Welcome to the LEGO Universe, newly imagined (LUNI) server project.
We’ve moved to LUNIServer.com. You can expect us to be moving there, since there are forums, tutorials, and lots of help.

Hey guys, hopefully sometime in June the public server will be up with the help of a special host 🙂
Awesome! Who is this “special host” though? Or can you tell us 😉
Answer the Call. Save Imagination.
-Jon002
I’m thinking the special host is Darwin.
Or maybe it’s just me dreaming.
Yes you are dreaming
Tim and Darwin have really different opinions. So I hink You are dreaming
*think
😀 😀 😀
Eeee… No?
It was a reply to @guy1853
XD
Hey.
I asked about that maybe 1 year ago. But i still don’t know that!
Why you wanna open Public Server, if RM is not working yet?
Few question about it:
1. Will there be local chat?
2. Will we be able to see each other?
3. Will properties work?
1. Probably not.
2. No.
3. No.
yes there will be all features from the original LU well almost all.
hey 1. will this public server be accessible for everyone from all countries?
2. when will the character creation be ready?
1. Yes, assuming their government or Internet Service Provider does not block it.
2. Not sure; creating/saving/loading is done, but not playing as that character.
Hey Timtech as a personal extreme LU fan I just wanted to say thanks! Also with the public server will there be NPCs and enemies just like in the game or will it be more like the private servers we have now with NPCs here and there and no enemies?
Hey Timtech,
I’d like to know which version of the original LU game you use to recreate it and what your current goals are. The actual progress of the project would be very interesting.
Skywalker360
PS: I still got 2 versions of the LU game boxed as new with the original release version of the game. It’s sad that I never gave them to a friend or somebody else. -.-
excuse me i was wondering i played Lego universe when i was young it was one of the most amazing games i ever played i went under the name coolbrick101 but sadly i never remember my passwords so this version your rebuilding and making do i need my old account? or can i jump right in what your doing is the most amazing thing ever and i need to try right now its currently downloading(please respond)
Just wanted to let people know, I have uploaded my (very unstable) source to github. It is under Source/LUNI-Unstable-Dev/. It contains a lot of what I’ve been working on as well as some very basic implementation of the ReplicaManager.
Answer the Call. Save Imagination.
-Jon002
Great. Hopefully people will be able to help improve on this and get it to the point where it can be stable and more universally used so we can get some features built on top of it.
Hey Knight, accidentally created two PRs if you could sort that out.
=Progress! Thank You Jon!!!! 😀 😀
A small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.
I’ll look at it tomorrow.
😀 😀 😀
(That’s my new footnote)
STUPENDOUS JON! This will definitely pave the way for later developments! I’ll look at it right now!
Is there a word that is better than “STUPENDOUS”? If the is I say
Jon! This is the best news In the world of LUNI!
What part of RM you made?
The primary execution is inside WorldLoop, with at least the starting point for instantiating the character in the scene.
Now I gotta figure out how to run it, so I could test out the new features.
I know a lot more of c++ and some rak net now. Where do I start coding when I’m done ?
https://github.com/jaller200/LUNIServerProject
How do I run it? Everytime I use the Local Windows Debugger to run it, it says the build was unsuccessful.
Please tell us what’s inside the error list.
List of errors:
Errors 1-5: error C4996: ‘inet_addr’: Use inet_pton() or InetPton() instead or define _WINSOCK_DEPRECATED_NO_WARNINGS to disable deprecated API warnings c:\users\guy1853\downloads\luniserverproject-master\luniserverproject-master\source\luni-unstable-dev\source\raknet\tcpinterface.cpp 198 1 RakNet
Error 6: error LNK1104: cannot open file ‘libmysql.lib’ C:\Users\guy1853\Downloads\LUNIServerProject-master\LUNIServerProject-master\Source\LUNI-Unstable-Dev\Source\LINK LUNI Server
I’ve fixed those issues on my latest GitHub versions (0.5.0a and 0.6.0a, and eventually I will add Tim’s code into 0.6.1a, but haven’t had the chance). I haven’t gotten to release it, I’ll try to do that at some point soonish…
In the meantime, the first one can be fixed by changing SDL checks to no in the general C/C++ area of the RakNet project properties, and the second one can be fixed by copying that file from \mysql\lib into \debug and \release.
How do I do the first thing? I don’t really know C++, but I wanna test the Replica Manager.
Okay, so I got the 6 one fixed, but now it cannot open RakNet.lib!
Thank you! I finally got it to work!
Can anyone get me this WITH the .exe file? I want to use it.
I think it is interesting to post this here Remember that ugly thing named BOB in LUR?

