IB3 Crane Timelapse by WeeHeeHee

It’s time for random building! I’m using the fullscreen feature so I could upload this in full 1080p as a test. The building style I try to follow involves using bold lines and very strong features because I feel that it looks as close to the original Incredibots creations as possible.

Footage sped up 20x, so this actually took 54 minutes to build.

IncrediBots Development Blog: The Sine and Product restitution formulas are broken!

ibdev:

The alpha testers have found that the Sine and Product restitution formulas (found by going to the Edit tab and clicking Sandbox Settings) is broken! These will be change and affect any bot and replay that uses either of these two formulas. Before we go further, let me explain what the restitution…

Over 9000 subscribers!? (update)

Posted: Mar 5th, 2013

Since this post more than a year ago, things have changed. I now have less than 9000 subscribers (8,573 since this post). One of the two main reasons is that I actually don’t post videos anymore (last video was 4 years ago since this post). The other main reason is when YouTube removed hundreds of thousands of inactive of inactive/dead accounts, resulting in a considerable drop of subscriber count for a lot of people. Now, it’s sort of going up and down around 8,500 now.

But, that hasn’t stopped continuing rise of views in my stick figure videos. In fact, as of the time of this post, when you search for “pivot” in YouTube, my “Stick em Up” video is the very first video in the search results. That video alone has 3.3 million views!

Anyway, just an update to the current situation of that.

SitePoint’s CSS and JS Flip-a-card Challenges

Posted: Mar 5th, 2013 - 1 note

Once in a while, I do their CSS challenges, but I never shared my results with anyone simply because I just use these challenges to test myself and keep my skills sharp. Today, they have a JS challenge and a CSS challenge. The challenges revolves around making a memory card game, where the player(s) try to get the matches by flipping over two cards. I recommend trying them (and their other CSS challenges, which they tweet out in their Twitter), especially if you’re a beginner.

Both challenges are related, as one deals with the JavaScript side of the challenge and the other with the CSS side. The main HTML must remain untouched. The beauty of this is that this will force the designers and developers to completely rely on just CSS or just JS to do their bidding, which is a very important lesson when it comes to easily swapping out bits of code without having to altering the HTML. I imagine that they will make different configurations of the CSS and JS entries as an experiment hehe.

This is my CSS entry.

This is my JS entry (with some of the CSS from the CSS entry (basically sans transitions) so you can actually see the divs).

This is both of them working together.

IncrediBots 3 v0.00.32a

Posted: Feb 27th, 2013 - 4 notes

The current build of IncrediBots 3 might become the next public beta!

First off, I apologize for not having any updates to both the alpha testers and the public. Work took most of my hours and other at-home projects have taken up the rest of the hours I have, leaving me with no time to work on IncrediBots 3. But now I have opened up some time to work on it once again!

The alpha testers are currently testing alpha version 0.00.32a. So far, there have not been any hitches. There are two main changes between this build and the last public beta: improved bomb explosion algorithm and semi-active continuous collision detection.

Internet Blackout of the Day: The Great Wikipedia Blackout of 2012 has begun.

Reddit, TwitPic, Mozilla, Mojang, and thousands of others will soon follow suit. The Internet is officially on strike! Why? Because the House and Senate are conspiring with the entertainment industry to break the Internet.

Make no mistake: SOPA has not been shelved. And a vote on PIPA is just around the corner. Luckily, hundreds of companies, charities, and notable individuals with strong moral character have joined forces to stop these dangerous Big Brother bills from moving forward.

The fight is far from over, but hopefully today’s blackout will help bring this important matter to the attention of folks who rely on the Internet for entertainment and education, but have so far remained oblivious to SOPA and PIPA and their harmful consequences.

If you absolutely must scab, here are a few useful links:

Big websites and companies like Google and Wikipedia are going to have their websites blacked out on January 18 from 8am to 8pm (EST) to demonstrate how it would be like if our everyday websites were inaccessible. If you have a website or a blog, join us!
