Suggestions & Requests / Screen vibration output event.
« on: May 20, 2012, 11:24:37 AM »
I am requesting a client output event that makes the player's screen vibrate. The same kind of screen vibration that happens when the player lands on the ground after jumping/falling.

There should also be a little slider that adjusts the level of vibration. The minimum being the screen shaking only very lightly, and the maximum being the screen shaking extremely violently.

Suggestions & Requests / Throwable 1x1 brick.
« on: May 12, 2012, 09:54:24 AM »
This is just an idea I recently had. It's a weapon that is just a 1x1 brick, but you can throw like the default spear. It wouldn't explode on impact or anything, it will just deal a fair amount of damage to any player it hits. The colour of the brick can be edited in RTB preferences via a colour hex code, RGB sliders or something.

Also, if possible, when the weapon is spawned on a brick, it could align to the grid, so it can be "disguised" as a regular un-interactible brick.

This is just an idea I had. Although I have no intentions for this, I'm sure I'll have some later on. But for now, it would just be funny if this was possible.

My parents recently had this idea that I can become a video game programmer when I finish school. (Not sure if it's because I'm autistic, or they always seem to see me play online brick-building games) I always thought I couldn't because, back when I used to play Roblox, there were times when I would try to understand the scripting wiki, but fail.

Luckily, my mum found this book that was actually written by a kid who is only 2 months younger than me on scripting on Roblox. Unfortunately, it was only sold in the United States, so we had to download it on my computer. So, that means that my mum has made me go back to Roblox, which I am feeling very concerned about.

So, after school, every day, I have to get on the computer and read an online book on Roblox Lua while building on the game until dinner, before I can catch back up with you guys. A few of you may know the name of my old Roblox account, but I decided to create a new account, because I thought it would be better if I had a fresh start back on the game. I probably won't reveal my account to anyone on this forum until I become experienced enough with it, so don't bother asking.

Just thought I'd share this with you.

Suggestions & Requests / In-game server advertising.
« on: April 23, 2012, 11:57:56 AM »
I've seen countless players in the IRC spamming to others to join their server, and it's not really a good way to advertise your server, is it? There needs to be some better form of server advertising in-game. There are players who don't use the forum, so they might get stuck.

This is an idea I had in mind; the host of the server would take a special screenshot of their server while it's running, and somewhere on the server list, there would be an additional section where the screenshot would go, with a random chance of appearing between screenshots taken by other hosts of other servers, and clicking on it would automatically highlight the server's name on the list. Maybe Badspot can create an update for it after v21?

Yes, I know there is an IRC channel used for looking for servers, but most players aren't even aware of its existence. And asking people to join your server on the general discussion channel is rarely ever effective.

Forum Games / The Thread of Blockhead Self Deletes
« on: April 19, 2012, 03:09:08 PM »
THE THREAD OF BLOCKHEAD Self DeleteS

This is the thread of Blockhead Self Deletes, inspired by the Book by Andy Riley, "The Book of Bunny Self Deletes", which, as the name suggests, is a book that holds various images of cartoon rabbits committing Self Delete in a unique way.

Looking at this book today, I wondered what this forum's imagination will do when it came down to this.

Your task is this: Simply take a screenshot of an in-game Blockhead with a desire to end it all. The screenshot can be of a Blockhead about to commit Self Delete via a special contraption they've built, or just by common everyday things. It can even be by some famous event that occurred in history and so on. It can be absolutely anything.

One rule: No death by love, etc.

Below is an image I posted to start off:

Off Topic / Birthday! Turned 16!
« on: April 13, 2012, 02:22:01 AM »
Yeah, it's my birthday. Certain users would refer to it as "leveling up", which I originally intended to use, but there are a few people who find it quite annoying.

So, I'm 16 today. Do you all wish me a happy birthday?

Help / God, this port-forward stuff is confusing the forget out of me.
« on: April 11, 2012, 02:25:54 PM »
I'm starting to get very annoyed with this port-forward thing. I used be able to host servers before v20, but since v20 arrived, nobody was joining my server. A while later, I looked in official help topics and they said ports 28000 - 28030 needed to be opened, so that's what I asked my dad to do. It STILL isn't working, and someone said it's just port 28000 that needs to be opened, but my dad told me that won't make a difference, because it's already open when he opened ports 28000 - 28030. I even tried it with the disable UPnP checkbox checked and unchecked.

My parents actually had faith in me developing great brick-building skills, but what's the point if there's no way to express them in the best possible way? I am getting so fed up with this port-forwarding stuff. If someone is willing to give me ONE honest answer, I would be exceedingly grateful. So, can someone please give me just one honest answer to what needs to be done?

Games / Which game has the best Game Over screen?
« on: March 19, 2012, 05:10:30 PM »
Simple question. Your last life got wasted, you took a sniper bullet to the head, you got attacked ringless, or maybe you were even made into a table leg, and you are met with the usual "GAME OVER".

But, out of all the video games you have ever played, which Game Over screen do you think beats them all? It can be the best in drama, or even humour.

Tell us the game, and maybe include an image if possible.

I might add a poll if this gets enough posts.

Help / I just port-forwarded, yet people STILL can't join my server?
« on: March 14, 2012, 11:45:08 AM »
I even tried the disable UpnP in-game. I tried it check and unchecked and people still can't join.

