People underestimate the time developers spent on designing and creating those countless rooms with so many little details that many of us don't even notice due to being in rush, we don't even have time to appreciate them. Yet Rain World is being so unpopular on the internet, people just throw it away as it's just a casual survival game.
Maybe rw isn't so popular on the Internet, but the playerbase certainly rocks. Steamdb statistics show that between 800 and 1300 people have been in game at any given time for the last week or so.
I can appreciate a pretty room but at the same time I am being attacked by 17 lizards, 12 vultures, a particularly lost scavenger and there’s a snail that appears to be calculating how to stand right where I’m about to walk to in the next 6 seconds and pop just in time to send me careening into a death pit literally all of the time I play this goddamn game. room pretty but also the stress is coming for me immediately so I won’t have very long to marvel at the art
@chrispy5249 It's kinda surprising to read that in 2023. Some pre-downpour players already consider it to have happened. The community getting too big and worsening as a result, I mean.
But while there's definitely more people, and it's not as good as it used to be, I do agree with you.
Rain World is definitely popular on the internet nowadays. Theres a massive amount of content being made for it daily now, both mods and videos. I remember when Rain World UA-cam was just turtle toad and like a few other people. I remember when there would be just a couple dozen people playing it online at any one time, and the discord had like 2,000 members (now closer to 46,000).
rain world, especially if you include downpour, is genuinely one of the greatest games i have ever played and none of my friends will get it because it's too difficult :(
For me the hardest thing is the fact that you can't immediately see what's going on. This is especially demotivating for the beginner, since they don't know how all the textures they are putting are gonna look like. Furthermore, when i tried using level editor, i found no guides what to actually do with the files, or how to make the connection.
Kaeporo made a guide with the basics a while ago, 1.9 unfortunely changed the file format but the easiest way to learn is to check what the DLC does for its regions since its the exact same method, then add custom regions support to make it work better
@@jevmenyt3422do you think you could make a short guide for this? :)
@@pleasestopdisassemblingmylimbs perhaps, idk if i would have the time to make such video tho
If your planning on using the editor, you should start with arena maps, they're MUCH easier to do
@@jevmenyt3422so is all the art basically "generated"? I thought James had made every room with pixel art tiles he made himself
Bio-Engineering = Vibe 😎4:09
I tried using the Level Editor without proper tutorial and I couldn't figure out how to do anything. This video made me realize just how much effort goes into designing these rooms (even more for an entire region), and how complex the Level Editor is. Maybe I'll try tempering with the Level Editor again.
i may make a guide in the future but idk if my pronunciation makes for the most understandable english
Thank you for understanding lol, took me 8 hours to make 7 rooms : D
6:34 awww the dance 🥰
Pretty interesting. Made me think about the RW rooms being created and the process they might've gone through. You also made it seems very easy! Are there any tips you could give us? Maybe controls and such?
all the controls are displayed in the corners, they are easy to miss but you shouldnt ignore then. G and F when tiling are mandatory keys to learn how to use
@@jevmenyt3422 Guess i should pay closer attention. Thanks
for example, an easy tip is to not switch too often from the tile editor to the geometry after any small geometry change.
By holding G you can create necessary geometry, this means you can create Air and Ground by using a random tile you have arround, pressing q copies a tile and puts it in your hand which lets you also travel faster between the libraries metal-grates-vents-misc-skyislands-machines-pipes are the tiles you will be using more often so knowing their order from left to right helps you find what you look for faster
I always like watching the construction of video game maps. This is incredibly interesting.
Peoples dont looks at the background
But background make room looks beautiful
This is a great room !
for some reason the scanning bits make so unsettled it's so cool tho
Now do it 1600 times again.
