Hi,

I had some time (and some worms) to kill so I made over 25 GIF animations made thanks to the kewl export video feature of WA. You can watch'em all on the No Limit Freestyle web pages :
http://www.nolimitfreestyle.com/

Here is a sample to show you what cool things you can do with the export video feature of WA. Enjoy!

Nice.

But some more frames wouldn't be bad.

True. But more frames means more weight. I wanted to keep anims below 100 kB when possible. I'll try to make up video next time ;)

Hah, not seen that grenade backflip glitch before. Nice clips, although the Extended Mexi is called a Dark Mexi.

It's a cool funny trick :D

For the extended mexi, it's true it's also called dark mexi depending on the source like the Nova / Wall shadow ;)

Edit: The consensus a few years ago was that what you have on the site is indeed a "Dark Mexican Flip". An "Extended Mexican Flip" is what you call "Pump Mexi" there. Although just about everyone had [and still has] their own version of naming the tricks, heh.

Available on BTP ;)

Warmer Map from the Trick Demo animations (http://www.blamethepixel.com/maps.php?step=2&mapname=&author=Kuark&user=&thetype=any&orderby=id&order=DESC&workswith=any&limit=10&submit=Find+Maps%21)

@KRD: Nop done with Photoshop and Imageready. If the worm looks like it's flying without being touched by the nade is because of the frame rate. The frame where the nade precisely hit the worm is not in the animation. Also, as these are GIFs and I wanted to keep low weight files, I always make the background static and only focus on the animated worms. That is why cr8, worms and water are not moving on most of the animations.

Thanks for pointing out this confusion.

Initially when I created NLF it was for freestylers to recognise themselves on the network. "Members" just show with their tag they are freestylers. Ambassadors are really representatives of the NLF attitude. They have the Tag and they talk about NLF over the network.

I will change "member" to "freestyler" in order to avoid that confusion. Ambassador will remain ;)

Are you kiddin' ?sar‧casm [sahr-kaz-uhm]

2. a sharply ironical taunt; sneering or cutting remark: a review full of sarcasms

Sarcasm and irony are different but I can't explain why.

Sarcasm is often a blunt statement which opposes what it says. Erm, like if I said "I really like My Little Pony" I'd be being sarcastic, because I don't really like My Little Pony at all.

Irony is when the opposition in what is said is not intended. So, if I said "People who get parking tickets are idiots" while in actual fact I was getting a parking ticket... no wait... um... if I said "I am being ironic" but um... no wait, that might cause an infinite loop.

Like I say, I can't really explain it well.

Irony:
- Have you heard what happened to our boss that kept firing everyone because they were deemed redundant?
- No.
- Apparently he fired so much that the company CEO decided he was now redundant and fired him.
- Oh the irony.

Sarcasm:
- HL2 came out yesterday. Have you finished it yet?
- Oh yeah, sure. I mean come on, the game is so incredibly easy and small, you could just finish it in a snap!
- Geez, no need to get sarcastic.

Is this onla WA? If this clan also exists around WWP i would like to join. It been a while since i've freestyled- and maybe there's a chancer i can meet with others and the clan with only a freestyle map. I'm hoping also to learn it, as i'm quite a beginner. But i'm getting WA soon if there are no WWP members/freestylers-

Thanks

How on earth do you do the "Vertical Baseball Bat" trick? It is awesome. It would be fun to use on an online game...

No Limit Freestyle is not a clan. It a mouvment, a way for freestylers to display what they are on Worm Net. It is both WA and WWP.

The thing about WA was concerning the replays from where the animations were taken from.

If you want to meet on WWP, have a visit on the website and leave a message in the shoutBox. We'll try to arrange a game ;)

@Robowurmz: Soz, I did see your message in the shoutBox. As I was busy coding upgrades, I didn't take time for a proper answer.
The baseball bat trick is quite easy to acheive. First select the rope and aim to the roof vertically. Then walk towards the worm u wanna bat. While walking select baseball bat by pressing f7 (once if no drill, twice if you have the drill in your scheme) and press space when coming close to the worm. Important: You need to be in mouvement while batting otherwise, the bat will go no higher than 45 degrees. Enjoy !!! :D

For the baseball bat to the ground, just aim the opposite. You'll need a bazooka or a shotgun to aim as rope cannot be aimed to the ground.

Okay. That's alright, i didn't think of this as a clan, and i already knew it. Maybe it's just because there's people who have sum tags. :)
