No recook?

It looks really interesting, but it doesn't work. It's a pity that it's hard to fix.
Abelix  [author] 21 Jul, 2020 @ 11:02pm 
I'm really sorry for those of you who wanted to play this, I really did want to recook it, but the original map files got lost, so there's nothing I can do.

I have improved my editor skills a bit since I made this, so I might try to just remake the whole map at some point (with some improvements added), but right now, I'm working on a different project that I'd like to finish first.

ronin_duck 14 Jul, 2020 @ 9:53am

Ph_Shadow 9 Jul, 2020 @ 7:36pm 
oh... I always wanted a good racing level ;-; but it crashes everytime. Put "(Broken)" on title to warn people the mod no longer work ;-;
talonflade 23 May, 2020 @ 8:27pm 
use playable sonic and use mustache girls hoodie it will make it much easier:steamhappy:
Spectr@L 16 Feb, 2020 @ 3:58pm 
I'm surprised there aren't any other race mods like this where you race npcs.
Blueey 6 Feb, 2020 @ 11:50pm 
vvvv No need to act so entitled, what's the point in commenting that the map is broken if 20 other people already have mentioned it.
Vengeance101 12 Jul, 2019 @ 12:30am 
Guys you need to calm down, Abelix clearly can't currently recook the level enabling the playability. Give her a break, she's trying her best.
Ivorytistic 7 Jul, 2019 @ 8:57pm

Hollow 25 Jun, 2019 @ 5:46pm

Abelix  [author] 20 Jun, 2019 @ 5:06am 
I'm really sorry, but as I wrote several times already I no longer have the original files, so I CANNOT recook the level. I tried everything I could think of to get them back, but nothing seemed to work.

I really am sorry. I've put a lot of effort into this map, and it makes me glad that people still want to try it out, but right now there's nothing I can do about it.
JOELwindows7 20 Jun, 2019 @ 12:57am 
Please recook
爱我你就屌屌我 14 Jun, 2019 @ 12:54pm 
it will crash:steammocking:
Hollow 6 Jun, 2019 @ 3:35pm 
hey you need to fix it it will crash my game instead if entering
Habanero 5 Jun, 2019 @ 1:15pm 
@Abelix Unfortunately you need the original files (the Maps folder). What is uploaded here is the CookedPC folder. The editor can upload the original map folder with your level uploads, but I don't know how to enable it. I would go into their Discord and explicitly ask the devs how to enable that feature so that levels don't die out whenever there's an update. Thanks for trying to fix it though.
Abelix  [author] 30 May, 2019 @ 11:58pm 
Well, I tried downloading my own mod and recooking it according to this guide here, but it just wouldn't work.
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1749636280

If anyone else would like to try, just go ahead. You have my permission.

In case someone succeeds, name the mod something like "Rift Race Recooked".
Keep the original mod description mostly intact (because it contains the story), but mention my name, if possible; and of course give yourself some credit for being able to recook it.

Even still, as long as I had the mod downloaded, I couldn't open any other maps in the editor, I wasn't able to successfully cook the mod, etc.
So maybe it is beyond saving at this point. :(
Abelix  [author] 28 May, 2019 @ 10:02am 
Hey, thanks. I'll try to think of something.

And in the meantime, I have another map/mod planned.
It will be quite unlike this one, but I hope I'll be able finish it one day.
Vengeance101 28 May, 2019 @ 8:40am 
Abelix, I've been waiting to try this mod for a long time and let me tell you........it's fine. Take your time, we can manage. We know you have a life. Sometimes things happen and that's completely understandable. Just remember that this is not your fault and everything is going to be ok. Good Luck and if/when you do make a breakthrough, I'll be happy to finally play this! :)
Abelix  [author] 27 May, 2019 @ 12:12am 
Well, maybe I could try opening the Cooked level in the editor, and just copy-paste everything into a new, blank map (Kismet sections included), and re-publish the whole thing as a version 2.0?

I'm not even sure if it's possible, or how much after-fixing I would have to do, but it would definietly need some extra work.
I didn't use any imported elements in the map, but there's a chance I would have to do all the conversation trees from scrap.

Well, I might try doing this if I'll have the time. If anyone else knows of a better method though, I'm all ears.

And I'm really sorry about all the trouble. -.-
Abelix  [author] 27 May, 2019 @ 12:06am 
I'm sorry to say this, but I lost the original .umap files. I had to re-install windows on my laptop at one point, and the pendrive I had the files on just stopped working all of a sudden.
Unless there is a way to somehow get them back through this already uploaded version, I'm not sure what I could do.

I tried to play this mod but it says 'the creator of this mod needs to recomply it' if you can do so may you recomply this a quick as you can?
Dimensio 23 May, 2019 @ 10:55am 
I even uninstalled and reinstalled it.
Dimensio 23 May, 2019 @ 10:55am 
It crashes for me. Does it still work for you ?
Abelix  [author] 17 May, 2019 @ 10:34pm 
Yeah, it occured to me, too.