Already on it
The way this world was created has a perfect combination of cleverness and hardness , you learn where to go the moment you venture out the wild , very hard at first but once you finish it you'll get a hang of it
I imagined casually makeing some rooms every day and then some kind of super big region
yeah thats pretty much how it goes, 2 screens every day could give you a big region 110 screens in 4 months
@@jevmenyt3422 Cool
@@randigo9992 the speed is usually fluctuating but overall faster, james made Subterranean in a single month (which shows in a few messy spots)
@@jevmenyt3422 Subterranean also was laggy for me at places, especially at the rooms near the western fissure
@@randigo9992 i meant it more from the artistic side, some rooms are quite inconsistent and the shelter placement outside of filtration is less than ideal, but yeah large rooms take a while to go from abstract to realized and you can only render adjacent rooms so if you put a small room in between 2 big ones you will get frozen at the pipe since room didnt have time to load, tho i would say farm arrays has more issues with this
i am completely blown away. i can't even tell what you're doing or how but its insane, i wish i could do that
Thank you so much for this video Jev! For nearly 2 years now I’ve been trying to step into level editing and always end up falling flat in areas like tiling, props, and lighting. Good tutorials are few and far between, and have never shown the raw process of just making a great level. This is the kind of stuff I need to understand the creation process and fulfill my dream in the Rain World modding scene by making my first region! I appreciate you making this video ^_^
glad to hear!
Its absolutely mental how much detail and effort are cramed into all kinds of rooms, and how easy it is to just glance past it all because of the constant dangers and strict time limits in the cycle. Great stuff!
Ive been letting these play while I study for my other works and stuff
Youve got a really good taste in rainworld soundtracks and its really satisfying to look up at the video every now and then and see how its evolved
I would absolutely love to see more of this
i definetly wanna do more but i cant make a timelapse of every single room, i need to keep most of the rooms i make private until relase
i know its for region placement but the fact you rendered with such little geometry is really funny to me
Idk how some people manage to create games only by themselves
that is gorgeous
im gonna go play this b4 i find out too much abt it lol.
Yessss
We need more content like this, as this is actually amazing.
hype for that farlansa mod
thank you for reminding me. I forgot about that mod
This is wonderful and beautiful. Honestly I bet people would pay for a detailed quide. Tho I can't speak for everyone.
such an awesome room, I really like the way you use props for the background
Been wondering how they made all of those rooms.
There are so many details, big and small. ❤
How long did that small room take you to make?
this was 90 minutes, the other one (who also has a timelapse) took an hour
@jevmenyt3422 in hindsight that was a stupid question..
But thanks. Definitely gonna Check that one out
this was really cool! i found myself wondering what was going on so often, i'd definitely watch an in depth version if you ever wanted to go into detail about the process
This is really cool! I have tried and failed to do the same thing. massive props!
90 minutes for one room if you are quick and experienced.
So many rooms to be made for just one region.
Several mods have been cranked out in less than a year.
Are you guys on crack, because you are really cracked.
a region on average takes 4 months, just 1 if you fully dedicate to it
Woah so cool!!!
Lota of work for a silly room!
All I need is some funky geometry and [RANDOM MACHINES] as default materials to make rooms! (And maybe also black goo and slime)
That was great!
My brain
Ooooo, what is that region part?
It looks like with Hanging Gardens or Stormy Coast
this is RQ, it has no name yet
So ppl actually spend almost 2 hours to make a SINGLE room that you just passed by in 5 seconds? 💀
Nah man, my respect for mod makers is of the charts!
There NEEDS to be a new system to make rooms way faster and be able to play them in real time while working on them. That would make things SO much easier for everyone, especially to new moders.
that light editor makes me jealous haha, the official/community leditor doesnt load on my laptop for some reason so i use rwe+ and its not quite as robust sadly
What Leditor are you using?
community
Ou my gosh wow... i understand none of this bjt its so inspiring... i hope one day to learm how to mod rainworld
1k like!
how many rooms have you made for this region so far? also is this for the farlands
RQ is almost 70 right now. for refference
Drainage System, Outskirts and Industrial Complex are the smallest vanilla regions between 70 and 90 screens. The rest of the regions sum up to 340 total so far
@@jevmenyt3422that’s impressive!
2 words. *Teach me.*
i usually do modding for celeste, I've been glancing at the rainworld stuff. I'm not really knowledgeable on coding, how complicated is the level editor?
well, is easier than proffesional art i gess, the interface was never meant to be pretty or teach you how to use it
still something you dont lose anything to try yourself and it can be entertaining to see your first rooms take shape, you dont really get better, just get faster. My first room was very basic and took me 2 days to make and multiple renders to know what im doing
@@jevmenyt3422 ah, I'll probably give it a go at some point then. I'm currently doing gourmand's campaign and I think I want to finish the dlc before giving modding for the game a serious go.
