That gif is freaking amazing. Also, somebody needs to send this to all the sad LU fan game attempts.

Hey there! I haven't built anything with LEGO for ages (really!). But yesterday in the evening - when I brushed my teeth - I designed a concept for a Rock Raiders vehicle in my head (yes, yes... a weird place for inspiration). The name of the vehicle is Rock Raiders Tunnel Drilling Machine do you have a better name for it? It is my first LEGO creation in LDD (4.6). The concept is based on these mining vehicles which I know from the movie Ocean's 11 (12?, 13?) where Ocean and his fellows cause earthquakes to damage the statics of the casino. Parts: 810 Screenshots: All the screenshots are broken, better see the images in my gallery For more screenshots and changes go through the thread. I tried my best to keep the classic Rock Raiders style. I would like to hear read some feedback and I hope you like it. If you have any questions about the model (ect.) feel free to ask.

(Some posts removed) Ben24x7, Stop telling members to get back on topic, especially when the posts are on-topic. If you feel the topic is too far gone, report the off-topic posts (there is a button on the left side of each post to do this). Using this button alerts the moderators a lot faster than posting "get back on topic". It also avoids aggravating members. Creating a topic does not give you 'ownership' or the ability to decide what people can and cannot do in a topic. Proceed.

The GIFs are in my signature. The ones in my posts (alongside the videos) are used to represent my feelings on a subject, moreso than plain text can do. Instead doing what you're doing right now, which is typing out your feelings and throwing in bold and italics to stress your point, I simply post an image or video which is much more successful at communicating my ideas and thoughts because we are animals who thrive on visual communication. And once again, you have ignored instructions from myself, moderators and the admin.

In a world full of walking Info Centers, only one man is insane enough to carry a gas station on his head.

Vid on the cutscenes:

And this community's maturity shines through yet again. To be honest, I agree with Ben here. This is complete bulls***, and we all know it. Jobless, you're out of order yet again. I'm sorry, but if you have to INSIST on over-excessive use of gifs and images like that, then you're not helping. You're only fanning this into a flame war. Not exactly the first time, either. Yeah, because THAT helps a helluva lot. I understand doing that with the veterans and regulars of this site, but with newer members? That's just dirty pool. This whole damn thing. ALL of you. With Jobless as the ringleader. It's like The Brony Herd all over again. @ All of you: If you don't have anything useful to say to this thread, and if you're just going to push it into another damn flame war, then I must kindly ask you all to shut the actual f**** up. It doesn't help the community, and I shouldn't have to play Moderator for you all to see this. You're being childish, and it's getting WAY out of hand. Seriously. You should all think twice before you post stuff like that. Especially you, McJobless. I like and respect you as a member and a person, but it's crap like this that baffles me. I'll say it again: GO EASY ON THE NEWER MEMBERS. This goes for all of us here. I personally don't blame Ben this time. It's the community at large that's being the real idiot this time round. You're pushing him, and really, this kind of thing shouldn't happen. We're better than that. Or at least we SHOULD be. Go home, RRU. You're all drunk.

You just made the biggest mistake of your virtual life, pal, and I can't thank you enough.

O.T. Please, in future, if the train looks like it's coming off the rails, just jump out. Let the train crash without you. That way you won't end up smashing to bits with it.

You aren't, and therefore you have no discretion over who posts what, where and when. Do not tell us what we can and can't post. You are treating us like little children when we are older than you and we follow instructions and understand the implications of our actions, unlike you. Besides, this meme was terrible from the very start.

I'll pass You'll miss your $200.

... Sorry, but I honestly have no other reaction to this. I'll simply point out the most obvious thing I can here: If it's illegal, why would both the site administrator and a moderator provide help on doing it? Cyrem especially is very specific about not allowing illegal anything on this site. :|

If you think this site is a family, you're blind and deaf. okay fortunately my trolling from when I was feeling pissy did not work.

I've heard of mobile tool stores, but this is just ridiculous.

You can't use ISO with CUE. When you go to save the image, change the format to BIN. The CUE file will automatically be created. Then yes, you'll need to mount it with Daemon or any other mounting software. When you go to mount it, mount the CUE file, not the BIN.

