This is a REALLY ambitious project that i'm wanting to take- a Fallout-esque massive open-world exploration/RP map.
I am thinking of moving this to GD to gather more attention/people wanting to help/more appropriate so be on the lookout within the next month for this to be in GD.







the build is obviously in it's really early stages, and I'm due to get burnt out/frustraded with building, so we can see where it heads. the map is pretty big (768x768 i think) but it's actually proving to be a little small for what it is, given that it's supposed to be a post-apoc world with sparse amounts of survivors.

5/8- I've been working on something that will be landmark for the map: a large interstate highway overpass. the roads are done and the supports are mapped out and ready to be planted with roads. I'm thinking of adding an "arefu" style town, a major exit for access, stalled cars, and other ruined/decrepit aspects.

5/13- i've slowed down on infrastructure, which was surprisingly the easy part when it comes to buildings. i've finished the large part of the overpass, and a ruined home and church. i've also made progress on some houses that will be used for a kind of main city. but i've also run into a problem with more of a purpose standpoint than design- it feels too small. i've gotten really aquainted and comfortable with the terrain that i've built, but theres several issues with it- it's too small, and building on it is way too hard. so, I think that I'm going to swap out for the really terrained desert with more of a flatlands with really terrained landmarks (buttes, mountains, canyons, etc) to keep it intersting. i could make the generated terrain larger, but the brickcount gets so high that even my machine which is pretty beefy cant run it even without shaders. with that, i'm going to see where building on a larger-scale flatter and less detailed terrain will land us, and I think that will better help achieving the feel of wandering about for hours without a soul in sight. i want people to tell me their thoughts on this, so feel free to pm/post or even come on down to my server and tell me what you think the terrain should be.

Welcome to U.S. Outpost #31.

In U.S. Outpost #31, you and several other researchers are being hunted by a Thing from another world, one that can flawlessly imitate other humans, and stops at nothing to devour anything that stands in it's way. Stranded in Antarctica you find youself in the barracks, knowing one of you from 16 researchers is The Thing. You will have to use scarce arms and supplies to evade and destroy The Thing, or die trying. Using teamwork, wits, and exploring, you can easily oust The Thing. However, The Thing can use it's assimilation powers to evade suspicion, hiding spots to ambush prey, and use the own team against themselves.



The Thing was created to incorporate The Thing datablock into a gamemode that is loyal to the movie by John Carpenter, and is also a fun horror-style game in Blockland. The gamemode is focused on teamwork, exploration, strategy, and a slight amount of combat. The map is riddled with hidden items, slight story, utilities, and spots perfect for hiding, which I think is perfect for the minigame created.



The Thing is still relatively new, and there is still much to add, in terms of the map, minigame functionality, and mass player compatibility. THe minigame has many kinks, which have to be worked out often, so if you can help with slayer, that would be greatly appreciated. The map was created solely by me, with attempts to correspond accurately to the movie. If you have suggestions/ideas/comments, feel free to post in here, or message me directly.



Utilities found within the gamemode are: a door system that allows The Thing to open doors with only touch, a copper plate test to test for who the thing is (located in the rec room.), a not-so-intricate duct system, a key-based system to unlock and advance through the outpost and find new items, and switches for every light. THe doors can be unlocked with keys that can be found throughout the map, with changing locations every game. Weaponry can be found about anywhere- in drawers, shelves, hidden, or locked up behind doors.


Have fun, stay alive, and don't eat the yellow snow.

Help / Problems with Slayer: teams not shuffling and bots showing up.
« on: March 22, 2017, 11:08:53 PM »
Currently I'm testing my The Thing play, and i'm running into a lot of issues. There are two teams: The Thing only one person, and the humans are a team of multiple people. when the humans kill the thing, the round ends. However, when a new round begins, the thing stays the same as the last round, and it continuously remains them. am I doing something wrong with the settings or does the Slayer team shuffle not work?

When I bought the game back in 5th grade, it was quite hard for me to scrounge up 20 bucks for a game that i've been demo-ing for a couple months.
I think that if the game were to be made free-to-play it would receive a lot more attention, for:
           a) Showing up on Steam as a F2P game garners a bit more attention from gamers that aren't looking for a commitment
           b) Allows a bit more easy access to younger/perhaps target age people (Cause it's a lego game.)
Really, I don't know if Badspot is making a lot of revenue from the game. I mean, the last really major update, correct me if I'm wrong, was 4 years ago. Seeing that he isn't really doing a lot to add to the game makes me wonder if he's working on better, more profitable projects rather from BL. (If I'm incorrect and Badspot does do routine improvements on the game, then this is a moot point) Honestly, I have nothing wrong if he really is letting BL sit there and make money for him. However, I think that if the game were F2P it would vastly increase the playerbase.

Just something I was thinking about

Off Topic / Sony Vegas/ Blockland help
« on: March 22, 2015, 12:40:37 AM »
Sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong section, but it doesn't get much attention there.
I'm starting a pretty ambitious project in BL, and it involves filming. I'm using FRAPS as a recording software, and Sony Vegas as an editing software. My camera is stationary and I'm using playerCamera events to stay still to film. My current setup is moving my object, taking a picture, moving the object, and so on. Like stop motion. But I've put it into the editing software, and it looks awful. I'm looking to change something in Vegas or in Blockland, like a blur or something, to help it make it look better. Sorry again, but I'm looking for some help in Vegas, non necessarily Blockland. Thanks.

Help / Server Runtime Error
« on: March 21, 2015, 06:28:23 PM »
While loading, my blockland freezes up and displays the error message:
"Server Runtime error!
Program: C:\Users\(Me)\Documents\Blockland\Blockland.exe
This application has requested the runtime to terminate it in an unusual way."
I've already searched everywhere, and I've tried deleting my cache.db. It doesn't work.
It was working fine earlier today.
Heres my console log:

Help / Teleporting bots
« on: February 17, 2015, 01:12:48 AM »
I've been playing with some bots, and I'm wondering on how I would let a single bot/ multiple bots seem to disappear and reappear in a single room. How would I event that, using a OnPlayerTouch basis? Thanks!

General Discussion / What colorset do you use?
« on: February 15, 2015, 11:32:03 PM »
I've been using the default, and I've been wondering what everyone else uses. I'm looking for something with some pastel or soft tans, like for a house build.
What are the best colorsets in your opinion, blf?

Off Topic / Best filming program for BL?
« on: February 15, 2015, 06:29:01 PM »
I didn't know whether or not to put this in GD, but whatever.
I've been looking to come back to BL to film some gameplay, but I haven't really decided on which capture program I should use. It doesn't specifically have to be for BL, but as long as it's good quality and cheap/free, I'm down for anything. If you have one, please post a safe link to the site.
Thanks!

So within this week I've gotten two "females" adding me out of nowhere on Skype and Kik,(I know this isn't many, but its two more than usual.) and try to send me to a site (98% chance of being for phishing) that has their webcam up. The first one even tried to get my credit card to prove that I'm not a minor. The chat logs are as follows:

I'm visiting a friend on Sunday and I don't know what the hell to do.
I'm bringing my laptop because we play LoL all the time and it would be nice to play face to face, but that just seems weird.
Its a platonic relationship, but I'm expecting "stick it in her pooper" posts.
help blogland forums, I'm antisocial and don't know what to do
