Suggestions & Requests / More Props/Bricks

« on: June 09, 2009, 06:12:11 PM »

I just got some of the Lego-style props yesterday, which inspired me to make this topic. They would be prop bricks to add to the Prop Mod.

Boulder- A lego-style boulder. About four studs wide.

Plant- A small plant, with three leaves.

Spiderweb- A medium-sized spiderweb, although the picture has hooks, it attaches the same way as a regular brick.

Suggestions & Requests / FFC- A Crap-On?

« on: June 07, 2009, 12:45:40 PM »

It's not working. I was trying to make a picture with a dog, and it didn't work. Neither did any of the other commands. So, I'm guessing Badspot made it a crap-on?

I only used it for Playdead, Dogme, Monkeyme, and Skeleme, mostly for pictures, but I did like those features.

Suggestions & Requests / Auto-Saver

« on: June 07, 2009, 09:57:09 AM »

A mod that saves your work every [set amount here]. I really, really need this. That's the third time that Blockland crashed, for whatever reason, and I didn't save.

Help / Eventing Help- Relays with Emitters

« on: June 06, 2009, 03:27:58 PM »

So if I wanted to make a volcano crater, which normally has a large cloud of smoke coming out of it, but every now and then, lava starts to come out of it, how would I do that? Relays, of course.

But I'm just not sure which events to toggle, and what I've tried doesn't work.
So, basically, I just want the crater to switch back and forth between the smoke emitter and the lava emitter, with a good amount of time in between.

Drama / No Response: The Issue About More Popular Members

« on: May 15, 2009, 01:13:37 PM »

I've noticed that, throughout my time here, if you send a personal message to a more popular member, such as Trader, Stratofortress, Truce... they just don't respond. Of course, if you know that person/are well known yourself, they will probably respond. I personally think it's simply easier to respond with a message like "No, I'm not releasing it" or "No, I can't help you" or "No, that won't work." then just ignoring the person who sent you the message. Many of these people are active every day, posting in other topics. Just because you aren't a very well-known member doesn't mean you have to be ignored.

That's my little rant. No, my "feelings were not hurt" or anything like that, I just felt like making a topic about it because it's so common (for me at least). However, some well-known members actually have taken the time to respond to me, like Space Guy, Darkstar, Packer and Burger.

So, do you have the same problem? Or not? Do you think this is a load of bullcrap? Just post your opinions here, as long as you have a good reason.

Modification Help / Shark Mod v2 Help

« on: May 14, 2009, 05:01:21 PM »

I need someone to help me make the shark at least appear in-game without crashing. Then we can work on how to get it to avoid land.

Pandan has made a link, just ask for it and I'll send it to you. It contains the shark dts and the three shark animations.

Off Topic / YouTube

« on: May 11, 2009, 04:00:50 PM »

It's getting worse (at least I think so). Removing audio for old, fun videos, stupid ads popping up and blocking the screen until you get rid of them, and thousands of people saying stuff like

1. Stick your hand down your thoat
2. Rape your sister
3. Jump off of a 10-story building
4. Eat a shark
5. Fly to China by flapping your arms
7. Copy and paste this to 3 more videos
6. Tomorrow will be the best day ever!!!11!

Seriously. Post your thoughts/opinions here.

Help / Port Forwarding

« on: May 11, 2009, 07:37:22 AM »

I tried to forward my ports, and I think it worked. Usually my game crashes when I attempt to host an internet game, but it didn't this time. I spawned, and then waited for about ten minutes, and no one came. Was it because there were more popular servers out, or that I didn't port forward right? I can't tell.

Modification Help / Making a Bot Avoid Land

« on: May 10, 2009, 06:10:12 PM »

Yes, this is for the Shark Mod v2. I figured, why not solve the problems all at once?
I sent Space Guy a message and he responded with this:

Try pre-calculating where the bot needs to go before you set its move path/destination

Now how would I/a scripter go about doing that?

Help / Forum Avatar Help

« on: May 10, 2009, 08:10:02 AM »

I know there's a way to get better quality screenshots, but I tried the command for it and it wasn't any different. Right now my avatar is supposed to be a headcrab from the Headcrab Zombies mod on a rock, but because of the quality, you couldn't tell it from a melon on a lump of crap. How can I make my avatar clearer and have better quality?

Modification Help / Sequence import failed: sequence node "main" not found in base shape.

« on: May 09, 2009, 07:34:48 AM »

This happens for every add-on playertype I try to make! The one I have trouble with right now is the shark for the shark mod. I have the working animations, but it still crashes the game. How do I fix this?

General Discussion / Strange Ban?

« on: May 08, 2009, 05:40:24 PM »

I joined Block Dude's Animal Wars Server (which I have never been to before) and it said:

The connection has dropped:
You are banned from this server.
Reason: Cursing/Swearing

And as I said, I had never been to this server before. What the heck? Is this a joke played by the host?

Modification Help / Unable to Find Parent Object?

« on: May 04, 2009, 07:49:47 AM »

An add-on playertype I made crashes the game. This is what the console log says:

Unable to find parent object[My Add-On]Dts for PlayerData.
I've tried everything, and nothing works. Any help here?
