    LDD brick viewer (.g files)

    I've spent a couple of days to look at the format used by LDD to store its bricks. I had to debate a bit with myself if I wanted to release it, but I concluded that a viewer couldn't hurt. As of now, it only shows .g files that do not have .g1, .g2, etc files of the same name. You'll find that you can still view such parts, but they'll not show any geometry at all, or parts of it are missing. I'd recommend extracting the assets.lif, then the db.lif, then dump the .jar file in there, then run it. The file format itself is a custom format, as we found out, and clearly designed to be used with openGL, which is the renderer used by LDD. For most files, less than half of the .g file is used to describe the geometry. The rest of the file I have sortof mapped out, but haven't found out what it contains. I have considered posting the specification of the file format as far as I managed to map it out, but I'm a bit cautious to do so given that I can not oversee the implications of a brick geometry file converter with respect to lego's copyright enforcement. It's still reverse engineering either way. Controls: arrow keys: rotate X and Y axis Q/W: rotate Z axis A/Z: zoom in/out N/M: wireframe off/on Download Link

    What Makes Some Levels So Fun?

    Aye. I also believe that having the ability to build freely, while still having a solid and fun goal without pressure makes for good maps! And make them big, so that when you have some end-game stuff, you can still use them! And put in at least one of those crystal recharges. May sound like cheating, but it allows for using those lasers properly for once!

  3. I'm thinking between the docks, Geological center and the mining laser. The docks... Well, for not playing any big role. The geo center. Same as the above. The mining laser. It drains energy crystals, and I haven't found a map where it can defend AND you can recharge those (so you don't break your objective). So... Well... I go for the docks too, actually. ^^'

    Legos in Space: THE GAME

    I think you mean "Music by Cycerin originally uploaded to Newgrounds under a creative commons license, and was later featured in Castle Crashers, as one of many music tracks by various Newgrounds artists, which also use a creative commons license." Or you could have just read the video description. Fun fact, the music used in the Castle Crashers level "Forest Entrance" (Jumper by Waterflame) was originally composed in 2004 for an obscure Mexican educational game for kids. Expect to hear much, much more "nice castle crashers music" in this game, as well as music by other Newgrounds artists, especially DuttonsaysHi.
