Well...just recovered from a huge power outage here in Burnaby. No power for 48 (possibly more) hours. I had to live off of Superstar Saga for a while...

Anyway, Kilburn, I think those worms deserve their own topic since they posses their own distinct style!

LOL Gordon Freeworm. Along with G-Worm, Eli Worm, Alyx Worm, Dr. Worm, and the Wormbine battle in Ravenworm, City 1337 and Nova Wormpekt. That'd be a fun little title, but it wouldn't be original. I was thinking a more Total Wormage war-torn style rather than W2-W4 comicy style.

Well, maybe it's just really high up in the sky, and Faraz doesn't want to have a "distant ground" graphic.

Question:

Im aware of that, but it would be too difficult to design a sprite tilting up. Also, as mentioned later in the topic, the shuttle is going straight up, so that could be a factor. Maybe it's a new model with vertical axis take-off.

Anyway, back to TA. It looks like this final boss is going to be extremely difficult to beat. You'll probably need sheer skill to take it down, but in 60 seconds, you'll need sheer luck as well. But a challenge's a challenge, and I like a bit of a challenge. :)

Luckily, though, it was only the second executable, which took roughly 3/4 of a month's work. I might be able to recreate it now that most of the misc tasks are out of the way. (Graphics, pre-preperation, etc...)

The program sure picked a good time to screw up; right when I was editing the very last cutscene (A cliffhanger, therefore, only a few seconds long.)

|^| not answered yet huh.

and, faraz, i think if i were in those senarios, i wouldnt close or save first. try leaving the program aside, search for your game file (in this case, "Team Alpha Ex2.mfa") and if you found the file still existing, make a copy of it a.s.a.p.

the program could have been corrupted, and while working on the game, it may have accidentally corrupted and deleted the file upon closing of the program. or maybe it's just me.

Stuff is never truly gone until your HDD drive is formatted or it is overwritten. It is only overwritten when your HDD becomes full.*

It is possible to recover things, just a little difficult.

Stuff is never truly gone until your HDD drive is formatted or it is overwritten. It is only overwritten when your HDD becomes full.*nope, you can still recover stuff even if the file was overwritten or the hard drive formatted

that is, unless you mean some other file overwrites the leftover data bits of the deleted program
:p

edit: i tested recuva
at the moment, it can't recover stuff from ntfs drives. only fat32 or fat drives
remember that this is still in beta

oh.. i downloaded the third demo, and then i used WinRAR to open it, and then i ran the setup file (i think its setup.exe). Then, i ran the Team Alpha program and managed to progress until the second level. i think there are a few glitches.

1) the part where there's the head of a worm surrounded by rocks at the top of the screen. i jumped up, and got stuck at the rock.
2) the two guys at the end are invulnerable. i cant kill but they can.

OK, I'm officially out of my funk. I'll try Recuva. Since it probably won't work (If it does, PRAISE THE LORD-AH!) I'm going to rewrite the thing. I'm going on vacation for a month, leaving at June 20th, so I'll stay up 3-4 nights to rush it done.

Unless you guys can wait another month...which you probably can't. I'll just get started on it anyway...

Alright, so Recuva obviously didn't work. I started rewriting it last night. So far I'm making lightning fast progress. I'm upto the level where you have to climb up the side of the shuttle (Previous page(s) for screenshots). That means I have the climb level, some cutscenes, mystery boss fights 1 and 2 and the final cutscene. Oh and the multiplayer levels.

Alright, so while that's on the side, I need an opinion. Right now I'm using the GoW one, but I just wanna know what you guys think about the other one and if I should switch because I'm split between them (The damn blades took a long time and you can't even see them >:[ )

You just have to fend them off long enough for the car to get there. Every hit you take will slow you down in addition to a health penalty. Pay attention to the bar on the near-top of the screen.

I'm on mystery boss fight 2 now. :) Very close to being done.

TEAM ALPHA IS FINISHED AND RELEASED!!!:eek:
http://img243.imageshack.us/img243/1342/sketcheroni3mp.png
From the old TA site

LINK TO DOWNLOAD:
Check first page.

