    Does anyone know which worlds have been rebuilt already?

  2. HappyAngryCatfish February 19, 2015 @ 2:51 PM

    Anything big happened lately?

  3. HappyAngryCatfish February 19, 2015 @ 2:58 PM

    What are LU points?

  4. Jonny February 19, 2015 @ 3:46 PM

    Can anyone post an instruction how to change the world per command or something like that?
    There isn’t a real instruction for that yet… 🙁

  5. CDFalcon February 19, 2015 @ 4:41 PM

    Okay guys, I am going no try to get my public server back online… Stay tuned(trying with MySQL enabled, my make a difference)

  6. caboose1543 February 19, 2015 @ 4:46 PM

    Tim will you make airplane and I “mythrans”(op us) or anyone else so we can begin building i’d love to start as soon as possible

  7. LU February 19, 2015 @ 6:12 PM

    How do I create a new character? When I type register, than the name the server crashes. Also, why do all the characters take me to nimbus isle? And when will the quest s work, and building work again?

  8. Jonny February 19, 2015 @ 6:47 PM

    I just found my old laptop… Maybe my german LU client is still on it. It’s not much but it’s another language to play with.

  9. Ted505 February 19, 2015 @ 8:22 PM

    Why is there not essentials on the Minecraft factions server, and for npcs use citizens 2

    • Jonny February 20, 2015 @ 12:57 AM

      Because Essentials is crap…
      I am a plugin developer so request the features you want to have ingame.

      • ted505 February 20, 2015 @ 11:29 AM

        ok, i want npcs that can attack. 1.8 armour stands can be usefull in a way i dont even know. quests, random loot. weapons that can do specific attacks AKA Posion or somthin…”Gasps For Breath”
        and some…more stuff

  10. MoGamin February 19, 2015 @ 8:50 PM

    How do I download this if you know how massage me at my email only

  11. Knightoffaith February 19, 2015 @ 8:56 PM

    I was looking at Replica Manager… I have no idea how I would implement that stuff. 😛 Probably doesn’t help that I don’t really have much knowledge on C++ program structure (ie headers and such). lol

    Will there be anything I can do development-wise that at max requires doing coding on existing infrastructure, and not doing stuff from the ground up?

  12. caboose1543 February 19, 2015 @ 9:45 PM

    In reply to Ted… He just got it up he’ll be editing it soon if you want to be part of the build team ask Tim to let you it all depends who he puts in charge of the LU server, The Head Mythran (PICK ME! PICK ME!) assuming he picks me i’ll have our MCLU team put together on planet minecraft and here. our current team planned so far…
    Timtech: Host of the server, Mythran, and hopefully builder
    Me: Head Mythran(PICK ME! XD) and builder
    Airplane: Mythran and builder
    Jonni: plug in coder, Mythran, and builder
    Anyone else who joins and develops on the world will be a Mythran lol i’m just planning this out in my head XD (PICK ME FOR HEAD MYTHRAN!) anyone else who wants to build or help with plug ins, textures, skins, or building officially reply below…….pick me for head mythran

  13. airplane1717 February 19, 2015 @ 10:36 PM

    Hey guys this comment is off topic.
    But anyways why is LNA so popular??
    Their graphics are so bad!
    And about the B.U.I.L.D what do you
    think about it’s closure?

    • Knightoffaith February 20, 2015 @ 10:22 AM

      LNA was one of the first fan groups along with BUILD and TLT, and is currently the farthest along. Their graphics are getting better, but they haven’t done much testifying or lighting…

      Shame about BUILD. I’ve seen too many splits and stopped projects in the LEGO community because of personal/group distinction. Honestly rather pathetic IMO.

