CW2 Update 2 and Custom Maps are LIVE!

At last…. custom maps are now live!  Waste no time… head to the updates page, play for 12 hours straight, then you can come back here and finish reading:

http://knucklecracker.com/creeperworld2/patches.php

Welcome back!  I’m sure you finished all of the 20+ maps that were available at launch.  Of course, there are probably more in the queue waiting to be approved by now, so a Liberation Ship Captain’s job is never really done.  Now that you’ve played a bunch of maps you might like to make your own.  You can get the map editor here:

http://knucklecracker.com/creeperworld2/mapeditor.php

Here’s a little screenshot for the impatient:

With this editor, you can do all sorts of things.  Custom fields, graphics, tiles.  Make tall or short maps, easy or hard.  It’s all up to you.  When you are finished you can upload your map to KnuckleCracker.com and it will be reviewed by a crack team of community based moderators.  After approval, it can show up right on KnuckleCracker.com and right in the game.  Your path to fame will have begun… all I ask is that you remember all of the little people when you are on the red carpet posing for the paparazzi.

    I actually was sufficiantly surprised, and excited that I had an outburst of “****, its about time!”

    The mods:- you made a small type when you talked about them. You said “…it will be reviewed by a crack team of community based moderators.”

    It should have been: “a community of moderators on crack!”

    Woo, thanks for the b-day present Virgil! Hehe. Been waiting for this update since CW2 came out–checked the site nearly everyday waiting. Keep up the awesome work on CW2, and I can’t wait to see what other projects/games you can come up with.

    Thanks again for making two of my all-time favorite games!

    Virgil, I think you should check this out, you might be able to demonstrate Creeper World 2 to a much larger audience, at Mine-con. Please follow this link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?hl=en_US&formkey=dDRhRVE2SWdIQk5XUDdfTTVuMXZ3OVE6MQ&ndplr=1#gid=0

    Why not make a field code system that we can code our own action?
    However, everything is totally great! Thanks Knuckle Cracker!

      Only maps that you have downloaded from the in-game browser or have manually moved to the CW2 “customgames” folder will show up in My Maps

    Here’s a new wrinkle for you!

    While playing two different custom maps on two different days, I’ve elected to ‘restart’ the mission, only to have the game reset to my last ‘quick-save’ position, rather than the absolute beginning.

    Sorry, no screen-shots or other supporting evidence…

    Been playing with custom maps, and the editor, for a while now, and it is magnificent! Thank you, Virgilw!

    One question though: When I d/l a map, where does it save to?

    P.S. I’m also confirming that everything works beautifully on Win7.
