    Lol, I was just play Lego Worlds, and I found one of the abandoned towers. It had a large chest in it. In Lego Worlds, there are 2 types of chests: 1: Tiny money chests, and 2: Large item chests….
    Towers have large item chests. I had found one earlier, and it had given me an ice cream cone… Mah. This one however, gave me a freaking homing bazooka… YES!. Best troll weapon on earth. Not only does it home, it auto targets(unlike bows) and has shrapnel! I will record a video of it, bc it is amazingly fun to watch skeletons fly about 50 yards out.

    My LU won’t let me log into the character selection..
    Help please c;

    I don’t think you guys realize the potential Lego Worlds has. The game is made to be mod compatible, meaning we could add custom models (Factional Armor,weapons etc) and because the game revolves around building we could re-build sections of LU. And as pointed out by the developers they’re looking to put in multiplayer.

    • HappyAngryCatfish June 3, 2015 @ 3:35 AM

      Mods aren’t supported. Yes it is moddable but that breaches the EULA.

      • Austin4606 June 3, 2015 @ 4:13 AM

        I don’t think i understand what you mean. The game has a mods folder and you can import LEGO models ATM. What do you mean mods aren’t supported?

        • caboose1543 June 3, 2015 @ 1:47 PM

          not all of the LDD bricks are in the database of LW so mods aren’t very compatible right now. of course you can also mod textures and gameplay. I turned gravity down to 0.1 it’s so fun :P)

    • Mister Piano June 3, 2015 @ 4:37 AM

      If we really could mod the game, it has a great potential.
      With help of LUNI Server 0.5.1 and the videos of jammesterV2 we could rebuild LU. This would be really nice, because all people could help.

      • airplane1717 June 3, 2015 @ 9:37 AM

        Won’t it get the support from
        Nexus2 client but not the server?

      • bluebrainc June 4, 2015 @ 7:43 AM

        Don’t do that, Mister Piano. That would be the end of LUNIserver. And Lego Worlds Universe would never be 100%ly like Lego Universe

        • Mister Piano June 4, 2015 @ 11:54 AM

          I mean, people who want to help, but don’t like to learn developing can have a sidekick-project. This way we have LUNI and LWU.

    • CDFalcon June 3, 2015 @ 9:40 AM

      No, I think mods are compatible. Bc part of this game is dedicated to uploading other people’s creations…

      • HappyAngryCatfish June 3, 2015 @ 10:40 AM

        LDD importing is supported. Outside of that a mod stated on steam that it breaches the EULA to do anything outside of the LDD models.

        • HappyAngryCatfish June 3, 2015 @ 10:42 AM

          Thus being said they don’t really seem to mind if we mod it they just don’t support us.

    • Jon002 June 3, 2015 @ 1:14 PM

      If LEGO wants to truly battle Minecraft there are two features they MUST have: Multiplayer and Modding. Without BOTH of these, Minecraft will remain dominant. Sure, LW will be great, especially as multiplayer is coming, but, after LEGO Universe, LEGO really needs to understand how to run this game by adding the ability to mod. Modding is one of the best parts of Minecraft 🙂

      Answer the Call. Save Imagination.

      • Rc1140 June 3, 2015 @ 1:45 PM

        Multiplayer is coming in a future update. The game is maybe going onto steam workshop, then there will be mods.

        • Austin4606 June 3, 2015 @ 8:51 PM

          Just a thing to note, it hasn’t been confirmed that other than LDD there’s going to be a Steam Workshop.

  4. CDFalcon June 3, 2015 @ 9:45 AM

    Okay, I found some interesting things in LW… It seems to be using assets from other games…
    1: If you hold F, you get the targeting curser from Lego Star Wars 3…
    2: Movement is a mix of LU and Lego Avengers.
    3: This game was 300% sure made with Unity 3D.
    4: Buildings is like LU, with Unity 3D vectors.
    5: Bows fire the same from Lord of the Rings.
    6: Editing the land uses the EXACT same tools as Unity Terrain Editor….
    7: Most biomes are from Minecraft: Mushroom lands, Spruce froest, Jungle, Desert…. Ect.

  5. Lego king June 3, 2015 @ 11:21 AM

    Uummm guys. Im back from a few days. 🙂
    So I have two questions:
    1. When i open up luni 0.6.1 server I cant play not even as cheeky monkey after I selected my new guy. Is this supposed to happen because all I get is the infinite loading screen.

    2. Lego worlds its 15 bucks now on steam. Is that low priced for steam games because I want it?

    • caboose1543 June 3, 2015 @ 1:39 PM

      1. It doesn’t work if you put the database file from 0.6 into 0.6.1 so just download the 0.6.1 source version as it has all required files.

      2. Buy it now, it’s worth it. The price will only rise

      • Lego king June 3, 2015 @ 2:13 PM

        1. THANKS SO MUCH!

          We should have a TTS server in LW once multiplayer is released

          • Lego king June 3, 2015 @ 11:14 PM

            Thanks!
            Um this may seem stupid but what is a TTS server?

          • airplane1717 June 4, 2015 @ 4:05 AM

            What about a LU mod in LW?
            (TTS means timtech software)
            And why tts when there could be a LUNI server on LW?

