The Emoji Movie
The Ace Railgun and 2 others reacted to Lair for a blog entry
i'm glad the girl emoji has eyelashes and long hair and a body and clothes so that we know she's a girl and that the boy emojis have plain faces on the regular emojis so we know they're boys and don't confuse the inevitable forced heterosexual romance⢠for something gay3 points -

Monster truck wheels (replaces the wagon wheels)
RacerRabbit reacted to TheStranger for a topic
I made this tiny mod that replaces the Wagon wheels with re-textured wheels from Baron von Barron's car, making it look a bit like a monster truck. I mostly just copied the data straight from BVB's car files in piecedb into the ones from the wagon (DA). I hope I didn't forget to include any file in the mod so if you try it and it doesn't work, please let me know. Screenshots: Download link: monster wheels.rar Edit: I just realized the thing in the back of Joan of Cart's car is a stake because Joan of Arc was burned at a stake.1 point -

Musings on the New MNOG Info
Pranciblad reacted to emily for a blog entry
The biggest deal with Templar's update here is their original synopsis for the chapter. It elaborates on some things that are only implicit in the game. For example, Jala says something in passing that implies he isn't fond of the Ko-Koronans and keeps an eye on them, but the synopsis takes things way further: I love this. Jala, the stuck-up military mastermind who is married to practicality, probably hates those monks and their mystic, meditative lifestyle and thinks it's all the work of the devil. MNOG is really the only bionicle thing to brush on bonkle racism in a mature capacity and adds a lot to the world. You can see why he'd think like that because the game characterizes Ta-Koro and Ko-Koro are these far-off places from each other with distinct cultures and lifestyles. Also, you know, Fire vs Ice. Of course there would be tensions between them. It's a shame pretty much every other Bionicle story outlet relegates villages to kindergartens the Toa have to keep safe because THE CHILDREN MATORAN The script also decidedly refers to Takua/George as The Visitor. Tales of the Tohunga, the GBA game with Takua's name in it, was only a month out from release, so this raises a few questions. The Kini Nui is also referred to by an early name, the Temple of Legend. The synopsis also plays up the hunter aspect of Ko-Koronan lifestyle - it describes Takua overcoming various traps in order to reach Ko-Koro. The end of the synopsis also begins to suggest where the game would have gone if the PC game hadn't been cancelled, forcing MNOG to shoulder the burden of carrying the Toa's story to the finish line. Apparently the entire population of the island would have evacuated to the Kini Nui - this is pretty surprising to me, at most I expected the only difference would have been an expansion of the final minigame - the dialogue pretty clearly indicates it was supposed to be larger. I basically have MNOG memorized at this point which turns out to be pretty helpful when you are reading through a copy of the script posted by the developers! There are a few interesting differences: Jala Reply 2 Script Game Matoro/Nuju Reply 1 Script Game This is interesting! First off we have some classic Wairuha/Akamai confusion, something Templar seemed to slip up with a lot. More importantly, it looks like Akamai originally embodied Spirit, not Valor. Neat. But do you know what is even more interesting? Replies 1-2 and 1-3. When I read them in the script I knew right away I had never seen them before, but I checked and there they were in the files. To verify, I went to the dialogue in-game and, sure enough, they weren't there. This actually isn't the first time I've come across bits of replies in the files that don't show up in-game - however, unlike the other instance, which is the result of a bug, this appears to be intentional. The lines are actually turned off by the preceding code. I'd guess that they wanted to pare things down a bit to stay in keeping with the brevity of Ko-Koronans in general - a good call I think. Its cool to see more genuine article MNOG lines but these don't really add anything or say anything that isn't already said, implicitly or otherwise. Here's another section of dialogue that was cut out: It's possible there are other cut bits of script hanging around the MNOG files still. I'll probably go hunting for them someday.1 point -

Nexus Farce: IoI Vignettes
Ben_R_R reacted to Brigs for a topic
As the title implies, these are the vignettes which accompany Nexus Farce: Ingress of Imagination. Below are alternative views of the models and a brief description. Chapter 1 - Johnny Thunder and the Quest for the MacGuffin "Johnny Thunder and the Quest for the MacGuffin" Much of this model's inspiration ostensibly comes from classic Adventurers sets and the slightly more recent Indiana Jones sets. The eponymous MacGuffin is a Voltstone from the Insectoids theme, which is called an Imaginite Crystal in LEGO Universe. Includes one Johnny Thunder and one affable dismembered skeleton. The symbol behind our hero is a simplification of the insignia seen inside the Nexus Temple in the story cinematic trailer. The elevated region is also shaped after the insignia. The First Builders and Mythran apparently have a penchant for triangular geometries. A dozen of those useless flick-fire projectiles are embedded in the wall, and to their right is that one conspicuously protruding brick. A couple friendly swinging blades are suspended to the left, and the obligatory lava pit sits beneath. Skeleton.1 point -
LEGO Racers GBC Level Backdrops
PeabodySam reacted to Zed for a topic
For those not familiar with the Gameboy Color port, most of the PC track layouts are featured in-game. The only exceptions are Knigthmare-Athon, Adventure Temple Trail, and the REAL Rocket Racer Run (Alien Rally Asteroid takes its place, but the name is changed to RRR). Obviously, the graphics are simplified as well, but all of the levels have looped backgrounds to help indicate the locations. I ripped all 10 of them using the VisualBoyAdvance emulator's Map Viewer tool. Imperial Grand Prix: Desert Adventure Dragway: Dark Forest Dash: Tribal Island Trail: Amazon Adventure Alley: Royal Knights' Raceway: Pirate Skull Pass: Ice Planet Pathway: Magma Moon Marathon: Rocket Racer Run: NOTE - Some patches of sky displayed incorrectly on the emulator; I fixed them with the bucket tool.1 point -
