Worms 2 "Home Made" Terrain

[Nicky Dez]

Recently I was reading something from a WA help site or something... can't remember - but anyway it said that you can add your own backgrounds to WA that you made on paint and use them in-game. I was just wondering if you could do this with worms 2 and add them into the terrain editor. Its probably unlikely, but its worth a try. I suppose you'd have to get the code though...hmm i've just had a thought - it'd be kinda cool if someone made like, some kind of program where you upload your background image you made on paint and then it like... gives you a code... but that would envolve somekind of background database for worms 2 which would be difficult. But anyway thanks in advance. :cool:

You can import black and white images into W2, and the game will paint them in one of its schemes and add objects to them. But you can't import a colour picture like you can in W:A. (At least, I don't think you can.) You can send the image to friends, but not by writing down a landscape codes, as 99.99% of the theoretically possible landscapes don't have a code which would generate them, and in any case anyone who could write an efficient algorithm to find the code for any given landscape would be wasted making computer games and would be far better emploed raking in billions as a code-breaker.

I may be wrong, but I think Nicky Dez is speaking about the terrain textures and/or the parallax background.
(Like the "Tools" terrain texture which Deadcode has implemented in one of the latest W:A beta updates.)

Hmm i see where your getting to. Only a complete retard would do such a thing as doing such a thing...(?). Where would you put these grayscale images anyway? (whereabouts in the W2 data folder or sub folders)
