le717 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 First, IXS broke absolutely, except when rio played it, ( ) Then it would never fix for me (but still would for rio), then the Island was upside down, and the camera messed up (got video, BTW), then my computer started freaking out, and was trying to compress the 7 GB video, all the while Nubby was wondering why you always find something in the last place you look. It was crazy. And as jamesster already told me, the Island really isn't upside down, I instead fell through it, since they are double sided. But when I recorded this, it seemed like it was upside down to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeabodySam Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 It seems that you've stumbled upon the leaked beta of the upcoming Wii U game, Super LEGO Island Galaxy. lol username, Fluffy Cupcake, aidenpons and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lu9 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 First off, why the hell would LEGO/Silicon Dreams make the Island double sided?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brickulator Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 First off, why the hell would LEGO/Silicon Dreams make the Island double sided?! Isn't it just the textures that are double-sided, rather than the whole island? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lol username Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 First off, why the hell would LEGO/Silicon Dreams make the Island double sided?!They didn't. It's simply how the game renders things - the back faces of all the polygons are rendered as well as the front. Most games cull the back faces and only show the front, making things invisible from inside and whatnot, but some don't. Nothing wrong with it, just how they chose to do things. Isn't it just the textures that are double-sided, rather than the whole island?... What are you talking about? This has nothing to do with the textures, they typically don't determine those sorts of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brickulator Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 ... What are you talking about? This has nothing to do with the textures, they typically don't determine those sorts of things.It's hard to tell from the video, and this has never happened to me but I assumed the "upside down" effect was just a result of falling through the ground and seeing the island from the inside. The island model is obviously hollow and it would make sense for both sides of the surface to be textured, no? Isn't that pretty common in games...? Looking at the video again it does seem like some of the models - rocks, plants etc - are either "doubled-sided" or just sticking through the ground. *sees the other quote you replied to* Oh, that's exactly what I just said -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aokpisz Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Yeah, I think I remember some sections of LU being like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lol username Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Oh yes, LU had an absolute ton of places where you could get under or outside the playable parts of the map... You could find some pretty crazy stuff. Like, underneath the LEGO Club space station, there was a random flat plane of grass with a single Skunkbuster on it. Don't ask me why.

Aokpisz Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Designers: Hmmm, we're bored. Let's stick a otherwise unused model under this Space Station, even though no one can see it! jammesster: Hey guys, check out this freaky thing! Designers: Damn. Yhnmko1: help! im stuck!

Lair Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Designers: Hmmm, we're bored. Let's stick a otherwise unused model under this Space Station, even though no one can see it!I'm fairly sure they didn't do it intentionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
