1  Super Meat Boy / Meat Helping / Level Not Counting As Complete For Steam on: April 18, 2011, 01:54:15 PM
So, after much trial and error and a healthy dose of luck I beat 7-15X Patience (23.14 seconds) today. My completion percentage for Cotton Alley goes up to 70% (huzzah) and when I go to check how my leaderboard position was affected I dont see my time recorded, as if I didn't beat the stage!

What the heck? I was connected to the internet, sure enough... but maybe the connection hiccuped for a brief second? I don't know... but now Im worried I'll never be able to get Golden God.

Someone tell me thats not true.
2  Super Meat Boy / Meat Helping / A Few Levels Giving Me Problems on: April 12, 2011, 08:08:38 PM
I'm getting down to the wire here on the mission to become a Golden God (91% Completion... and a large chunk of that is Skyscraper/The Kid/Meat is Death), but there are a few levels that are giving me FAR more problems then they should and I'm looking for either strategy advice.. or perhaps technical help if maybe it's just the game glitching.

For the record I usually am running on lowdetail.

4-20X - I keep being unable to pass the 4th room with the laser Eye. I can see so plainly what to do: jump over the pit, move to the wall, jump straight up drawing the laser to the block, then loop back around for the key. Nothing I haven't done before.... except the laser won't move fast enough and I get on my way back down... it never even reaches the block. Obviously I can't wall jump since I'll just go into the lava...

5-15X - This one I'm pretty sure is a glitch and I need help fixing it. The maggot stream is moving too fast. Far too fast. Whenever I reach the first low hanging wall I'm stuck waiting for the maggot and the stream kills me before it clears the passage allowing me access. I've looked at videos on youtube and CLEARLY my stream is moving fast than there's since they have time to wait for the maggot. How do I fix that?

5-8X - I will never beat this level. Ever.

Meat Boy = Done, and was relatively easy
= Got it, but it gave me some trouble
= This is next for me. Pretty sure I can get it
= I think I can do this, but its gonna be rough
= I will make an attempt, but I doubt I'm good enough.
= Oh no way. No freaking way.

                       Forest / Hospital / Factory / Hell / Rapture / The End / Cotton Alley
Light World:      Meat Boy    /     Meat Boy     /        /    /        /           /        
 Dark World:      Meat Boy    /         /        /    /        /           /        

Squirrel Boy was giving me some trouble until I realized I could use Veridian for Mystery Spot, thus solving that last jump with no trouble. After that it was pie.

It seems a little weird how easy Dr Fetus Boy feels like it will be to me compare to Missile Boy or Hell Dark World (Zombie? Demon? I can't remember) to me. Maybe thats because thats what I'm currently working on beating for the first time - only No Quarter left. It's only 5 levels and frankly, once you get the hang of it Maze of Ith is pretty easy and, while I died alot on From Beyond, I was drunk on Scotch at the time and it seems liek I think I can make it reliably doable with practice. Detox and/or No Quarter will probably be the first levels in my order just because I really suck at the very beginning of Detox.

That said, first thing is Dead Boy. Then we'll see.

Is anyone can check if the couting of a+/completed levels in super meat world is working pls ? 

Unfortunately no, they still don't work.  Which sucks, that was/is my the main thing I wanted Team Meat to add.  To at the very least bring the PC version up-to-spec w/ the 360 version...

 
It's the fix i'm waiting for too, going to try again my missing no-death runs 
ty o/

Yeah me too... I've been waiting to play the couple of chapters I haven't yet till it actually counts that I beat them. I wish this would get patched in very soon.

Hope so, it's frustrating when you clear a chapter and all levels remains in white box 
<3 A+ 

Me as well. I enjoy alot of the new stuff, but I cant really get into it without that tangible result of seeing the level turn red. I don't need SMW achievements or leaderboards... I just want the completion/A+ recorded or my satisfaction. From Team Meats twitter, it sounds like they WANT to do it, but are trying to figure out how/the best way to. Admittedly, I know LESS than nothing about game programming, but I imagine the difficulty is in the fact that the levels arent actually downloaded to your computer but, rather, played off the server. I guess the options are, then, either Team Meat's server (or Steam's) holding a file for every account with flags for level completion, or the game creating a file on your computer with such flags? I dunno. Hopefully they figure something out, but if not I'll be happy with all they've done for us.
5  Super Meat Boy / Meat Talk / Re: What's your highest leaderboard position on a level? on: April 06, 2011, 09:07:40 AM
My best legitimate position is 92 with a time of 3.80 on 3-7 using Runman. I do have one better bit it's the result of a Naija passthroughwalls glitch. I didn't know about it at the time and she passed through the wall and right into Bandage girl before I could do anything. I'm not proud of that one,
but 3-7 makes me feel good.

Having accomplished Wood, Needle and Salt Boy, I've been working on Squirrel Boy (I'm close to pulling it off) in between attempts at The Kid (nowhere close, I can't even get up the second shaft on the first stage). I don't think I'll ever even attempt either version of Hell... not because of the skill involved or the challenge but because my game FREQUENTLY glitches on those horizontally moving platforms - the random death when passing under a low ceiling glitch - which adds a completely unfair element to the whole thing. So unless either I find a workaround that fixes that, or Team Meat finds a way to patch that away, I'll never bother.

The others may be harder, but at least they are fair.
7  Super Meat Boy / Meat Talk / Re: The new update and Potato Boy! on: April 01, 2011, 11:01:04 PM
Potato Boy spawns MUCH faster than Meat Boy and I'm worried it could lead to some leaderboard breaking. I noticed it on Expert Remix 19 - AAAAH. All you have to do is run to the right as the level loads and grab the key, you'll just fall to the lower level before the laser activates. I know SMW isn't saving times right now, but I imagine this could be abused on actual main game levels liek Adversary.

At least he'll be gone soon.

Wait.

The editor really is out? This isn't a joke? Do I call out of work or not?
9  Super Meat Boy / Meat Talk / Re: super meat world should be out soon on: April 01, 2011, 09:15:09 AM
Well, the upside of the joke is that I don't have to call my job, tell them I'm sick, hop off the bus and catch one heading back home to play the new levels.

So there's that
10  Super Meat Boy / Tech Support / Dr Fetus not following/keeping up on: March 28, 2011, 06:51:55 PM
So, I have no idea what to do. I'm finally on Dr Fetus' boss fight and I made it all the way through the level... only to realize when I got to the final room that Dr Fetus was no longer with me. He DOES spawn at first because he shoots at me, but somewhere along the way I 'lose' him.

This means I can't win. I hit the two buttons and the pit opens up.. but he's not there to fall into it so, eventually, the saws move again and kill me.

What do I do?

EDIT: It appears like he's movign very slowly.. the saw moves past hime right in the begining
