If you thought the name Timely Ascent sounded familiar, well, you're right. I have decided to do my own MBU conversion for MBP, for the level Timely Ascent.

I will try to replicate it as faithfully as I can without using QuArk. The level is of intermediate challenge and should be fun to play. At least I hope it is.

I will start this level very soon. (I hope.)

I wish you would tell me how to make moving platforms in quark!

You can export .maps with blender and then have someone with QuArK export them. Also Constructer will most likelly cost money just like everything GG

Constructor: $50-80. Blender's MAP exporter sucks, you can't add textures any easyer than with dts shapes. And you still need a PC.

No matter the price, I'm just going to get Constructor as soon as it gets out. btw, did you notice Matt updated his blog? There's also a thread he linked us to, so there's some progress to look at.

It's like QuArK being made by garagegames, only it will be a lot better.

Back on topic...*cough*

I have started planning out the level conversion. I will start building it tomorrow and it should be done (hopefully) by early next week.

I hope you like it.

Good news! Timely Ascent is now COMPLETED!

This level will be released tomorrow. I will test to make sure every route, normal to Ultimate Time, is possible, and also to make sure there are no mistakes or misalignments. Also thanks to Matan for helping me with the custom moving platforms.

Par Time: 30.00
Platinum Time: 12.00
Ultimate Time: 4.00 to 5.00 (undecided yet)
MY BEST TIME: 3.454

There are no gems, and all the times listed above are possible. It should be a fun, intermediate challenge for all players. I hope you enjoy it!

Looking forwards to it. Did you fix the marble gets stuck in interiors?

RELEASED!!

Get it at the ftp under Andrew Sears and download the TimelyAscent.zip folder. Make sure to place the mbp_MPtemplate 1.dif directly into the interiors folder. You will need this for the moving platforms.

Enjoy! And please comment!

Excellent level! 2.46 best time (best catch @ 2.38).

However, you can still get stuck in a wall but it's a minor
