Thermo and Backgrounds

Archive: 10 posts


While playing around with backgrounds I found that some use more thermo then others.

I have listed them from HIGHEST usage to LOWEST:

Avalonia- aprrox 2 and 1/2 bars
Da Vinci's Hideout- a hair under 2 bars
Victoria's Lab- almost 2 bars
Factory of a Better Tommorrow- 1 and 1/2 bars
Eve's Asylum-1/2 bulb
Metal Gear Solid- 1/2 bulb
Caribbean Island-slightly visible in bulb
The Temples-slightly visible in bulb
The Gardens-barely visible in bulb
The Canyons-barely visible in bulb
Basic (LBP1)- none
Basic (LBP2)- none
Monster kit- none
Marvel kit- none
Pantheon- none
The Islands- none
The Metropolis- none
The Savannah- none
The Wedding- none
The Wilderness- none
Edna Mode's House- none

I don't have the Cosmos yet but will enter it in the list when I do.

Every little bit of Thermo usage counts and I just wanted to let ya'll know if you didn't already.

Thank you for this info Lady, and for taking the time to share.

It's bad enough the thermo rises too quickly, and now Mm includes backgrounds in the calculations. My style demands more thermo...more thermo I say. I'm frustrated with it constantly max'ing out. sigh

Yeah, I found this out in the beta...Very upset about that, I was hoping that it wouldn't take up so much thermo in the full game. Guess not. :/2011-01-24 03:47:00

The MGS background, I found, actually causes a bit of lag in my level. 2011-01-24 03:52:00

Are you people really telling me that there are only 6 backgrounds?
Expect lots of DLCs down the way

i've actually tested this not only w/ a new level but in an existing level and i can say that EVERY background uses thermo.

FUN FACT (yet dumb): If your in a new level. change the background to something else and then change it back. the thermo would be more thermo than you would have started w/

odd huh!

Hum...does the water affect the thermo?
If backgrounds do, I wonder if water affects the thermo too, in the water beta something strange happened.

Thanks for the tip, though I usually don't use the pre-made backgrounds (:2011-01-24 09:46:00

YES, A LOT. Roughly 3 sections on the thermo. don't use the water initially, just use the G-water tool. It'll save you thermo for later.