Installation is complicated. READ THE GOSHDARN HICKLE-BUBBLE TOOTIN'-TOTTIN, DIDDLEY POPPING, README!...please.

Stuff I changed in the rewrite:

Redid the second executable (obviously)
Changed some dialogue.
Credits redone and look way cool now.
Mystery Boss Fight 2 completely redesigned
Awesome new twist to the final battle
Made final battle longer
Did some cool artwork representing the game from start to finish (Shown during credits)
Fixed up AVI file
Added another cool twist
Added awesome music
Took away a really stupid part
Made the ending a homage to another game on the SNES (BAD Hint: It involves a person killing monsters)
Added 3 new music tracks from another game that involves killing monsters.
Took away clouds from first level. (Sorry)
Made bike level harder
Made Pixeltron slightly easier.
Made Mystery Boss 1 slightly harder.
Made Plasma's scene look awesome
Redesigned some of Mystery Boss 2's limbs
Added a secret to the game. :O
Took away Multiplayer mode. :( Sorry Pigbuster and Zshowski. You're still in the game, but in a secret level. I'm lazy, sue me.
Took away Tutorial. Useless.
Made installation harder. :p


This is (probably) be the first and the last release of Team Alpha. Starting probably next year will be another fangame brought to you by me. This time, though, we do it right. Features SURE to be..erm..featured.

A game (duh)
Single-Player Campaign (derf)
Internet Multiplayer
Nostaliga (Did I spell that right?)
Unlockable sigworms system
Deformable terrain.
Map Editor
Moddable.

That's still A LONG WAYS OFF. With Summer vacation coming up in...9 days, I'll probably not even go near MMF2.exe for at least 6 months. I'm not even going to be THINKING about a second Worms fangame for a longer time so...yeah. Enjoy your short-ass game Lulz.

Oh and on June 19th, I'll probably be putting those images from the credits on here so finish it by then. Also, if you want I'll upload the little song from the climb level's story twist since it's from a very awesome soundtrack. (Not uploading the soundtrack, sorry, just the WAV.)

Problems people will probably have:
Q: I don't know how to install it, it's confusing.
A: Readme.txt

Q: Grey screen after the password in executable 2.
A: Readme.txt

Q: Game won't let me play the final mission.
A: Readme.txt

Q: I can't play! It just keeps asking me for a password!
A: Readme.txt

If there are actual problems, hurry up and ask because I'm leaving in a week.

Stuck?
NOTE: People who played the level can fill in the blanks, I don't want to spoil it.

Q: dyde so i was liek fighting last boss and the second segment started and i couldn't move!!!!1!1!!
A: Back up before the end of the first segment.

Q: dyde so i was liek fighting cskien and his arm disappeared!!!111!1!1
A: Supposed to happen.

Q: (old but relevant) dyde so i was liek in tielend and ders a rock blocking way what do!!111!!!
A: In this case, there are two unusual things. one is the rock. The other...well, two wrongs make a right in this case.

Q: dyde so i was liek playing level where worms wear suits and walk slow and i keep dying whenever i go in front of gray worms!!!!11111!!
A: What do you think you should stop doing then?

Q:cant get throught that mission, tried a lot of times already. kept on shooting but they keep on coming.
A: Finally someone who doesn't say 'dyde.' Of course they keep on coming just fend them off until the car gets to the location. Theres a bar near the top of the screen.

Can anybody mirror the file for me? Filefront already deleted one of my files for no apparent reason.

I probably should've explained that in the Readme. Exectuable one can be played through Start Menu >All Programs>Games>Team Alpha. Executable 2 is in the directory you installed it to (Default, C:\Team Alpha Exec2\

12 Jul 2007, 18:16
to both farazparsa and people
the start menu shortcut takes you to "C:\WINDOWS\system32\setup.exe"
fix it to where you installed the game (the game file is ironically called "setup.exe")

if you're too lazy, just run "setup.exe" everytime you play the game and forget about the start menu shortcut
the game is quite good
:p

edit: by the way, could you post a list of the passwords in team alpha?
i kind of forgot to look at them...
:p

one more edit: the only thing in the exec2 directory is "uninstall.exe"

farazparsa
13 Jul 2007, 00:08
What the fuzzel?