  14. CDFalcon February 20, 2015 @ 9:32 AM

    Okay, my server is online… The ip is
    71.226.128.188
    So just edit your clients BOOT file, and try to join.
    You MUST login with the following username:
    guestuser
    and the following password:
    1

    Thanks, please post if it doesn’t work…

  15. kloe gurrela+ February 20, 2015 @ 10:13 AM

    ya lego universe works mom cum download it for me

  16. airplane1717 February 20, 2015 @ 10:21 AM

    Wow there’s so much peoples
    not knowing LUNI :/
    Look at Youtube comments
    Peoples don’t know about it
    and they say LU is gone!
    I always advertize but there is
    So much peoples who doesn’t know
    about it! And there is peoples saying
    “LU IS COMING BACK IN 2015!!!”
    I hate these peoples!

    We need advertizing on Youtube!

    • Jonny February 20, 2015 @ 10:27 AM

      I’ll advertise on Youtube in german language.

      • startreklover February 20, 2015 @ 12:25 PM

        ok cool, my German is horrible, and 1 out of every 5 or so comments are from someone who speaks German (sentence structure gives it away, even in English). so i could re-direct them to you when they ask a question, would that be OK?

  17. ted505 February 20, 2015 @ 11:27 AM

    I may not be good at building, but i know java well. and i know how to work with plugins

  18. Jonny February 20, 2015 @ 12:03 PM

    Ok Tim, I found the files of my old client.
    I’ll upload them in a ZIP file on mediafire.

    The download link I’ll reply to this post.

  19. Lego King February 20, 2015 @ 2:22 PM

    Where is startreklover and roboworrior. Also Ive been trying to contact raffa , he is still mad. Does anybody know why he stopped?

  20. Lego King February 20, 2015 @ 2:25 PM

    Also I think the whole min craft thing to recreate it is just too far. I think we should continue doing this. Because we have most of everything to bring it back but we just need to put it back together. Anyways doing that in mine craft would need mods with a LONG time of coding. So this is what I was thinking.

    • Jonny February 20, 2015 @ 2:29 PM

      You’re right…
      To make plugins could bring the venture explorer and the avant gardens back only…
      For the rest of LU we would need to code mods because of too many items and stuff.

  21. Jonny February 20, 2015 @ 2:59 PM

    I think we need a final vote for or against the Minecraft project.

  22. caboose1543 February 20, 2015 @ 4:00 PM

    Tim if you decide just start us off in a flat world in creative and hopefully you’ll op us as Mythrans so we can begin building i think we have enough builders for now 😀 I just want to contribute and this side project will give us who can’t do much on the LUNI server a way to contribute. and i think that’s just what we’ll call it…LUNIcraft…i can’t wait to start building

  23. Jon002 February 20, 2015 @ 9:00 PM

    Alright, so I bet everyone (especially developers) has been DYING to hear this:

    I have completed my documentation of the LUNIServer source, as well as character creation. I am wrapping a few things up, cleaning up some code, and then, hopefully very soon, am going to release server version 0.6!

    Answer the Call. Save Imagination.
    -Jon002

    • mater06 February 20, 2015 @ 9:56 PM

      WHERE… IS… DOCUMENTATION!!!!!!!!!!!!

      YOU… MUST… RELEASE… FOR US… JON, US…

      *Social services come and take me away…*

    • Knightoffaith February 20, 2015 @ 10:36 PM

      Great to hear. Would it be possible for me to help develop whatever’s next? As I mentioned earlier, I don’t know enough about c++ to be able to implement stuff (classes) from scratch, but I can code and do some work manipulating the files and such… I probably wouldn’t be able to run the application though as my dad has concerns about the security of running Apache (I’d need to have a virtual machine or a separate computer, and it would need to be Windows so I’d need to buy a license, and even the hosting I can get free with the GitHub student backpack only has Linux).

      • Jon002 February 20, 2015 @ 10:43 PM

        Absolutely! I would love help (that’s why I am documenting the source 🙂 ). Basically, I feel there is a split between the first devs and those who want to help now, as they weren’t with us at the beginning to see how we created the source. I want to remove that split and allow the server to be available for anyone to use and develop!

        Answer the Call. Save Imagination.
        -Jon002

        • Knightoffaith February 20, 2015 @ 10:57 PM

          Right. Honestly, my coding experience is pretty sparse, but I hope to help as much as I can.

          Me looking at RM: Great, instructions!
          Instructions: Implement these.
          Me: Wait, do what where?

