Level Shuffle

Creating a separate topic for it because I did a little tiny update. In short, it's just one level randomly generates it's layout. For the most part it's just some walls, some rocks and bomb, and also a specific amount of gems that always matches the amount required for completion (it's always 90/9...

(Random Generation Mine topic) Level Shuffle

From what I see, even despite using a sort of procedural generation, it looks like absolute mess, which I'm not saying that's bad, more so there's a bunch of absolute randomness with non-deterministic amount of collectible gems. That reminded me how a while ago I had an idea I just never tried to co...

Re: Emerald Mine Fan say hello

Not to sound rash, but I'm fairly sure the title image is AI generated. Not really saying this is bad, but... some artifacts of that image just really bother me, especially the non-existent pixels if you look a bit closer

make your own artwork in RND

As much as I could have agreed on having a sort of integrated graphics editor, I feel like that would be a bit too much effort for such change. Especially considering how little is game's playerbase, it doesn't really seem to be worth the effort. I mean, I'm not the one to tell Holger what to do, bu...

Re: In what engine RND is developed?

From what I understand, it was originally just built off of Mirror Magic's code structure, while Mirror Magic was a sort of "port" of Mindbender built just on SDL. I don't think there's much behind that.
I may be wrong on that, so Holger, feel free to correct me on that.

Re: undo key

Neat! Although the question is are they going to be dependant on the "Snapshot mode" setting? I'm pretty sure they're only going to be available when it's ON. But are they going to be dependant on the "Show Undo/Redo buttons" setting? Something tells they should work no matter if...

Re: Sidebar / Tape bar settings

Well, there's no actual setting for changing door placements, but there is a way to use artwork from different levelset if you go to Setup → Custom Artwork → Custom Graphics and choose whatever graphics you want, including screen attributes of that pack. alighfl1.png alighfl2.png alighfl3.png Althou...

Re: How to reset all settings?

Check the custom artwork settings. If you have "Override level graphics" set as Yes, then that's probably the problem, because it should be No to always have whatever artwork levelset uses. And same for music and sound overrides as well.

Re: "Dead Amoeba" is missing from the editor (EM)

Pretty sure it's just a general setting assigned for every amoeba type besides amoeba drop and amoeba tiles from MM.

Please could you explain further what you mean by: "the game loads specifially with the levelset loaded last" "The second rule doestapply to window's top left icon though, only that it loads when the levelset is loaded prematurely." (my bad about all those typos, I was kind of r...

Re: change the icon that displays on the task bar

Simply put: this feature seems to be very raw and non dynamic. I actually included icons of my own in my Reflektor work, except as just "icon.png". The thing is, it only changes the icon on the taskbar if: 1) the game loads specifially with the levelset loaded last, 2) the game isn't locke...

Re: Your artwork

Here's a pretty fresh one I drew just to put on some mexican cultural clothing on my character of all things. That's just an absolutely random idea I had, not much context here. She ain't mexican either btw.

Re: Some TOG's mobile puzzles

@TheOnyxGuy, do you have them as saved RnD level files? Could you upload in either that form, or the backtick inlined format? Unfortunately, original level files were lost to time. I can potentially recreate em, which, well, is there really a point if someone already did. But one thing I'll point o...

[4.4.1.2] Snapshot undo after dying in BD and MM engines have some oddities

In short, at one moment I downloaded "The new Boulder Dash level collection" and just played around in few levels. Because I'm kind of used to sometimes undoing accidental deaths with snapshot mode, which R'n'D engine itself, plus EM and SP are all handling just fine (well, if you don't ha...

Re: kriszz BD graphics: "auto" option text doesn't get redrawn completely

Unfortunately, it seems to be not fixed in my case.
In fact, I just noticed they also seen to affect scrollbar a little bit, look at some of it's bits cut off.
