ATTENTION! Some arts below are the first ones produced by TNTPT therefore they are very old, they are also inspired on the game Mother 1 R-70 robots sprites, we have decided to add these Sprites instead because of historical reasons.



The Nano God

In the beginning, only one force existed, an entity that absolutely no being knows how it originated. This known as The Nano God the being who would be responsible for the creation of the most powerful entity in existence known as Angelius.



Angelius

Angelius is a robotic entity of 64 meters high, composed of celestial nano machines, without the 5 senses (cannot touch, cannot hear, cannot see, cannot smell, cannot taste) designed by The Nano God. This being is responsible for the creation of existence and for the destruction of the same, his power levels are way above omnipotence, omnipresence and omniscience. Angelius is also physically indestructible because he has the same mass and density as all of existence. However, the only reason for not turning into a Black Hole and destroying everything around it is because of its heavenly permissions that are above omnipotence that allows him to modify anything anywhere. However, if all this mass is released, the entire existence can be destroyed instantly. A small piece of Angelius's armor was placed on planets where there would be life, as it was inevitable that sin would be committed by beings from these planets and after billion of years The Nano Tower would rise.



The Nano Tower

The Nano Tower emerged from a small fragment of celestial nano machines, it used the materials found in the center of the planets to expand. After billions of years it begins its first stage of evolution by tearing those planets apart and with approximately 25 kilometers high it causes a earthquake that destroys 50% of all life on those planets. in the second stage of its evolution The Nano Tower begins to "breathe" expelling celestial nano machines throughout the atmosphere of the planets creating a great fog that blocks the stars that gave life to those planets making them extremely cold and hostile. in its third and final stage The Nano Tower activates all the particles of celestial nano machines on the atmosphere causing the beings from those planets to get contaminated by the fog transforming them into Fog Guardians.



The Fog Guardian

After a being is contaminated by the celestial nano machines it will use the soul energy of the contaminated being to reproduce and transform it in a brutal way into a Fog Guardian a robotic entity of 16 meters high, composed of celestial nano machines, without the 5 senses (in reference to Angelius) designed by The Nano Tower. These robots are responsible for the garrison of The Nano Tower and their power is far above omnipotence, omnipresence and omniscience due to the fact that they use the souls of the beings who have undergone the process of transformation as a source of energy and also placing them hostage against The Nano God since if a Fog Guardian is killed or wiped out of existence the soul of the being that has gone through the transformation process will be deleted not allowing a possible reincarnation of that soul. Fog Guardians are physically indestructible because they have the same mass and density as all of existence. However, the only reason for not becoming a black hole and destroying everything around them is because of their celestial permissions that allow them to modify anything anywhere, if all this mass is released, the whole existence can be destroyed instantly. The only way for the Fog Guardians to be destroyed and free the soul contained in it is with the deprogramming of the celestial nano machines which only the robotic entity Angelius can do.

Q: Who are the members of TNTPT?

(TNT/TNTPT) RMK 1 (Owner, programmer, mapper, spriter helper).
(Responsible for literally everything on the projects of TNTPT]
(TNT/TNTPT) Striker = (Master spriter).
(Master Spriter, responsible for the majority and most complex sprite works on
the project)
(TNT/TNTPT) Little-Fire (Master voxel maker).
(Master voxel maker, responsible for the majority and most complex voxel works
on the project)
(TNT/TNTPT) Chlomaki (Spriter helper).

creation of what is necessary to advance with the updates)
(TNTPT) Ze Robotico = Spriter helper, voxel helper.
(Responsible for simple sprite and voxel works on the project. Hugely important
for the creation of what is necessary to advance with the updates)
(TNTPT) MrJak532 = General helper, changelog writer.
(Helps with general annoying tasks such as writing the changelog. This is also
super important as it can delay the updates)

Q: What do we do in The Nano Tower? Is there any objectives?

TNTPT A: Like how we explained before, The Nano Tower is a free roam map. That means its made for exploration for you to have fun with your friends. Stay in mind that The Nano Tower is quite possibly the biggest and most detailed map on MM8BDM community. On future updates we are going to make it more and more detailed, making it more and more faithful to The Nano Tower's lore

Q: Why is The Nano Tower map so laggy?

TNTPT A: ZDoom based engines rendering capabilities is single core, that basically means that even if you have, for example, a 4 core CPU it will only utilize 1 for the entire game and maybe a second core for sounds, midis, etc. If you want to have a good performance in bigger and more detailed maps, it is necessary to get a processor that will have high amounts of clock (GHz). The Nano Tower requires around 3.6 to 4.5 clock (GHz) in order to be played without problems this is the equivalent of newer processors such as 10th to 14th Intel processors. A good graphics card is also recommended ranging from GTX 10 series and beyond. Stay advised that this is very common in bigger projects on the GZDoom community and many more, lots of high quality projects in there requires a really high demanding of your computer. However, we are thinking about doing the unthinkable... We have decided that for version V11A we are going to make every building on the map a 3D model instead of using geometry and it will solve the problems with Lag. For now, The Nano Tower will stay like this.

Q: Why it isn't possible to play as The Fog Guardian in maps that aren't The Nano Tower?

TNTPT A: We believe this is quite obvious, The Nano Tower is the unique map that is capable of handling it. However, don't take us wrong, it works perfectly fine in other maps as well, its just that he is way too big for those, this isn't the unique problem either. Considering how strong The Fog Guardian is, we prefer to keep him only on The Nano Tower as we believe other maps are going to be used for other Game modes.

Q: My game lags even if its not The Nano Tower map, what should i do?

TNTPT A: Disable dynamic lights and 3D models overall, those will cause performance issues inevitably if you have a weak graphics card. If disabling it doesn't solve your problem, the unique thing we can recommend is that you at least try to get a computer that is at least more competitive for today's standards. Other than that, if the FPS drawbacks are affecting your Gameplay experience it is recommended not to play it The Nano Tower at all.

The Nano Tower (TNT) project is the primary project of The Nano Tower Projects Team (TNTPT). Regarding the original content of TNT project, keep in mind that all content related to it created by TNTPT members has no direct relationship with Capcom, Konami, Ubisoft or with the Mega Man franchise universe, this only uses Mega Man 8-Bit Deathmatch (MM8BDM) as a base to tell a completely original story. That basically means that Sprites, sounds, graphics, lore, characters, codes, etc, that is created by TNTPT members aren't property of Capcom, Konami, Ubisoft the Mega Man franchise universe, any other project on the MM8BDM community or its team. Unless, of course, if said content was made towards them before making it into TNT project. TNTPT members also does not receive support from other parts of the community meaning that all the content created by TNTPT that is directed towards its respective owner RMK 1 to make the production of said projects possible, are now property of RMK 1. This is very well explained to TNTPT members before they start being part of it. More information can be found within the READ-ME file inside the project pk3. Please, do not attempt to steal any content created by TNTPT members as the major WAD hosting website where this project is uploaded to known as The Sentinel's Playground (TSPG) enforces some rules about stolen content, you may get in trouble if you attempt to do so.