Alanzote, you are back?
I am allways here…. watching in the shadows….
Anyone know what the map files are? I’ve used the PK Extractor. Im trying to find out import them to Gmod.
I don’t think You’ll get it working, the maps are in a compiled version, If you wish to open the in Gamebryo it’s one thing, import them to a different game, that’s difficult! Also, I’ve seen that all the models from the maps are in Mesh\ Folder, so you’ll have to convert the map, the models and if you get the map working, they’ll problaby be without any models.
The maps File are located in where\did\you\extracted\maps\
models for the maps are located in:
where\did\you\extracted\mash\env\
I think thats Illegal to take the files and use them for something else.
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
Definitely for anything commercial. Private/non-profit is a grey area.
Any luck with fixing the items? Can you change weapons or shoot?
Hi Tim , im asking if you will be putting in the Missions , and that you can make your own Character ? And could you use the Rockets ?
He can’t put missions, playing as your own character, etc. It need RM (Replica Manager) No one know how to use it so… You just need to be patient.
I recently found a video with finished gameplay footage, and a link to LUNI 0.6. Was the video faked or something?
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5ErQABF5kQY
Yes, it is faked. He is copying random replies by me on my site for some reason. I will see about this. Natsu/Rabbit21 translated the Polish for us if you’d like to ask him.

Have you seen rioforce’s texture collection?
Nope, what is that?
https://github.com/rioforce/LEGO-Textures
He’s made digital textures from scans of real LEGO bricks. They look like they would fit right into LEGO Universe Rebuild. Make sure to credit him if you do 😉
Sorry this may be classified a “SPAM” to some people but I noticed nobody has seen the app besides me or the people who I live with. So another small update with SCREENSHOTS! 🙂

I think you should link the GitHub repo…
http:/github.com/jaller200/LUNIServerProject
Yeah, as development. I already added it to legouniver.se, which should be ready to release soon.
Thanks to those custom spam scripts this was instantly approved 🙂
So do you like the look or should I go for a better look like this:

I think it looks great as it is. I suggest adding legouniver.se and luni.info as sites, though.
Too late I’m changing it to a legouniver.se look. 🙂
It will just feel a lot better like that.
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
Okay, that’s great too.
Really nice! 😀
I love how you didn’t even credit everyone who helped with the actual project, but you credit yourself for making a near useless fairly good looking app.
Did you check the developers page link (third from last)?
Not really sure where he got the idea that I worked on LUHUB.
Hey everyone!
I am here to tell you that i hit 1000 LU Points!
I’m here for a long time, and i am checking this website frequently.
I just wanna thanks for all the peoples that are there with me.
Also special thanks for the Jon002, Joni2012, Airplane1717, Tim, Caboose, HappyAngryCatfish, Mater, Lego King, and Alanzote.
Thanks to everyone for great time that i have by staying there!

Also I can’t believe I’m on the list. One day I’m not doing anything but commenting the next I’m learning C++, making an App, working on a mac version, launcher art, and a time capsule.

LU points doesn’t mean
anything.
It is just too addicting.
It makes you to spam.
I experienced it too.
Ehhh…
LU Points doesn’t mean anything. Right.
But i just wanted to tell, how long i am here.. with LUNI..
But some peoples just don’t understand.
I understand 🙂
Me too I was just joking about the spam.
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
Ikr?
One minute I’m a mere commenter, the next I’m developing the server and organizing a git.
Well, you’ve contributed to the Git. Most people haven’t. Result? You’re a developer!
I haven’t been on at all lately but I’m checking any new updates guys with any progress with NPC’s or worlds?
These questions are so broad and without precision I don’t know what to say.
Jon has developed some framework for the replica manager, and I’ve started contributing by developing the server a little bit too.
How many of you can play the piano from sheet music?
Ehhh, meh?
TRANSLATION: uh, me?
???
Um me…
But why the heck do you need to know????
me too
Well I’m writing some sheet music for the LEGO Universe theme 😀
If you upload LUNIbundle, me too (a bit).
Why do you ask?
Special question…
Me maybe also. (But just if you upload LUNIBundle)
Iv`e learned Piano for 2 years
My dad can. 😛

UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH I MISS LU!!!
Everyone does…
I MISS LU!!!
It will probably come back anyways…
It is an amazing game that none can compare,
And twas a sort of second life, that we all did share.
It is painful to say good-bye, to many good friends,
And to the people I talked to through the mail, messages I sends.
I will miss this place, a sort of refuge,
And to the props whose height is huge.
I have spent much time, and dedicated many days
In Avant Gardens, once beautiful animals did graze.
I will always remember the times I had with many buddies,
Whose knowledge of this game made me feel like puddies.
Good-bye LEGO Universe, we will all miss you,
And like the bird on the wing, you were gone because you flew.
A poem by Shadowfighter65. (a bit of grammar corrected by WolfSkin)
WolfSkin, it’s not over. Developement is still in Progress (even if there are not many people developing). So please don’t write “Good-bye LEGO Universe” but “Hello again, LU!”
For us it will always be an amazing game that none can compare,
And twas a sort of second life, that we all still can share.
A poem by bluebrain
😀 😀 😀
Ik LU isnt over. The poem isnt from me and it was from when LU was closed down. I posted it here because I wanted to share what I like not what I thought.
It’s nice 🙂
I can’t write a poem… 🙁
But I can say that LUNI will not die, so LU will come back. It may take long time, but at the end we have LU back.
Not a poem by Mister Piano
I can. 😀
Roses are blue bricks,
Violets are red bricks,
This makes no sense so play some LU
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
This poem is pretty good!!!!! 😉
So does anybody have the beta/alfa or free to play installer or files I can have. Im going to use them for my time capsule. I’m not talking about want came with the disk.
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
Only veterans like Neal and Jamesster have those… 😛 But someone might! 🙂
I had both but I lost them from switching computers. 🙁
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
Quick question. cheeky monkey, monkey brown, and the other guys, were they originally in LU like in someones files or just made up for LUNI?
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
Interesting question!
This would be nice if it’s cleared up by someone.
They’re pwjones old characters that he captured packets for. Since he has the packets for those characters, he can use them.
Are they in the client of our original LU launcher files?
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
No, he got packet captures from the original LU Server…
Was he in touch with the mythrans?
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
I don’t think so.
They are my characters from LEGO Universe – well one, monkeybrown, was my daughter’s character.
When I heard LEGO Universe was closing, I used Wireshark to capture all the packets I could. Until humanoid24 determined how to decrypt them, they were fairly useless 🙂
I never spoke to any mythrans.
Wow thats interesting. Now I wonder what happened to all of our characters? Just locked up as an archive by lego I guess. Or deleted! 🙁 Man I still remember mine. I was such a noob. 😛
Lego King
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
Okay, I hope this post will clear somethings up for people who don’t know.
1. LUNI isn’t dying. There are not that much people developing, but Jon002 make good progress with the RM.
2. You can’t use any of the LU assetts in any other game. This is illegal. Lego forbid it.
3. There are many fake videos on Youtube. Some of them refer to LUNI, other not. But the most of them use LUNI, maybe with other textures or something.
Try not to do this its “spam” :p
We (Tim) should just put this on the FAQ
Tim you are saying you are putting this on the new site but put this on there no to reduce spam. Also change it where it says you don’t need xamp for the versions of 0.5 or over.
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
You say this is spam?
Spam is that what you made on page 51/52. And some people asked these question many times. Just wanted to clear things up.
Just joking because it felt like every time I tried to do this like before on the previous page I was told I was the spam. I know your not spam.
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
GUYS! I made a discovery! (Idk if people know about this) I was looking at the files in my original launcher and I found object files like the ones made with bricks and I found they a LEGO Digital Designer files! There is a lot! So does anybody know this? I guess its just me who doesn’t know much about the client.
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
-_MAC UPDATE_-Im also contacting cider for the LU mac client hopefully I can use it. 🙂
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
Jon’s already got patcher/cider working for Mac.
Ya but its a hard setup and download. Its just ripped from the disk so there is nothing important.
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
No, he set it up to work. Mine is a CD rip.
would you mind telling me where you found them? 😀 that would mean alot, thanks!
Its not in our Nexus 2 client folder but its in the Client folder thats in my original LU launcher I played with. Its in client/res and there is a folder called brick models. here is the screenshot left nexus 2 right my original lu files:
http://i.imgur.com/y9eCuy7.png
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
-_MAC UPDATE_- I can’t get cider they made an agreement with lego to only give it out tho 3rd party people IF they have LEGO’s permission. BUT I don’t think I read the email right here it is:
Indeed we did create the Mac version of Lego Universe – thanks for looking us up. Are you bringing the game back with the blessing of Lego Systems A/S, or on your own as a fan effort? Has Lego opened up the Lego Universe client and server code? If so, we haven’t heard about it.
If your efforts are commercial, and have the blessing of Lego Systems A/S, we can definitely speak further. If not however, our agreements with Lego would prevent us from getting involved.
Take care,

Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
Me too I found it but i can’t open it with my lego digital disigner it says that the files or in an old format.
So if someone is able to open theme please tell it.
The .nif models can be exported with NifSkope, if I recall correctly.
Their not in the client its has to be in the files of a Lego universe Launcher that has been used. You have to use .LXFML extension, at least thats the one I use.

