Hey guys, so I made a sandbox game where you can import your LDraw models into a procedurally generated world: https://sam-hsu.itch.io/ldplay It has online multiplayer and is completely free and open-source. I can't wait to see what people build!

This is cool! I wonder if you can change your character that you play as to a minifig you can import.

Man, that is the guy! ... can't believe he made it out into the wild. I wish I still had the model, I'd love to rework the texture lol. I think the reason he never made it to the game was he was deemed too scary for the kids. If I ever find the original drawing of him I'll share it here. Thank you, and great work on the remake.

I wrote a text at the start of the thread since this thread is now over 10 years old (anniversary time!). I also post the text here so you don't miss it : ). With a delay of about three weeks I noticed that this thread is 10 years old XD. Let's see, if I can come up with something insightful on the spot to distract from my "perfect" timing^^: I still think that this is a cool project and I would probably do it again . With today's software and hardware that's easier to do than 10 years ago and makes you appreciate the effort that the people at DDI & LEGO put into designing the ship over 20 years ago. In regards to what I expected from making this thread/model and what actually happened the results are a bit all over the place: on one side I hoped that it would get featured on blogs and websites besides RRU and maybe even getting the attention from the LEGO Company itself, but that didn't really work out (I only remember two times, where the model was featured in a blog or video). Maybe I am too introverted and not annoying enough on social media to make the existence of this ship known to everyone XD. On the other side this thread has gotten a ton of views and replies over the last decade and people started to integrate the ship model into a game (like Manic Miners from baraklava) or game engine or make MOCs based on the digital models. Also a big thanks to Cyrem and Cirevam, because otherwise RRU wouldn't exist as a central hub for Rock Raiders related content.