My dad did the whole port-forwarding. I told him that ports 28000 and 28030 were the ones that needed opening. After that, he told me if it's 28000 AND 28030, or if it's 28000 TO 28030. I guessed it was TO.

Did I guess wrong at that last part, or is there something else that needs to be done?

Gallery / Isaac Fox's City Rooftop Knife TDM

Isaac Fox's
CITY ROOFTOP KNIFE TDM
Up and down and all around!

This build is a small section of a city where 4 coloured teams of players settle it on the rooftops.

STATS
No. of bricks: 8401
Map: Slate
Dedicated: No
Password: None

Music has also been added to the build. The music is Sonic Generations: Speed Highway - Classic. If you don't want music, just disable it in your options.

SCREENSHOTS

A bird's-eye-view of the build.


A building topped with a billboard advertising RTB. The fan's blades are deadly. This is where the yellow team spawns.


A factory-like building where the green team spawns. You can climb the ropes by rapidly clicking on them.


The tallest building with the big neon sign. Manage to scale it, and you'll be rewarded with a stick grenade that lies behind the neon sign.


This building at the back is where the red team spawns. Complete with a small interior and a British flag I decided to build. The transparent windows can be smashed by knifing them.


The blue team spawns on the roofs of the highway tunnels. I wanted to make vehicles driven by bots drive out of them, but for some reason, vehicle damage doesn't affect the player if the vehicle is driven by a bot.


Crane dude comes to the rescue to aid your climb of the tall tower. The crane's rope can also be climbed by rapidly clicking on it.

UPDATES
  • Various windows on the buildings have been given a light effect to make the city look more alive.

Feel free to give feedback. Of course, suggestions and ideas to improve the build will be necessary.

Suggestions & Requests / Vehicle - Troll Magnet Car
« on: March 01, 2012, 01:42:45 PM »
I'm talking about the kind of thing you would find in a "Problem, science?" meme.



I actually have no intentions for this at the moment. I just think it would be absolutely hilarious to find this in-game.

It has now been roughly 1 year since I downloaded the demo for Blockland, bought the game and joined the forum's community. Also, this thread is my 1337th post. I think I'll celebrate by talking about a story of my time on Blockland and the forum.

I found Blockland while I was trying to evacuate from the monstrosity they call "Roblox". After giving the demo a try and buying the game, the first server I went to was a crouch race hosted by someone who's name I can't remember. Something related to ice. (It might have been Freeze, but I can't remember for certain) The host gave me a warm welcome into the Blockland community.

After that day, I was encouraged to play Blockland every free hour I had. I've been to Freebuilds, TDMs and my favourite at the time; deathruns. Of course, I was having the time of my life.

Still, something was missing. A forum account. After successfully creating an account, I was eager to get into it. However, it was nothing like the Roblox forum. In fact, looking back, I realized that the Roblox forum was absolutely screwing me up, because when I made my first posts on this forum, I was flamed. Looking back now, the Roblox forum just looked like stuffe, and the Blockland forum was full of more mature people. I didn't think about making a thread about being new to the forum, because people on the Roblox forum flame you for that, for some strange reason.

After leaving the forum for about a week, I decided to give it another go. I started giving serious thought over what to post, and some of the things I said at that time started getting more mature over time. Although I'm not the most popular guy on the forum today, I am respected by a few people.

So overall, I think this game and its community is great, full of people who have actually matured. And although I am going to miss the bedroom and terrain, I am looking forward to the future shadows/shaders update. I would just like to say thanks for this community for being a great bunch. (Although there are 1 or 2 asses)

tl;dr: This game and its community is the best I have ever joined.

Drama / Heedicalking - Has he ever unbanned anyone?
« on: February 03, 2012, 01:07:52 PM »
As some of you know, Heedicalking permanently banned me from his server for something that lead me into making this drama thread.

After reading your replies and other complaints from other threads and in-game, I'm guessing some of you have a bone to pick with Heedicalking for being a jerk and perma-banning people for ridiculous reasons. Sure, I do know that what I did was unacceptable, but I highly doubt it was severe enough to result in a PERMANENT ban.

Ever since then, I've been seeing some great server names with his name on them, yet he perma-banned me just because he's just a baby girl who can't handle a slight complaint from one of his visitors. A kick, or maybe even a week-long ban would've been the right punishment, but a permanent ban isn't.

tl;dr: Heedicalking is a big jerk who abuses the admin power to perma-ban.

As the title suggests, I am looking for a Blockland movie-making clan to do voice acting with. I just got my own headset for Christmas, so I thought now would be the perfect time.

I'm looking for one that's popular or just well-known. I am also looking for one that is frequently active, but I guess that won't matter much.

A few of my friends and other students at my school have been saying that I can do great impressions of multiple Simpsons and Family Guy characters, because I've been quoting them in my free time.

I also have just one request - please no strong language. Anything above moderate-level, and I won't do it.

If you require some details about me, I have 'em right here.

In-game name: Isaac Fox
BL_ID: 27967
Age: 15 (Soon to be 16 in about 2 and a half months)
Nationality: British/Canadian
Accent: Canadian (Currently practising my British)

Suggestions & Requests / 45 Degree Dice Corner Brick
« on: January 25, 2012, 10:17:23 AM »
You might know what I mean. You know the default 45 Degree corner bricks? Think of them and a corner of a dice. I am requesting a brick of that.

I'm doing the best I can explain through text.

Edit: I posted images later in the thread which should give better understanding.
