Take-Off: Destiny of Alderaan 2: The Sole Jedi

[Nikumubeki]

It's been 9 years since TODOA (and this "And this is the final release TODOA will have." statement), so here's something to do a commemoration for that:



I have submitted my latest JK level, Take-Off: Destiny of Alderaan 2: The Sole Jedi (aka T-O:DOA 2: The Sole Jedi) to Brian for The Massassi Temple: Levels/Mods section. You may already be half-aware of the first installment, Take-Off: Destiny of Alderaan from December 2014/February 2016.

I know, the rumors are true - there actually is a Massassi.net, not just forums.massassi.net/vb3/.

As the last Jedi on Alderaan, eliminate the Imperials in the area to escape the planet before its destruction.

- 30 seconds of gameplay
- Turrets will fire at you

And now, one of those rare moments of dropping the FGR character for a brief moment: I hate JK editing. There's no point in making anything fancier than this (and in retrospect, not even this) even for one's own amusement because there is nothing to amuse oneself in any of this. This better have been the last time I edited JK in any capacity - and yes, that is one of those "haven't you died every year since your first death announcement in 2013" type of FGR statements, but still.

(Then again, at least I didn't spend 2200 € on the assets for this one, that one still stings)

There's a forums.massassi.net/vb3/?

Forget it, Nikumubeki. JK editing is in our blood, like some sort of blood-borne parasite. Soon you will get The Itch and have no choice but to open JED once more.

[bradsh]

the absolute madman

How will you explain to your new child that these boxy shapes are suppose to represent people?

[Nikumubeki]

Well, here's the gameplay video since the level hasn't been uploaded yet.

(Come to think of it, I'm gonna have to update the FGR Obituary to read 2001-2019 when the level gets uploaded, even though it was finished last year. Dang!)

[Brian]

I'm back. I'll try to get this posted tomorrow morning.

[Nikumubeki]

Cheers, man!

My kids play Minecraft. Compared to that nonsense JK is photorealistic.

[Brian]

It's on my list. Maybe I can get it done tonight.

[Nikumubeki]

Z-class FGR levels can wait, removing the latest approved member (https://forums.massassi.net/vb3/memb...301769-mulemax) courtesy of the porn site link in his profile should precede it on the list

[Impi]

A porn site link? This is outrageous! I must investigate immediately! Uh, so that this doesn't happen on my private form with closed registration.

[saberopus]

Imagine, in 2019,

[Nikumubeki]

I also can't help but notice that right after I made that "btw, that profile links to a porn site" post, forum activity just stopped.

Hmm...

[Reid]

There's porn on the INTERNET????!?

[Reverend Jones]

Yes

(NSFW?)

[Brian]

Thanks for pointing it out (and Wookie06 for emailing me about it). I deleted the user. My bad on approving that one. User didn't show up in the anti-spam service I have been using; I'm not sure if the profile link was there when I approved but I'll start checking those as well.

[Brian]

I'm really sorry for the delay on this, but it's up now. Level info page with download link: https://www.massassi.net/levels/files/3136.shtml

Plus it's on the main page in the news: http://www.massassi.net/

[Nikumubeki]

No problem, thanks for the upload!

And now, what with the release of T-O:DOA 2 and Patch 1.7 of DXN, this should be the final death of FGR. It goddamn better well be.

[Krokodile]

Good job everyone!

[saberopus]

We did it! Alright gang, let's all brainstorm a replacement post for FGR since this one's expired.

:thniking:

[SMLiberator]

I'm actually offended by how good you are with jed/zed/whatever it's called these days

[Nikumubeki]

Not "are", but "were"! Let's try to make this death stick, okay?

Also thanks to ANL for playing the level and commenting on it.

[Goit]

Reminds me of Battle on the Outer Rim part 3

[Thrawn[numbarz]]

No problem, thanks for the upload!

But...have you seen how good Trenchbroom is these days?

[Nikumubeki]

I vaguely remember liking that one the most out of the three, Goit... but that might have been Warzone instead. Maybe both series?

But...have you seen how good Trenchbroom is these days?

HISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS *claws the air*

(And I do remember what happened the last time you, GBK and saberopus recommended editing something to me!)


Regardless, with the lid of my coffin hopefully remaining sealed for good, I'm glad that this is the legacy of FGR:

[Nikumubeki]

Also, this figure reminds me of all the comments that TODOA got:



https://www.amazon.co.uk/Star-Wars-E...th+vader+black

Stuff like "OMG why would Darth Vader need guns!?".

(The answer of course being that you don't need to use the guns in TODOA, but you can if you want to. Boh!)

[Jon`C]

According to Rogue One, if Darth Vader had a gun then the original Death Star wouldn’t have been destroyed.

[Reid]

Star Wars has serious worldbuilding and a logical set of principles and totally isn't a random patchwork of space magic in WWII Nazi Germany.

[Jon`C]

Darth Vader was definitely planned to be Luke Skywalkers father, just like how Luke and Leia were definitely planned to be twins instead of a slipshod attempt to hack an ESB style reveal into its sequel, and Darth Vader was definitely planned to be a The Chosen One instead of just the one racist Jedi

[Reid]

[Nikumubeki]

Definitely lacks the pizazz of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K_Foun...a_Million_Quid

[Nikumubeki]

Also, Brian, I guess the copyright info on Massassi.net "© Copyright 1998-2016 Brian E. Lozier and Contributors" should be updated to © Copyright 1998-2019 Brian E. Lozier and Contributors.

[Nikumubeki]

While at it, I guess you could also remove the 2010 version of TODOA still lurking in this directory as TODOASP.rar.



(No page since June 2013 has actually linked to it)

[saberopus]

dis like when i'm at my parent's house and i'm in the deep recesses of the attic digging through photo albums telling them they should remove specific pictures of me that are buried there that no one can even see

[SMLiberator]

has anyone tried jkgr yet?

[Goit]

I vaguely remember liking that one the most out of the three, Goit... but that might have been Warzone instead. Maybe both series?

Haha you're not thinking of the same one then!

Pretty sure the editor was leaving the community so released part 3 to wrap up the trilogy.

It was such a disappointment after part 2 which had the best pipe work in any custom JK/MOTS level. Pretty sure you break into a facility coming through a toilet too.

But yes. Read into that what you will

[Brian]

Nikumubeki can you tell me what I'm doing wrong? I found the blue key, went back across the courtyard, through the door, up the elevator. At the top a guy shoots at me, I shoot at him, and then an "objective completed" sound plays, an animation of the crow plays, where it seems to be flying away, and then it warps me back to the courtyard where the crow is back there, and it appears that the entire level has started over. Am I doing something wrong?

[Steven]

Am I doing something wrong?

yeah you're playing todoa2
