Marble Blast SuperStar [IN PROGRESS]

*sigh* *sigh* I know what ya'lls are probably thinkin': ANOTHER noob mod! And you know what, you're probably right! BUT I still would LIKE to post up some info and just, you know, well, IT'S A MOD so... ya anyways:

It's called Marbel Blast SuperStar. I started in December, 2010, and haven't gotten much done... I made new textures, did all the new music, made new sounds, Jeff (from MBO) made me some interiors for an interior test, blah blah blah... So Constructor isn't working so as of now I can't make levels until I get a new computer or something... So, uh, if anyone would like to atleast think about think about joining, just please let me know . 'Cause I need help before this mod ends up dying. I've worked months alone on it, and now I feel like it will die... So please! Help MBS rise up again!

Oh and just let me say, PABLO, I've read your mod-destroying (as they call it ) post about mods atleast 100 times, so please, no need to put it up .

Well, i'm looking foreward to it! 2 things. Have you planned any levels yet?

@RC - Yes. PLANNED them, like I said I can't make them . I've planned atleast the first 100 levels...

I think I could make some constructor interiors and some graphics, but currently I don't have enough time to do that .

I'm really sorry . . . I thought I had added enough effectiveness to that thread. I'll go back and try harder.

Oh my gosh LOL . (Please don't )

Reminds me of The Sims: Superstar expansion pack...

Good luck with your mod, suggestions are learn QuArK (use 6.6 beta 3 please) and if the mod does die, DO release everything you got, this will earn community respect a lot more than just dead mod and that's it.

Good luck with this mod! I hope you can get Constructor working again so that you can make levels (if all else fails, get QuArK if you're on Windows). Can you post a picture of one of your textures, just as a small preview? It would get people a lot more excited about this mod.

Yeah I can (when I get home from school .)... tho the textures still need work, but I think they look good for now . I'm starting with a rock/factory theme then moving into some others...

I'm glad you have a theme in mind. Bad mods start out without one.

With the mod name being Marble Blast SuperStar, shouldn't it be MBSS?

@Rokoshu - Ya I guess lol

In my mind, what you said right there indicates that your mod already has a better chance of survival than around 90% of past failed mods. The fact that you understand what you are trying to accomplish (as opposed to most mod-starters) earns you a lot of my respect.

I wish the best of luck to your mod.

@joey, have i ever gave u your ultimate time code for mbs? If i did not, i am extremely sorry, i will have it tweaked up and ready by Saturday.

Any other coding questions, you know who to come to

@Jeff No I don't believe... If you mean about the code for adding new times... If that's what you're talking about, don't worry about getting it! I figured out how to do it

ya, thats what i am talking about, you know, in game.cs

Good luck with your mod.

normally I say things you(or anybody) will need for the mod, but you planned it first and that give more chances to a success

Good luck!

Good luck with your mod!

Good luck

dont worry about this kid, hes organized and very well planned out, best of luck to u joey. If you ever need anything, just let Jeffy know and he will most likely do it for ya

Hey Jeff (or any other modder) do you think it would spoil anything if I gave out some new features I'm expecting in this mod like, in this thread for the public??? Or should I just keep it to myself...

dont say anything yet.

Well I don't think some general specs will do any harm :

Levels: 300 (Don't worry. They're ALL being planned )
Sequence: This is not your average mod set up like MBG, MBP, MBA or any of those... It's going to be where everything is in a world sequence. So like, complete the levels in THIS world to get to THAT world, etc. Yeah so that's why there are so many levels! There are 15 realms (20 levels each), hence 15 different themes. The first theme is a factory/rock-type theme. The second is the ocean (like in MBP). And I'll leave it at that .

So I know some of you guys might be thinking, 300 levels?! This will be a very boring mod... But NO! No it won't! You see, there are going to be MANY new features (which won't be revealed at this time), so there needs to be many new levels! And also, these 300 levels are all being planned... so don't worry! Currently I think I've got 190-200 of the levels planned . I guess that's about all I have to say for now!

I know you said how you've planned them out, but the thing is, there may be new features, but will the levels be fun to play? Hope you can show some pictures, that sounds great(the ideas for the worlds). Also, is Jeff coding for you, or are you doing it yourself?

1) The levels I've planned have new and original ideas... But also, ofcourse, there are lots of obstacle-course-like levels, too...

2) Well... In a sense, yes. But techincally, no. Jeff is helping me with coding but isn't actually a mod coder...

EDIT: 3) (about the pics) I really can't atm because I would need atleast one or two textures from each realm and a skybox. But don't worry. When some of that stuff is made you'd better believe I'll put it up here!

*sorry for the double-post but this is useful*

The attachment shows MBG's Twisting the Night Away in a different texture I made for MBSS. It's a factory-like texture (or atleast suppossed to be... It could be a rock one, too. but idk), so, uh, just tell me how you like it! I can also post the other textures in levels, too...

Oh, and don't mind the other changes in the photo such as the 0 in the clock and gems... There's a lot under construction and that's definitely not going to stay!

Please tell me this isn't just a gfx mod...

It is not a gfx mod. But textures come BEFORE levels...
