"The original v9 eventers." Icecube A2 Rev 1.4 Computer
3D screen - ROM reader - Beautiful all-in-one design - 2 default programs
InformationDesigned and built by IcyGamma, this computer (using event systems and concepts developed at the MicroBlock Headquarters workshop in The Centipede Building) combines years of event knowledge, a pro-RP attitude, and lateral thinking to deliver a simplistic yet highly refined build.
This build is like no other computer. It supports custom programs fully, something
no other Blockland computer ever could do without great modification to the actual device. It uses a 3D screen never seen before in Blockland, giving opportunity to 3D games using projectiles, and allowing for depth with windows. It is based off the iMac G3, with a case that can be personalized to any color you wish.
This build is perfect for office role play as it features interactive office software (write documents, and make graphs that can be saved for later). It is perfect to increase your eventing skill by building apps for it. It is a great addition to any build that requires a computer. It is also fun to learn from.
If you wish to make ROMs, there is a full PDF guide below on how to do so. Check the "more content" section under guides.
This computer can also provide good practical use. With custom ROMs you can make it execute actions for your builds using custom events. Even the default programs can be useful;
