Sometimes, I like to relax and listen to the ambient sounds of a game's audio, but there are times when said audio has noticeable key points in looping audio, or the audio is just non-existent altogether. So now here I am creating a mod that not only updates the audio by "improving" it, but also adding it to places where it never existed before! I highly recommend being in a quiet environment whilest watching for the full experience. This mod is still a WIP, and I've only gotten the first world done as well as a few common sounds, but I do hope to eventually tackle the rest of the worlds too! Notes: *Since the video I have lowered the rain volume as it was a bit to intrusive. *I'm not sure what to do with the beeping at the science lab/Xalax portal (shared) at this time, I haven't really had any luck finding any suitable soft beeps.

The .bat and Wrl[World] files need to be in the same folder as the WRL, otherwise nothing will happen. If it isn't working, make sure the WRL file isn't in a write protected folder! (You may need to move it to desktop)

More Builds! =D

Yay! A topic for sharing builds from classic LEGO videogames! =D Here's one of my first builds (though I'm sure lots of you have already built this :P) The Information Center from LEGO Island! Download all my classic LEGO videogame builds from my Google Drive folder HERE For those who don't know where to put downloaded models for LEGO Worlds. They go here: C:\Users\<PCUSERNAMEHERE>\AppData\Roaming\Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment\LEGOWorlds\MODS\MODELS

Apparently the Cybermaster software had a LOT of pre-rendered video clips created for it, as this channel has boatloads of 'em. Most are pretty short (the sort of things that'd be rendered in realtime these days) but altogether it's far more than I expected. https://www.youtube.com/user/mnptbrag/videos A few examples:

Download: http://oresome.rockraidersunited.com/download/313 Credit for the face goes to AaronBurner05, I just modified it for extra expressions. I would make a video but every recorder software is only capturing black screens in the screenshots/videos for this game for some reason. Goes over Turbo Charger.

In all my life, I never thought I'd see a theme more horrifying than the LEGO Basketballer range. Congratulations, you've brought this to my attention.

For those who wish to make their own sandy bay in LEGO Worlds

Admittedly, I already built the Information Center, but that was before any of the significant updates came along, limiting what bricks I had available, so your version is superior; And before you do it, heres my past recreation of the Police Station; Still, nice work.

Some of you may already be aware of LEGO News Show - a series of online shorts LEGO has been producing to advertise their product range that up to now has been available exclusively in German. BZPower has the scoop that the series has gained enough appeal to make the leap to international distribution. That means more languages - including, most importantly to monoglots everywhere, English. If you're curious you can see the 9 already available episodes in German here. Sources: BZPower

We've made it:

Cool! His suit looks a little too dark, though.

You'll want to watch episode 4 first. It provides context and explains some things.

You are a talented man, and it is depressing to see you waste your live like this. What has our world come to when the youth these days would rather make parodies and imitations than spend their time playing piano or doing heart surgery? I hope you're happy.

One thing led to another tonight and I ended up stumbling upon yet more stuff. First, an early article on LU with a big comment left by a Darwin guy: http://web.archive.org/web/20100929125221/http://www.virtualworldsnews.com/2008/09/lego-universe-f.html Some bits from the article: Side note; here's another article that mentions this: http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/111208/AGDC_Interview_How_NetDevil_Got_The_LEGO_Universe_Deal.php Anyway... The comment left on the first article: The first link is now dead but is on the web archives (it was posted here earlier): http://web.archive.org/web/20141214191125/http://www.talisman.org/~erlkonig/lego/lego-on-sgis/Main.html The second link is also dead, and not on the web archives - but, I found this, which probably has the same content: http://digitalartsguild.com/images/stories/galleries/greuel_christian/greuel_christian_gallery_batlord.html BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE: http://xenia.media.mit.edu/~kris/ftp/batsdragonsevilknights.pdf Geez. They were really serious about this. http://xenia.media.mit.edu/~kris/select_publ.html This page also lists a "Connected Worlds: The Future of Digital LEGO Toys" paper, but has no PDF. Its description is "LEGO Digital (SPU-Darwin) white paper". https://www.siggraph.org/s98/conference/panels/pn4.html http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=281380 http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=281559 You have to pay to access these, so I dunno what they contain.

All these videos, aaaaah. That space lemon line should be RRU's new slogan though.

Are those random minifig face textures on the wall in the background? WELL DON'T JUST STAND AROUND LIKE A SPACE LEMON FEEL THE 90S This does look like a cool set though. Again, plenty more beyond this on that channel.

The originally was less busy and the colours were sharper. I can just tell from the poster this is a budget project gone bad. Since I've got Netflix, I'll be tuning in for this one. I don't think it'll win me over, though. I still don't like the current parts design.

I might make some of my custom maps in LW with that and then give them to le717 to play. Unfortunately, there's no powerups, fans, or traps of any sort

I've had a lot of fun working on this next project (except for the awful driving controls in LEGO Worlds :P) LEGO Stunt Rally track pieces! For now I've only built the track pieces you can see in the screenshot (no wide turns yet) I think these could be a lot of fun once they improve the driving controls and add multiplayer.

Just finished another build from LEGO Island. The Hospital

I'm now really tempted to reply with "the ceiling" but I feel that the joke itself is so old that it's probably collecting it's pension or something. Anyways, hi. Welcome to RRU, it'll be nice to get used to you before you eventually don't come back and forget about us y'know, like 80% of the people from these welcome topics

The firmament, or so I've always been told. It's 12:41 AM. Do you know where your punctuation is?

First english episode is up!