@Jon
I set up the source and MySQL for your unstable dev version and now I’m trying to play with one of your chars(:P) but it stucks at 100% world loading…
I think you are not looking… *Cough*Unstable*Cough*.
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
Do you think I’m stupid?
Maybe it’s unstable but I used his characters and even in an unstable version his characters should work because he’s presumably using them for testing…
Nope its just me who is stupid. 😛 I worked before with a lot of young kids on stuff so I helped them out by stating the obvious to us. I just got used to that so Sorry. 🙁
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
No problem m8 😛
Right now it gets stuck at 100% for some unknown reason :(. I believe I changed a couple values in the Replica class (the name or the accountID or something). Make sure nothing is changed in the class after being read, only let it be read from the packet and written to the bitstream (I really hope this makes sense).
I believe it really is because the world_2a.bin (the chardata packet)’s info and the local char create’s info (I believe it is world_2_1.bin – starts with 0x24 and has “00 08 00 00” on the top line) must match, otherwise something goes wrong and nothing loads (I haven’t tested this just yet though).
Answer the Call. Save Imagination.
-Jon002
I have also written a script to decompress the data in the chardata packet. I will upload it soon…
Answer the Call. Save Imagination.
-Jon002
Hey Tim!
I know, it’s really stupid question, but i need to ask.
When LUNI Server 0.6 has been released?
Tim do you have free to play or beta/alfa files?
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
Nope. Version 1.10.64.1 only. (And the CD).
Ok everyone. I’m hoping this aids development for anyone, so I have written a decompression script for the world_2a.bin packet. Because the data is zlib compressed, this script will scan (because the world_2a.bin has some uncompressed data attached to it) and decompress it.
You can download my script here: http://www.mediafire.com/view/vd9t3qfqg0pff0l/ZLIBDec.py
On the command line (or CMD) type: python ZLIBDec.py “path/to/file.bin”. This will create a new file that has the name (assuming the original is file.bin) file-decompressed.bin. Hope this helps 🙂
Also, all variable wstrings as well as the xmlData has a 4-byte length specifier before it.
Answer the Call. Save Imagination.
-Jon002
You can also send the packet uncompresssed. Just remember to add the required data to it:
First, figure out the size of the uncompressed data and convert that to hex, then write the bytes backwards. For example, if the length of the data is 10 bytes, 10 in hex is 0A, and so four bytes would be “00 00 00 0A”, but backwards would be “0A 00 00 00” (if the data was “00 01 00 0A” then backwards would be “0A 00 01 00”).
Then, make sure to add 53 05 00 04 00 00 00 00 to the beginning and then add the 4-byte data found above, followed by a 00 (this means the data is not compressed). In all, the added data should be 13 bytes BEFORE the uncompressed data. Save that as a new file and send it via the server 🙂
Answer the Call. Save Imagination.
-Jon002
Nice! So we can send world_2a uncompressed along with the other packets as normal?
Yep. Just make sure to mark the data as uncompressed (that’s what the 13th byte – the 0x00 – is for).
Answer the Call. Save Imagination.
-Jon002
Great! Would there be any advantage to compress it again?
Probably just quicker to send. For now, it would take a bit of work to recompress it though. I would recommend sending it uncompressed ATM until we get the server working a bit more.
Answer the Call. Save Imagination.
-Jon002
Right. I use zlib to compress the pages you’re looking at, for the same reason.
Wait sorry, haven’t been around for awhile… What is this for?
If you want to change the chardata packet (such as the name, inventory, etc), you must edit the world_2a.bin packet. However, the data in that packet is normally compressed via zlib compression, so this script decompresses it.
Answer the Call. Save Imagination.
-Jon002
This mean we now can change inventory/name manually?
There always were ways to tweak it manually. Most likely just a different way now? If I understand Jon correctly.
I’m talking about ingame, not in character selection. This would allow you to change what the character is wearing ingame as well as what his name is, etc (just make sure the length of the data is correct – if you have to add/delete a byte in any variable wstrings or xmlData, remember to modify the length specifier. Otherwise the game crashes)
Answer the Call. Save Imagination.
-Jon002
Yay! That’s really cool! Maybe could someone write a script for it, just like the EasyWorldChanger.
The .py script isn’t working for me. I input a file and out comes a completely empty .bin file. The command prompt doesn’t say anything is going wrong either.
Out of curiosity, is python 2.7 or 3.4 recommended?
Either way, I tried it with both versions, making sure the proper PATH was set and all that jazz.
————————
Here is an example of all that is says:
This is the command I enter:
python ZLIBDec.py “C:\Users\Xiron\Desktop\LUNI Server Release\world\gruntmonkey\char_aw2.bin”
And this is the output:
ZLIBDec.py
(655, 0)
C:\Users\Xiron\Desktop\LUNI Server Release\world\gruntmonkey\char_aw2.bin
(37, 0)
which outputs me with an empty “ZLIBDec.py-decompressed.bin” file in both the place of the bin and where the script is being run from.
————————
I also tried it on many other numerous .bin files (even world_2a.bin) all with the same result.
Ah! This is not for the char_aw2.bin file. It it for the world_2a.bin file (the really long one. It is compressed data).
Answer the Call. Save Imagination.
-Jon002
^And I also read the end :P. It should work…. It did for me. Try the world/world_2a.bin file (start a command prompt in the folder itself, so you don’t need a path name. Didn’t test it (it should be able to read the path) but that could be the problem). Also, I used python version 2.7.8 on a Mac running OS X 10.10.
Answer the Call. Save Imagination.