Do you know how to make rooms that are multiple screens long? Looked everywhere couldnt figure out how to do that, i know how to edit the room soze just not how to move camera in geometry editor
How do you make new rooms? and mods is there like some very edvanced dev tools thingy or?
the leveleditor is an external tool, rooms are pre-rendered in this editor and exported as a .png which goes directly into the game
@@jevmenyt3422 oh thank you very much!
@@matyaskluka3765 for folder structure, copy what downpour does in the mods folder
@@jevmenyt3422 okay thanks!
heyo, this inspired me on trying to learn on how to make rooms like these, just wondering, do you have any tips on how to get started?
all the in game files are in the world folde in the leveleditor projectsr, if you have a doubt you can look yourself how exactly vanilla did it.
@@jevmenyt3422 thank, i crashed it 4 times and broke the entire UI 15s in so im sure it's going well lol, I'm tryin to figure out what tool does what atm so hopefully by tomorrow i can at least make a test room thing :)
@@DanteDMCry34 use the community editor, is the improved version of the official one in every way and has tiny descriptions of what most keys do
@@jevmenyt3422 thank you, where can i find it? and also, how do i actually get into the room in-game?
@@DanteDMCry34 getting the room in game is more complicated, for a quick test, drop it on the levels folder and will load inmediately as an arena, for a proper region you need to set up a modify for the regions, set the region folder and all that stuff. Literally just copy what moreslugcat does, however it does so much stuff you would be better downloading a single region mod from the workshop and checking that one instead, however finding the folder stea workshop mods are is quite more complicated. For download, and pretty much evertthing, again, ask somewhere else where you can have a more fluid conversation, you WILL need help for your first rooms so dont bother doing it alone, use discord
Me who spends 2 hours for a small filler room
i mean, this is a small filler room too
@@jevmenyt3422 this is a big open filler room
YO SINCE WHEN WAS THERE WAS A LVL MAKER ( looks good btw)
how do you think the game was created to begin with? lmao
Wait is that in the game or external
@@laurelneff7138 external but public (there are many improved versions which build up from the original)
@@jevmenyt3422 ok thx
Does anyone have a simple explanation of how to add rooms into rainworld? I’m very confused with how to implement my rooms into the actual game and modify them.
-rooms are contained in the XX_rooms folder
-rooms are managed in the world_XX text file to determine the room connections counting entrances from top left to right.
Roomname : Connects_here, here_too, and_here_last
To edit existing regions you create a whole branch folder called modify and only add the things you want to be added with [MERGE] and [ENDMERGE] at the start and end, you can do more specific stuff with "find" and "replace" but its often not needed
Check how other regions do it in their files, moreslugcats has almost an example of everything.
If you are adding a new region you need to add its acronym to the regions file or it will be skipped entierly
@@jevmenyt3422 alright thanks! This helped a lot mostly because no one told me the name of files and stuff.
@@jevmenyt3422 Thank you! I'm sorry I didn't see this sooner, I now know how to make custom regions. But thanks for not spreading misinformation!
Also, one more question, how do you create a room with multiple screens?
Hah this is also old don’t respond to the question : )
How do you get into modding? I have ZERO idea where to start or begin, I have 0 coding experience, but I don't even know where to go!
make a few rooms if you dont know coding
@@jevmenyt3422 and where do I go to make rooms?
Wait why doesn’t my prop editor have the prop snap feature? Is there a new version or?
dont use the official one, use the community one
how do you use level editor without having a black screen immediately?? im on windows 10 and level editor isn’t working for me (sadly)
uh idk about your situation, it never had issues for me
@@jevmenyt3422 wait i got it working it was just geometry
ive made tons of levels but the game seems to be rejecting them and they are not appearing in-game. what do i do?
well i have no idea what you tried so i cant help you. put them in the right folder/set of folders. Make geometry not have contradictions which make tje game crash, give the room a valid name. idk
How do you access this, and can you access on switch without mods
the leveleditor is not in game, is an external public tool you can use for free, however you need the game to know what you're doing
@@jevmenyt3422 oh :(
How do people even make Rainworld mods? Like what even is this software?
Level editor
cool :O
