I had a great idea for this year. I was going to acquire a red bow tie, put it on, take a picture of me in my Sir avatar pose, then post it here as an impersonation of myself. I forgot when this was and I forget to get a bow tie. Oh well, maybe next year. I never realized how alike the two avatars are. That was totally my sub-conscience at work when I nabbed the screenshot for my "modern" Sir.

I noticed that when you load the infocenter in LI2, the camera is initially placed looking backwards from where it usually does. It corrects itself after a few frames, but this allows you to see what the rest of the building looks like inside: The PS1 version is actually a bit more detailed, with the Infomaniac working at a computer, and also allowing you to walk around freely. And of course, the inside of the building is detailed on the model loaded on the main island, too - most buildings are, actually, but you get to see the infocenter's interior up close in the cutscene where the Brickster escapes. Combined with the Whack-A-Bot minigame... Which one is the "real" one?

Finally, a new music! I have some more ready, so my schedule shouldn't be too random in these next few weeks. This is an ambient track, inspired by Earthbound, as well as Borderlands (not too much though). It's got 16-bit limitations too! The video should also be in a slightly higher quality, I did some stuff to make it look less blurry. I'm not sure if it worked out well or not.

I'm happy that everyone liked this mod. Thank you all for your likes and comments! Anyhow, I'm bumping this because I need to mention two things: Since I released this mod, I basically abandoned the Racers Rally Ramas (I know it's obvious). Although I made an attempt to start by creating textures for the characters, I quickly became frustrated because the results were messy. I also thought about creating names (and possibly cars) for them, but barely got into it. Nearly two years ago, @Shadowblaze messaged me about naming the Ramas and shared some ideas. I responded back with a few ideas as well, but that was where it stopped on my end. As the school year approached, I gave up on developing them any further. I'm thinking about making an update/alternative version soon. Since the textures aren't very high-res or LEGO-accurate, I've thought about creating my own from scratch. So far, I only made Ghost's face (the teeth probably won't appear on the actual "Mohawk" characters): Not sure how long this will take, but I'll post textures/screenshots as the mod progresses. Creating the unnamed Rramas would be much easier with my own layers, so I might also do them this time. I have no Idea if the UV mapping will allow me to successfully recreate their body patterns, though.

yeah steve, I hope that parasitic garbage can on your head clears up soon pal

Ooh, just thought of something in a LEGO game: The vocal clip at 2:52 in IXS's "Wannabe my LEGO" is edited from an audio file that can be found in LEGO Island 2 - _data\sounds\z01BPK\pep_rap.wav - as discovered by Jess like four years ago: https://instaud.io/1v20

The subterranean music from Frogger 2: Swampy's Revenge And Haunted Ship Zone, act 1 from Sonic Rush Adventure Both sample the song "Techno Slam" The samples are right at the start so they're really noticeable. It comes from about a minute in to the original.

holy s***, that's more degrees than pepper

0:30 (TrackMania Nations ESWC - TicTac) 1:05 (Hot Wheels Mechanix - Tiki Jungle) https://pro.beatport.com/track/world-tribal-crossroads-original-mix/1878069 (Hot Wheels Mechanix seems to have bought music rather than have stuff composed for it specifically) 0:18 (Vib-Ribbon - Laugh and Peace) 2:13 (Jet Set Radio Future - Bokfresh) Just curious, anybody got other examples?

The rock that's upside down there actually spins around. Yeah. I dunno what's up with any of this.

This almost got uploaded with a motion blur overdose, glad I noticed a found a quick fix mid-upload. Also, this was taken out of context. I probably should of done more animation on the limelight character, oh well, maybe next time, I'm still learning (I learnt how to make a motion camera today). I did a couple background anims this time though. Oh, I also bumped the FPS up to 48 to see how it would go. Edit: Bad idea of an FPS choice, now it looks crap if you aren't watching in HD. Sorry! What will I animate next? Who knows. Audio Source: This

Seriously! No bull! it's the bulls castle

I'll be on for a few hours, the show shouldn't last that long, right?

I'm starting a bit early, but I'm playing a couple rounds of Worms with a few RRUsers before getting into animating.

It's actually basically confirmed that Bergeaud used another sample, because of his musical influences, but it would be funny if he actually took that from Sonic CD. The percussion is completely different, yeah, but I was talking about the hihats. They do not quite match anyway, so this was just a big waste of time. I'd do that.

It doesn't bother me too much, I'm use to it. At worst I usually shut down after 1~2 hours if no one has come, or sometimes I just go on longer 'cause I really don't care that I have it running.

>tfw they buy 4 more goldfish and there's no room for you in the fishtank PS: I've got at least 18 posts queued so there's gonna be a new post every day. There's a new one there right now if you fancy a look too!

Thanks to none who showed up to my stream, I may do another one tomorrow. I can't give exact times as I don't have a set schedule, but the best chance is to catch me at 12AM midnight until X, PST time. I may consider doing a mid-day stream about 9 to 12 hours earlier as well if I'm not to terribly busy, just keep an eye on this around those times if you're interested (I'll definitely be around in the day, so I'll let you know in the title if streaming is going to happen at that time or not). Here's a teaser photo for the animation that was being worked on during the stream. http://postimg.org/image/3zr178iwz/ P.S. I just got this model put in recently, and I spent a lot of time getting it fully functional.

Hmm... that's weird, I'll see if I can fix that. I may end up getting rid of the skid marks altogether. The car itself is still a huge work-in-progress since vehicle physics aren't really my area of expertise. Also, for anyone wondering, I'm going to be releasing v0.95 soon, most likely near the end of next week. I've been really busy recently with another game I'm making for work and haven't had the time to sit down and work on this, but after this weekend I should have a lot more free time.

i guess i should start browsing cuusoo instead of deviantart for my daily dose of cringe

It was glorious. You are definitely surpassing Team Fortress SFMs standards.

Please do, they are wonderful.

Going above and beyond yet again

please watch