That, worked. Thanks!

Lol grammer fail
lol airplane lol…
rofl
I really need a better grammer.
Because of the fact that I am from South
Korea. I can’t be really good at english.
(But still most koreans knows how to speak english)
North Korea is a very bad place to live right now. I hear a lot of the buildings on the border are fake, to encourage you to join the north.
I know but everybody here is enjoying life
in S.Korea
People will never join north.
It’s because S.Korea has 14th greatest economy and 9th military.
(One day we will free north from dictator Kim Jeong Pig)
Jon, CDFalcon, anybody do you have he free to play or beta/alfa files. I lost mine when i switched my macs. The VM I use always messes up. Idk why but I always like to use the windows versions of games more than mac. 😛

No one but Darwin, Neal and probably Humanoid have the Alpha files and they aren’t releasing them. Someone else out there may have them but not in this active group of people.
Ok thanks but what about free to play?
Lego king
Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter
The free-to-play files are the same as the current files. You just need to mark the player as F2P in the character selection and the world packets (look in the packet docs for more on that).

For those who haven’t heard. Unknown if this game is multiplayer or not. From what I can tell appears to be an open building game that many people have been demanding for a while now.
Either it’s true or it’s fake. Choose one.
I would actually opt for true as I’m a minecraft fanatic.
BTW, there is a server called Luni-Craft where tjey are trying to make LU in Minecraft. However they sadly closed down in February this year because of nobody going on anymore and no funds.
*LegoUni-Craft
It’s true. Not a hoax or troll. And yeah I played a little on Lego-Unicraft.
Looks pretty cool.
I hope you can build an airplane

And wow I really want to be a pilot like your brother….
Be one?! Like in the future. My brother technically isn’t a Pilot. He started to fly when he was 9. 🙂

So, i’m pretty sure someone already released this… but the launcher I think it was that was the screen where you joined lego universe, and it was playing the video for the new ninjago realm, is that launcher available and how do I add it? Also, can you add the ninjago video that plays when you open it? For nostalgia’s sake 😛
I don’t think it has been done by anybody
since gameplay was main priority.
I don’t know if we will bring back the original launcher, but several people develop a launcher.
I Know how to Bring back the original launcher and mod it. 🙂 nobody asked me for help. Just saying. >:-)

Download a version with it and add it there.
Oh I already fixed it but what do you do to stop the infinite loading screen? Is that what 0.6.1 was supposed to fix?

Shouldn’t be happening. Did you import the db connect your server to it and do it all correctly? And what world is it set on loading?
I’ve just made up a LUNI Blog.
I’m not sure how frequently I can post, but I try to keep it alive.
Look at it here: luniblogger.blogspot.ch
……..
It’s starting to be…. BORING.
There are over 5 sites about LUNI.. No one is checking it..
Yup thats what I was thinking.
That’s why we created the Git! 🙂 It is being orginized to become the main place for LUNI Development.
^_^
Great Idea!
I will join it.
New, organized LUNI is better than this chat like forum.
The more the better 🙂
Mater can I have your launchpad version? I want to clean it up and give it to people because Im just very eager to start developing. 🙂

I think i worked out your age; Your brother is around 13, so that means your under 13 and im going to take a wild guess and say 11, Am i right? I took that guess because im assuming your real name is Griffon, I figured this since in the bon jovi singing video there was the older brother (Yours) and the younger brother (Most likely you) he looked about 2 years younger. Tell me if im right or wrong 🙂
nope he is older than me and I’m 13. Wow good guess. 😛
And i was trying to annoy him then at the bon jovi. a little after those videos were made came Lego Universe I played alfa beta and reggaelar LU at a very young age but mostly my brother played beta/alfa. and yes my real name is Griffin (pronounced any way)
I think you are the illuminati! Wait! when you look at the letters in your user name you can make it say “SI” there is also a “y”. is a form of X. when you put it together you get “SIX”!!!! But wait! the most repeated number is 13 in your comments. There is a 3 in 13. 3 6’s make 666. 😮 I also have more proof! when you multiply 13 x 11 x 13 y0u get a number. divide it by 3 because there are 3 numbers and you get 619.666667 there are 2 666’s in that number when you combine all of the 6’s!!!!!
ILLUMINATI CONFIRMED!!!!!!

