Hi there, I suspect you've been trying with version 1.0 of keen 6 -- you'll need 1.4 (which for future reference can be found in the collective at zapzot.net :pirate). Here's one with everything set up for you which you'll hopefully have no trouble at all playing: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3584864/AAM...

Oops, those bugs should all be fixed now -- thanks for pointing those out; same download link as in the first post.

Glad you guys are enjoying it so far, and I'll post my impressions, too, as soon as I get around to... actually playing all the levels.

It's been over nine months, but the first Galaxy community pack is: ! ! ! DONE ! ! ! Thanks for submitting so many levels, everyone, the turnout was great, especially for a mod that was harder to level for than the usual Vorticons fare: Ceilick (1 level) Fleexy (1 level) GARGAppleSauce (1 level) Gri...

Have you tried http://files.keenmodding.org/5keen14.zip ? If that still doesn't work... there's always the Keen Collective . :pirate :O Have fun with Keen 9! P.S. Welcome aboard! Be sure to enjoy more mods once you're done with Keen 9 (and maybe even make some yourself) -- there're just so many good...

Right, I've got your level name since you edited the internal name of your level -- that was particularly @ peops who hadn't edited the level name.

Thanks Fleexy, I've got it!

And a note to everyone who's already submitted but hasn't named their level, i.e. Gargz, Kuliwil, and Vbb, along with everyone who has yet to submit: Be sure to let me know if you have a specific name in mind for your level.

We now have eleven levels, one each from: lemm, Keenfan, Ceilick, Gargas, Kuliwil, and VBB; two from Neek; and three (!) courtesy of Gridlock. So we're still waiting on levels from: me (:o), ckguy, maybe TerminILL, and anyone else still on the fence about contributing. So, to everyone who has not do...

You can host your files on mediafire or rapidshare or some similar free file hosting site and send me the link, and be sure to also send me the corresponding maphead file.

The biggest thing to keep in mind is that every gamemaps file has a corresponding maphead file; if you've somehow mixed your files up, then TOM won't be able to load your levels at all. TOM autoloads the maphead file in the directory in which your chosen gamemaps file is. So my advice I guess is fir...

A maphead file always has a corresponding gamemaps file - if you edited the levels before taking them out of the TOM folder, did you put both the maphead and the gamemaps in your mod folder? If that's not the problem, are you running the game from the .exe or the .bat? If you don't run the .bat, whi...

Cool Kuliwil, at least give it a shot - Galaxy leveling's initially a fair bit more intimidating than Vorticoning, but if you look at how everything is put together in the original levels and ask questions here, you should be more than fine. And thanks, Gridlock + neek, I have your extra levels now....

I have your level, neek, thanks! This means we've got six levels so far out of a possible seventeen slots. Nowhere near seventeen people have expressed interest, so there're still spots for anyone who hasn't decided to join yet. We can always release with less than seventeen levels, but I guess we'l...

Lemm: Yes you can (and should) make your level for all three difficulties - be sure to playtest each one. There won't be any other guidelines; go crazy! Keenfan: Oops sorry about that, I completely forgot to mention what to do if TOM doesn't feel like working for you: You'll have to use Keen:Next. H...

Heh, it'd be neat to see more locations of the planets you visit in Keen 9, but I'm, um, kind of tired of levelling with that tileset. :O Including your old levels is a cool idea, but hopefully we'll have so many people participating that there won't be room for those. :dopefish I second you on that...
