Project Custom Power-ups (Teleport Released)
by Robot Marble · in Marble Blast · 12/06/2006 (12:31 pm) · 111 replies
I am Starting a Project of making new MBG powerups. I know how to do 95% of the programming required. If anyone wants to sign on and help me out I would Appreciate it. I need:
1. Someone who can Use a .DTS editor(Torque, Blender, ext.)
2. A concept Artist(Someone who Thinks Up New Power-ups)
3. Someone to record themselves saying the name of the power-up like they do in the game and create sound effects for the power-up.
4. Tester/ Level Maker. This person will test the powerups and make a levels modeled around use of the powerups.
I Will be doing the power-up scripting so the game reads the item as a power-up and organize everything.
Ideas of Powerups:
1. Teleport- Sends you to any other random teleport in the Mission DONE
2. (This could be your idea for a powerup!)

EDiT:Gah! you posted the .mis while I was typing. But I'm still not sure what I'm supposed to be programing, or if I just misunderstood. Could someone please clear this up for me?

If you create it in the .mis file, can you move it around with the editor? It sounds like I'm just having you repeat what you've already said, but the readme said you couldn't create the trigger with the editor. I'm confused. And what do you mean it will send you to the one you programed? What am I supposed to program?EDiT:Gah! you posted the .mis while I was typing.

"Once A great Mutant Robot/Marble who made a great new powerup and everyone was so excited that they didn't read the instuctions of installing it which the Great Marble/Robot made very clear. Just Play the Level Above. If you see the Green words Then you installed it correctly."
IT WORKS

Steps to Install:
1. Download from the top of this page
2. go into the install folder and take the triggers.cs file and put it in marble/server/scripts
3. It will say do you want to replace the file triggers.cs say Yes
4. Play the level posted above Your Marble willl start to fade and the words Teleporter Activated Stay Still will come up in a green box.
5. once you fade completly you will spawn over the finish line
6. Once all this happens you will log onto garagegames.com and tell Robot Marble that it works and your sorry for continually pestering him about this.
This really isn't to hard wait til I start making hazzerds and static shapes you will have to replace 3 or 4 files if you can't get this to work then I should just stop this project and as perishingflames said I have spent a load of time on this and I thought it would be really easy to install. All you have to do is ADD ONE FILE and a new generation of MBG will be born.
P.S. Matan I may take you up on your offer if noone can get it to work by tomorrow.
P.S.S. Has anyone gotton it to work yet?

Still doesn't work for me, and I know I did everything right. Are you absolutely sure you didn't change something elsewhere and forgot about it, so we don't have it, but you do? That's the only solution I can think of considering that you are the only one it works for.
