new and old viewers, i am curious to know if you would prefer this edited-down video (1 hour 10 minutes) vs. the full VODs (6+ hours) either way, thanks for having you 👍
I probably wouldn't have watched or clicked if it was a 6+ hour VOD but that's just me, I'm sure a lot would like the raw version. This edit did seem perfect for the ranking style of video though.
ok this vid, the edited down... but a gameplay vid of like zero stats... obviously NO editing... or next to no. so it depends on the vid. just feel the vid. if it feels like itll be boring if u dont edit it down, then edit it down
you not liking cruise ship or oilrig is frankly a skill issue. this whole video was frustrating to watch because you don't like anything that isnt essentially a level with an outer circle brainless robot line.
I am glad you uploaded this because I finally get to respond to it in a way you can actually see, I ported mecklenburg to thugpro, the first version was ported back in 2019, I ported a entirely different version of the map 2 years later, and improved on it heavily, reworked the entire level all over again, it took me 6 months to work on this newer version and I added a lot to it and tried to make it more thugpro friendly. I had a lot of feed back from the community and with that feed back I reworked it over, and over, and over again. Cwalk pushed hard, without him and the feedback I got from the community at large there wouldn't be a mecklenburgv5_a6 port to thugpro. There is a little more to it than just that too that motivated me. The orignal map was from a halflife 1 mod called the specialist, it was used for roleplay servers and was extremely popular. There was about 50 or so different versions of the same map, and offshoots and reworks/remakes of it for the specialist. Almost all of them have been lost to the seas of time on the net most were on fileplanet before the mass purge, or the various server websites before they all died. Back in the day I use to be a admin on a server that hosted v5_a6, and I use to make custom models and plugin mods for it. This was my outlet after thaw died and no one was interested in downhill jam glitches, and ATG fell apart. The regular mecklenburg was my first attempt at making a thugpro level. I don't know why it got popular but it did, in my eyes it was a mess so much so I always wanted to make it better, which is where the newer version comes in. The newer version has a heck of a lot more than the older one ever did and I learned a lot from working on it. It has everything I wanted out of it, and it took prying details out of others who were less than willing to give any information to get what I needed out of it, except sk8ace he helped me with the sound. I credited everyone who helped in any form or way within the map hidden. I did add custom goals to it, and custom lighting effects for time of day and vehicles to single player, and holiday event scripts. There is so much added to the level that it would take me hours to explain it all in its simplest form in text. There is a reason it doesn't use prx and I released the .blend file with it on thpx. I also did this so others could learn especially when it comes to custom goals a lot of the people that actually have them in their maps were reluctant to tell me anything about getting them working and it is stupid simple once you do. I find a lot of the resources online lacking for map creation, the only exception to that is sattan's tutorials really, and even then its definitely just the thinnest layer of frost on a iceberg. It is definitly not mirrored and in HD. Some of the textures are actually lower in resolution to help optimize the level. The only thing I wish I could have gotten baked lighting in but the level but even after optimization I think the level was at its limit and the baked lighting wasn't working right with any of the meshes from the port, only things I added after which looked out of place so I didn't. Its not that I am upset by your rating, I get it, I was a little at first but then I understood why and no matter how much I thps-ify that map someone will always not like it, but it is very different from the other one. If I want to make a good level for thugpro I would want to do it from scratch. The issue is I have kinda moved on from that point now. Also with the current way of putting sounds in the maps there is no way to actually adjust volume as far as I know of.
I liked the video, thank you for sharing it. Thanks to all the creators and to cwalker for the collection. I think some parks are not designed for high combos but rather for artistic purposes or as a recreation of other video games, etc. Maybe I should reinstall THUG Pro sometime.
Los Santos east for beeing a Proof of concept of what the Game can handle iam Happy tonget a b xD sady incouldnt add more , Blender would only Export crashing Maps at that Point
it'd be cool if you did a video or a handful of videos where you talk about level design in tony hawk games. it could be a good resource for people trying to make custom levels and really improve the quality of custom levels coming out of the community :)
thanks for checking out my level. i wanted to get a better port of the movie lot made, but the level import tool is not perfect (shoutouts to morten for making it though) - had to do some hex editing to get half of the level to show up. i still want to do it and the other aggressive inline levels justice but i lack the knowledge to make a more complete level import tool..... still, it's always cool to see people playing a level you ported. cheers!
I might not play any of these levels my PC sucks, but now I have a good grasp on what's good in a Pro Hawk Tony Skater level. Thank you for your information!
Btw Mecklenburg is from TSRP - the roleplay servers on a Half Life mod called The Specialists. Pretty cool and surprising to see it again. I spent a good portion of time as a 12 year old larping as a mafioso in that city lmao
Ok, so I'm not tech savvy in the slightest but this has just hit my radar and i desparately want to play. I've been online watching vieo after video trying to download just the game, haven't even gotten that far. I need help please
HEY! You made your guy like the dude from the Demos of THUG 1, THUG 2, and THAW! I always use to call him ''Sun Hat Guy" and I would deck out like him for Story Modes of THUG 1 and THUG 2.
school remix is actually quite good. plays well with boostplants and buttslaps. i always thought it was one of the better custom levels. actually i really think it is the best custom level.
1:13:51 you should just politely do that next time, “what would you have done differently to make it work with the added realism? Curious to your insight” I would love to read the responses though so I’m just being entirely selfish lol
new and old viewers, i am curious to know if you would prefer this edited-down video (1 hour 10 minutes) vs. the full VODs (6+ hours)
either way, thanks for having you 👍

