There's also the matter of having the right pallete selected in the WAD editor you're using at the time you add the sprites to it. If you have the wrong pallete, the index numbers will be incorrect, and your poor sprite will look like it visited Acid Trip Zone.

Robotnik just forgot to add atmospheric shielding to Egg Rock Zone, that's all :3

Actually, in my experience, you can limit the camera's height by changing the floor/ceiling heights of a sector that's right behind the camera's viewpoint. I haven't done this in a while so it might not work so well, but I've seen it happen. The reason for it being slightly behind the...

If I recalll correctly, the automatic demo playback that Doom had was removed along with all the other Doom stuff that SRB2 didn't need ages ago. It'd be something nice to have back though.

Mine's strangely uncomplicated, but anyway: I was playing a game called 1602 A.D. one day, and had to order another ship built as the AI had just destroyed one. When the game adds a new ship to your fleet, it gives it a random name from a list; this one came out with the name Drake, which can...

There's a TVTrope article that explains this phenomenon quite well: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/UnpleasableFanbase With that out of the way, I'm probably one of those few people who doesn't rightly care if the Sonic series goes exactly back to the way the classics were. If the...

You might want to use the newer GHZ textures om Twister Country Zone, like the ones used in Sapphire Falls. The scaling on the old set seems way off to me. Of course, this is just my two cents.

I don't really see what makes them NOT fit. There's nothing about them that screams of being in one particular setting over another.

Actually, flight time was a MAINCFG variable that affected all Flight characters, not a S_SKIN variable. I don't know if it still exists or not.

I used to stuff myself in a tiny closet space as a kid, but in games I cannot stand tight spaces. I'm 22, yet I sleep with a small Tails plushie. I have moments where I seem to 'lose the plot', in that I'll sit there staring at and thinking nothing for several minutes. I have this really...

Firefox occasionally screws up like that. I've never been able to figure out what causes it, but it only happens once in a blue moon, and restarting Firefox solves the problem immediately.

I use first-person mode all the time (Egg Rock, I'm looking at you), and I have not once experienced such an issue.

Use the supported (and for that matter, default) 640x400 instead. High resolution is not nessecarry for simply showing off a level, contrary to popular belief.

If you are honestly going to pursue this, look at how Sapphire Falls' level design is put together, and remember that a sunset atmosphere doesn't turn everything pure orange. Tone down the strength of the colormap, at the very least.
