Title: Upgraded Energy Form?
Post by: prestart on January 30, 2010, 04:41:07 am
As I use the Native MOD... while trying out that boss form 3(well, still can't find a way to defeat him)...I accidentally activate the entity named" energyformupgraded" or something else with an icon of the white bead. I try to spawn it in the game and use the energy form to light it up... then it says"your energy form.....upgraded"(I forgot that thing...) from that point the pause menu(appeared by pressing escape )appears a blank square below the LI crystal on naija's neck. I thought it could be an image with a broken link. What are these things on earth? Besides... during the game (not mod)...Never have I ever found a bead like this...where is it?

postscript:not only energy form ...there seems a beast form upgrade as well..I tried it out and then it jumped out the windows message box saying "could not find the file ***.lua"

Possibly those are things that were removed from the game. Unless it is talking about the effects of volcano roll and shark soup...

I've found the effect out... as naija's energy form has been "upgraded"...the whirlpool color during rotation becomes gold... and when the gold whirlpool touches a school of fish... all of them are gone... besides, it seems I need less shots to defeat an enermy.

So you mean just spinning (moving the mouse in a circle or holding 'r') is an attack? Far out lol that's new.

A very nice find indeed, could maybe be a nice addon to some mods.

To make it clear, there are 2 energy upgrades;
One, in the form of a pearl, you have to hit it and then you have a nice trail of destruction when rolling
Two, as a white square, increases the attack of the energy blasts, how much it increases I do not know.

I'd love to get some input from Alec on this. O:

Just cause Perdo Pedro asked so nicely I decided to put down a screen, also because people probably don't believe.

First pic, showing in the editor on what spot an stuff, name is self-explanatory.

Then, after placing it and having attacked it with a charged shot like every other pear we go this message. The pearl was more like a pearl before I attacked it, but also red.

Finally I swirl around while on my right a... I still don't know what those things are... Either way, it's destroyed by just spinning.

I coulda had a pic with the pause screen on it with the white square blot to the right of where Li's crystal would be, but I didn't think it'd be very useful.

P.S. Pics are clickable. If thumbnails don't work, please let me know, I put them there in the most unusual way ever.

I suspect it got cut to not make the game too easy. Or just to have mod-only features? I can imagine that mods get boring when it's all the same all over again.

I very much wish to see this implemented somehow into a mod or somesuch.  Has anyone figured out to make a full game modification while I've been away?  Like a new adventure?  But heck I'd love to just have this feature in the main game.  Plus there's be one more thing to collect, and I love collecting stuff.