You did have some points which, in my blind stubbornness, I didn't acknowledge. I too am sorry that this topic ended up where it is, although I personal still hold my ground on all the things I have said. Not a moderator am I, but I think everyone learned their lesson. Let's just forget this topic existed and move on with our lives.

Alright, fair enough. You've got some good points there. I just hate conflict. Something I've seen on this site far too many times to want to remember. Yeah, I have jumped into the vigilante role many times (Great analogy, btw). And really, what I've said there doesn't help. Which is one of the reasons I'm NOT a moderator. I skim the details, and I then jump in with guns blazing. So I apologize for my constant jumping the gun. Mods, have your way with this thread. I'm out for the night. I need to sleep on this before I say something I'll REALLY regret. I'm out.

Congratulations on not contolling that temper of yours!

The problem with this thread is that there was no purpose to it in the first place. Now it can remain as an empty, pointless meme thread FOREVER.

First off, I wanted to post here yesterday, but AT&T's broadband stability is comparable to Windows ME. Second, thanks, RRU, for not liking this! (Topic) Third, you still don't know what a joke (or sarcasm) is. And now, for what I wanted to post here when I saw this topic on the homepage;

But for good reason. Some are good but most aren't.

Yeah, I've never found these 'keep calm' things funny...

I think this version is popular.

How bout, "Keep calm and ignore posters?" I do like that one.

... I don't even.... *facepalm*

Hey there people, it's me again. 3 years ago in summer holiday (almost 4 years ago) i started working on a game. A mod to be exact. It was a Rockraiders FPS game on the WOLF3D engine. after a while the engine got changed to the Doom engine. It took a lot of work, especially since i was just a 12 year old kiddo that had no expierence with game development exept for gamemaker. When all the maps were finished i needed to start working on sprites. at that point i realized that i am a terrible graphic designer and the game itself was terrible too, so i just left it and never looked back. 3 years have passed after that and i gained a lot of expierence with game developing. released 5 games under the name 'PascalGamesStudios' wich contained 2 LRR related projects. One of that was called LRR-Arcade. A game that i am not happy with, it doesn't run smooth, has no real story and just is plain boring. With a lot of hard work i managed to fix alot of problems with the framework i've been using and learned some stuff about quality. I tried to make a SP game out of it but failed becouse of the lack of inspiration for maps. That project got cancelled (like most of my projects ) 3 months had passed after that and a lot of terrible and great things have happend. After some time i got super bored and decided to look trough my old dropbox account. There i found the old .WAD file (Doom mod package) was the mod that never got released. it contained all the maps to the boss battle and then i realized that i still had that project from 3 months ago. so now LRR-FPS is getting one last engine switch. TL;DR I am working on LRR-FPS again after 3 long years, only this time on an new engine. The project page can be found at IndieDB. I am really looking forward to finishing it since i can finally add the stuff i wanted in it back in 2010 (cutscenes, voiceacting etc. ) Images: Link to old topic I hope that this will turn out great. Thanks for listening! -Pascal

