Is this game's online dead?
LlamaHombre said:
If you give things anywhere from a few hours to a couple of days, there's a good chance you'll find a modded server pop up. 7AM EST on a weekday is a bit of a hard sell for the playerbase, which while no means tiny is still probably only about 100-150 players total. Gondola TLMS, the newest CBM branch, is usually what fills quickest if you want to take initiative.
If you're looking for vanilla though you may be short on luck - consider asking around for people to play with.

Thank you for a quick response. I kind of forgot it was weekday today.

Is this game's online dead?
The server browser says every server is empty. It's a really sad sight. I remember playing one a few serves way back in the day, so it's unfortunate that it might not be possible to relive those days in any capacity.

Cobra's MM8BDM mod updates
Trying out a new movement controller:
This new movement controller is less laggy but I have no clue on how to make the sprites flip with this one, so I'll need to mess around with it more.
Edit: Sorry for the poor game audio, it seemed like the music I decided to use here was copyrighted.

KNDM - A 22 Map Pack With Maps From Other Games
...Partially! This map pack also contains a few "remixed" Megaman maps, along with some original ones. I am currently aiming to replace some of them for various reasons, before I continue to add more up to (hopefully) 26 maps.
This map pack is fully compatible with mods (so far), but if anything breaks let me know and I'll see what I can do about making accommodations for it. As far as player starts, each map contains 32 DM spawns, 16 for light/wily teams, 8 for cossack/king teams, and 8 coop starts in case a mod needs them!
Download: TSPG

I'll post a few images of how the platformer mod is looking currently.
The background bugged out when I took the photo, damn.
Newest enemy added! took 10 minutes to add em. This room needs renovations, I'll make it look better in time.
I feel like I'll get quite a bit done this week, enjoy the week everyone!

Cobra's MM8BDM mod updates
NOTE: I live in australia so my date is read by DAY/MONTH/YEAR, just saying that now to avoid any confusion!
Weekly mod news 2/6/2024 "The final additions before the online tests"
Platformer mod: "Levels & more"
1. started and finished a difficult level (bonus sky stage "hope you don't have a fear of heights!")
2. made a hub world where players can select the level they want to play (has same rules as MMX campaign mod you need the leader to pick the stage)
3. level select if functional but once you get on the stage select you can't get off until the stage is selected. (still needs adjustment)
4. made a hud for Alric class, not that big of a deal
5. An extra weapon has been made for those who are able to pass a difficult level. It has the best parts of two weapons in this one!
6. weapons from the platformer mod can pick up ammo now,
7. Fixed an unseen issue of losing copyweps on death, that would of struck fear into those who like their weapons so I patched it.
Other:
n/a
Plans for next week? I feel like taking a good break from mod works for a good week or two to get videos done and do more fun things. I'll be doing testing and see what'll come to the mods, they are currently private but I'll make them public one day.
An old screenshot during the week, but one I find funny.

Bubble-gun weapon
Bubbles as a weapon? It would never wor-
The Bubble-gun allows you to fire a stream of bubbles that deal decent damage, but deal even more damage if you let them travel for a while. Be careful though! If you fire too many bubbles then you will need to recharge after your done, or risk bad accuracy or bubbles not coming out at all!
This mod also replaces in the instagib mode, Instead of getting those trash metal blades you instead get a infinite-ammo version of the bubble gun! However, the bubbles from this gun must travel for a while until they can deal damage.
Try aiming at ceilings or walls to get best use of this weapon!
(This mod uses custom bar slot 10 and 11)

Project Thread Guidelines
Project Thread Guidelines
In lieu of a formal project submission process, all we ask is that you follow these suggested guidelines below. If your thread breaks too many of these guidelines, we may ask you to make adjustments to it.
Show, Don't Tell
People enjoy seeing projects much more than reading about them. Including screenshots or even videos in your thread makes it more appealing and better encourages people to give your project a shot.
Give Credits
If your project contains the work of others, please provide a list of credits in the project and / or thread. It's just the right thing to do, simple as that.
Discord =/= Storage
Don't use Discord as a storage location! If you use media embed links from Discord in your project threads, you will quickly see broken images and download links. Discord's media links expire after a certain amount of time, so they're not a good fit for forums. If you need to serve an image in your thread, Imgur is a tried and true staple.
Download Links
Making sure that your project is readily accessible goes a long way, so please keep an up-to-date download link in your project thread. Do not obscure download links behind Discord servers or anything of that sort. We personally recommend uploading your PK3 and WAD files to The Sentinel's Playground. This is the service most commonly used for hosting servers, so by uploading your files here, you make it easier for people to play using your projects.
Version Your Files
Whenever naming your project's files, add a version suffix such as "v1" or "v1a" then increment it for each new version after. Versioning your files helps people to know whenever your projects have been updated and helps server clusters such as TSPG differentiate different versions of projects.
Hosting / Playing Instructions
If your project has a more complicated load order, such as requiring multiple files in a specific order or requiring a specific map rotation, it can be helpful to provide instructions on how to get its load order right. Even further, you may want to consider providing and maintaining a server configuration that people can use to host servers more easily.
Modding Documentation
If your project makes use of DoomED numbers, ClassBase slots, CustomBar slots, translation IDs, etc, we ask that you please mirror your project to the wiki's Mod List. This is a spot where modders can document any information about their project that may cause it to conflict with other projects. By documenting this information, you make it easier for people to make compatible content!
