I keep rollin rollin rollin ----------------- (NEW)-Finished level #42 (Status)-OK, OBW I have good news and bad news. The good news (for you) is that I just finished level 42 but there is a spot where the game crashes when Ferazel gets to it. This was a repeating problem which threatened to make me scrap the level. The bad news (for you) is that this problem was solved by dividing the level in two so: (NEW)-Finished level #51 brining my level count to 43 (Status)-Upgraded to Development Version 0.1.2 upon completing the 17 trials of Xichra (Status)-Will open discussion fourm at my webboard once my levels enter Alpha Testing.
------------------ Dr. Tall says: Taller is Better
Please don't hurt me but...level 51 kept crashing as well but the problem was resolved when I split that level in two. ---------------------- (NEW)-Finished level 52 bringing my level count to 44
I've never really played the original FW so when I installed the Xichra's Lair level into my set it was the first time I'd seen Xichra. She's quite impressive. I hear that you're supposed to kill her by shooting seeds into the cannons. Where, in the original game, does Ferazel get enough fire seeds to kill her? I gave myself about 40 and I ran out during wave 2 (I wasted about fifteen trying to figure out how to hit her). And do Zirdium Seeds do twice the damage to Xichra as fire seeds do? --------------------- (NEW)-Finished Level 43 brining my count to 45 (NEW)-Finihsed level 44 brining my count to 46

I always used ziridium seeds. After you rescue Dimbo from the Labyrinth, Nimbo will hook you up with 99 fire and ziridium seeds.

What would you say if I said that I finished all my levels and have started added scenery? Would you call me a liar? If so, you'd be right I don't have much to report: -------------------- (Status)-I plan on opening my webboard for Ferazel discussion on June 1st. When the time comes, that is where I will also do my beta testing reports. The webboard itself is already up and running but you'll have to crack my password to post or read. I will reveal the password to my beta testers (who are NOT selected yet and don't tell me you want to be one because frankly I don't give a :frown: :mad: just yet) so they may post there exclusively, but on June 1st the board will be open to all for general discussion.
Actually, I think I'm going to move the date back to the 22nd of May for the public opening on my board. The 22nd seems like an odd day to all of you but don't I won't forget it.
OBW members, bow to your master. No, not I but Ubi Soft, makers of Myst III: Exile ------------------- (Status)-Dr Tall Land HALTED. No further progress* will be made until I am no longer obsessed with Myst III.
*If progress is not none, than it will most likely be very minimal.
Even though no one is reading this, I will persist in updating to spite OBW ---------------- (Status)-Dr Tall Land REACTIVATED progress will resume tomorrow on level creation. I finished Myst III: Exile tonight, it was a very good game; difficult but I did not need to use a player's guide or any such rubbish.
(Status)-Tomorrow is the 22nd, not only my 3 month anniversary with my girlfriend but also the public opening of my webboard. IMPORTANT: The general access password is: looloooloo This is NOT the password for the beta testing area, try it if you want to waste your time. (url="http://"http://pub51.ezboard.com/bdrtallland")This is a link to my webboard.(/url) Please do not abuse the webboard, I got in very serious trouble last time I tried using a webboard and I will not have that happen again, you will be banned for anything out of hand. Consider the Ambrosia webboards' rules the same as mine, don't do anything at my webboard you would not do here.

Why does it have an ad that says, "Bush or Chimp? You decide."

If you click the link you'll find the funniest web site ever. I don't really know why I put that on my webboard....
Myst III kinda fried my brain and it's taken awhile to get back on track but now I'll keep spitting out levels for OBW to enjoy --------------------- (NEW)-Finished level #45 count=47 (NEW)-Finished level #46 count=48 (Note)-Remember, my webboard is now open for public use; the link is two or so posts above.

Myst 3 is soooooooooooooo cool!!!!! I played it at a friend's house 4 several hours. I played the age with all of the wierd flowers and eventually got stuck in the voltaic age. I can't wait to get the game myself. I am currently low on funds :frown: and am saving for the Collector's Edition.
------------------ Chack out my website:(url="http://"http://wwwlight.aftran.com")light.aftran.com(/url) for Ferazel levels,status on my Ares plgin, and more.

51 levels!! One Big World should be renamed to One Somewhat big World, nad yours should be called One huge World. How many levels are you gonna have? I'm currently downloading your preview.
My set will have 52 levels upon its completion. 51 of which are already created. I will make the last level at the very end of development.
Keep in mind Quality > Quantity
Now while that number seems quite large, it's becuase my levels are not quite as complex as the game's original levels. My levels were once described by one of my friends as "kind of liner".