Sorry, I can’t give it to you right now. If we can get the Git to become orginized, I’ll most likely upload it. But without order, not right now.
Aww ok. 🙁

Lol
What needs to be done to be ‘organized’? 😛
This:
https://github.com/jaller200/LUNIServerProject/issues/12#issue-78595958
Mind if I offer help? I’m good with organizational issues.
That is asking for like complete project renovation that isn’t happening.
HappyAngryCatfish, some of the list is a bit extreme in terms of a full project overhaul, but some items do make sense. For instance, tutorials for running servers could be useful, for instance a simple single tutorial for users who just want to test/play the game. Also the idea of creating a priorities list seems good, although I know that figuring out the item and character issues are much more important to the main contributors.
I’m not saying all of this is happening, but we can at least try and fix things that have gone amiss with LUNI. For example, there are like, 20 sites based on LUNI, what we’re trying to do, is make it so this Git will be the main hub for LUNI. I don’t honestly see what is wrong with that!
Sounds good to me but what would you say we need to do to get organized? I mean it seems fairly well organized the way it is.
Like rioforce said, we need more of a public outline, more docs, and docs complete noobs can understand. We need tutorials for development.
Have a place for the normal users to chat, and have a place for developers to work in peace.
Plus, right now, development is spread out all over the internet. What we’re trying to do is build an actual team again.
Github is working fine for development and casual talk can be here. And as for dev tutorials Knight is working on that.
I know that the tutorial on the main page is the one meant for new users, but it’s kind of confusing when there are separate tutorials on almost every page for old server versions, custom servers, and development versions. It’s just difficult to tell which ones to follow to just download and play the game.
Would there theoretically be any chance of python integration into the game or will python and c++ not work together well?
No. The server needs to be C++. Why? Because RakNet.
Hello everyone I just wanted to let you know I am writing paradoys ( Idk how to spell that ) of pop songs around lego universes time. The pop songs are cheesy but it’s nostalgia after a long day I can start the radio and know I can come back to lego universe. Anyways each one has elements of lego universe and I hope I can get some good lyrics in there too. The songs are from 2010-2011.
I know why you can’t compile the unstable build! Where us likemysql.lib file? without it you can’t compile.
[code]
3>LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file ‘libmysql.lib’
[/code]
Also a missing RakNet.lib in debug folder, Fixed the mysql lib not found problem, copy it from C:\xampp\mysql\lib\libmysql.lib to Drive\What\Ever\Path\It\Is\LUNI-Unstable-Dev\Source\Debug if you have the RakNet problem I am still finding a solution…
I have only a little experience with programming, but I’d like to help in any way I can. I’m amazed at how much this project has accomplished, it’s so great to see this game being brought back in some way after 3-ish years! If there’s any miscellaneous things that I can contribute to, please let me know!
Whoops, accidentally used autofill and it put my name in the comment. Is there any way to edit comments so I can have my lego/username ID Kopakanui98 put in instead?
Yep, there you go! If you know C++ or another language you could help right now. If not, there are other ways to contribute.
Tim, please check your email. I really need to chat with you about something.
Done & replied. (Added the credit too).
Just wondering, What is added in 0.6? Also, Is installing 0.6 the same as o.5? And what will be on the public server? Will you be able to see other players?, Will there be global chat on there too? Sorry for all the questions :P.
I won’t really tell you what “is added in 0.6”, but i’ll answer your other questions.
1. What will be on the public server?
– Nothing.
2. Will you be able to see other players?
-No.
3 Will there be global chat on there too?
-No.
Hope it helps!
Nothing added, just char creation.
(Only char creation is functional in 0.6)
You can create a char but you only can login and play as CheekyMonkey on it.
Quick update on me. I may give up c++ It’s taking a long long time and I cant find the free time to do it. However I have been looking for the old devs of lego universe to help us. I cant get any contact details and I have not found any of them. but I am still looking.
TimTech, why exactly did the whole Tim VS. Raffa thing happen? Neal tells me you claimed the server code as being yours when it wasn’t. (And this page seems to prove that: http://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/39608/lego%C2%AE-universe-authentication-server ) IF you had never gotten involved with LUNI, would none of this have ever happened? I very much trust Neal on this since he happens to be one of the original LUNI members, unlike you. I don’t approve of Raffa’s attempts to infect you computer. But not crediting Raffa and claiming the code as yours is just as unacceptable. It seems like nothing bad happened and Raffa was running the LUNI project smoothly until you came along.
Or is Neal just misunderstanding what actually happened? Please tell me as complete an account of what happened as you can, because I am very much confused as to who I can trust, if anyone at all.
I’d venture a few things, if Tim hadn’t done what he did:
1) The devs currently not in public would still be public
2) The new devs would not be around
3) LUNI would not be horribly splintered
4) Tim would not be looked on in a bad light
Honestly, from what I’ve seen, the blame is pretty much on everyone. Tim blatantly ignored what the original devs said, and as a result they got extremely mad, left (or in the case of Raffa started a ‘flame war’ of sorts), and LUNI was splintered.
Jon002 and myself especially really want all sides to just come together and work on the project, but thanks to what Tim did he practically lost all trust.
I’ll venture a few things that I think would have happened if I hadn’t done what I did:
1) These files in versions 0.4+ would be sitting quietly in a sourceforge repo.
2) Eventually, many others would make fake YouTube videos about the project, pairing the incomplete LUNIServer with full game footage.
3) The developers would eventually gain some popularity and be spammed by new users.
4) 90% of you would not be here.
Also, Neal joined after me, and became a leader mainly because raffa was pressured to step down from the position. (Not that I was doing anything for LUNI at the time).
yeah, the source would be on the repo but it would be continued to be worked on and in public.
And why in the world would they be spammed with new users if no one knew about the project unless they were in the position to be able to dev? That’s the whole reason they didn’t want you to advertise, as the project wasn’t ready for the public, and they didn’t want to deal with non-devs.
And no, most people would not be here, but at the same time, no one here has even contributed anything to the LUNI source yet.
Personally, if you had talked out the situation with the devs (that is, possibly coming to an agreement where you could head up a public area once the source could actually do anything, with a way for non-devs to not go to the dev area) as opposed to just completely ignoring their requests, then this whole thing might’ve actually worked, as opposed to splintering the project.
I don’t care about
