Congratulations to Tpcool for being registered on this site for ten years now! I meant to send something the day it happened, but the day after will have to do.

Congrats on 10 years. I remember when 2011 members were viewed as young whippersnappers. It's crazy to think that there are now so few active members on these forums who've been around longer than I have, and half of them are 2011 members.

Thanks for the shoutout, Pummel! The 10 year anniversary feels extra special now. :oops: Same Hayden. I remember first joining and immediately knowing I wanted to stay on for a long time so I could be one of the cool veterans after doing a ton of lurking haha.

At this point Cave Story’s not very present on my mind anymore, but a lot of the folks here come to mind every now and then. I do wish I’d interacted more, as now I’m quite distant from the whole thing.
Nonetheless I hope you’re all doing splendid (or at least moderately splendid)

Great to hear from you again Vinyl. I still have enough memories of you to remember your old username and skills, so at the very least I feel like you made an impact. Love you guys! :D

Yeah! I mean since then I’ve mostly moved on to chiptune which has been great (wish I could say I was still writing originals but, alas). Glad I’m somewhat memorable :mahin:
There was a discord server for y’all, right? Still goin along in there?

Yup. The discord server is still around. Activity has also been slower there, but there are at least a few people active. If you're interested, here's the link to join it: https://discord.gg/0l4989hIisKn4fJ6

So ok guys, the other day I tried to make a profile post comment, and I had some really cool stuff to say about what Mint was talking about, but APPARENTLY there's a 420 character limit on profile posts for replies, and I was SUPER pissed. I had to re-word my comment to make what I was going to say look like a lot of unrelated stuff and like I was a drunk rambling about random crap. ANNOYING af. I can't believe that I have to use shorter sentences and not be able to drop super long replies to posts that have meaningful content. I thought that this place encouraged discussion smh.

I'm unsure how to tell you that both my initial post, and my follow up comment were both more than 420 characters. (andy literally fixed that right before I posted, and he asked me to test it to make sure the limit was increased/removed)

Here's the two major issues with it that were pointed out years ago while it was under development by Leo, and to this day they still haven't been fixed (Leo moved on to Minecraft modding and Noxid moved on to game dev).

1. Deletion of all vanilla maps will corrupt the mod executable.
2. The built in guides do not work on Windows 7.

It's also been packaged with redundant stuff like JRE vs No-JRE, and a version of BL was included that allows four layers of tiles to be used, even though there was no hack publically distributed for the feature, making it useless.

v500 can already do everything that v511 can do, including modding CSE2, it is more stable in terms of the programming, and if you are scared of not having the hackinator hacks in the version, you can always transfer the hacks folder to the new directory, Hackinator has been a feature since v404, there is no reason to think why the xmls can't be read. And even if you want to mod Cave Story + (even though it's been severely recommended against doing so), v451 can still do the job.

Oh ok, so I've been using the v511 recently just becauseof the more Hackinator stuff so if I transfer that over to v500 i shouldnt notice any difference?

If I've already used v511 is that going to mess up my mod because of the "1. Deletion of all vanilla maps will corrupt the mod executable. "
TLinkan

If you haven't deleted every map (including Map 0), then you're fine. And yeah, there is zero difference on the Hackinator, it's been the same since it was properly implemented in v404.

How do people feel about (mostly) vanilla mods nowadays

Wow that's, actually really spot on there, BLink. It would be nice to see good vanilla mods again though, best to start by doing it oneself ;)

I think with how mods with hacks, hack tools, and new engines become more and more impressive, it allows people to try new things and create more unique experiences. We've seen CSBDs and the like, sequel mods, and others doing more unique ideas in Cave Editor and Booster's Lab' but with these new tools modders can share mods and even new hacks and demos.

The time to be a modder has been easier than ever, especially if you want to make something new and unique that stands out.

I don't think vanilla modding is on it's way out or anything, I see it as simply evolving; it's cool to see what people can do with the basics, but I personally find it vastly more interested to see what we haven't been shown before! Especially with mod accessible hacks and tools.

I'm sorry if my games were something that made you experience any sort of trauma in your childhood. Dealing with emotional scars that may develop during your younger years can be difficult to overcome.

If I have impacted you negatively, in ways that effected you beyond the scope of the mod(s) I've created, (even if you've already overcome the emotional hurdles caused by it) I formally apologize with the highest amount of sincerity I can, for any discomfort I may have caused.
