cool map- www.thewayoftheninja.org/nv2.html?l=36440 Small chamber by Thomnikka -I felt a bit odd when while starting out, I went to the left jump-pad that bounces you into the mines rather than the right one which bounces you into the gold :s

Barely equaled yougotPWND's 0. Barely! Is he a legal player? One of the most mysterious players whose playing skills varies greatly from map to map.
Or maybe i don't understand how to highscore it... I pressed left button while jumping which slowed me down a lot. Maybe it is possible to do it without pressing it.

http://www.thewayoftheninja.org/nv2.html?l=17452 ["Untitled" CMPunk]
Taken. I tried to take it a month or even more before and gave it loads of effort with no result. Today took it within few tries.

cmpunks map -i can imagine those maps can be quite tricky in the same way that that QR code was eh :) (I aint gonna play it in web-browser)


i still think that no one is a cheater of Nv2 except for cris=ascheriit who maybe has something wrong with his computer lollllll


On the day that the map by me which I care about made it into the popular section after a long while, which prompted me to run it better.. I think I might have a go again at Panstromek's More circles -which didnt last in the popular section at all. Why? can some of you guys rate it back up if you like it.. what do you think about it?

[thejumper£#!]

Apparently I have some magical magnet that allows me to take pieces of gold which are far apart from me:

I knew there was a huge gap that still lets you take the gold, but in N v1.4 it was not that big.

That was AGD at the end haha. Level is "muddy river" by James.

Dooon't lie.
What "some magical magnet"?
I KNOW THE TRUTH...


Your ninja did not cut his toenails. Yes, the toenails are the key to take the gold....

:D

Lol i am only at 3 frames, reading the title of the level we must be a cheater!

Eddy you use some tool to take those screenshoot?

Oh I use the Screencap/Print screen key, its usually labeled as Print Scrn, Prnt Scrn, Prt Scn, Prt Scr, Prt Sc or something like that on english keyboards. ImprPant or ImpPant on spanish ones like mine. After that you will have to copy the pic to some program, I tend to just copy it on MSPaint which is easy to open, and then just save the image.

[james_S]

ok at the risk of sounding like a nutter (lol), the N-ninja has the ability to move itself in a poltergeist kind of way, because it can move side to side in the air and can extend the height of its jumps. (The only reason why the ninja cant slow its falls is that it'd be hard for the player to send the command) So it makes sense to me that this ability can be used to attract gold =) And it must help wallsliding also.

Very nice to see such precision, seemingly perfect run by you Jumper but still 3 whole frames difference on a short map like that

No, i know print screen key (in italian: stamp), I was talking about that is not easy to press the button at the right time, to get the screenshoot of the frame that interests you. I thought you had some tools to see the replay frame by frame.

Now is taken, 12829, +6 from danelr... :) I think it can still be improved.

this is zoomed, maybe it is the first foot what is ahead that takes the previous gold:

[EddyMataGallos]

Ah no haha, you just have to press at the right time. But if you check my demo, even the first foot is at the height of the top row of gold, see:


Its crazy to think that I took all the bottom row by going that high.
So yeah, I own the fucking gold magnet!

[thejumper£#!]

Ahahah now i see, very magnetic.

[james_S]

Im in the action too now on that.

Check it out, I stacked 55 block gates on top of each and the result is a powerful boost when they activate in the space that the ninja is occupying

It's outfit isn't something outstanding but the gameplay is very cool. Pretty easy, fast and nice simultaneously.

cmpunks map -i can imagine those maps can be quite tricky in the same way that that QR code was eh :) (I aint gonna play it in web-browser)

It can be easily found by the author. Smt like 3'rd page from the very beginning. Much easier than QR code map :) . It's all about the cleanliness of the last few jumps.