Tier list videos are probably best edited down. Challenge and general play through videos I definitely like watching with minimal edits.
1+ hour
When it comes to discussions in the same format such as a tier list; the edited down video works better. Always love watching your videos, amigo
ok this vid, the edited down... but a gameplay vid of like zero stats... obviously NO editing... or next to no. so it depends on the vid. just feel the vid. if it feels like itll be boring if u dont edit it down, then edit it down
I think it would be a great stream if you made a level live, it would be really interesting.
That would took multiple streams on several weeks / months depending on the type of level, it's really time consuming 😅
you not liking cruise ship or oilrig is frankly a skill issue. this whole video was frustrating to watch because you don't like anything that isnt essentially a level with an outer circle brainless robot line.
The 97 that Metacritic gave THPS3 and GTA3 was a way of giving those games a 100. Because 97 + 3 = 💯.
I'd watch a review of thps 1+2 remake create-a-park levels. love ur insight into what makes a good map flow-.
Hey just now seeing this on YT :)
Thanks for checking out the pack!

can u do all the gapes next time

"Full send, grandpa, let's go to the X" is my new favorite andythps inside joke
Finally, more long form style from Andy Tony Hawk's Pro Skater himself that i missed live
OYOOO letts go andy
The Larxian THPG maps are definitely my favorite. Lots of cool stuff, good flow, plus they are all wallride hacked.
THPS tips With AndyTHPS, i miss that intro lol
An hour went by like *that*. Fun video, though I think I’d like to see the longer form version too
Make a level live. Would be a great interactive experience for your viewers
I thought the point of leading into walls to encourage more wall plants
(gc) EvilGod was the OG Goat of map creation on the original games.
You know when Andy pulls up paint to show map composition - its serious! 😄🤝
Made my day
S tier video right here.
"i made this map for an actual tony game, S tier"
bro has never played gmod damn
Bro, Oil Rig got ROBBED. Had so much fun on that map back in the day. Manhattan got robbed too, even in S tier, it should be SSS.
shoutout to pizza, man
ps - i like the edited-down videos as long as there's not too much loss of quality content
no way. does the Baltimore map have the famous sandy hills downer park from lansdowne?
I might not play any of these levels my PC sucks, but now I have a good grasp on what's good in a Pro Hawk Tony Skater level. Thank you for your information!

I rank Mat Hoffman 2 OKC S Tier for one reason that wasn't shown: You can Natas Spin on a bike, both on the seat and the handles.
Just spent 5 hrs making a level for you based on this. Just needs 2 tweaks. Next is a school mash, lmk which segments you want incorporated
London isn't in MHPB2 I have never seen that version of London (there was a London Underground in MHPB1 but it is underground and a different map)
love ur insight into what makes a good map flow-
Make BMX XXX Bronx nyc map and skate2 maps like fun track and sv stadium
someone should port de_rats from counter strike 1.6 it would be S tier
I enjoyed this video soooooo much man I love you.
such a great time watching you judge some maps we need to see a new map by you!
how u gonna give a literal skatepark F tier
Bro Boston from Matt Hoffman is def a B tier at least you was legit straight vibing for so long on that map.
1:12:00 Same :(
i love that you sniped that sound bite out of this whole video Gladge
W list
gm_bigcity is a port of a popular Garry's Mod map
Green screen should have been in SSS tier lol
Interesting tier list
Airfield is from aggressive inline
Much love Andy !❤
Nice stream.

Pretty cool. I'm from Lansdowne. Used to hook high school at the skate park back in the 90's.
