Description

These WR tables are for Moposite Playing Levels, which you can find from moposite playing levels section. This level pack consists of over 140 short höylä levels. The main idea has been to make a level for each playing type.

At the moposite page you can see the list which describes how each level could be driven fast and what's the point in the lev. Each lev is there for a reason, because each one of them presents a unique trick, a driving style or a bike controlling technique. The point hasn't been to make all kinds of levels, but to include all kinds of playing styles. All of the levels are very short and höylish, so this level pack is like a dream for all the höylers. Though the descriptions are given in moposite, the point isn't to do exactly as told below, but to drive as fast as possible. That means that you are allowed to drive a wr with any imaginable style that is possible in the lev. The target recs certainly describe the styles better than these descriptions. So the best way to play these levs is probably watch the target recs, copy the styles and do the höyl. Some levels or styles might fit to many categories. In that case, they are only in one category.

Each category gets more difficult to the end. In each level there are two times, a target time and a dream time. A target time is a time which you should beat quite easily if you have the correct style. After beating the target time you can think that you have successfully learned the trick which you had to make in that lev. The dream time is much harder, and you can only beat it with a really good rec. The dream time is not necessarily driven with same style as the target rec. Though we have to remember that there are much different kinds of players out there with different amount of skills and in some levels the dream time may seem impossible and in some levels ridiculous. And you should know that we haven't been höyling these levs very much, so maybe we have missed a style somewhere and the dream time is relatively bad. In some levels it might be needed to do some elma tuning (vsync etc) to beat the dream time. The target recs are public and meant to be example recs, where you can see the styles. Our current plan is to keep the dream replays secret, at least for some time.

The level's filename pattern is PLxxyy.lev, where yy is the level number in that category and xx is the category's 2 first letters, except for Picking, which is PC, because PI is reserved for Piping, and Brutal volting, which is BV, because BR is reserved for Braking. You should name your recs as PLxxyyzz.rec, where zz are the 2 first letters of your nick (as usual), for example PLAC01ze.rec. Please don't use longer rec names.

The levels are made mainly by me (zebra). In past years many other people have also been involved. The project started in 2002 when BarTek and Abula came with an idea of Moposchool which would teach tricks to newbies. Rigger and ciph were also helping them but as usually the project was taking time one more month after another. When Paprika was published the concept of the entire section was radically changed and I started to lead the project. Luther, axxu and Abula have been helping in the second period of the project. The dream replays are mainly driven by axxu (some are mine). The target replays are driven by Abula. At first they were driven by me but Abula thought that they were too hard so he drove little easier times for you to beat.

Name your recs as PLxxyyzzzzzz.rec, where PLxxyy is the name of the level and zzzzzz is your nick (or beginning of it). You can use belma and save long rec names if you like. So the rec names could be for example PLAC01zebra.rec or PLBR03zeb.rec.

I also made my mergestats -program to be able to make statistics about the best times. You can use mergestats by downloading the latests .txt file from this page (see above), pressing "1" in mergestats and then typing the table name to the program, eg. playing_table_001.txt. After that you just press "1" again and add your own levstats.txt to it. After adding your times, the program shows which levs you have best times in.

You can see the best times tables above. Also team statistics will be there. They will be updated weekly or monthly or as often as some times are sent to me. Please send in your times even if you have finished only few levels.

Note that in time, when we find out more tricks, the level pack will expand. That means that you shouldn't look at your total time very closely, because when new levels will come, your total time will change. At the moment the requested levels are vertical pipe driving, alobounce, ground bounce, start launcher and stretch hang (at least those). If you have a new idea which is not in any of the levels, please send it (lev and rec) to me or to Abula. If the level pack grows up, it will be clearly announced in this page. And hopefully it won't expand very frequently. Because of the expanding, I won't keep any 'minute limit breakers' table.

Sending e-mail

Unfortunately we don't have here so fancy system as skintatious, but I think we will manage with oldschool e-mail system if we use levstats and mergestats -programs. When sending your times, you have to send a levstats -file containing your times! Don't send .lev files, only the levstats file and .rec files are enough. Send your recs to zebra@mbnet.fi. If you don't want to send all your rec files (they can be big files) check (manually or with mergestats, the instructions are above) in which levels you have best times. In other words, you don't have to send your recs in levels where you don't have best times (world records). Though if some time seems suspicious (like 0.01 from current WR), I might ask you for a replay. You can do the required levstats file with with levstats -program (see below). Any kind of bugs or playing with nitro patch isn't allowed. It would be easier for me if you renamed your stat file to levstats_xxx.txt where xxx is your nick. And you can zip all or any of the files you send. Also tell in your mail your nick, team and nick in stats file.

An example mail:

To: zebra@mbnet.fi
Subject: Playing levels
Nick: jonsta
Team: TAP
Nick in stat file: jonsterion
Attachments: levstats_jonsta.txt, jonstas_playing_recs.zip


If something is still unclear, ask me (zebra@mbnet.fi) or zebraTAP or harrii in IRCnet. And if you find something wrong in this page, please give feedback. Also you are welcome to join the channel #playinglevels in IRCnet if you want to discuss something about these levels or just have fun :) You can also upload the levstats and recs to me in irc or mopolauta if you find that easier.

Enjoy the levels :) If you like longer levels, try my uni level pack. If you are in favor of pipe levs, try my pipo level pack.