          :p I can deal with doing logic, but… Those instructions were too vague when I probably should’ve been able to understand them lol. Please let me know if there’s anything specific I can do. Grunt work is cool. :p 🙂

        • Jonny February 21, 2015 @ 4:52 AM

          Up to this moment I was a java developer only…
          But I’ll learn C++ and try to modify the server based on the documentation.

    • Jonny February 21, 2015 @ 4:49 AM

      That’s awesome !
      I want cry like a little baby…

    • RoboWarrior February 21, 2015 @ 9:16 AM

      What will be different in 0.6, does the character creation save?

      • Knightoffaith February 21, 2015 @ 9:56 AM

        You can save your character, but not load it yet. Jon was also able to document all the code and do dynamic char and author packet creation.

  24. Jonny February 21, 2015 @ 5:56 AM

    I’ve got a question to Jon002.
    With the RM we can only handle the location, look and sounds of an entity right?

    What is about the damage that entity deals to the player ?

  25. CDFalcon February 21, 2015 @ 8:23 AM

    Okay guys, I have a question. Timtech, where can I find where the packets spawn NPC’s?

    • Knightoffaith February 21, 2015 @ 2:25 PM

      That’s a Replica Manager thing. NPCs are treated like all other objects from what I’ve seen.

  26. CDFalcon February 21, 2015 @ 9:15 AM

    Ladies and GentleMinifigures…
    I am proud to announce that I have created a new version of the server…
    This server is almost the same as Jon002’s, but with a few changes.
    1. My char creation is done server side, not in game, making it harder to create.
    2.(aka the good news) You can put armor and gear on your fig!
    3. The server loads your char every time you get on, but DONT click on him to play… This will freeze you on the loading screen(not sure how you made it load CheekyMonkey Jon002, but very nice. *round of applause*)

    So I am still figuring out all the odds and ends, but basically my server will allow you(with some difficulty) to create a char with armor and helmets and… everything!

    Also, Jon002, would you like to team up?

  27. airplane1717 February 21, 2015 @ 10:46 AM

    ONIX I know you made a troll video
    showing as if you are playing LU.
    I think you’ll need to apology.

      ONIX I know you are here.
      You have some LU points and
      I can see it at the leaderboard.

    • Natsu22 February 21, 2015 @ 11:40 AM

      This video is in my Language. (Polish)
      I can understand everything in this video. And i can hear, “HOW” he is talking..
      Seems like…. he don’t know much what is mmorpg, and what is Lego Universe
      He said he made his own server, and all playing players are his friends.
      Ehh, its funny, because it’s and old video, but he added a cam ;_;

  28. kipth3cat February 21, 2015 @ 1:22 PM

    hey timtech, how long after 0.6 is released do you think that !goto will be finished? or will you put it in before its released?

  29. MasterZx February 21, 2015 @ 2:52 PM

    0.5.1 out finally!!!!!!

    • Timtech February 21, 2015 @ 5:38 PM

      It’s just the source update for compiling to Release that Jon uploaded a while ago. I just realized now that it wouldn’t make sense to merge it with 0.5.

  30. Jonny February 21, 2015 @ 3:35 PM

    My Youtube channel is now online:
    https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBgdRqI0kS0OMaJTgDqvRnw

    I’ll advertise to german people and teach them how to use LUNI software.

  31. Timtech February 21, 2015 @ 6:23 PM

    Fun Fact:

    LUNI stood for “Leggendary Universe Nations Iperspace” when first used by raffa.

  32. Jonny February 21, 2015 @ 6:42 PM

    Tim, what is about the german client files I’ve uploaded ?
    I can’t wait to play the game in german again !!! 😀 <3

  33. Jonny February 21, 2015 @ 6:57 PM

    If there is a german person with a question on your YouTube channel and your German isn’t very good tell him to visit my channel. I’m from Germany 😀

    On German that would mean:
    “Besuche den Kanal von ‘Self-Styled Mythran’. Er wird dir besser helfen können als ich”

  34. Grant Imler February 21, 2015 @ 7:24 PM

    Timtech…will the 0.6.1 update will have /goto…that won’t replace rockets right? They are just a temp…correct? I want LU to stay the same 🙁

  35. Jon002 February 21, 2015 @ 11:12 PM

    Alright everyone. I have awesome news and bad news.

