jamesster: I view LEGO MMOs as a dysfunctional group of siblings jamesster: LEGO Universe was the older brother who wanted to change the world but got drunk and fell into a muddy ditch jamesster: LEGO Minifigures Online is the middle aged brother who's even more drunk, but saw what happened to his older brother, and thus tries to stay away from muddy ditches jamesster: And finally, Chima Online is the baby at the dinner table who throws his food everywhere

This is very similar to the run DR and LR2 with extracted archives tutorial created by JJMB, so I will be borrowing the first half of the steps: (I hope you don't mind JMMB!) Step 6: Use a Go To Offset [relative to beginning of file] feature and go to 141409 OR In the search box, enter the following string: 47 61 6D 65 20 44 61 74 61 5C 46 72 6F 6E 74 65 6E 64 5C 42 61 63 6B 67 72 6F 75 6E 64 5C 25 73 5C 42 61 63 6B 25 73 31 2E 74 67 61 Once you get there, replace the last 3, 74 67 61 (also known as tga, you may see it say this in your editor) to 69 66 6C, which is ifl. Step 7: Go to GAME DATAFRONTENDBACKGROUNDPC and create an .ifl file (a txt file pretty much) for each existing .MIP material file there and refer in it what textures will be used (go ahead and make new textures if you like!), else you will get a plain white background in game because it is now refering to the ifls for its data instead of the .tgas. O.T. To get an example and understand how .ifls work, see GAME DATASANDY ISLANDTEXTURESWATER ANIMWATER ANIM.IFL

The finalized version of the next LEGO Cuusoo set, the NASA Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity Rover, has been revealed over at the official LEGO Cuusoo blog. There's multiple pictures of the model, box art, and creator of the LEGO Cuusoo project (Stephen Pakbaz, a mechanical engineer who worked on the real rover) building the set. Check it out!

An new machine from RZT Automotive (complete with a really crappy vector badge). Note to self: Make concept art (not even complete) and badge before making the model. Quadador is a concept Motorcycle similar to the Dodge Tomahawk. Like the hawk, it has four wheels, uses chains for the final drive, has a three arm linkage on the front, is moved by a big engine and both are about the same size. But that is where the two stop comparing and start contrasting. For starters, it is made not just to be ridden but to be done so on public roads and if can not be done so legally as is, it should not take much to make it legal. This means it has a lot more lights than the Tomahawk and a windscreen to comply with regs. There is a harness to hold the rider on just in case the screen is not enough. There is no instrument panel. Rather a HUD on the windscreen is used because I found from experience that standard panels are just too far away from the "driving area" to be useful. The engine is in essence, two Wankel Rotatory engines from Mazda RX-8's on a common shaft with two turbochargers, so it should be in the range as a Tomahawk for power. The transmission is a 3-speed sequential with a diff to better preserve the tires. The ground clearance is also greater so getting stuck on a speed bump is a lot less likely.

[12:48:15 PM] jamesster: LEGO IS FINALLY MAKING A GAME WHERE YOU CAN RAID A BLACKTRON BASE SQUEEEEEEE I HAVE WAITED SO MANY YEARS FOR THIS [12:50:41 PM] [sGT] Alcom Isst: yay. [12:51:17 PM] jamesster: YOU'RE NOT HAPPY ENOUGH

The Snake, and a prop-in-progress Thanks for converting and working on my model, Cirevam. Does anyone know how to get it so that you can't build buildings and/or walk on the block this rock is on? If you try to build something there currently, you cannot cancel construction because the object is still on top of the construction area.

