Coolmon is now an official member of Jazz 2 City! He will be helping out with the Information Center and maybe the Links. You may also see him do some occasional posting on the news. Welcome to J2C, Coolmon!

As a gift to everyone, I've decided to reveal one of the many MCEs (Multiple-Combination-Events). These MCEs can produce things like falling jazz 2 logos, jazz ghosts, mines, guns... etc. Since a lot of people know how to make the logos, I've posted a short tutorial about the jazz ghosts. For you people who *really* use JCS, you should be able to figure out how to make more MCEs by comparing the falling logo and the ghost. But I'll leave that up to you. Right now you probably want to stop listening to me raddle on babbling; and click here to go to the tutorial. Or something like that.

Ever wanted a real race? Lots of levels with tons of action in them? Not to have to play the some level five times over, instead to have 5 fresh laps? Great use of tilesets and some truly great special effects? A race that is totally enjoyable with non-stop action and level after level of fun? Coming in 1999, probably in February, but maybe earlier, I will release a ten level race tournament pack. It will contain the best race levels ever to be seen! I am in the process of making them. (I am Another Jazz 2 fan). So far I've finished 4.5 of them. They are all made with MEZ tilesets because they are the best!! They also feature 5 totally different laps per level!!! That's like 50 EPIC RACE LEVELS!!!!!!! I will release screenshots soon.

The coolest level which I am working on in this pack is the Puzzle of the Wierd. It is so cool! (That's the level that is half done) It is also humongous, around 400 by 400 in size!! This level will be a real treat, that's why it's the ninth level in the pack!!

Some people might have seen the first three levels in battle mode on the internet. The preview of the pack!! If you played them and enjoyed them, then you'll love the tournament pack!! With 7 more, and better, levels which can be played as they truly were meant to in race mode, this pack is well worth the wait!!

12/22/98 - 18:30 - 102-Level Pack!!

Roaster has informed me that his upcoming Single Player episode, "The Long Trip Home," is now slated for 102 levels with brancing paths, 3 endings, a cool new tile set, and a new JCS event called "Explode Scenery"!!!

I've received the first few levels from the pack for beta testing, and I can safely say that they are some of the best levels I've ever played! I believe there is going to be a demo for "The Long Trip Home," so look out for that.

12/22/98 - 00:58 - Dirty Rotten Gif =)

Well, after working much too long on that animating gif you see above; I finally called it quits. I just cannot find out how I got that crazy w to "reflect" over there.. I can't repeat it, even using the exact same stuff... it's totally weird, and I've spent ages trying to figure it out. Oh well, I figure it looks cooler that way anyway :-] It's for use as a banner to link to J2C.... I think; or something like that =) The gif file might be a bandwidth sucker for some of you; or others just might not like it. So leave me a line; and let me know what you think.

- DethMan

Sorry for any inconvience this might've caused (some got it to work, others didn't..).

Make sure you have the latest version of WinAMP btw... some of the earlier versions messed up trying to play certain files.

Speaking of all these "wows," we've just posted the music for HH98 (White Hare). We are the -only- site who has the one piece of HH98 music in .IT format... download it!

This of course should only be downloaded and listened to by people who currently own HH98; we don't intend to infringe on any copyright, and expect all people who download it already own HH98. It is only for their convience of personal listening pleasure.
