For Henry

#1 Matan,

I was looking over the old youTube videos you made of my levels. I love them, but you are missing 'Oil Rig.' I would like to request a video of Oil Rig. You can download the level at the old MarbleBlast php site.

Thank,

solo.

#2 On the assumption I manage to sneak in a gem the way I want it to and pretty much get it (the run) more flawlessly than I ever had... Sub 1:30 on vid coming right up :)

Edit - W00T!!!

easier, safer and faster!

1:29.81 first actual 100% completion of it :P

I'll record it in the new few days or later on today :D

#3 Oil Rig (1:23.81s) & Structural Swirl (23.68s)

The first video was requested by Solo Hans while the second was sitting here for a while until Phil released his level today. Enjoy!

Oil Rig can be done sub 1:20 mins [maybe 1:15]. I made a mistake at the very end (~3 seconds and go figure why the hell did I jump) and the run preceding it could be improved by 4 seconds, especially in the start where you can get the 2nd gem 2 seconds faster and in the pipe section you could improve by 2 seconds as well. Also for kicks I want to add that I got this run on the first go after 5 hours of non-stop gameplay of C&C3: Kane's Wrath which I received today [it was released 5 hours beforehand], so this is really an achievement for me since it saves me tons of time :D

The song is Rain in the Night by Frank Klepacki and unfortunately I don't have the best version out there and I'm looking for the best one :(

#4 Thanks Matan! My favorite shortcut was when you capture both gems in the pipeline at the same time(upper and lower gems). Very clever. I knew I should have lowered the gold time on the level. LOL.

#5 Holy crap... Just watched the video and that is amazing!!!
I totally forgot about that level.
Well, really, I forgot about all my MBG levels.

One question: How'd you manage to convert it into MBP? I might want to include some of my better MBG levels in my new MBP set...

#6 For the record, I checked my old times and apparently 2:07.733 minutes was my previous best time before your request to do this video.


Edit: I just saw my 1:02 on A Day At The Beach. I wanna re-do it better looking @ castle PLUS sub-1 min. Would you mind?



Henry: it wasn't converted :P

#7 But that was most definitely MBP!
So what, you just put it in the custom folder and added the interiors? I couldn't seem to get that to work with my other levels...

#8 I took all the MBG interior folder from my MBG one into my MBP interior folder. Easy.

#9 Weird, I did that and the game crashed. I'll try it again...

#10 Did you have the MBG textures in the MBP interiors folder? I don't think it comes with them, but I also don't think that crashes the game...

#11 Yeah, I'm pretty sure I copied all of them. I'll figure it out eventually...

#12 If you want to redo 'A Day at the Beach,' be my guest.

#13 Consider it done (once my Main PC is back from repairs first). I've been practicing around and making another 'super huge vid' like the ones before but this time its literally huge :P

#14 Solo, I recorded ADATB, but I won't give you final time. However, you can see the high quality beginning of it..

Can't say bad quality on the castle anymore ^.^
