partsunknown109 is my Gamertag. I forget what my Wii code is because I don't play multiplayer on the Wii all that often.

I usually play Halo (Reach, Halo 3, and ODST) on Live, but I'll probably add anybody if you guys just want to chat or whatever.

I feel so dumb. I totally missed both of those on my first playthrough, but I played it again today and found both of those upgrades. Ridley and Mother Brain would have been a lot easier if I had known a charge beam existed. This whole time I thought you just had to aim your super missiles and missiles very carefully to beat those guys.

Well I'm not really sure where to begin when it comes to explaining this sort of thing. I guess what it comes down to is what exactly you're trying to make an NPC do with the action scripts.

As far as making them work with event scripts, you don't even need to do that if you don't want to. You can make an NPC do anything using just the event script itself, which is what I always do. Although, I suppose using action scripts would be a good idea if you're running out of space in your event scripts... but I digress.

Like I said, it would be easier to help if I new what it was you're having problems with. What are you trying to do but can't seem to figure out?

The Spring Ball just lets you jump while in the morph ball. But as far as I can tell, it's not required for anything. The only time I ever actually needed to use it was to escape the room you find it in in the first place.

The fuck? I could have sworn you kicked my sorry ass on Reach a few days back in Team Slayer. I'm really trying not to ragequit when I play this game, I really am.

Sweet, the more the merrier.

Do you guys play any forge maps? I made a few that I'd eventually like to submit to Achievement Hunter.


I love a good forge map. I've made a few myself. I actually made some half-way decent maps based on the Halo CE maps Assault on the Control Room and 343 Guilty Spark that work all right.

If I played you before, I don't remember. And I think I would've recognized your Gamertag if I ever saw it. I think I might have played against Googie once before though.

I've been here over 2 years now and I have yet to hear of what they're for. What do they do? Was there originally an option for people to fight each other? What was the purpose?
Just curious.

I don't think I've 100%'d Yoshi's Island either. I know I came close though. I think World 5-bonus is what kept me from finishing though. Stupid Kamek and your invincible dive-bombing of doom. Why can't Yoshi's Helicopter mode come with heat-seeking missiles or something?

The board has an RPG battle system; it just never left alpha and so is not trivially accessible to the regular user.

One day, perhaps, something more might be made out of it.


Interesting... Would the battles actually have some kind of prize for a winner or would it strictly be for fun?

Posted by blackhole89
Apart from that, some items do have special effects that are of some relevance in everyday board usage...

Even more interesting... But judging by the mysterious ellipsis, I'm guessing that's all the info I'm going to get out of you, huh?

05:01:15 blackhole89's line count: 227786 - Rank 12/33058 - Next: 6637 Prev: 1419

...and ranked fourth for postcount. I am very tempted to calculate a ranking by total number of words rather than posts and/or F-K level...


But that would just promote ridiculously long and unnecessary posts. As it stands now, if someone wants to increase their rank, they just have to post random stuff, but the posts are generally small and manageable. And if someone were to spam a bunch of empty posts and threads, they'd probably get modded quickly. But the solution you're proposing would just make people post very long and difficult to read posts with no real substance to them. No one likes to read walls of texts. You see, even now I'm not really adding much to the conversation at this point. I'm simply rambling on and on to make a point, but if people actually did this, moderators probably wouldn't take the time to read them and see if they were actually posting something valuable. As such, the board would be filled with pointless posts just like this one.

...but I have no idea what the F-K thing is.

You could always just make the prize more coins and experience or something simple. I guess it's really not a big deal, but it's just one small feature to add that might bring a tiny bit more life to this place.

I don't suppose anyone would be willing to share what items actually change stuff, would they?

...which is why I linked its Wikipedia page. Very roughly speaking, it is supposed to be a measure of what level of education the reader needs to have attained to deal with the sesquipedalian loquaciousness of a given text.

And well, you could argue in a similar way that a postcount-based regime encourages pointless posting and/or does not acknowledge scarce, but quality posting to the same degree as it acknowledges frequent empty smalltalk... but then, given the prerequisite laziness of anyone ever getting involved with the board code, it's quite unlikely we ever would get such an elaborate scheme anyway.


Yes, you linked the wiki page, but what did I just say before? No one has the patience to read walls of text. At least not me. I'm a 20 year old kid with the attention span of a... look, a pine cone! /bad joke
Anyway, that page was way to wordy.

I just read the summary text and understood what it was right away... only a paragraph or so to read.
There's "tl;dr" and then there's just outright unabridged laziness.


Unfortunately, "outright unabridged laziness" was my nick name in High School.
And I'm just fooling around anyway. I can read.

I was doing some very minor exploring with this 6th character idea and I made some half-way interesting discoveries, although I don't know if anyone will find them helpful.

First off, each character has 6 slots for various animations, with the exception of Mario because he has the most stuff to do. He gets 7. Normally, most things only get 1 slot for all their animations and molds. The characters in this game have a lot of stuff to do, so they get 6 slots. These 6 animation slots go in order by character. First is Mario, then Toadstool, Bowser, Mallow, and Geno.

In the X-button menu, the standing still, facing forward animation is loaded for each character, which is in each character's 1st animation slot, sequence # 10. (sorry if I'm using weird, fake terminology, but this is what I've always referred to them as.)

When you try to add a 6th character, in the X-button menu it loads the 1st slot and 10th animation right after Geno, which is the slot for the Hammer weapon, animation #10, which doesn't exist, hence the messed up graphic.

I also looked at the attack animation you mentioned. Every weapon has an animation script attached to it, labeled 0-35. Each character's unarmed attack animation is located near the beginning. 0 is Mario's unarmed attack, 1 is Toadstool, 2 is Bowser, 3 Mallow, and 4 for Geno. When you try to add a 6th character, they're unarmed attack by default becomes the weapon in slot 5, which is the Hammer weapon. So that helps explain that.

Like I said, I don't know if this info is helpful in any way, it's just some stuff I found out.
Either way, I wish you luck in your journey to get us a 6th character.

This certainly sounds interesting, but I have never played Kingdom Hearts, so I don't what Critical Mode will be like in terms of difficulty. So you're saying leveling up doesn't help in any way, except for 10, 20 and 30? Or are you saying you just don't get HP until those levels? Either way, it does sound challenging. Just be sure to strike a good balance between being really hard and being possible. I've played hacks before that literally come to down to being lucky in battle, which is never very fun for me.
