Hey there pplz, I just found this other game called "bricksmith" that I really think you guys should try. It's a lot like blockland, in that you start with a blank surface, and your only goal is to build things, but it's only for macs. One thing that differs from blockland, is that it has several more bricks. That's where my reasoning comes in.

A lot of you are probably wondering and getting ready to flame at some questions like "WHY is he putting this up in suggestions?" or "WHY is this guy still alive?", well, I have a reason. Although the second one is just because I'm not suicidal, I have a reason for putting this into suggestions & requests. It has more blocks. WHY does it have so many blocks that we don't have? I think we should change that. There are several bricks that are very basic, and some that are just cool looking, but we should have some of these blocks! If you have a mac, like building, are good at designing downloadable bricks for blockland, or any of the above, download the application, and consider my suggestion.

This is CAD you loving idiot, I'm fine with our current bricks.

Look, although you may just want to have huge DMs and shoot people up, I prefer building advanced sculptures and cities, and other people do to. I was suggesting this more for people who are on blockland for the building aspect of it, bacause several of these blocks could be very useful to cities.

Odd, because, everyone is fine in the brick department now, but I WOULD like a Blockland CAD thing, then you can load the creations in BL.

-_- ok, let me put this more straight foward, YES, we are okay with the current blocks, but a lot of these locks would make things look a lot BETTER. For example, sloped windows for space stations and advanced house. Propellers for houses and other things. Wing bricks for space crafts. People are constantly making weapons, which I agree, are cool, but I joined blockland to BUILD, and some bricks would even make DMs better!

If it makes you feel better, v9 supports joining servers with special bricks you don't have which is a step closer to having easily used community made bricks. We also might have a solution available to help create those bricks in the next year or so (like how long v9 is taking xD) since I'm sure we'll all eventually move towards wanting more bricks.

akldsjhf;klahlskfjasdlkhg WHAT?! YES! YES! YES! (And I'm happy because the builds for v9 thread is locked, maybe from spam, or because it's coming VERY soon.) Well, no I get to use the stud bricks with no errors from others.

Looks like a nice program. I myself would give it a go if I had a Mac.

Marcem · August 04, 2008, 12:27:53 AM

Then use LDraw.

General Nick · August 04, 2008, 02:36:34 AM

There's something called
LEGO
Digital
Designer

Marcem · August 04, 2008, 01:46:58 PM

LDraw has the exact same bricks as Bricksmith, it even says it uses the LDraw brick library.

luv4manga · August 04, 2008, 01:53:05 PM

-_- OKAY, whatever, just, after Version 9 comes out see what bricks it has, and make some good bricks for it!!! Cuz, just yesterday, I REALLY could have used a four way ramp for a house I was building!!! >:(

Radial543 · August 04, 2008, 01:57:52 PM

Ldraw is a collections of CAD parts. This is also a mac exclusive program.

V9 won't have new bricks, but downloaded bricks work on other machines.
