I have started work on my level now. I have made a few modifications to my original design, but still the same basic idea. Look for it be be at NaliCity in 2-4 days. Maybe more. I'm still learning some tricks so it probably will take more. After I'm done that, I will look into some gun making tutorials.

Nope, Don't want to show my horible texture job. And about screenshots, I need a tool to change the size of screenshots so I can put one in the menu. Anyone know a good one for free?

ahh, ****!

Damnit! I messed up huge!! The god damn platforms are to narrow! One person can barely fit on one. I don't have a good enough sense of scale for this. I dunno, I'll take a few screenies and post them up here (if someone will tell me how) so you can get an idea of how badly I messed up. If you think I should start over, I will since it's a very not-complex level and I already know what to do. DAMN MOUSE!!!! ****ING THING GETS STUCK ALL THE TIME!!! I need an optical one, and my dad says he'll by one maybe eventually.

yeah, fucking censors, right? :p

um.... y'ever try cleaning your mouse?

Open it up, take the ball out and look at the rollers. I'll bet there's a nice layer of crud all over them. Get some tweezers or something sharp and small, and BEING VERY CAREFUL, proceed to de-crud them. Make sure the rollers are clean, clean the ball, pop it back in and put the cover back on. Presto.

Optical mouseses aren't worth the hassle IMO. Bad for games, too expensive, yak yak yak.

When I went to buy my mouse I wanted the ball-ed kind, and the saleslady kept steering me to this optical mouse, like $50 MORE than what I wanted. She must work on commission or something.

Finally after seeing my kind remarks of "no thank you, I would just like this one" were not working, I said, a bit more harshly:

"Look, I want this mouse. The $30 one. Not the $80-plus-tax one. I want this one. If you don't stop trying to sell me that optical mouse I won't buy this one either and I will go somewhere else for my mouse."

Two minutes later I was purchasing my reliable three-button-and-a-scrollwheel ball Logitech mouse. Never had a problem with it since I got it three months ago, and I clean it about once a month.

If you have a cheap-ass shitty mouse though, and you can'topen the back of it (gotta love those ones eh) then go get one you can open and clean. I highly recommend the three-button-scrollwheel Logitech. Very good mice. The third button is the scrollwheel, instead of wheeling up and down with it you push it in, and that's what makes it three buttons.

Right now I'm using a five button optical mouse with a wheel. I kinda miss my Wingman, but I use the wheel and side buttons too often.

Yeah, my brother cleaned it for me when it was messed. I looked inside before and saw little black things that looked like grips (which was actaully hard packed dust) and it looked just like a tiny bit of dust around them. All better now. And Smoke, may I ask just how much that mouse cost?
