Author Topic: MicroBlock Computers - Over 422 downloads, starting the trend of BLPC's  (Read 16930 times)

Thank you all. I decided to build this because I was tired of seeing 1 block glow up screens and text based computers. I made the insides change and work because that just makes it a little more real.

The events are just toggling, highlights, emitters and relays but it was very hard to make. For example I had to remap each of the 32 bricks without really seeing them. But after I did the first 3 programs it got easy. Each row of 4 color change events downwards = the color row sideways.

Example:




Also the on and off buttons basically change the color and FX of every screen brick. It total they contain around 74 events. So many that I had to make another toggle event enabled because the textbox wouldn't allow any more toggling.

So I feel its quite complex. I haven't seen anything like this yet.
what about hunterz Mac on Blockintosh server.

My saves folder is screwed to hell.

Sometimes save files work, other times they are gone. *POOF*

Lol "Shut Up and Let Me Go" by the Ting Tings, I've always liked that song :D

Heh, I saw it on a iPod ad. I was trying to mock Mac a bit, because there ads are so cooly. :P

New version ready for download, IcyDesktop 1001. See first post for more details.

Its fun to mess with, but its just basic events.  Its something almost anyone can do.

EDIT: I was thinking this would be better as a PDA type thing.

But they don't. 100+ downloads speaks for itself.

I am now working on the "IcyWind" (get it?) a very small but functional laptop!

MicroBlock Wind (MacBook air, get it? :P) commercial is here:

 I don't mean to be mean here, but...

 I though Blockintosh was supposed to do Apple-Like commercials and builds, and MicoBlock did microsoft like builds/commercials.

I make computers. I'm not a Microsoft wannabe. I use a Mac. And I like Mac ads.

Hey, I want to join Micro Block. Would that be cool?
