Give'r a go and let me know how it runs. On PC, IE 6 seems faster than Firefox. Can someone on a Mac tell me if it runs smoothly in Safari?

I'm hoping this works well on most people's computers so I can start adding more stuff in.

again... very sick update.... came across a problem though... when moving cliffs, i dragged one into another trying to postion and then my firefox said the plugin performed an illegal operation and it made me close the window... not sure if this is just me or if this is a problem with the game... (i only played for maybe 2 minutes, tried to move some cliffs around and then it happened... so im gonna play some more and see if it keeps happening..

I got that one too, and was hoping it was just me. I'm not sure why it does that.

Distance records anyone? I've got a way to get 190 on the unmoved cliff setup, would be more, but the I'm still in the air when I leave the bottom.

You just click Edit Level again.  I really like the new update, and when Firefox crashes, just reload the page and it won't do it again...or so it seems to me.  Biggest spin anyone?  I got sw 1440, can't get past that, but I haven't moved the cliffs around much yet.

I think the error has something to do with the long cliff about a third of the way down, because it always does the error when I bump that cliff into another one, but didn't mind at all if I moved all the other cliffs together.  The error happened with that long one 5 or 6 times in a row, but not with the others, but it may just be a coincidence.

just flew 290 feet, no cliffs moved! just hit a few pillows, and suddenly my speed was like doubled. Is it supposed to do that, or is that a little bug or something?

That speed thing is a bug, but I thought it was fun so I didn't plan on fixing it right away.

At the moment, I'm most interested in interested in fixing the level editing crash thing, and getting the game to feel more like sliding around in powder instead of carving.

I'm sure that's on purpose, so you can tell when you're going switch, and it looks sick when you do flips.

How about making it say for example 1080 even if you do a 1090?

if you're using a mac, command+shift+3 takes a screenshot and saves it on your desktop. Then you can crop it in preview to what you want.

Press the Print Screen button in the top right corner of the keyboard, then copy and paste to a paint document.

I'm thinking Octograbs might be hard to see with the skier sized the way it is. I'm thinking Japans or Safety because of parallel skis, and truck drivers because that is a really distinctive body position.

For spins, it will keep printing out exactly how far you spin. Eventually you will want to be landing your spins dead on.

EthanJPAskier, try using WASD to control the skier instead of arrow keys.

I have the old versions saved. Haven't put them anywhere accessible though. I will eventually.
