[center][img]http://i.imgur.com/7wHNLyz.png[/img] Welcome, MFGG! Welcome to the first ever completed 3D Mario fangame here on MFGG! As far as I know, at least. This is Paper Mario 3D Land, and as the name implies it combines the gameplay mechanics of Super Mario 3D Land with the charming visuals of the Paper Mario series. Run and jump through 16 unique levels from start to finish through gorgeous landscapes filled with all kinds of obstacles. Not only does this game feature never before seen mechanics from the Mario franchise, but it also offers a wide variety of new stuff, including never before seen power-ups.

Not only does this power-up make all kinds of traps easier to deal with by giving you extra air time, but it also enables you to take several small and maybe not so small shortcuts.

Using this power-up you can bypass several hazards and access otherwise inaccessible areas. While performing the digging attack your attack power also increases so it becomes easier to take out tougher enemies. While underground enemies also won't notice and take chase of you.

The red one boosts Mario's attack power, whereas the blue one raises Mario's defense.

YES! At long last, the greatest fangame yet has been completed!

WHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA lolodajfyeseyeyeyeyeseeeyeyweesse Trying it now. EDIT: I tried. It's awesome but there are some annoying problems. The game runs very slow on my mother's computer (It's not an old or bad computer, but it's not for gaming.). That's really annoying. I also can't pass the part after checkpoint in the second level. It starts to lag in there, then the game freezes, however, I can still hear sound and play. But since I can't see anything, I die. My suggestion is optimizing the game more and adding a low graphics option. Also it's annoying to can't see fps. Other than that, it's a pretty good game. Wait, I forgot that this computer has two graphics card. I tried with the other one. The game doesn't freeze anymore and runs a little faster but it's still pretty slow. (unless you play in windowed mode but I hate playing like that.) Oh also blocks (both big colorful ones and smaller ones) are clashing with Paper Mario style. They look like from another game. But it's not a very big issue. I'll try it on my computer as fast as I can. (several months, lol)

Did you try enabling frameskipping?

Judging by the screenshots (I haven't played it yet but I will soon enough), this looks amazing. Although Mors is right, the conflicting texture resolution is a little off putting. Would it not have been better to use pmtyd resources for mario and the enemies?

the level design doesn't really compliment the way the camera is set up. for one, you should never have to move exclusively down/south with this type of camera. it's very easy to get blindsided by something that way. another thing is obscuring obstacles with walls (i.e the rollers in 1-2) is also a pretty bad idea because, again, you can get blindsided. other than that, the way mario handles is really weird. i expected a platforming game where mario handles like in PM64 and that's what i got and honestly that not what i wanted to see. it's really weird and stiff.

It doesn't occur often and when it does it's not like anything particularly unfair is going on. About the roller in 1-2 I agree, but I was unable to change the camera without it blindsighting you in another way, but if you use the camera buttons to your advantage you can see it in advance. About the physics I really don't see your complaints. The movement is precise and it works well and nobody else has complained about it. If you want more slippery physics or anything well then I guess so be it, but I think they're just fine.

I think the music should've been in a music folder rather than the main directory. Also the music seems a bit clashing in quality, you go from something that sounds tinny and mono, to high quality and stereo. I have 2 issues so far. The game defaults to controller use it seems, which is a no-no as far as i'm concerned, and I can't seem to find a way to switch to keyboard controls instead. The second issue is it uses the B button to jump and X button for running and fireballs, which are on the opposite side of each other, and can't be configured, at least as far as I can tell.

I gotta admit I didn't test gamepad input because I don't have a gamepad.

[quote="Kritter"]Change B to A and it should be just fine.[/quote]Alright, I updated the file. Should work now. Thanks for pointing it out.

the game doesn't seem to recognise my gamepad

You changed X to A instead of B :whoops: It still works better, but it doesn't feel as natural.

I really liked it! And lol nice [ispoiler]Charlie the Duck checkpoint[/ispoiler] I dont have too much to say, except it gets slow sometimes and really fast sometimes :P

For anyone experiencing lag, you can change the frameskip on the go in the pause menu (I was running into random lag so I asked DJane to add that in).

Got through the first world tonight and I gotta say, this is pretty well made. A few comments: -Like mentioned before, the graphics can clash a bit. TTYD might've been better to use, but it's not the unbearable. -That first boss was great, but if you try to pause during the fight it creates a game-crashing error. I was also in midair at that time, if that's relevant. -Liking the new suits so far, though the mole suit has some jagged lines around the mouth and I personally feel the cotton suit could've been replaced by something similar, like the already-existing cloud suit. -Heavy lag in full screen, though windowed is a bit better. The World 1 castle lags hard no matter which way you play, though. [quote="Chaoxys"]For anyone experiencing lag, you can change the frameskip on the go in the pause menu (I was running into random lag so I asked DJane to add that in).[/quote] I didn't try this yet, so maybe it's the fix I need.

I don't get any lag at all, though I have a pretty beefy computer. I have to agree with these issues Willsaber posted on the mainsite, at least from my play of it so far: [quote] - forced gamepad controls on me. No user should ever have to unplug their gamepad just to play a game. - Hammer Bros. throw hammers while I'm jumping on them. I know they're a historically annoying enemy, but come on! [/quote]

[quote="Burning Fox"]-Like mentioned before, the graphics can clash a bit. TTYD might've been better to use, but it's not the unbearable.[/quote] Jeeze, glad to know all my efforts on the sprites managed to be just higher of "unbearable". Nah, I'm kidding, but the issue of using TTYD sprites would be in getting the custom sprites needed. Aside from the Up Cakes and power ups, not much shows up in world 1, but as you go on, you will see more and more custom graphics in terms of sprites. This especially holds true for the final boss. [quote] -Liking the new suits so far, though the [ispoiler]mole[/ispoiler] suit has some jagged lines around the mouth [/quote] Really? I'm looking at the sheet now and I don't see it, granted, the game does seem to stretch the sprites around at times so that may be the cause. [quote] and I personally feel the [ispoiler]cotton[/ispoiler] suit could've been replaced by something similar, like the already-existing cloud suit. [/quote] But no other power up works in that exact manner that I can remember. Honestly, if we had used an exsisting power up and reworked it, we'd probably have more people complaining that the power up doesn't work like it's supposed to and that we should have used a new one.

[quote="DJ Coco"]Did you try enabling frameskipping?[/quote] :huh: Yeah, now it's better. :laugh: Also why people keep saying "Use PMTYD sttle!!!"? This is a completed game. Don't expect radical changes. But I'm still waiting an update with Paper Mario styled blocks.