LEGO Racers Tiny Turbos #8658 Big Bling Wheelie Review by RobExplorien I started my reviews with Racers sets from the Tiny Turbos theme, and now they're back. This time, the #8658 Big Bling Wheelie is up for review, sold in the iconic plastic garage boxes for these type of sets. The set was released back in 2005 (the garage box itself dates back to 2004), and the retail price for my local store was either €3,99 or €4,99, I'm not sure about that anymore, $3,99 in the US and £2,99 in the UK (according to Brickipedia). Taking a look at the boxart, the name of the vehicle fits with the design of it. The advised ages are 6 and up, The LEGO Group scores points for having that correct. The boxart depicts the Big Bling Wheelie in action; racing with high speed and smoke coming off the back wheels. Then we have the back of the box. Nothing special here, other than the bar code, warnings in a ton of languages, copyrights and a link to the LEGO website. I do have to point out something on the side of this box, which we will get to at the image after this one. To already point out an error in the brick scale. The wheel included in this set is a Big Wheel(ie), and I don't think they took this into account while working on the box art. The scale is more like 1:2, than 1:1. The garage function of the box this set is sold in is shown as well. I did have some trouble fitting the Big Bling Wheelie in there though, but I’ll get back on that later. The other side of the box shows you all four racers from this Tiny Turbos series. I will also review the #8655 RX-Sprinter one day. At the same side, it shows how you can combine the sets from this series and make a bigger vehicle (instructions for these vehicles are included). Now that we had a detailed look at the box, it’s time for the contents: 32 pieces instructions sticker sheet with four stickers (not pictured) I bet that you’re probably not surprised that this set makes use of a sticker sheet. The Tiny Turbos sets are notorious for the use of stickers. But I’m not here to rant about this once again. I’m surprised that I sticked them correctly back then, and not crooked, but I guess I had asked my dad to stick them onto the bricks. And then there is this red plate. I don’t know why they picked this one piece with this colour for this set. It mind as well had been a purple or yellow coloured plate, because this piece is not visible when the Big Bling Wheelie is completely constructed. Single sheet instructions, like always with these sets, and it is carefully folded (definitely noticeable when compared to folded instructions in LEGO-copied sets). The front page shows you how to build the Big Bling Wheelie in 9 steps, with the stickers added in the final step. The other side shows you how to build a model with this set and set #8655 combined. It is a large off-road vehicle, being a mixture of the black and red elements. The instructions show the last part of the 11-step build. Also, lego.com offers a service too. Is it for when you encounter an error in the set, like missing bricks? This set does not require pictures of the build, I guess, so we’ll skip right to the finished model. Personally, this is one of my favorite Tiny Turbos sets. I like the compact and sturdy design and the chrome rims, which contrasts the overall black colour of the vehicle along with the large air-scoop engines on the rear of the vehicle. The stickers add the cool details to this vehicle, but I’m not quite sure what the ‘S’ is meant to mean. It reminds me of the cash symbol (‘$’), the vehicle really looks like it is not affordable for the middle class minifigures. I added a few baseplates and some trees to have the Big Bling Wheelie feel at home, on the asphalt. Ofcourse these parts are not included in the original set. The rear gives us a better look at the engines. Does it look good? I’m not too sure about that. And after a long day of racing, the Big Bling Wheelie has to rest its engines and tires. It is a bit of a trouble to get it in the garage, due to the air-scoop engines sticking out on the rear. When it's parked, close the ‘garage door’ and you can take it with you anywhere you want, without disassembling the set. So the back of the instruction sheet shows a how-to-build for the ‘combined-set’ model. In order to make this model, you need (bricks from) the #8655 RX-Sprinter set as well. Below is an image of what you end up with after the first six steps. The chassis is generally finished (consisting of lots of stacked up plates) and both type of wheels are to be used for this model. What you end up with, is this large (for its kind) off-road vehicle, measuring at about 11cm/4.5inch. A mixture of red and black elements and more chrome rims. The air-scoop engines are still in the rear, and we now have a spoiler advertising for LEGO Racers, so there you have one of the sources of my income, advertising. Four spare parts left, a fair amount, taking that the designers hadn't had an easy task to make a good looking vehicle with just the bricks of these two sets and using as much bricks as possible for this model. Now to take a look at its buttocks, eh, I mean rear. It becomes clear that the RX-Sprinter parts are dominant on this side. Mount the spoiler on the Big Bling Wheelie side, and you could consider the rear as the new front of the vehicle. Thus we get to the end of this review, and to summarize this set review: The box/garage is common for these Tiny Turbos sets, providing easy storage for the Big Bling Wheelie (without the necessity of disassembling the vehicle) and providing easy storage due to the relatively small box size as well. I don’t have much to say about the instructions. Well explained and nicely folded. When you buy a Tiny Turbos set, expect decals to be included. Though printings might as well had been an option for The LEGO Group, the stickers are fine for me and add the necessary details to give the Big Bling Wheelie that snazzy look. The vehicle itself really appeals to me, as I said earlier in this review. The extra-large rims do justice to the Bling in the name, and the overall black colour sort off intimidates the other racers. Combine this set with the #8655 RX-Sprinter to make a large off-road vehicle, or add roadplates and perhaps some scenery to make a racetrack for the Big Bling Wheelie to compete on with other Tiny Turbos sets.

