Off Topic / Re: Which meme is the most annoying?

« on: September 24, 2008, 03:53:40 AM »

This poll suffers for the same reason all those "Which blocklander is the best/worst/most annoying" threads do. This doesn't even contain a fraction of all the notable internet fads, while also having the odd one which I've either never heard of before or thought was worth nomination.

Add-Ons / Re: Candle Emitter and Light

« on: September 18, 2008, 10:49:22 AM »

Sorry guys, but I'm going to have to call you all out and say that luigimaster is actually onto something on this one. I too have noticed that these don't appear in my add-ons list, and have found that they've been incorrectly packaged. As the essential files have been packaged behind a folder within the existing zip file, instead of being put directly into the original zip file.

You can fix this by repackaging the zip file and removing the folder. But I hope for Kaje to quickly remedy this and make an 'official' fix himself.

I cant beilive no one has said this by....

POST THE loving SAVE PLZ!!!!. ITS TOOO EPIC I GOTTA SEE IT IN PERSON!.

No, actually you're currently the fifth person to do it.

And read the thread...

Don't expect a save any time soon, if ever. As this is built on my own custom modified map, since I had yet to see a good island map or one with huge bodys of water made by anyone which I've felt suited my build's theme(The water in every one of them always seemed too opaque, also or I didn't like the map's skybox, or the island's layout itself.). Besides, I don't consider this anywhere near upload ready.

I don't really mind about the new players. I'm just saddened by how disdainful and full of itself I've realised this community has been to each other and everyone else, in both the older and more recent members(but especially the older members now).

General Discussion / Re: People who port other's works to v9

« on: August 24, 2008, 01:47:15 PM »

I don't see what the big deal about this is.

There is nothing wrong with porting someone elses add-on if:

• If the original author is active, ask if you can port it, and then credit the author.
• If the original author is inactive, credit the author.
• Make sure it works.
• Don't do an awful job.
• Don't port something that is downright horrible or overdone.

That is what for the most part I'm trying to say. But the impression I get from people who port other's works is that they don't follow what you've just listed, or didn't actually care to do so.

Dark star made a Decal that when around the entire body so i think it could be possible to make something like that

Who's Dark star?

And I'm almost certain that Decals like that are forced to only the one colour it was painted as which users can not change in the avatar menu, greatly limiting it's use more than a transparent decal with a yellow neck ever would.

Add-Ons / Re: Kaje's Weapons

I'm really curious to know now. Is Kaje ever going to come back and update his add-on threads with rest of his older weapons and vehicles?(Such as the Auto Rocket Launcher and Box Truck.)

Fantastic, but it looks almost exactly like GTA:VC.

That is true. The inspiration for me to build this almost exclusively came from Vice City actually, and this is pretty much my own built version of it. Even the layout and certain landmarks I had in mind. Although I'll try to make changes here and there.

I probably should've explained that in my original post.

I think people should stop posting ported stuff in the add-ons section, if they want something ported, they should do it themselfs,

I don't quite understand what you're trying to say here... Don't port other people's add-ons, but do port them?...

Or are you saying just keep your own ports of other people's addons for yourself, but don't publicise them?

I'm sure near everyone here won't remember or ever recall this build I used to make in RTB, as most people here today weren't around at the time, and it was only ever posted on the Return to Blockland forum's old and now removed gallery section with minimal publicity...





...Well since then, I've went and made a new version of it...




This lighthouse scene, along with the cliffs, took ten times longer than any other part of the build.






The whole thing currently clocks at 21115 bricks, every part of it was built by me alone. Three of the buildings seen here are not enterable, two of them have half interiors, and the lighthouse has a full staircase to the top. None of the new giant cubes or water block compatibility, as I began this long before v9 was even announced.

This is currently a work in progress, but don't expect an update any time soon, as I don't know when I'll get back to this. I've actually had it in this state at around the time I posted ACM City. Also I doubt I'll ever fully complete this the way I want to, whever through just getting tried of it, or reaching the hard brick limit.

General Discussion / People who port other's works to v9

Man. Why are people currently porting other people's add-ons and the like since v9 came out? Don't do it if there's even a remote chance that the original author will come back and do it himself, unless you have a sign of approval from that author.

My concern is that the person who repackages said add-on either breaks or does it incompetently, gives it an improper file name, or just plain does it differently from how the original author would've done it himself.

I said something similar to this when in your server. Although for the longest time I thought a jet or rocket plane would be nice in contrast to your more historic propeller ones, this wasn't exactly what I had in mind, and it gives me that feeling where I find it hard to take this seriously.

It's still a well made vehicle in it's own right though.

Am I the only one concerned about the garage door? To me it barely looks tall enough for any vehicle to fit under.
