Project Revolution [CANCELED]

amazing!

@mbgaddict collision works on every axis, so they could jump on top of each other

But it would require extreme precision, thus making it hard to actually complete a tutorial level where the marbles are supposed to jump on each other in sub 1.00.00

Jumping on each other is totally supported, mbgaddict, and you can get pretty precise hits without much difficulty. That co-op level idea sounds interesting... Will think about

Alright then try and test it, there is no harm in trying.

[PROJECT REVOLUTION: DEAD]

Will a staff member or HiGuy change the name of the title please? Thanks.

Now, I have to say a few things to why this is dead.

1. PR was starting to suck..badly. the levels were *not* that good, and were not that impressive.
2. If we keep waiting for pr to maybe get better, it means more waiting on multiplayer code for MBG / other mods.
3. I personally feel that this is the right thing for the community. Pr was really starting to suck. Mostly everybody (including myself and HiGuy) were becoming REALLY LAZY at the game. I kind of felt that this was unfair to the marble blasting community, to make you guys wait for average levels and average graphics while instead everybody could be having a blast challenging each other on marble blast gold / other mods.

Now, I hope that nobody don't want to kill me or anything for making this dead. HOWEVER. I HAVE SOME GOOD NEWS STILL.

Just because PR is dead DOES NOT mean that HiGuy and myself won't finish Multiplayer.

We both promised at least giving the community a working Multiplayer code. We will be working on that shortly, and hopefully releasing the hack package version of it to the community sometime during the Summer (United states seasons trololol). We did promise it, and we are not going to break that.

Now, as for myself, this does not mean that I will be leaving the community anytime soon just because PR will be dead either, (which i did allude to the past), as I don't actually plan to leave for a long time.

I have learned a lot during this process of mod making. I know one thing for sure, which is that I will most likely not lead modifications anymore in marble blast. It was fun while it lasted, but being a leader is a tough responsibility.

As for PR itself, I have chosen to NOT release any content. Staff, if you choose to keep a copy of the game you may, but do not release any content to anybody without my permission. All code is still respectively copyrighted to HiGuy and myself.

Now, back to the hax package. There is a 99.99999% chance that it will be in .dso format, as I do not want to release the source to our hard work on multiplayer.

I hope you all understand, sorry if I disappointed anyone, I feel that this is the best thing to do at this point.

Thanks for reading, happy blasting, and have a good weekend,

Jeff Hutchinson & the PR Staff

Sorry to hear, but I'm glad you're still releasing multiplayer. Honestly, I think people were far more excited about that than about the levels in PR.

thats what i thought too, exactly. Thanks Pablo, its good to see that one person isn't going to slice my neck off trololol.

Edit: thanks for changing the name too!

I won't slit your throat, rub your blood all over my hands and face, and then... *stops there*

So yes, we will continue to work on multiplayer support as before, but the whole mod thing has broken apart. The various parts of PR will be released in groups as mod-mods (meaning mods for your mods) or packages for the general public to install and use in any mod.

Look forward to the first modmod release, coming soon!

I had to

Why don't you just make it open to everyone; anyone who wants to submit a level or an idea or a marble eg can. Make it more of a community mod rather than a selected staff one.

Just make custom levels when it's released.

MP will be .dso'd for mod users, but we have something called data integrity. I don't want to sound rude, but this took a long time to do. Besides, what if Pr's features go into other mods...

Community projects are almost always fail.

speaking of community projects failing, i am assuming that the golfcourse CGL is dead too, which proves even more what pablo said.

Yay multiplayer is on the way!
Edit: Will mp have gem hunt mode?

Sad news for the community.
I hope you had fun making this, and I just know multiplayer will be awesome!
Will the previous PR level builders become custom level makers now?

@Ajdallas, i hope they continue to make customs!

We did have a blast for a while, but towards the end, especially me, i kinda dreaded at the sight of it lol.

We might finally have some activity now!

Minimal, if any mbgaddict, and yes, it will have Gem hunt mode in it

ME GOOFING OFF IN PR 1 MONTH AGO DERP

so from what I understand Project Revolution is just giving out what they have to the community. Right or am I wrong? And if so, I like the idea.

No, we are giving parts of it. So you are right and wrong. This is because some things will be going to other mods.

Like what things?

...Why would I release the details, its called a secret . All I can say is that its some awesome super coolio stuff that HiGuy and I both made.

Alrighty then! Coolio it is.

When are these mod mods all going to be released?

Sometime over the summer most likely.

It was my understanding that the non-MP part of the project was abandoned a long time ago... I'm glad that you're only working on MP though; MP is the only thing worth working on at this point.

Well, it took me a long time to realize this. ._. Anyways...

I sorry that it had to end this way. Lamp and I were both hoping, waiting, and wishing for PR to come out. I wish you good luck finishing the hack package.

Don't completely scrap PR keep it, one day you may be very happy to still have it. Random side note: Is there a possibility that select users get the .cs version

@Lamp47, only PR current staff gets the source code, and we asked each of them to not release it. So, the pubic will not get the full source.

Thanks for your concerns/posts.