I'm not sure if it would work online as it is right now, but feel free to give it a try.


Whenever something player related supposed to happen (like teleporting the player to the starting area of the race), I always used the "All Players" object in Kismet.

So how I imagine it should be working right now, is that when 1 person starts talking to Snatcher/starts the race, everyone should see that very same message/be teleported to the start at once. Well, someone getting a checkpoint might also set that same checkpoint for everyone, and I have no idea what one person dying would cause, but... oh well.

Maybe it won't work at all! This Mod was made before even Split-screen Co-op came out. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This for online.
TimTam 27 Apr, 2019 @ 10:15am 
This is awesome, but the map sometimes just randomly crashes. Sometimes it's during text, sometimes it's during the race. It's very random. Is there a fix?
JayTheTacoDev 27 Apr, 2019 @ 8:57am 
Very fun! but whenever i try to go back to the hub via the menu, the game crashes.
joes1 5 Feb, 2019 @ 4:59am 
This level is great. All other rift levels are usually challenges, battles, traversing, and such, but this one is a race, a concept that has been used only once in the game. Gotta admit, I had like almost 4 tries in the snatcher tree climbing but it was very fun. I don't know if I will ever do hard mode, but I guess I should give it a whirl someday!
DumbSow 25 Jan, 2019 @ 8:40am 
@Abelix
It keep doing that "A Hat in Time has stopped working" thing. Athough I think now it was just my HiT and not anything to do with the mod. Just reinstalling everything now.
Abelix  [author] 25 Jan, 2019 @ 8:17am 
Hey CowQueen, I don't really think I could change anything about the map at the moment, as I cannot use the modding tools properly (I get a pop-up error message every time I try to run it).

Nevertheless, could you try specifying a bit what causes the problem? Does the game crash or freeze on its own? Or is it something else?
DumbSow 23 Jan, 2019 @ 6:10pm 
It keeps running into a problem for me and I have to close the game after like 5 min every time. Any possible way to fix?
Yellow Dice (Old) 14 Dec, 2018 @ 12:39pm 
I like the idea that playable moustache girl is from a different timeline. I like that much more.
SpeedMarble 27 Nov, 2018 @ 8:14am 
i using cappy because cappy isn't cheating hat like kirby hat and its fair and fun xD also doing no double jump challenge with cappy and wearing badge that if you don't move you die
SpeedMarble 27 Nov, 2018 @ 7:04am 
i love dis map its fun xd
Abelix  [author] 30 Oct, 2018 @ 1:10am 
Sorry to hear about that. At what point did it crash? Maybe I could try finding the problem for you.
ZatchyLie 29 Oct, 2018 @ 7:13pm 
I couldn't finish the level. It kept crashing on me around the same point.
Gacelorra 5 Oct, 2018 @ 2:09am 
amazing
Abelix  [author] 3 Oct, 2018 @ 12:11am 
Hey everyone, I slightly updated the map, adding in the new DLC characters and a few extra lines of dialoge.

I think I was able to fix the problem of Hard Mode and the "Anti Time Stop Hat during the race" only activating specifically for Keyboard Shift presses, but I do not have a controller for playing on PC to test it out.

Could someone verify it for me that it's working as intended? Thanks in advance.
Brad Darkstorm 16 Sep, 2018 @ 4:05pm 
This is a fun map, I'd love a sequal, or whatnot, looking forward ot whatever you do next!
Abelix  [author] 2 Sep, 2018 @ 10:19am 
If you talk to the Badge Seller after the race (during the award ceremony) he tells you; but I guess it's been quite a while since this map came out, so I'll tell it.

All you have to do is stand in front of the Badge Seller BEFORE you start the race, and then activate your Time Stop hat.
Back then when I made the map I was still getting familiar with the editor, so it might only work if you use a Keyboard and activate the hat by pressing Shift.

Be prepared though, hard mode is... well... hard. :)
But here's hoping it will get you prepared for the upcoming Death Wish mode in the official DLC.
sonicsparks112 1 Sep, 2018 @ 9:18pm 
can any one tell me how to activate hard mode?
Creepyous 27 Jul, 2018 @ 9:55am 
Nice level... Wood play it again....
But now I have grey hair...
still, its a good level
D YellowMadness 19 Jul, 2018 @ 9:30am 
I have to stand in an extremely specific, increidbly illogical position to use the zipline at the twilight bell area. It's extremely hard to do. Seems to be a new problem.

Edit: I beat Hard Mode. It sure lived up to its name. If you're a little late, the mafia ball will wreck you in that tree.
D YellowMadness 19 Jul, 2018 @ 8:49am 
The shift key doesn't do anything when I push it.

Edit: Turns out I just had to push the arrow keys to activate keyboard controls & then push the left shift key specifically.
mai bunshine 3 Jul, 2018 @ 3:29am 
i might come back to this level later and play it through
