It's taken a bit of work, but I'm proud to present my latest project: JJ's LEGO City. The sets have been accumulated over the past few of years, but the display was built over the last month for just £80, plus another £80 for the table it stands on (which has 8/16 shelves inside). I'm pretty pleased with that considering that display cases of this size cost far more than that to purchase from retailers. For those interested, it was built with the outsides of an IKEA KALLAX unit and three separate sheets of polycarbonate, a very clear material that is far stronger than glass. The front sheet has been removed, but is easily held in place with four small brackets attached to the KALLAX frame with small VELCRO stick-on coins. The whole thing stands on four more KALLAX units which I was going to get drawer and door inserts for, but they failed so miserably when trying to assemble them that I've returned them all in disgust (and I'm usually quite the IKEA customer). Without further ado, here are the rest of the photos of this display. For 6000x4000px versions of these images, see the links at the end of this post.

2021 Edit: FFmpeg has added support for LEGO Racers' tun and pcm files as of version 4.4. I advise everyone to use that instead of this program as this program isn't 100% correct. Thanks to mumboking for bringing this to my attention. Original post: Although I had already posted my ima2tun program >here, I've decided that a separate topic might be more easy to find. This zip file contains my ima2tun program tunconverter, SoX, and some handy-dandy batch files that do all the command-line work. To convert any* music file to .TUN/PCM, simply drag it onto the 'to-tun' batch file. It then creates a .tun file with the same name in the same folder. It's also possible to drag a .tun/.pcm file onto the 'from-tun or pcm' batch file to convert it to .ogg (filetype be changed in the batch file) Changelog: TUN files have a fixed sample rate of 22050Hz, but PCM files can have any sample rate. The number of channels in a TUN/PCM file is either 1 or 2.

[11:21:06 AM] Ramius Antillies: Hey Cire, what's that thing in Milkshape to fuse almost together vertices together? [11:22:18 AM] Ramius Antillies: Never mind, god it. [11:22:20 AM] Ramius Antillies: Flatten. [12:43:18 PM] Cirevam: Ctrl+N to put them on top of each other, then Ctrl+W to weld. Or you can use the Weld Nearest Vertices in the Vertex menu [2:49:52 PM] Ramius Antillies: Omg, Cire. [2:50:02 PM] Ramius Antillies: Welding is beautiful :`) [2:51:51 PM] jamesster: be sure to arrange your triangles in a way that allows for maximum stripping ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) [2:52:37 PM] Cirevam: Or assign to groups and unhide as needed [3:30:14 PM] Cyrem : [2:50 PM] Ramius Antillies: <<< Welding is beautiful :`) did you wear protection? ; ) [3:32:36 PM] Cirevam: It's okay, the smoothing groups were on his side [3:33:24 PM] Ramius Antillies: Silky smooth we are mature adults, you can tell by how many kids games we mod and how many sex jokes we make

I'm not quite certain what I just saw, but I'm not certain I want to see it again.

I wish I had screenshots, but when I was a kid, I thought it would be neat to create a living hell out of LEGOLAND that would ensnare unsuspecting visitors and prevent them from leaving. It started with that Boating School, and lots of water. I got plenty of visitors to get on those boats. Once I had two boats on a narrow patch of water squares... I erased everything around that area, effectively trapping them in the boats forever. But that was just the start. I then built a fountain nearby and an ice cream vendor, allowing visitors to watch the scenic display of a group of idiots who couldn't get out of their boats. I put plants and lots of concrete around. Then I created a Driving School, and surrounded the area with roads. I created a massive labyrinth of roads that always had one or two squares in the center for the purpose of trapping MORE visitors. I deleted the crosswalks to trap them, even adding rides to keep them from getting bored so fast. I don't know why, but I felt like a genius who just loved to watch those poor Minifigures suffer in LEGOLAND. Combined with my love of shooting Rock Raiders with those mining turret lasers and surrounding my LOCO town with volcanoes and placing the little bunnies in the middle of the road, I think my childhood is messed up. Has anyone else tried anything similar?

So being tired of the current 8 minigiure mess of parts we have to choose from in the default character builder, I decided to do a complete replacement, character builder icons and all, of all the 8 minifigs, and in an orderly fasion too. So, after 2.5 days and 145 file replacements later with a lazy-butt job on the chracter textbox pics, and a tough battle not to use same colored pants due to the constant character roster changing, here is what I got. Some Guy [Pack Exclusive] - Xiron Some Girl [Pack Exclusive] - Xiron Sky Lane (with imporper hair) [Pack Exclusive] - Xiron Pepper Roni - Merdon Rock Raider - Xiron Digger - BadDream Veronica Voltage - jamesster Classic Rocket Racer - jamesster Yes I used Steve's face for Some Guy, and Jan's face for Some Girl, but I did complete their facial animations!

Who is this Le7els guy you refer to? There is no RRU member by that name. There is an LMB user with that name and is probably active under that name elsewhere, but he joined the LMBs (and thus possible received his name there) in 2011. I, on the other hand, am le717, a name I use in all my online activities. I too received my name on the LMBs, but I received it in 2005. I have in one incident been confused with this Le7els guy, but I have never met him and am certainly not him.

Boom. If more angles are needed, let me know.