    Let’s start with the awesome news! I have finally completed my LUNIServer 0.6 and have uploaded it to Tim’s site in two ZIP files: Debug and Release.

    Release: http://timtechsoftware.com/lu/LUNIServer/Versions/0.6/Release.zip
    Source: http://timtechsoftware.com/lu/LUNIServer/Versions/0.6/Source.zip

    Now, I understand people may be running around excited (or may just be completely calm, muttering “awesome”… I don’t know everyone’s personality) but first let me explain everything. What the Release version is is basically just that: a release. This ZIP file comes with the LUNIServer EXE and the required files to run the server without Visual Studio installed. Another thing to note is the new “names” folder along with the “world” folder as well as the removal of the “auth” and “char” folders. Basically, the “names” folder contains the txt files from the client that have the pre-defined usernames in them so when the client creates a char, the server knows what the pre-defined name is (if you want to research this more, look at CharPackets.cpp and CharPackets.h in the source). So basically, do NOT delete this folder or rename it! Also, the removal of the “auth” and “char” folders basically is just because I have gotten dynamic packet construction to work for these two servers (I have not gotten it for world, that is why that folder still remains).

    Now for the Source version. Developers of the LUNIServer, this is what you want! It contains the source code of the LUNIServer as well as everything else needed to develop the server. SQL settings have been added (you may want to double check these as they may have been set to absolute paths to the files…) as well as the RakNet and SUtil libraries that are required. It also DOES contain the “char” and “auth” folders just in case (they are not needed for the release, but developers may still want them).

    What developers will definately notice is some new classes and headers (such as Packet.h, Packet.cpp, AuthPackets.h, AuthPackets.cpp, etc.) as well as extensive documentation. What this is used for is basically to help explain the server; for example, it helps show what the CharactersPacket struct contains in CharPackets.h or what the DoubleLinkedNode is in SUtil\Queue.h. Hopefully, this documentation will help new developers to be able to understand how the LUNIServer is constructed, and what everything does. I have tried to explain methods, structs, variables, you name it! So I REALLY hope y’all find it helpful! (If you don’t, I give you permission to chew my head off :P).

    Now, included in both releases, the is an SQL folder. This contains a file called “Database.sql”. What you just need to do is start a server (localhosted or remote) and import the SQL file… No manual database creation needed! It does this for you! Basically what it does is create a database named ‘luni’ and then inserts different tables into it.

    Also, SQL is REQUIRED for this server. Otherwise the characters will not save as they would have no where TO save to.

    Lastly, you CANNOT simply login to the server with any username/password combination. You have to create a username and password from the server. This can currently be accomplished by typing “register” (without quotes) into the server console and creating a username/password combination. (By viewing the database source, it is also possible that someone could create a PHP script to do this as well).

    Well, that has been my awesome news! You can now create characters!!!

    But as for the bad news, well…. sigh 🙁

    Due to some unforseen events that have come my way, from this point on I will no longer be able to actively develop the LUNIServer. This does NOT mean I have decided to quit the team or don’t like the project at all! I love coding this server! But due to these events, I will be out of commission for a period of time. I just want to say though, that it has been awesome coding with y’all guys and creating this server! I could not have done it without y’all’s support and encouragement!! (I make it sound as if I am leaving permanently… I’m not though). I will definately visit this site often, but what my hope and plan with this release is that new developers can take what we’ve started and run with it! Take it too its limits! Don’t be afraid to code this thing! Who knows, perhaps you may be the releaser of the next server version 0.7 or even 1.0 with world access! But thanks for everything guys! If I can get another change to continue this work, I definately will take it!

