In other news, I spent a fair bit of time today redesigning my music machine. It's about as space-efficient and organized as I can get it. There are two components; "down" wires and "up" wires. Each are 1x4, plays one beat per 2 z-levels, and could be as tall or short as you like (I opted for one measure per line— six beats, so twelve blocks high). Alternate between these:

"Down" line:

- Block Torch-L Wire
Note* Wire Torch-U Block

"Up" line:

Note* Wire* Torch-U Block
- Block* Block Torch-L

* - Optional, if you want a note on that beat.
Torch-L/U —> Lit/unlit by default.

The machine has 8 of each line. The inside area is 9x15x12, not including a few stray wires.

How are the torches attached?

Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?
Blueeyedrat Since: Oct, 2010

Each torch is on the side of the adjacent block. Same goes for an alternate design I made— 1 beat per z-level, but takes a little more space and is harder to loop with. (It's the design I used for the obelisk that plays the Metroid Item Get! tune.) Top-down view:

   Wire** Block -   
- Block* Block - Torch-U Wire* Note*
   Torch-L Wire Block   

* Optional output.
** Optional input— make sure it feeds into the block with the torch-L attached.

Go up, rotate 180 and repeat. You can also place a ladder in the center.

You have a remarkable lack of Lapis in your GLORIUOS THRONE ROOM Shlap.

Also.... oooooh Menger Sponge...

Thirdly: Given that what I would be building would essentially be a way of venting my anger at my parents, would that qualify under your rules Miij?

Thanks for the permission to go ahead btw Afti.

My server is up for the day.

I've updated/changed out some of my plugins, and I now have working elevator-signs, and more runes. Among other things.

Tutrtle, make sure that the driver for the graphics card is up to date.

In other news, I need a personal megaproject.

I get decent framerates on a two year old budget laptop. What specs does your computer have.

It's a Dell XPS Laptop. Core i5 CPU with 4 gigs of RAM and a NVIDIA Ge Force GT 420M graphics card. There is no reason it shouldn't be able to handle this game on at least medium settings... is there? Tried switching to a High Performance power setting, but all it did was sap my battery even more quickly. Giving the program High Priority in the Task Manager also did nothing.

Open up the graphics card control panel and see what is turned on. How you do this with a nivida I card I have no clue.

Just a warning Afti, Miij, if you can somehow get these mods working on your servers you will never be able to get me to leave.

All these mods are just helping to push me away because they make me feel as though the official game won't have anything as remarkable...

You gotta believe me when I scare you away, all that I wish for is that you would stay