I hope it's alright with you Oboe Shoes, but I went ahead and added a lot more colors using your modified .LEB files as a base. Here's an updated list of parts that are now included: Default Bricks: None Default Race: None Default Space: 5 "1x2 tile with Handle" bricks (Black/Light gray/Green/Beige/Brown) Default Castle: 4 castle flags (Beige/Brown/Light gray/Dark gray) Captain Redbeard: Racing brown flag King Kahuka: 2 Light gray corner bricks. Basil the Batlord: 15 brown bricks (Basic bricks, corner bricks, spoiler).. Johhny Thunder: 11 beige bricks. Beige corners, spoiler and flag in the next set. Baron von Barron: Beige corners, spoiler, and flag + 8 "3 x 6 without corner" bricks (Red/Yellow/White/Light gray/Dark gray/Green/Beige/Brown) Gypsy Moth: 7 inverted slopes (Blue/Red/Yellow/Black/Green/Black/Beige). Rocket Racer: 17 dark gray bricks (Basic bricks, corner bricks, inverted triangle, spoile, racing flag). Veronica Voltage: 16 green bricks (Basic bricks, corner bricks, spoiler, racing flag). Most notable are the inclusions of brown and dark gray colors! Download

Powerbrick arches are the new phenomenon in LR. I was thinking of using these as checkpoints which the player has to pass in a given time or as fast as possible and compete for best times perhaps. Even if this idea does not appeal, it still makes pretty arches. Radius is customizable now.

(Nuclear power source not included)

Do you work at the Northpoint Mall or Sugarloaf Mills store? Because I was at the latter late November.

I could not figure out how to use the RRU gallery, but this'll do. Minifig from LU, hat from internet. (While writing this I figured out a 10 times easier way of getting the same result, but whatever ) Thanks to JimbobJeffers for the general idea of adding a Santa hat to default avatar. QUICK EDIT: Because of the way the image was linked, it has changed when I unequipped my santa hat. You'll have to wait till next xmas to see it again

I don't know, but McJobless is an Aussie. Maybe you could meet him?

(on the subject of cosplay) [7:42:17 PM] jamesster: I mean, I can enjoy watching it, but I'd never wanna do it [7:42:32 PM] McJobless: You blend into conventions better. [7:42:45 PM] McJobless: If you cosplayed as a red brick for Brick Fiesta, for example... [7:42:52 PM] McJobless: And then found a green brick... [7:42:53 PM] McJobless: Well, f****.

C'mon le, I don't think it's time to be moo'ving on yet.

Why do we keep posting these udderly ridiculous cow puns?

Meh, I prefer the udder racers.

It's the new Meals on Wheels.

Because otherwise it wouldn't meat safety requirements, duh! Fixed that for you.

Now that is fast food.

I believe Mr. Flashy McSnakerton was attempting to emulate the rather insane style of classic LEGO lore. Unfortunately, even LEGO lore requires a certain level of literary finesse, a requirement that Flashy failed to meet, thus the reactions.

NEW BIOME: More or less a variation on the Rock biome. Also, the Sand biome's power paths currently have sand on them, and I thought it looked pretty cool. I'm thinking of redoing the Power Paths throughout the biomes to look more interesting. Not sure what I'll do yet, but I've got some ideas. Also, I might modify the floor in either the Ice or the IceRock biome, probably the latter, to add a bit of snowy material. And here's an image of the Sand biome's now fully armed and operational rockfallstyle.

LEGO Star Wars was great but TT really need to stop now. We've got to the point where they've been doing LEGO games for like half of the total time LEGO games have existed.

A videogame... unlike any other? I guess we'll just see about that.

Review: Review: #4569 Warrior Review by origamiguy Photo Review So I read Review: Review: #4569 Warrior online. It comes with a tongue-in-cheek and humorous review. I'd like the photo a lot, but I have to say, the lack of anti-aliasing on the text leaves my eyes feeling violated!The review is good for kids who are young, as it is only 3 lines, akin to the review it's reviewing! The review is well thought out, and copies the poor writing style of the prior review for comedic effect. The review is like a good skirt; long enough to cover the material, but short enough to keep it interesting. Rating Design: 9 / 10 (1 mark dropped because it doesn't fit on my screen fully)Quality: 100 / 10 Fun: 1000 / 11 (this one goes up to 11.) Price: 10000 / 10 Is it a read it, or a skip it? I would go with read it for anyone who enjoys meta humour, but if you are not a person who likes fun, then it would be a skip it! Total rating: 9.5 (out of 11)
