Texmaster

I think the optimal "strategy" is to go for the fastest speedcurve you can which will still allow you to reach 999. I think that will usually reap the highest grades.

 

It's my favorite.

 

How do I change the configuration???? I suck with computers, so please explain it very well.

 

Open up Texmaster2009beta2.ini.


Take a look at:

Code:

key_type_pl1 = 1
key_type_pl2 = 2

You can change the values, 1 for player one and 2 for player two in this case, to another between 0-7. Each value has a different scheme or function. Refer to this to decide which to assign:

Code:

;     up   down  left  right A   B   C   D
; type 0  s   x   z   c   b   n   m   SPACE
; type 1  s   x   z   c   m   ;   .   SPACE
; type 2  up   down  left  right KP_num1 KP_num2 KP_num3 KP_num0
; type 3  up   down  left  right z   x   c   v
; type 5  config "key_type5_*****" Refer to "key.html"
; type 6  config "key_type6_*****" Refer to "key.html"
; type 7  disable
; type 4  debug

Type 5 and 6 allow for you to deviate from the predefined keys. You can define the keys here:

Code:

; w a s d j k l ;
key_type5_up = 119
key_type5_down = 115
key_type5_left = 97
key_type5_right = 100
key_type5_a = 106
key_type5_b = 107
key_type5_c = 108
key_type5_d = 32
; ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
key_type6_up = 0
key_type6_down = 0
key_type6_left = 0
key_type6_right = 0
key_type6_a = 0
key_type6_b = 0
key_type6_c = 0
key_type6_d = 0

Refer to the key.html file provided with the distribution to determine the value of the keys. Or refer to this if you don't have the file.

 

Okay, I just got level 500 for the SECOND time in TI sudden, and there aren't any replays.

 

'm trying to edit the config file, but i'm not getting any results, it just keeps on being the same keys.

 

Can you post the contents of your edited file?

 

i like that tune too. the one that bugs me is the first one. It's too darn depressing.

 

New suggestion.


When playing back a replay, place a big indication of the fact that it's a replay on the screen.


This should resolve any possible doubt about any videoed performance.

 

Damn, Fraps does not work with texmaster.

Any suggestions on a good screen recorder?

 

And what about the time ?
2:30 ? 2:35 ?

maybe 2:28:xx like c_t !!

 

Time is like... 2:50 due to being scared to lock in 300+.

 

Code:

[KEYBOARD]
;     up   down  left  right A   B   C   D
; type 0  up   down  left  right a   s   d   f
; type 1  up   down  left  right a   s   d   f
; type 2  up   down  left  right a   s   d   f
; type 3  up   down  left  right a   s   d   f
; type 5  disable
key_type_pl1 = 1
key_type_pl2 = 2

and it doens't change a thing

 

Ah, there's your problem: the things written after the semicolons are comments, they don't affect anything. Instead of changing those values, you're supposed to make key_type_pl1 = 3 or 4 or whichever of the original descriptions you wanted. You might have to go back into the Zip archive and retrieve the original configuration file in order to see what those descriptions were, since you've overwritten them.

 

kapat, have you seen my post (4th post) on this page? I had some instructions for what to do. Hopefully, the wording is not vague.

 

yeah, thanks digital, i fixed it, i couldn't find the key.html


i have 2 suggestions:


posts:

AS thread and programs are updated and re-mirrored, it would be cool if all those remained in the first post. plus any add-ons or whatever. or make a new post explaining whats new and all that and ALSo link in accorande to the main post. that way all the files to be needed aren't scattered all about.


texmaster:

i LOVE this version of tetris, my favorite beside heboris so far. i just wish there was a way to turn off the death effect untill replays or just an option to turn it off. i was practing stacking my t-spin doubles and get to about 2 before i have to retart. and dieing it probably 60% of the practice time. if that could be turned off or have a swtich for it. or just have the "hold key" the "quick restart" key while that game over anumation is going on or something.

 

Quick restart: F11

 

i could kiss you


[sorry you guys, i'm a noob at reading forums, i just found that f1, f2, f3 etc post]

 

lee_n made me download and try Texmaster. Really nice! I've played it for hours. Keep up the good work! =)


...and I want to contribute by offering a mirror for the files on my server (which also made me become a member here in order to post the URL). So, here, have a mirror: http://mirror.meroigo.com/texmaster/