There are a lot of cheaters. E.g. Johan1996 (80% sure), mnst (100% sure), marklar22 (90% sure) and some others. I haven't seen them for a while though.

lololol what u say about taka_raka -yea i dont really understand the guy. (publishing a copy of Destiny's Nv2 map and calling it a tribute to Destiny)

Im feeling confident Blacklef is a fraud 1) he runs like a beginner which u wouldnt expect from a pro mapper who's been testing his own maps 2) there can be many black lions (lef is lion po Russki) 3) he didnt center the question mark (lol :p ) in his reply to me which cant be read http://www.thewayoftheninja.org/nv2.html?l=36732 4) The incident I picked up with the panel suggests he uses 1.4 Neditor in which case why not post the maps on to numa as well

About GrzegorzPL's map you mention, I was a bit disappointed that ur not forced to climb up on the underside of the diagonal rock

CMpunks's map oh yea thats cool how the player has to climb up towards the end, you did it nicely

You could add Btonios to the list of suspected cheaters if you go by chimneying ability. But they are all respectable guys, good n players, good mappers and mnst has a cool name. Anyone can find out about double shifting and its easy to do on some normal maps if you're coming to the chimney from the left so your finger is free etc etc. Cris is just a funny guy who is playing around with the idea of Ascheriit in my opinion and like I said I think his flash player might just be odd.

[james_S]

feels odd without Maxwell..

talking about the 'arrowed' map he stole, I think today's Fujita's map is part of that concept :) www.thewayoftheninja.org/nv2.html?l=36942 look up 'pre-hair '

[james_S]

wow Pastro, you took those slanted tile platforms in 'Maxwell's' map that we all liked and built up on the idea, really pro of you.. (map Elipse)
I havent worked out the proper route yet, but maybe add a few gate switches around? I think there are great places to place them in

[Inevitability]

3) he didnt center the question mark (lol :p ) in his reply to me which cant be read http://www.thewayoftheninja.org/nv2.html?l=36732

Lol. The most suspicious thing :p. He made smt around 30 cool maps and I always trusted him.
Someone can simply check his maps to make sure he hasn't plagiarized them. Unless then it is better not to be completely sure that he is a map plagiator.
Presumption of innocence... Also, a good mapper doesn't have to be a good player. In fact there are only few good players and mappers simultaneously.

Btonios' chimneys are probably legit. I suspect only players with ridiculously fast scores. Like marklar's score on this one
http://www.thewayoftheninja.org/nv2.html?l=21545 ["Untitty" marklar22]. Also consider his 0 on http://www.thewayoftheninja.org/nv2.html?l=20056 ["Is it fair to use a button-pressing program?" Phurix]. I can't find mnst or Johan1996 chimneys because it was too long ago, but i suspect them for reason. Almost completely sure only for mnst though.

Yeah that Fujita map rocks. Hmm... dammetysk came up with a good and unexpected route. Or maybe unexpectedly good route.

http://www.thewayoftheninja.org/nv2.html?l=37062 ["Titled (inspired by fujita a lot :D)" panstromek]
Cool map. Seems to be a bit limited for highscoring though.

[james_S]

Blacklef's reply gives him away anyhow- ''that map was bugged, I have made a new one'' lol and he said nothing else.
About Marklar22 (name from older Southpark for those who dont know) c'mon he'd be upset if he thought people werent taking his run as legit. Its his own map and Danielr's run was weak enough to be overtaken by yougotpwned using a worse technique as it shows now, he was probably snacking at the time, so u'd expect Marklar to try.
I can smash his other score but my hands are a bit cold at the mo loll. (EMG said before he does like double shifting/ his keyboard doesnt recognize it at speed).
EDIT:Besides its possible to double shift fast enough to get stuck on the ceiling even when hitting a curve tile like on that map
It'd be funny wouldnt it, if here I am trying to argue that there are no other cheaters, and you Inevitability were actually slowing the game yourself :) -your big improvement since N2 started could suggest that :)

ps Innevitabilty I'm glad u were the first to manage that climb up in my Swipenet map (diff version to T26's map just cause i wanted to explore the awkwardness of sliding down the tiles which none of you bothered with anyway) reaching the tile edge :D

[thejumper£#!]

This is finished: The Drones Tower - http://www.thewayoftheninja.org/nv2.html?l=32818
I sped up the gameplay a bit since I posted the wip... Do you like?



