tAPI [WIP][Released] Metroid Mod

[Scooterboot9697]

Do you plan on adding all the beam combos from the games and the beams from MP2? i would love to play with light beam, or use sonic boom. btw fantastic work on this. One of the best mods I've played

The beams from Prime 2, as well as all of the Beam Combos, are planned, yes.
I'm also glad you enjoy my mod, as I've put a lot of work into it.

And this time, the Annihilator Beam won't suck. ;p

Well, in my opinion it never sucked.
The only thing I disliked about Prime 2 was the ammo system, which I will use, but it'll be entirely different. Ammo will recharge over time, as well as being replenish-able using Concentration. The Light, Dark, and Annihilator Beam addons will also decrease overheat cost, rather than increase it like the other addons.

Yeah, but it's because of the ammo system that the Annihilator sucked; it took 2 ammo per shot yet was designed as a "spammy" weapon.
Which would have been just fine if the damage was high, but it wasn't. It takes upwards of 10 shots (20 ammo) to kill most enemies, uncharged.
Its charged shot was fairly strong, but still inferior to generic charged light or dark beams vs proper targets due to their special effects.

Supercharging crystals in Dark Aether though...that's where the Anni shines. 2 ammo to potentially clear entire rooms redeemed it as utility, but man was I disappointed when I first acquired it.

Don't forget the final boss phase 1 Anni was so good against it. As for phase 3 oh how I loved screw attack.

Screw attack was pretty damn sweet in MP2. I like how the forward burst of momentum is represented in this mod because it really pushes the notion of Samus' suit being a living weapon itself.

I tried to use the morph ball and my game crashed, and now my character is useless because it just crashes. Is there a fix for the morph ball?? i really want to try it

Strange, I've never had the Morph Ball crash my game when using it...
What version of tAPI are you using? Make sure you have the latest (r15). Also, what mods are you using? Could be a mod conflict that's causing the crash.

If you have nothing on topic to say that isn't a joke, don't say anything.

Saying "I can't do anything" is worse than saying nothing, and makes it obvious you are only posting that to make a joke. Stop it.

Download the latest version of tAPI on the front page of its forum thread.

I'm not entirely sure what the problem could be. Try uninstalling and reinstalling Terraria and start over. Then install tAPI. If that doesn't work, I can't really help you. But the people on the tAPI thread probably could. Ask further questions there; I didn't make tAPI.

It's no problem. Just try to be a little more self sufficient.
Occasionally there'll be times when hardly anyone can help you.

You know what would be really interesting to add in the future? A Space Pirate Invasion, could be a great way to add bosses like the Omega Pirate or Berserker Lord in to the game. Possibly have a pre-hardmode version containing Prime 1/2 and Super Metroid style pirates and a hardmode variant featuring the Prime 3 pirates that are all souped-up on Phazon.

A Space Pirate Invasion.

I see what you did there also the hardmode one could have a pirate commander as a boss like the pumpking and ice queen

Space Pirate invasions are on my list of things to add. However before now, I never considered what type of Space Pirates would spawn during the invasion.
Thanks for the suggestions.