The next exclusive Star Wars set has been unveiled, and... It's big. As in, it contains just under 2,000 pieces, has 17 minifigures (16 if you don't count R2-D2),and is $250. It's set for release in September. Here's the press release: Brickset has uploaded high-res photos to its Flickr stream, you can see them here. Sources: Brickset

I was thinking about making a documentation on LEGO1.DLL sometime after I finish moving.

You should write a documentation on LEGO1.DLL sometime.

"My brain power can power your cars!"

Flip it. I am getting this DAMN TOPIC LOCKED UP BECAUSE ALL YOU PEOPLE ALWAYS HAVE TO F*** THE TOPIC UP OVER AND OVER AGAIN. YOU CAN JUST ASWELL SHUT THE F*** UP!!

Hmm, kind of sounds like something a Moderator would say...

And another thread has been completely derailed. Good work, everyone. We're getting close to our quota.

Once more, the RRU community shoots down something. Man, we are so prejudice with memes sometimes.

Copy-cats...are just lazy idiots who have no imagination...Like the people who made millions of ipad clones and temple run clones...

Wait, so the PC version has a reduced difficulty? I AM VERY DISPLEASED BY THIS!

I haven't had the opportunity to play the Nintendo 64 version, but I can say that on the Playstation version some of Veronica Voltage's paths are modified in places, and I wouldn't be surprised if this was the case in circuit mode. After growing up playing the Playstation version of the game, the PC version was, by comparison, incredibly easy for me. For me, this lends credence to the possibility that High Voltage Software may have increased the difficultly for the Playstation port by giving the AI characters more efficient... well, AI. To be fair, though, I think another significant factor in the difficulty level was the different controls.

I didn't join RRU for this nor its equivalent.

I'd laugh at these if they were actually funny.

...wow. I have never seen someone so oblivious to sarcasm.

The following takes place between 19:37 and 21:08. Events occur in real time. JimbobJeffers: Ugh, it's creepy when you see Yourself online.

I've never seen a Storm quite like this one. Fushigisaur: If only I had a Medic, this could all have been avoided.

WHAT?! That font is NOTHING Similiar to the subtitles in LEGO Island 2. Even, the subtitles for LEGO Island 2 is a font called "Balloon" or something, it is also used on LEGO Stunt Rally and even the old Nickelodeon logo. How would you compare such things?

It took some work but I eventually perfected my signature. I haven't changed it in years.

True, but this is a backup CD, which may be used in the event the original disc is lost or destroyed. Yes, digital copies are indeed illegal. (Please see the Software License Agreement) Although, he legally bought the game(Possibly)and therefore he did indeed pay the company.(Unless he got it from Amazon or eBay, or, worst of all, a garage sale, but he still owns it legally.) He never said he was going to send it to a friend, he said he needed to know how to make a backup disc, which, is perfectly legal so long as it is used for personal use only. (Again, see the Software License Agreement) Software License Agreement (I-II) ^Even a 12 year old could understand that.

You meant Hello without the bold? Of course you did. You really need to check your spelling.

Believe me, sir, I have modeled and re-modeled many LEGO minifigures with precision down to a hundredth of a millimeter. I'm not just sure how they look, but the shape of every piece has become lodged inside my mind. (from here: http://jaysbrickblog.wordpress.com/2012/05/15/lego-minifigures-series-7-review-part-1/) Way off. ... was I seriously just compared to Gordon Ramsey? Edit: Just to show you what horrors might be created simply due to a lack of proper reference material... My first ever minifigure model, from 2009. Don't let this happen to you. D8

lolwut? I said that specifically because I knew Lair already had a PS2, and even then, you can get a used PS2 for $30 on eBay, and probably cheaper on craigslist.

stop making me angry that other people can run this when I can't