Tim vs Raffa…
I hope anyone,
anyone will come up with full LU.
But it’s not soooo,
everybody needs to help so I am learning c++. Idk whats so important about the conflict.
(But still Tim, you did something very, very wrong…)
Importance of the conflict: Tim ignored what the original devs (aka, the ones who are the reason we have LUNI and we have the information we need to continue working on it) wanted, so they (except Jon) no longer have next to any trust of him, and have stopped working publicly.
LUNI will never succeed at the rate we’re going. And if LUNI does succeed, it’ll be done by the actual LUNI devs. Not us. We didn’t code it in the beginning, and they didn’t document it. The only dev that still helps out is Jon. And I praise him for still staying and helping us out learn how to use the source.
It was never about trust. The actual creators (humanoid24 and lcdr) realized that most of the people joining just wanted to play and did not really know anything about programming. So they are/were working on their own until they could get the server at a better place – i.e. so that people could partially play. I think there was even a post about people wanting to help them develop. I joined by proxy because I had all the available captures. It was a little difficult for me to converse with them because of the time differences since they are in Europe.
Unfortunately, the Replica Manager is much harder than anticipated so they released all of their findings so that others would not spend their time duplicating their efforts.
I think that the only person that had an issue with Tim’s actions was raffa.
Oh, they come from Europe?
Quite interesting.
1) And at least the original team would still be whole and working together.
2) And they aren’t doing it now? And how would anyone even know?
3) And how is that any different from what’s happening right now? And if the project was still in secret, how would anyone know??? The LUNI server is incomplete, and as Knightoffaith said, that was why they didn’t want to release it to the public!
4) I would rather not be here if it meant the original team had never broken up and the legal battle had ever happened. And doesn’t that contradict your 3rd statement? If the original developers got some popularity, I think that quite a few of us would have found out about the project.
And wait… Neal joined AFTER you??? Neal told me otherwise: “I was in the original dev team and was there from the beginning”. You can’t both be right?!?
If this is how it looks, I really don’t think ignoring what the original devs said was worth it. I would rather the project still be in secret and making lots of progress instead of what’s happening now.
*sigh*
This page was here since before LEGO Universe closed. I was in the sourceforge with everyone else once LUNI was founded.
I understand your position, but let me restate again what open-source means. Open-Source under the GPL means that any user can take your uploaded code (no matter who made it) and do whatever they want with it. I can present an example: Darwin originally created the design. Humanoid and LCDR created another design. Raffa took humanoid’s design and said it was his. Tim took raffa AND humanoid’s design as his. I took all three of their designs and called it my own. Other people are taking my design (along with the past three) and calling it theirs. THAT is open-source. Not pure, of course, because it is not uploaded to a central location, but open source means ANYONE can do WHATEVER they want with the code. If raffa has wished for credit, he shouldn’t have used sourceforge.
As for Neal, I’m actually not fully sure why he is angry still. I guess it goes back to the fact that humans can tend to hold grudges…. and given the fact that Tim and Nealy don’t know each other in real life…. But my hope is that in the future, no matter how long it takes, things will be resolved.
Answer the Call. Save Imagination.
-Jon002
I hope darwin will change his mind and realeses his server.
But for now why don’t we stop this endless debate and
start making progress?
Agreed.
Agreed.
Lots of drama I see. First off people exaggerate this “we are in utter chaos and never going to finish” stuff. This has been going on since Tim uploaded the client. Jon is the core of the the LUNI group (this group) without him progress would fall drastically yes. I’m not much of a coder I know some C++ basics and am learning more. I like to mess around with the server and ask people like Jon and Knight questions to expand my knowledge on this subject so I can one day help. All this ‘drama’ is self created inside our heads in my opinion. If your interested in helping out head over to the github. We need to settle down and work on it.
So, Whats so special with the public server? What will it add? Whats new about it?
1. People will not have to host a server on their computer.
2. Mac users will be able to play.
3. Nothing new is added just hy hosting a public server.
how far have you been with LEGO Universe ?
World exploration and char creation, but in a primitive state. Why don’t you discover for yourself?
Hey everyone
This is one of the reasons why Lego Universe failed: http://games.on.net/2015/06/lego-universe-dong-detection/
So Lego wasted their money on blocking weiners?
Interesting to see a developer actually state what most of us already knew. The moderation “to protect the kids” was way overboard. You could not type any number in chat except “one.” The funny thing about it was that most of the people playing knew ways around the chat filters – too, tree, fur, hive, etc. Heck, it wouldn’t even let me type my name “Shasta Fantastic” because of “Shasta” which made me wonder why they allowed it in the first place 🙂
That is why we will never see LEGO make a game like LEGO Universe ever again.
Wouldn’t for work better than fur?
The new lego-minecrafty
game is out now on steam
It’s called LEGO Worlds! 🙂
http://store.steampowered.com/app/332310/
It doesn’t seems like a survival game.
But it has AIRPLANES!!!
Its not lego universe.
I wont play it.
I know I know,
It’s not LU…
But while we wait for LU why don’t we play this?
No.
http://prntscr.com/7bwehb
http://prntscr.com/7bwem2
http://prntscr.com/7bwf8z
I just got this. Yes, if it had multiplayer it would be as good as LU
There will be Multiplayer.
This is better than Lego Universe properties ever were. I WILL BUY IT.
Are we going to see a public server soon and please for lords sake include the maelstrom please we want to kill something!
They really can’t do that.
That thing need RM (Replica Manager), that no one figured out how it’s working yet.
As you can see on GitHub they figured out something/how it is working (paritally).
How much do you need to make a server? Plus are you working on maelstrom yet?!?
In the moment, we are working on the RM (Replica Manager) with let us spawn enemies and NPC’s.
It’s really easy to make a server (0.5.1):
1. Download nexus2 and LUNI Server 0.5.1 from the download page.
2. Un-zip them.
3. Start the server.
4. Start the client.
5. Log in with any username/password.
6. Enjoy!
1. “How much do you need”: I think what you speak about is Money for a public server. In theory, It’s allready enough Money for a (really slow) Server, but it don’t makes sense ecause we can’t use Replica Manager completely yet. So we can’t play together. That’s why a public Server isn’t useful. It will come after Replica manager is working more/better.
2. “are you working on maelstrom”: What do you want to say with this? If you’re speaking about Enemies, That’s allso a RM thing. It will come, but I don’t think that it will come out in really near future. So you have to wait.
in Hope that I helped you,

