LEGO Racers Recreations
Brightfall and 2 others reacted to Jimbob for a topic
UPDATE: If you'd like to build these models yourself, check out the part lists and instructions I've made here. LEGO Racers Recreations The characters in Lego Racers are so great, that after seeing many pictures of people's recreations of them, I decided I had to have my own. Not just the bosses though, but all 24 racers in the game. Using jamesster's great LDD boss racer designs he uploaded, as well as my own LDD opponent car designs, I have collected the first 12 of the 24 racers in the game - all character's for circuits 1, 2, 4, and 5. I'm very proud of them, and in my excitement thought I'd share them with you First, here are pictures of them all together: More detail on the Circuit 1/4 cars: Captain Redbeard I think Captain Redbeard is pretty epic, although unfortunately due to his peg leg he doesn't sit down very well. Ann Droid This guy has the black car that several opponents share, but is still quite fun. Governor Broadside A bright character, at some point I'll replace the back flag with a 2x2 plate and a printed decal to be more like the game's one. Pharaoh Mummy I think this guy is pretty cool too, his car just seems to work nicely. Robin Hood Ah, Robin Hood, one of my favourites from the game. As his centre sloping section isn't available in green, I had to do some DIY. At first I tried dyeing it like Jamesster suggested, but unfortunately melted the bricks and the dye barely started to work - instead of trying again I figured I wouldn't waste money when the colour was darker than I wanted anyway. So I painted the parts, choosing to do all the green ones for consistency. The flash makes the brush strokes more obvious... And also the minifigure arrived with a split leg and scratches on its back, despite being described as 'good condition', but I guess that's to be expected from Bricklink every now and then. Johnny Thunder And finally, Johnny Thunder, another of my favourites. I think the game designers did well to make his car look so cool. More detail on the Circuit 2/5 cars: King Kahuka Ook-ah-ook-ook. Ook-ah-ah-ook-ah, ah-ook-ook-ah-ook. Ah-ook-ah-ook-ook-ah-ook. Achu Grrr, a chipped face (not visible here)! Well, his car is still cool. That green clip at the back, which King Kahuka also has, is only available in two sets so had to be shipped over from two different sellers in Canada and the USA, these racers are a mixture of USA, UK and Canadian blood Commander Cold Brrr, this guy's so cool. Islander Another of the black car owner's, but still epic. I kind of want to hug him. Wait, I'll be right back. Okay, next up... Royal Knight All hail the king! This guy defends royalty with a rather interesting blend of blue and red. Baron Von Baron He probably has one of the (if not the) biggest cars, suiting his villainous personality. I wonder what that replacement wheel at the back is for, it's a little too small I also have designed some dioramas to display them on, which fit nicely into my cabinets. Credit to jamesster again for the boss models: Circuit 1 Diorama The space at the back will have a tent in it, and the palm trees obviously leaves on top, I've just never owned one so don't know how they fit on Also the models won't be supported by those stands, it's just for LDD to hold them in place. I was looking for a way to have bricks floating, and this seemed the best to me, but if anyone has any suggestions involving transparent bricks I'd be happy to hear them! Additionally, the bricks will be from the original desert Johnny Thunder sets where possible (e.g. the printed tower things). Circuit 2 Diorama This one isn't as dynamic, but I wasn't sure how to make it so. The castle walls will have the brick textures. So, what do you think?3 points -

LEGO Racers Cheat Engine Hacks
Lair and one other reacted to lol username for a topic
For some reason, I thought the game already said that... Uh, it does... That's pretty irrelevant though since Cheat Engine is more for modifying and locking values than simply viewing them, for example, skipping instantly to lap 3 or being locked into lap 1 or something for an infinite race.2 points -
How To Install LEGOLAND on a 64-bit Computer
Firanda reacted to Mr. Eight-Three-One for a topic
As most of you may know, LEGOLAND is one of those annoying games that is perfectly 32-bit in every regard, except for its installer -- it's 16-bit, which basically means it's impossible to run on a 64-bit computer, regardless of what you try. For the longest time, most people believed the only way to solve this was by installing it from one computer and copying the files to another, but you lose the registry values in the process. I thought about writing an alternate installer, but I can't figure out how to extract any of the files manually. Thanks to the guys at ReactOS though, I found a simple way of doing it. First, you must copy all of the files from your disc to the hard drive. Now download this file. Extract and place it in the directory where you copied all the game files to, and launch via it. It's basically a 32-bit version of the InstallShield V3 setup program. Install as you typically would, and the game should be good to go! Word of advice though, this is also one of those that ignores the default installation directory and just puts it into C:Program Files instead of C:Program Files (x86), so you may want to fix that. I don't know if that's a quirk with you, but it is for me. Enjoy the game!1 point -
LEGO Racers Hi-Res Desktop Icon
Car CrazeXVI reacted to Olivus Prime for a topic
Hello all, I'm running very behind on my LEGO Racers Upgrade Pack, so I thought I would upload a few desktop icons I previously made. I've also made some for Rock Raiders, LEGOLAND, LOCO and Stunt Rally (though the latter three use general LEGO logos). Anyway, this is a high resolution version of the classic LEGO Racers icon that I made using an actual photo of a LEGO wheel. https://www.dropbox.com/s/tkmzy01ft6liqet/racers.ico At full resolution it isn't great, but it's a heck of a lot better than the old one! Enjoy!1 point -
LEGO Racers Cheat Engine Hacks
Car CrazeXVI reacted to Fluffy Cupcake for a topic
Yes, as some of you may know, I started doing Cheat Engine hacks for this game too. Main display of what I currently have here in this and/or this video. 1999 Version: https://www.box.com/s/avwoj24r1pacbz0rnvzz 2001 Version: https://www.box.com/s/x5a6brmg59pz67stn8wo Readme: As I no longer have the 1999 version on me, I will be discontinuing the 1999 version. Though when I do new releases to the 2001 version, someone can try and find what I did for the 1999 version if they like. And a credit for the idea for originally finding it would be nice if someone does.1 point -
ICU (LEGO Island Configuration Utility)
Mr. Eight-Three-One reacted to TheDoctor for a topic
No, you don't need an installer. This doesn't warrant an installer. It's more hassle to everyone. This is a very, very tiny program. Some people also don't have permissions to use installers. If you need to put the program in a certain spot, have the user do that. If they can't do that, then they shouldn't be messing with games.1 point -
Hello?
The Ace Railgun reacted to le717 for a topic
Welcome to RRU! I'm le717 (pronounced lee seven seventeen), a beginning Python 3 programmer and avid LEGO fan. I do not have Rock Raiders, but I have some of the other games, so you'll find me in those sections more than you will in the Rock Raiders scene. And yes, a few of us are crazy, and some just silly. Some things said here (the pants) are just fads, and will fade away soon. Don't worry, you'll find your place.1 point
