest. When I speak generally, I am referring mainly to your older levels, and most of the errors have been eliminated or diminished.


Irritating Challenges

In levels, a challenge can be created by adding a scenario which the player is required to use incredible balance or precicion skills, to the point that it becomes annoying. Most of these are very cheap to create, and not fun to play. Also, another example of this is your habit of putting gems off the edge of a level, where you have to align the marble just right so you snag the hitbox of the gem, and not lose your balance. This is obviously intentional, but because it's very cheap to make, but it ruins the flow of a level, I would ask you to refrain from doing this.

Playtesting and Shortcuts

I love shortcuts, but when a level has so many that the point is obscured, it becomes very weak. Also, the irritating incongruencies such as going OOB while falling to the white gem platform could be easily eliminated by playtesting. The best way to playtest is either playing a level many different ways, and asking a couple people over MSN/PM to test out your level before release. I would be happy to playtest, if you wanted me to. This way, fresh eyes can correct flaws and add other things to your level, and people are more satisfied. Finally, this would remove a lot of the shortcuts, as people of higher skill would find them easier. There's probably two more shortcuts in that level that I missed that Matan would find.

Aesthetics

While it truly doesn't affect gameplay, having more professional style or fixing misalignments usually garners a higher rating, because most reviewers are at least subliminally affected by a sloppy build. I'll give you a couple tips on how to fix some of the most common errors, and at least the ones I see in this level.


Use the texture grid to align platforms. For example, as soon as the player starts, they are faced with a green platform that seems to be virtually duct-taped on, and none of the faces match. Make sure the lines between textures match, and objects do not overlap.
Level Editor alignment. All of the gems on the white platform are misaligned. Firstly, they are either raised too much or sunk into the floor, which is occasionally irritating, requiring the player to jump to reach the gem. Also, they can be rotated so the points face downwards, which would look a lot better. Finally, I would ask why the finish here sign is where it is. I would assume that you left it from the template, which is a simple mistake, but sometimes this could be confusing.

Awesome. If you don't have CLA, you should download it, tons of fun levels, and that way you could check if you have any naming issues.
