Gallery / African Housing

« on: September 22, 2007, 04:29:33 PM »

This all started in Sumohz house building server, I decided to make a ghetto house. This build went thorugh a lot of things actually, and remains unfinished since I cannot Make a second floor to it, I just can't for some reason, never turns out right. 
The whole "African Housing" title came from when we started messing with the build, fun times, Wedge loaded a whole load of macros onto it, Sumohz made the "African Housing" sign, and other labels were put throughout the build, sadly, I did not get to take pictures.
There are 2 version of this, one in Sumohz server, and the second one, with the orange truck, is in Trader's server, hence the doors.
Rating and comments are welcome.
Thank you,

First house, Sumohz house building server.









Second house, Trader's doors Server








I know they may be simple, but I liked the concept.
Here is a save so you can perhaps build a second floor onto it if you want.
Save names are pretty self explanatory, should be able to guess one using the other.
Again, ratings and comments are welcome.
Thank you.

Help / Router problems. [urgent]

« on: September 15, 2007, 11:09:31 PM »

Hello.
Today someone was messing with the router, and changed the connection type to PPPoE, so that I don't have to dial a connection every time and the router does it for me. [Figure 1]

Problem is, after this, when I tried to start up blockland, I noticed it wouldn't let me play online until I turned off some security options. [Figure 2]

Now, I can't host anymore, my ports are forwarded, and it's obviously that change that's causing the problem, anyway to fix it?
This is urgent since I need to be able to host to work on my kazl, and have people helping me along.
Thank you.

STAR ADVENTURES

[/b][/u]
This is quite a big project that I've been working on, a one man project.
It starts off with the tower, and the point of it is so you really only have one way to go, and you explore through the builds, one by one.
I'm building this by myself, and this has already been used as an application for two clans.
I work on this everyday, and it expands more and more, I'm more focused on the detail and style of the build itself rather than the challenge it gives.
I'm posting it here to see people's opinions as of now, so all comments and ratings are welcome.
Thank you.
 
Starts off with a castle theme.

Help / Default minigame player.

« on: August 19, 2007, 03:02:21 PM »

I know this has been asked before, but I couldn't find it by searching.
In the minigame options screen I have about 8 different default players, how do I remove them?
I checked Blockland/addons/ and it's not in there.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.

Help / Lights not showing on ground.

« on: August 08, 2007, 11:46:54 AM »

I get these odd patches where there is no light on ground textures only.
Every map does this for me.
Here are some pictures of it, any help is appreciated.

At certain angles the light works fine.


On other angles the light disappears


Odd thing is, this is only on certain areas, and does not always depend on the angle.

Mapping Help / Blockland closes.

« on: July 16, 2007, 05:15:05 PM »

My Blockland seems to just close whenever I try to load my up in the Mission editor, or even through the "Start Game" menu, Blockland just closes.
It closes as soon as I click on the map.
I don't know what's wrong, please help.

Mapping Help / One below the other.

« on: July 15, 2007, 07:57:54 PM »

Well, I'm making a map, but having a problem with the terrain.
I changed it all to sand, yet when I stand close to it, This happens.

A green grassy texture appears beneath it.


When I zoom out, it's fine.

Any idea how to stop the grass texture from appearing?
Thanks.

Oh and another quick question, is it possible to make it so that once I dive all the way under the water and touch the ground, I can walk on it as if the water is not there? Without this my map would be kind of boring.
Thanks.

Suggestions & Requests / Ski physics while jumping.

« on: July 14, 2007, 06:09:38 PM »

I was thinking if it's possible to have the ski movement while you are jumping with the space bar?
Or maybe make that a mini-game option.
For example, while in mid air with skis, you can do back flips and stuff, why not make that have more controllability, and make it so whenever your minifig is not touching the ground, you could have control over him, not necessarily having to be using the skis.
I don't think it would be very useful, but quite fun, we could do backflips and stuff.
Like Parkour/freerun stuff

General Discussion / More languages.

« on: July 11, 2007, 11:38:12 PM »

It looks like Badspot has been adding more and more languages into the Blockland website.
I demand Russian and Hebrew 
Seriously though, is this what you spend your time on instead of releasing a new update for us and making us all excited?

I will also take a request from the first 3 users who post here, just post the name of the song, and the part you would like looped, if any.

Forum Games / CB challenge changes

« on: May 14, 2007, 04:29:25 PM »

Title says it all.
CB challenge is a thread where people try to create a 3D model, using the program CB model pro, according to the subject chosen each week.
Since we are not getting a lot of entries, I thought it would be better if we could use any program we want, what are your thoughts on this? (vote)