And LOL this bug is new for me! http://www.thewayoftheninja.org/nv2.html?l=37420 - TWO PLAYER RACE pls rate



Forgotten Beauty - blacklef - www.thewayoftheninja.org/nv2.html?l=37307
this style is very good, sure that is not plagiarized?

[james_S]

maybe that bug is fixed in the new version of N2 with the dysfunctioning editor. Did you play that on the new or old? I remember being a bit pissed off because that happened to me on a map which i really wanted to highscore -thus making it impossible for me to get a legit run in. It happened when I pressed very keys fast also.

I agree about the beauty of that map o_O hmm i wonder why that is, cause in a sense it is a strange design and u can say it sorta looks like an eye but i dont think thats part of the appeal..

im curious about u 'speeding up the gameplay' on that :) i'll try it out soon. The bounce blocks look good now -are they the same, did you straighten out the tower?

EDIT Cool, surprise surprise you used the enemies very well even if there are many of them. and that gold at the bottom of the tower is too funny. No help on that map tho, all the routes are hard... That thwump that comes out brings back good memories of being shot out of my tower

[thejumper£#!]

Where is version number? I think is 2.0
Yes you must press jump button very fast, like when after coming out of the chimney walk on the ceiling. (another bug)

About my map, I have slightly changed the position of some bounce block, but especially the initial position of the ninja.

[james_S]

oh thats what u changed. (I tried coming back from the other side for the first time and even thats challenging but in a good way cause u can do a massive jump :) )

but hmm if u want an opinion, i think the jump pad (on the roof) acting as an enemy seems a bit like a gimmick

Well, Metanet did that, they released a new version on N2 with some fixes for ppl to download but they didnt call it 'N2.1' so peple would realise to download it and thank god cause of the editor issue.
Havent you come across some maps on which when you reach the exit you get an error message? it keeps happening occasionally to me, thats why I have new Nv2 as back up.

Yes it is an enemy, that throws you against the "roofguard"! You don't like?

With this version:
- Some times, when level is bad (like with 100000 laser drones), i can't finish the level.
- I can't test my level, i use the browser version to test it.

If these problems are fixed i go to download new version!

[james_S]

hm this is for you too then>> http://forum.droni.es/viewtopic.php?f=67&t=10006 Panstromek uploaded the old version here, on which u can test maps. (And in that case i'll add that bug to the bug list now as its still present)

I fancy a (doner) kebab after trying out the level u mentioned hehe. forgotten beauty http://www.thewayoftheninja.org/nv2.html?l=37307

EDIT yea Jumper a bit, cause its like the 'robots' toying with the ninja
Im gonna remake the 'Cow' Storm took from numa today :p :p

[Inevitability]

...Its his own map and Danielr's run was weak enough to be overtaken by yougotpwned using a worse technique as it shows now...

So marklar was able to took it with a big gap. Well that makes sense if dan made just 1 try :P. Personally i think of anyone who beated Danielr as a cheater :) (with few exceptions). That's simply how good he is. About marklar... Ok, if you say so i will trust you.

It'd be funny wouldnt it, if here I am trying to argue that there are no other cheaters, and you Inevitability were actually slowing the game yourself :) -your big improvement since N2 started could suggest that :)

I'm not a cheater, you have my word. When i was a complete noob and had no idea of what was going on i made a button-pressing program and cheated 2 chimney levels. But that is all. I will never use it or smt like it again. About the progress... Well, it wasn't spontaneous (and i was a complete beginner the moment i started). I have been playing for a while and trying to become better. Still a noob though. Unfortunately i don't have enough time to progress lately. Simply trying to maintain my noobish skills.

...im curious about u 'speeding up the gameplay' on that :) i'll try it out soon...

Made an acceptable run on that map and was shocked by the score. Lol. That last piece of gold. Forced to leave it like that for today because i've run out of time.
Hmm... nice map jumper.

There's no direct difference in the gameplay, its just and older version with hence more bugs that were corrected on the last version, but you can test levels because that bug was introduced in the last version. If any of you guys are interested, I have all Nv2.0 versions that have been released (a total of 8).