Take a look of what the devs of LEGO Worlds said:
WHAT THE DEVELOPERS HAVE TO SAY:
Why Early Access?
“LEGO Worlds will be a fully open-world, creativity-driven game so we want to ensure that we provide it with the utmost care and attention as we expand on our ideas. So much of this game will be about building and sharing and by sharing our plans with the community, we hope to incorporate their feedback and build an experience together that fans of LEGO and this genre of video games can enjoy.”
Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?
“The current plan for LEGO Worlds is to be in Early Access through 2015 at which point we hope to have our full list of features in place. We’ll evaluate a release candidate in early 2016, but we won’t consider the game complete and ready for release until we believe our community feels we have delivered a great game.”
How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?
“We plan to add the following features through a series of regular updates:
Like/Dislike system for tailoring World Generation
Procedurally Generated Underground Cave Networks
LEGO ID integration to allow for sharing and uploading of in-game builds
Additional Biomes
Painting Themes
Pre-Generated Towns/Villages/Settlements relevant to the Biome
Updated AI Behaviors to provide organic feeling to free-roaming creatures and characters
Red Brick Extras
Full liquid behaviors
Additional Minifigure Characters and Creatures
Additional Vehicles and Pre-Built Models
Additional Weapons
Cut/Copy/Paste chunks of landscape
Underwater Gameplay (including Vehicles, Creatures and additional sea life)
Character Customizer
Online Multiplayer”
What is the current state of the Early Access version?
“The Early Access build currently features:
Procedurally Generated Worlds
Terrforming and Building tools
Discoveries and Unlocks
Rideable Creatures and Vehicles
Day/Night Cycle”
Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?
“Yes, the game will be available at a reduced price during Early Access”
How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?
“We’ll be actively monitoring the Community Hub here on STEAM and look forward to feedback and suggestions for the game. We’ll also be offering people a chance to experience the Development of a LEGO title for the first time, and several members of the team will be providing some interesting dev diaries over the coming months.”
Nice!

Btw this game is VERY fun… Not to much content, but blowing things up with dragons is epic… Here is a great review:

I bought it and all of the sudden the W A S D doesn’t work. But it worth 15$ 🙂
xD why does it take 12 hours to download nexus2?
It’s the full game client.
Lego worlds is………. No.
Only you think like that.
So you should say “Lego World
is no for me”
You is………. No

Lol I personally think LW is awesome!
And that means…?
That means LW is no. XD
Sadly, I cant swear 😛
I’d consider not-swearing a benefit. 😛