    Also, can’t forget the most important part:

    • Timtech February 22, 2015 @ 2:20 PM

      Great work! Sorry this got caught as possible spam due to the links, but it looks really good. I’ll update the downloads page soon, and hopefully try to add a /goto command into 0.6.1. A public server could be on the way as well… 😀

      P.S. I’m having trouble compiling to Release; “error C1083: Cannot open include file: ‘my_global.h’: No such file or directory”. I’ve included the whole MySql\include folder, including the my_global.h within.

      • Timtech February 22, 2015 @ 3:59 PM

        Hmm… 

        #include "MySql\include\my_global.h" instead of #include <my_global.h>

        fixes that but then my_global’s includes are generating errors. I’m confused here.

        • Knightoffaith February 22, 2015 @ 11:09 PM

          If I have the chance, I’ll look at that for you tomorrow. I know what needs to be done, but I forget what it is. 😛

        • Knightoffaith February 23, 2015 @ 4:43 PM

          That’s really bizarre. Jon used a relative path… It should work out of the box (except you need to turn SDL checks off. 😛 Not sure why every version still has them on when it throws errors, along with the italian folder names).

    • Jonny February 22, 2015 @ 2:28 PM

      Thank you for everything you’ve done ! <3

      • airplane1717 February 23, 2015 @ 1:49 AM

          What! the server says Terminated unable to
          connect to the database!
          I installed Mysql but why?
          It says database so it should mean Mysql :/

            Follow these steps:
            In skype:

            Go to Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Connections and uncheck the box “use port 80 and 443 as alternative”. This should help.

    • Rybat117 February 23, 2015 @ 7:02 PM

      First of all, thanks for all your help Jon!

      Second, whenever I launch the server it says ‘Terminated unable to connect to database!’ I’m assuming this is the SQL thing. I looked through Jon’s post again but I still don’t know how to do it. If anyone could help me out that would be great.

    • triggerhappy552 March 6, 2015 @ 11:49 AM

      How do I do this? I’m confused….

      Hell, I am having difficulties downloading the Nexus2 game and the 0.6 server. Is there anyway anyone can put me in a step by step way to install it.

      P.S. I have it installed I just need to mess with the files.

    What MC Version is the server???

  37. SuperGeniusCreator February 22, 2015 @ 7:26 AM

    I’ve been following you guys for a while now, and I think I should warn you guys about making a LU Minecraft server. It’s already being done:
    http://legouni-craft.webs.com/

    I’ve checked out the server and they’ve already finished both Pet Cove and Nimbus Station. (You can’t visit them on the server right now though, as they are down for 1.8 maintenance.) They’ve also created a LU resource pack which is pretty neat-looking. (Requires MCPatcher to look best)
    Perhaps if you are going to pursue that sort of project you should work with them?

    Also, thanks for all the work on the LUNI server. It sounds like you’ve been making some nice progress. 🙂

  38. SuperGeniusCreator February 22, 2015 @ 7:38 AM

    Also, I was wondering… what exactly is the LUNI Launcher? And do you still need to do the whole Visual Studio thing with the 5.1 server?

    • Timtech February 22, 2015 @ 2:22 PM

      The LUNI Launcher is a separate project by TheNyJan, and you only need Visual Studio for versions 0.5.1 and above if you use the source version.

  39. Ted505 February 22, 2015 @ 8:11 AM

    Is there specifc online times for the mc server, it seems to be down all the time?

    • airplane1717 February 22, 2015 @ 9:45 AM

      Acuatually it’s on all the time!
      First it seems it’s closed but
      if you connect to the server
      you will be joined!

    Just to clear things up a bit the Minecraft server *WILL NOT* be for coders and those who are coding for the actual LUNI server. It ‘s purpose is to give those who can’t help much a chance to contribute . The LUNI server is the main priority the Minecraft LU remake is just a side project. There won’t be any plugins but if you guys want them I’ll be glad to host a server if TimTech will lend me the world files because I have the RAM for it. ….
    (Pick me for head Mythran!)

    Questions to the developers:

    Are missions server side ?
    And if they are, what is about the objects the mythrans gave away within the last day of LU ?
    Could you create custom missions to get some of them ?
