Off Topic / I finally crashed my car for the first time
« on: May 16, 2014, 06:29:30 PM »
I was approaching the entrance to my subdivision about 10 mph faster than I should, and upon turning the wheel, I heard the sound of screeching.
"those are my front wheels," I thought.
I pulled on my experience from video games. "The wheels have no traction, so I'm not actually turning. I need to--"*WHUMP*
The steering got messed up and it tried to turn right while moving forward. It's front wheel drive so, yay, more things to break when you hit a front wheel.
Fortunately, I got my confidence checked without hitting anything but a concrete barrier, but my upper back is steadily reminding me to respect real life vehicle physics.

Replacing my old email account's name with "Username"
Subject: Hello Username
To: Username@gmail.com
From: Username@centraldediscos.com (do not visit)
Championship on November 25, 1973. Menuk becomes increasingly depressed after Soleh tells her that he plans to divorce her, and they are driven apart. His team has reached the Grand Final of the Victorian Junior Basketball League 1.
Seriously, how do they expect me to respond?

Suggestions & Requests / [VIDEO] Cubes that act like the ground. (May float, support additional bricks)

Zone bricks are nasty, and placing supports is a nightmare.
Changing the names in the save file to cubes that can float is super easy and exactly what I need.
Please tell me this might be a thing.
if someone suggested it before, which I'll bet they have, I didn't check, because I forgot. oops.

Off Topic / 2.5 terabytes of Fraps files. Gonna be makin' videos.
« on: January 17, 2014, 11:53:08 PM »
When I try to import all the files at once, Vegas Movie Studio replaces almost all of the file path with a single Japanese character and claims nothing could be found.
Should I try to make a ton* of videos out of this and get it out of here?
*In the context of a Fraps Purge, "a ton" of material may end up only making a few videos anyone would want to watch.

edit:
It looks like the file browsing system within movie studio has stalled

edit 2:
I'm making an AC3 video. I'll group up all this stuff by game and see if anything is worth keeping. I will actually try to give it some editing, not just dump; this one I already edited a couple weeks back.

Poll option 12 continued (too long, pushed results): He's a Microsoft or Sony and Bayonetta fan who just learned that Bayonetta 2 is WiiU exclusive, and is now going to desperately try to formulate a mental situation in which Bayonetta 2 comes to some other system within the next decade

Suggestions & Requests / Machinima assistance (reset all players to specified positions, et cetera)
« on: January 03, 2014, 08:41:28 PM »Re: Muting all players: Voice mod
Huh, wonder why no one has ever made a mod for managing machinima making? Like seriously, it wouldn't be that hard to make an admin control panel for muting all players, freezing all players, server wide messages, setting takes (you set everyone's positions and when you do a take it teleports everyone to their position and gives them x amount of time to prepare). Is this something anyone would be interested in?
Re: Server wide messages: Voice mod + talking, lol
Re: Freezing all players: Not sure how useful that would be
But setting takes.
Commands for host or super admin:
1. Stand in a location and type a command including a player name. This creates a position. If the player listed already has a position, overwrite. Saving the direction faced could be helpful but not necessary.
2. Send all players to their designated positions. If a player does not have a position, perhaps remove them in some way. Add a name to send only that player to their position.
3. Clear all players' positions. Add a name to clear only one player's position. Not highly necessary but keeps things tidy.
Commands for all players:
1. Go to a player's own designated position, if they have one.
Combining the "send all players to positions" with controlling an event that manages the respawn of vehicles and other objects would make scenes like THIS a hundred times easier (with preparation).

Gallery / [Behind the scenes] Making of Blockland Trailer (3 parts)
« on: January 01, 2014, 09:14:10 AM »
Glimpse into the pain of directing.
Not as cleanly edited as the thumbnails might suggest.
FUN FACTS
286 recordings (possible scenes, failed takes, actual footage, screwing around without stopping Fraps)
432 GB in size
Length of 4 hours, 46 minutes (meaning 0.8% survived to the trailer)
Including final scene (50 minutes, 17 takes)
Assorted extras
A little help from my friends
Scene of my nightmares

Suggestions & Requests / Save brick pack information for missing brick data (Also, what is this brick?)
« on: December 15, 2013, 12:12:10 AM »
Where does brick this come from? Space? Why do what's whuh?
How much would it take to put a brick pack's name into what it provided in the save data, in order that the information for missing bricks could be more helpful?
Example:
WARNING: loadBricks() - DataBlock not found for brick named "<non-descriptive ui name>", from "brick_someGuysPackPart2"
