Suggestions & Requests / Ambient Occlusion(s)

« on: November 30, 2011, 08:08:57 PM »

Ambient Occlusions are basically shadows that are placed around bricks, if you have played the new version of Roblox and you have a good graphics card then you should have seen these already. Ambient Occlusions would make the bricks look better, more detailed and its just something that feels good when enabled.

Idea 1

Once Badspot has enabled Ambient Occlusions for Blockland he can make a separate lucid program that displays your Graphics Card and RAM of your graphics card in the Options menu. For Example (Nvidia GeForce GTX 550 TI 256MB, 512MB or 1GB of Ram...I have 1GB)

There in the options where it would state your graphics card, you will have settings as to enable/disable Ambient Occlusion and how much you want.


Idea 2:

Badspot makes a program that detects how much ram your graphics card has, if it has lower or equal to 256MB of ram then Ambient Occlusions will be disabled or only show if there are only x number amount of bricks. If somebodies computer is not strong enough then the Ambient Occlusion option will be disabled. If you have more ram like 512MB then the Ambient occlusion setting would be enabled but would be set to low by default.

(This option should be disabled by default just for safety)

Help / Why won't Blockland install correctly?

« on: November 27, 2011, 08:31:53 PM »

I installed Blockland on my desktop on the root of my C: drive like so, C:\Blockland

I tried doing the samething on my laptop but instead only this program named "BlocklandLauncher" and I think some other notepad or dll file gets install in the C:\Blockland folder. Instead, all of the Add-Ons, saves, and screenshots folder goes into my "Documents". I try and put Add-Ons in through there but they won't work.

I have tried re-installing over 5 times and I get the same problem. I am running a legit version of Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

General Discussion / Does Blockland work for Mac os x 10.6

« on: June 18, 2011, 11:16:52 AM »

10.6 is Snow Leopard. I noticed that BL hasn't been updated since 2009 and I think that was when Mac os x 10.5 came out, so if I get BL on a new mac running 10.6 will it be able to work? I do not want to hear pathetic comments like "Macs sucks for gaming, windows is better" thats a silly rumor because I hear people saying that the exact same way everywhere. I just want my question resolved.

Help / How to add doors in a game

« on: May 22, 2011, 03:10:40 PM »

I recently downloaded some Doors off from RTB. I made sure they are enabled on both the RTB Mod manager and the add-ons manager when you click "Start a game". Although When I go to my bricks it is not there, I hit B to open up the brick manager and I dont see any doors either. On youtube the doors are in a category called JVS but that category isnt there. Any help?


If you help me solve this problem I will give you this cookie

Suggestions & Requests / Blockland Server Updates

« on: April 20, 2011, 08:43:27 AM »

It's starting to get pretty annoying when you need to scroll down that bar while looking for a certain server you or your friends made, or even just looking for a good game to play. Mr. Badspot should add two new features:

A. Search (He can make the title of the game count as the tags)

B. Favorites Tab (Add a check near server spots, when you click on the check it gets added to your favorites. Your favorites can be accessed in-game or when searching through the servers)

It isn't a HUGE idea which is what makes it simple and easy to do. (For Mr. Badspot that is)


P.S. Don't ask me why I call Badspot Mr. Badspot.

Modification Help / Mesh Making (Exorting to files Blockland can read)

« on: April 16, 2011, 05:33:11 PM »

I have purchased Maya 3D from Autodesk (along with an old version of Autocad) and I was wondering if you can use Maya to make meshes for Blockland. If you can could you tell me what type of file I need to save it as and if there are any other requirements as to when you are editing or making the mesh on Maya for blockland?

Also, when using Map2Dif, you just need to drag your correct file the program can read on top of the Map2Dif icon correct? Please correct me if im wrong. (Grammar mistakes as well lol)
