Turrican 2 Editor

john4p · 02 July 2009, 13:32

OT (kinda): Wasn't there an editor for "Turrican II" (Amiga-version)? I remember a screenshot with the usual T2-starting area filled with powerup-boxes which aren't there in the original.

Someone have a link?

Shoonay · 02 July 2009, 13:34

Never seen that screenshot, nor the editor. Any idea where you've seen that?

john4p · 02 July 2009, 13:50

It was somewhere in the Internet. I remember the site was called "English Amiga Board" (?) or something like that...

Or maybe it wasn't really an editor with a GUI but just a description (incl. proof) of how to "mod" T2...

Split from the Superfrog 2 thread...

@john: never heard of the place, lol

/Heman mode
By the blessing of RCK's search function, I have to search for it!

TCD · 02 July 2009, 13:59

Great - I hope your battlecat supports you!

Shoonay · 02 July 2009, 14:11

@johnny: you perfectly sure it was for T2 mate?

cause I remember and found this now:
http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=40375

no can't see anything about T2

john4p · 02 July 2009, 14:14

Yes, there was another thread! I know about the T3-sourcecode (hoping, someone makes something out of that, too, someday...

).

Maybe this?

It doesn't say which part it is for, but the graphs are from T3 so it might be the same editor...

john4p · 02 July 2009, 15:06

No, that isn't what I meant either.

Searched myself and couldn't find it. But searching for "Turrican" here took me to this:
http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?...urrican&page=2
WTH? Super Cars International? How could I probably have missed that back when I had MS-DOS?! I need to try this on DosBox ASAP!

Maybe that thread about Turrican II was on another forum after all? I've searched through nemmelheim/turricanforever's threads but couldn't find it - only this thread about the C64-versions:
http://www.turricanforever.de/setaforum?id=210

Shoonay · 02 July 2009, 15:10

Of all the interwebz, if nemmelheim/turricanforever folks doesn't have it I fear that it doesn't exist

oh well, it's nice to dream, that someday... someday...

Ask Exl very nicely - I bet hes figured it all out already.
If there was full T2 editor id like to do something in Metroid Style

The Turrican 3 source might have a Map editor - but the tools are Baffling.

john4p · 02 July 2009, 16:46

It's not that urgent - I don't wanna bother him.

That Metroid-style Turrican has recently beend done - Metroidican, a highly recommendable levelpack for T2002 (far better than T2002's default levels).

Get T2002 (including the editor) from: www.pekaro.de (=> "Download")
And Levelpacks at: http://www.nemmelheim.de/turrican (=> "Levelbase")

Exl · 02 July 2009, 17:42

I got as far as loading level 2 and displaying it's tilemap, then I lost interest

It is something I want to do some day though.

john4p · 03 July 2009, 09:22

Okay, I've asked at Turrican SETA's board and got what I was looking for:

(so it weren't bonus-blocks but just blocks in the screenie)

Here is the topic in which I got the answer: http://turricanforever.de/bronkoforum?id=526

@Exl: That sounds great.

"He was our only hope. No, there is another."

TCD · 03 July 2009, 09:31

X_To = Joe Maroni

john4p · 03 July 2009, 09:32

Then I'm pretty sure there must be a thread about this here.

Btw.: dear Joe Maroni, could you please make your levelExtractOfAndInsertToAWinUaeSaveStateFile-Tool available?