OK, I've diagnosed and fixed both problems. The good news is that both files now work. :) The bad news is that the file size jump 10 megs. :( This won't be the case next time as I'll just be using MMF2 and not TGF. Also, you no longer need to extract moonraker to it's directory. Installation does that. Ok so, read:

Problem 1: Exe1 is gone. :eek:
Solution: TGF is acting wierd. You can find the file at C:\Windows\(or wherever you installed it)\setup.exe. Yes, it's wierd. Look for the exe with an Uzi icon.
Problem 2: Exe2 is gone. :eek:
Solution: That was my bad, not the programs. It's fixed now. And so is the AVI file.
Problem 3: Will it run on Vista?
Solution: I'm sure Exe1 won't run but Exe2 might. Then again, maybe not.

Sorry about the file size. :(
Shockdude, sorry, no password...yet.
Links updated. Check first page.

PEOPLE! DISREGARD THE STEP IN THE README ABOUT THE "moonraker.rar" FILE! That's automated now.

So, I think you must check this game a lot, then fix the bugs and make version 1.2. Oh, and don't hurry, if you hurry, you won't fix them correctly.

You have the same amount of lives for everybody. If you play FP for the first mission and lose a life, you will have the same amount for KT. Also, if your lives reach 0 then you're gone. You can't keep playing when you have no lives.
I pretty much abandoned the old executable and worked on the second for the most part so if I do release a 1.2, it'll be because the game is unplayable at a crucial part.

And what's this about TA2?

Because Team Alpha doesn't seem loud on your system, I think you have no speakers. I have surround sound with my computer, and I had to put sound to lowest to get reasonable sound. And even on lowest sound it is still loud. If you don't have speakers, you must put sound the highest to hear. Is this the problem?

Oh, and when I fight in the second mission, I said I have still one life! The game's over when I have one life still left! I think it is a bug.

Please fix this problem!Most soundcards have the MIDI synthetizer at a fixed-maximum-volume. It's not really something game-dependent.

Also, clearly I'm a genius because I managed to get Faraz's guns to not fire at all and Kenny stuck only 43 seconds into the game:

Oh well I get into the game, and I can... jump. Then I get into the first FIGHT SCENE!
Then I started shooting the guy on the left and he exploded. Then I shot the guy on the right and the game crashed. Woo!

Use your internal volume control if it's loud instead of your external one.

Oh, is this really a bug? Or you made it this way to make the level more difficult?

So it is a bug, but when you saw the bug you decided to don't fix it just to make the game more difficult.

Please fix that bug! Because I can't continue the game, and play all these great missions to reach the end, that means that I'm stuck is Mission 2.

When Team Alpha v. 1.2 is coming?

Well if it's about the rocks, then find a way to remove them. It's fairly obvious when you think about it. It's impossible to jump through them.

If it's about the game over when you still have one life left then the answer is really simple; don't die. Either that, or find a way to get hold of that life you can't get.

for mission 2, where you go into a battle with two worms, make sure the two maniacs running back and forth is out of the way, then jump and shoot at the nearest worm.

Just make sure the two running maniacs are at the other end away from you, or running towards the other end away from you, and jump and shoot the nearest worm to you. try evading their shots. it isnt that difficult. after killing one of the worms, proceed to the other. you will require at least one full life or more to kill one worm as the two maniacs absorb your bullet.

I do this. But their lifes are going out slowly! I can reach the end but when I need some more shots to complete this mission and it says game over. It is very difficult, maybe I need practice. Some tricks to erase lifes from the worms faster?

Get some practice. or...ehem...carski.

The one where you have one life left but Game Over appears. The fact of that is, I coded it so once you have no lives left it says Game Over. It's not all that difficult anywho.

What other choice?
Secret Sprue Project?
sprue2 (sprū) pronunciation
n.

1. The hole through which molten material is chanelled into a mold.
2. The waste material filling or protruding from this hole after hardening.
3. The usually plastic rod or framework that secures molded objects, such as model parts or game pieces, before their first use.

[Perhaps of Scots origin.]
