The word is that an editor will be included on the disc with Tron 2.0, so we here at Tron-Sector are getting ready for it with new Forums for Design topics.

Go ahead and use this Forum for talking about what we all want to make when we get our hands on it!

Can't Wait!

If I had an editor for TRON 2.0, I'd like to make some levels from the original movie and try for a representation of TRON-Sector. But, I hope there's a good help screen with focused instructions in layman's terms. Maybe a checklist could be incorporated into the instructions allowing you create your levels and characters easily.

Greetings, I was a level designer on Tron 2.0. I have since moved on to another position in the game industry at another company.

Dedit the level editor for all of the Monolith engine games didn't change too much between the release of No One Lives Forever 2 and Tron 2.0. The only real changes were changes to make it easier to debug a level and performance and stability issues.

If you want to see how the editor for Tron 2.0 works and you have No One Lives Forever 2, download and install the editor and take a look.

Most of the my levels in Tron 2.0 were designed at least initially in Dedit, they were later detailed in Maya and then imported into Dedit. (Maya is a professional 3D rendering and animation package.)

You can use Dedit to build an entire Tron level and most likely the exporter for Maya will be included on the rare chance that you might have it.

Can't wait for the fans to get their hands on the tools.

See you on the game grid.

Greetings program!

I hope you have great success with your game, and others in the future. Personally, I'm glad that Atari is still strong today (I still have my atari system ) and I've seen nothing but good from Atari lately. You go!

Pay attention to the tron20.net forums. They're repeatedly updating us on when we can expect word back about the mod tools. To help you out in the meantime, we should hear news about it sometime during the week, perhaps the next.

I just found an old comic book with ads for 80's cartoons in it, like Pole Position, Kidd Video and even Qbert!

I'd love to make a Tron level designed like Qbert, and maybe even have the disks move like it too!

Believe it or not, the programmer who wrote Q-Bert used to work at Disney Interactive a few years ago...hello Warren Davis, where ever you are

I may be mistaken, but a series of rings that looks suspisciously like the firewall puzzle appears in the concept art, doesn't it?

It's not coming out for X-Box.
