Off Topic / [Twitch STREAM] Brick-making

« on: October 28, 2014, 11:01:38 AM »

I am streaming myself (+mic) making bricks in Blender, for now I am working on doors. I doubt it's anything particularly interesting since I am not doing this for entertainment and it's basically watching someone just work, without speed-up recording, but each to his own.

If you want to give me some company or watch me make my crap, here's the link:

I am currently working on door bricks.

Games / Age of Empires joins the mobile crapification

« on: August 30, 2014, 05:04:10 AM »

First we had Dungeon Keeper.
Then Rollercoaster Tycoon (But at least a PC version is coming as well!)

What could possibly go wrong next?

I'm done.
I'm so loving done.

I know it's meant for Windows 8, but it's built around the touchscreen controls Windows 8 tablets/PCs have.

Off Topic / Youtube now supports 60 FPS videos

« on: June 27, 2014, 05:31:49 AM »

The video in question is 59 but still.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3ny9zIckP0#
This is pretty neat, we will finally get to experience games and videos and absolutely anything really the way it's meant to be viewed. I really hope this becomes a standard for videos. I can imagine someone like Totalbiscuit going berzerk over this and stuff.

Youtube got 60 fps before consoles.

Off Topic / Playing 'Pool Nation' destroyed my PC

Happened when I was trying to do a 420 MLG Devil's Knife noscope.
Having drivers installed gives me the BSOD.
After running on Internal and uninstalling the drivers, I was at least able to get to the Log-in screen.
Windows boot however shows up fine for whatever reason.

10/10 best game.

Did Google just went berzerk full-handicap with everything we loved so far again or is this just me?
This happens on every search on Images.

Help / Resetting Blockland screenshot count?

« on: April 25, 2014, 03:35:53 AM »

How can one reset the Blockland screenshot count?
I purged my screenshot folder while being in-game, I didn't make anew, then I took a screenshot in-game at which point my game froze. I kinda figured the game did not find the screenshot folder (I thought it would create one) so I made one myself. The screenshot appeared in there under the absurd rank of numbers. I shut down the game, removed the screenshot folder and created it again (empty), then started the game again. The count is still stuck at e.

Gallery / Which one looks better? (Window ModTer Prints)

« on: April 21, 2014, 10:13:17 AM »

Yes I know there are 2 other window ModTer prints but shush, this one uses actual brick shots and fits more to the Blockland style in my opinion.




Debate which one is better. The difference is that the first one uses default Paint.NET Transparency, and since the bricks themselves were white, they turned out to be lighter. The second one uses Black & Alpha, which changed the range of the monochrome and awarded better transparency on the SIDE textures of the windows.

Please note this is not a topic in which you should debate laziness and about this being a game in which you build stuff. The point of those prints is solely for shortening down the brickcount for scenery or for the creation of TDM City arenas; or big cities. Or general use really, everyone uses it for whatever they want to.

Games / "Few could have predicted..." A new Duke Nukem on it's way?

Guess who's back, ready to kick ass and chew bubblegum?
This time it's by Interceptor, no more Gearbox or Piranha.

What could possibly go wrong?

Also what's your opinion on this? I am quite positive it's going to be a new Duke Nukem. Or a hoax. Either way could work.

Suggestions & Requests / "Marauder" army vehicle

I have just found out about this beautiful thing.



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDoRmT0iRic&feature=youtu.be


Would be nice if someone made it in-game. No need for the textures, but I guess there could be 2 versions.

It's old, but still.

Suggestions & Requests / Requesting Door Textures

« on: March 22, 2014, 06:22:59 AM »

I am making a new door set, completely disbanding my old one, and each door will support prints. Also they have actual side textures and all.

But I am pretty bad at making these prints, thus, I am requesting from you to make some prints.
The size of the print itself must be in a ratio of 6 by 11. But after the print is complete, must be resized to 512x512 out of the ratio.
Paint.NET:

Just post them in here directly, no need to PM me or anything.

Primarily I am looking for a Wood texture as the one I made is pretty bad, a plank texture, a battered/damaged texture and some "reinforced" texture. If you have any other ideas feel free to add them in. You will of course be credited for the prints on the release.

Suggestions & Requests / (Playertype) Timed sprint

« on: March 12, 2014, 01:20:47 PM »

In short, the player would have a normal speed afterwards and after walking for awhile he will begin sprinting.
The sprinting would stop if the player clicks or stops moving/begins moving backwards (also this should not happen while moving backwards or strafing).
For instance, the player would walk 2 seconds constantly then after that he begins walking faster, without any stamina usage or any other supposed penalties.

Why would anyone want this? There is a sprint playertype already.

Except that this is not the same thing.
The sprint playertype requires you to right click. That can be a bad thing in certain situations, also can be used indefinitely. Additionally you could sprint whenever, here the reason for sprint is solely so you can walk long distances faster, not for being able to dodge anything, though it could also be used per se.

I think this is a really good take on sprinting since could be used in per-general basis. Perhaps different playertype variations could also determine how long it would take to walk in order to reach the sprinting stage.


This is basically the way the sprinting works in War of The Roses by the way.

Off Topic / Looking to play JRPGs with someone

« on: March 09, 2014, 01:17:06 PM »

I realized I felt quite lonely lately and I kept wanting to get into a JRPG with someone (frankly for me MMOs are generally lousy when I play alone), and I would love to start from Level 1, basically getting a brand new game, and we would talk on mic and all (if you have/want to).

Mostly looking to (perhaps) start on Mabinogi, Dragon's Nest, Elsword, Ragnarok Online, Wakfu or such JRPGs with someone that's also intending to play them or anything.

I am in Europe, I would like you to be from EU as well because timezones and all.
Steam: http://www.steamcommunity.com/id/L-Z - we could talk more there if anything.

If you know any better MMOs as well that work nicely for groups I am also of course open to recommendations.
