Will you ever release versions that work with other color sets?

Cash Register ROM would be cool.

I love how this computer shows the amazing things possible with VCE.

I'm confused wether the disc uses named bricks or all relays. If named bricks would I have to make a rom for every computer ID?
*I haven't had time to download yet if this is a stupid question

It uses named bricks, but the ROMs are activated by relay. I personally don't buy into the stigma of named bricks, using relays and projectiles limits what you can do and makes the device huge and impractical.

IDs allow for you to run more than one computer with named bricks. You can easily change IDs by editing the save manually-- I can do that for people who won't want to.

How about a usage video?

Ok, thank you very much.

Oh my bad. I was reading through the topic again and didn't find anyone mentioning there was a video ready.

So would I have to make the disc set events enabled for the key board. Otherwise they would affect other things right?

What? Why not just put a ROM runner into your keyboard. You know. ROM's for your keyboard.

I'm not sure I quite understand.

If you want to have the keyboard do actions for your ROM program, you need to read the developers guide in the OP and go to the part on how to use the CPU to detect what buttons are pressed.

My Projector is broke after re-naming the bricks based off yours.

Don't think you will always get something in your first try. There is a 99% chance you will not succeed in the first try. It requires practice and failing. Scripting requires practice and failing. Practice and failing is what has brought us to this Digital Natives age.
