Note: This thread will be dedicated to announcing Unholy Nation news as news is made. :)

wow you let wynde win? un-install.

i see my superior resolution will come in handy

Nice level and played-out idea.

lol did you run into a treetop?

Draw Mario and Link watching the Graal character and being very disappointed with what their games have become haha

Yes :(

Don't have to draw them. Just use one of the copyrighted heads that Door keeps uploading lol.

For something like a kart map it only requires a simplistic layout and I think that layouts are what are supposed to be setting one map apart from another (whether this is a different variation to other kart maps on UN I don't know), but I too feel that the tiling is a very poor representation of the theme, it's essentially your normal castle tiles (when there is an alternative within pics1.png that actually does come across as more creepy) with lots of halloween trees (doesn't exactly make sense) and only a small portion of lava (might have been better to use in a larger quantity).

bowsers castle was better imo

GK's balloons are so amazing.

But, for a track titled "Forest Frenzy" I thought there would be a lot more...forest, and less...insides?

I mean, I think the castle track had more trees. It should have been all outside, not inside tiles. (Quality over quantity!!!)

You have a point. I think a more apporpriate name for the track would have been "Treetop Terror".

Haha, well then.

the karts look too big and this is probably a waste of time.

Your posts don't need to be nice, but they should be constructive if they're not nice.

Just delete all the posts then.
Why not just delete the whole forum too?

Haha, well then.

Why don't you put the whole world in a bottle, Superman?

A common trend seems to be that one or two posts gets deleted controversially, which leads to complaints, which leads to the whole thread spiraling out of control, causing the bulk of the threads' problems (and by extension: the forums' problems) to remain largely the fault of the moderation team for liberal use of their powers.

Haha, well then.

Haha, well then.

I don't see how deleting my post explaining the exact same thing was in any way helpful.

uh oh tig got a taste of the delete button.

The levels would be a lot better if they weren't so bland there could of easily been some proper floor detailing, and the go-karts would look a lot better if they didn't extend out so much.

I assume it's based on Mario Kart.


Well go actually look at some Mario Kart tracks. They're not just generic looking roads. They're themed, filled with traps and shortcuts that contribute to said theme. Even the ones that are boring "circuit" tracks still have generic racing theme traps. Both of these are just... castle floors with castle walls and then some stuff outside of it that has nothing to do with the race. The things thrown on the track to shake it up, the moving black orb and... oil slicks? Yeah okay. Those things don't really apply to theme of the track itself, but instead just thrown in there to spice up a bland level.

The graphics are also bad looking.


Although I'm not sure who this post is directed to - this is a news thread, not development. As far as I know, Matt's not staff.

Should get some custom track graphics made, use that as the focus point so that directions are obvious, and everything else would just be background scenery. Here's an extremely messy test level of graphics that Dusty made for me in 2008 for example.

That level is already better than the majority of UN's "content" combined.

I know I'm not the greatest dev, but I have been making tracks. I'm working on a new one that will have lots of interesting things in it, such as custom graphics, tracks, etc.. I will spend a long time on it to make it perfect.

PS The oil is a trap that a player drops so I don't know if that counts as part of the track...

The graphics and levels put me off imo.
I thought there were racing maps from before, when this was first made? Can't you use those?

UN is looking for some Events Developers. Here is the official message from Drake, the Events Team Admin:






Yes, there were a few tracks from the previous GoKart version that have already been set up for this new system.

Good luck UN!

If you have any ideas for tracks, please post in this thread; I can guarantee they will be read and taken into account.

How? By whom?

by him, you god damn morangutang, he's in charge.

No bane is....I just tell him stuff lol

And I'm working hard on the next track and I will integrate your ideas. I'm trying to make this new track the best track, not only level wise, but with cool traps and features to the track.

I think you should have a track where the tiling consists of red carpet, brown house bricks, red house roof edges, wooden stakes, castle steps used as floor, castle carpet edges, with random floor designs.

There should be lots of alternate routes on the track where some turns would lead to a dead end.

There should be doors scattered around with signs overhanging them with the text "Hat Shop", with showcharacter npcs running around outside them with the chat "OMG NEW HATS" which you have to dodge, there should be other showcharacters running around various places on the track with chat such as "Can you help me?" or "I don't know what to do" which you have to deliberately drive into and run over to collect dropped gelat, where once you have enough your character will then be surrounded by lots of sparkly light effects.

saying Graal iPhone should also cause an NPC of Thor to appear and start whining