          • Timtech June 4, 2015 @ 6:30 PM

            Great idea, we will see. And PS for those, a “secret”, that a public LU server (0.6.1) is soon to be available.

  6. caboose1543 June 3, 2015 @ 1:43 PM

    I’ve tried importing many models from LU. the modular castle models work. Sadly the pod models don’t work yet as they include models not yet in the LW database

    • Austin4606 June 3, 2015 @ 8:53 PM

      Thankfully it’s already been confirmed that more LEGO bricks are going to be added soon.

      • Lego king June 3, 2015 @ 11:16 PM

    Suggestion: Maybe import textures, desings, structures, etc. from that new game Lego Worlds?

  8. Lego king June 4, 2015 @ 8:43 AM

    Tim you need a new page for lego worlds. I think this page is for LUNI.

    Lego king
    Sentinel Veteran and 10,000th commenter

    • Rabbit21 June 4, 2015 @ 9:11 AM

      Yeah. That’s LUNI page not LW.
      Everyone here ask for LW mods, how to import textures, models, etc.
      I think that should be on LW page. I hope that Tim will make a page for LW.

  9. CDFalcon June 4, 2015 @ 9:20 AM

    Hey guys, I am going to start a VERY small, low key project for Lego Worlds… Exploring the code, examining mod possibilities… I would like a experienced team of 5 at most, and, if my theory is right, you must be able to work with Unity…
    Anyone interested? I will be making a page for development on my website(not my wiki…)

    • CDFalcon June 4, 2015 @ 10:08 AM

      Oh yes, btw, do not try to force open the GAME data file. Lol, it was so big it nearly crashed my computer…

      • Lego king June 4, 2015 @ 11:28 AM

        Bu-But But what about you working on changing characters armor. I think if we combine your way of changing armor to 0.6.1 and mater’s launchpad to 0.6.1 and put it together we can be close to DLU. Then again i may just be pointing out the obvious. 😛

    Hey all, just a quick announcement:

    I’ve set up two Freenode channels, #luni-server for general LUNI discussion, and #luni-server-dev for discussion of LUNI software development. I know Tim had his #lu channel, but we should really stay branded as LUNI, and Raffa’s channel has expired to my knowledge.

    Hope to see you all there. 🙂

      • Timtech June 4, 2015 @ 8:07 PM

        Not in some areas. It will detect and block your area automatically if there is a legal problem. And also, it won’t update, unlike those who have actually supported the developers by buying it on Steam, which I know is a lot of you.

        • mater06 June 4, 2015 @ 9:58 PM

          I’m sorry Tim, but according to US laws, (which I expect you live here in the US,) this not be redistributed without previous consent from the owners of the copyrighted material. I’m sorry, but that’s illegal.

      • Rabbit21 June 5, 2015 @ 5:52 AM

        I am 100% that is.

    • Knightoffaith June 5, 2015 @ 2:50 PM

      Tim, forget it. This is piracy, as Mater has said. I’ve been rather neutral to you, but come on, really? All you’re doing is showing everyone that the original devs were right in classifying you as a fraud.

  14. Lego king June 4, 2015 @ 7:18 PM

      LEGO Loco was a childhood favorite of mine. I’ve also played LEGO Racers 1 & 2, and my friend has LEGO Island 2 and LEGO Creator.

      • Lego king June 5, 2015 @ 2:19 AM

        I never grew up with this games but right now i am going through imaginary time machine and playing lego racers, lego island, lego island 2, lego land, and lego creator. I got these games both in a 4 pack in a school book order. lego island lego island 2, lego racers, and lego racers 2 were in one. lego creator, lego land, galidor, and drome racers were in one. I never plan to play Drome racers and Galidor. I lost the disk to lego racers 2. 🙁
        These packs never came with lego Loco. Once I looked it up a few weeks ago I was AMAZED it looked like a lego sim city but more awesome

    http://luni-wiki.wikispaces.com/Packet+Documentation
    http://timtechsoftware.com/?page_id=1932

    if we combine all of these things together like I said above we can be close like DLU. (I know there meant for different server versions but Cmon you help bring LU back and contribute but can’t do this. You can do it)This is my motivational speech i just can code C++ yet so I advertise and motivate you guys.

      Hey!
      No one said that we need to stop, and work on LW o,o
      Everyone said that LW is not LU (And that’s right ). LEGO Worlds and LEGO Universe are difrerent games, so mods won’t change anything.
      Also, i wanna bring back LU too! I started learning c++, idk.. maybe 3 weeks ago.
      So i hope, that in near future, i’ll be helpful in LU project 😉

  25. Knightoffaith June 5, 2015 @ 3:23 PM

    Tim, I’ve really had enough of this. You apparently do have a nice strong tie to this lendgames thing: http://lendgames.com/author/webman3/

    I’ve constantly heard you being called a pirate and someone who just rehosts others’ content. I’ve distanced myself from the claims, as I haven’t really seen much proof. Now I have. I’m not sure if you just don’t understand the law and common courtesy, or if you really are just that greedy, but really, get your act together.

    At this point, it seems that the only reason you have gained credibility is because you are the only public place to look. I’m starting to loose trust, and I’m not really seeing much to prove me otherwise. Beyond being a host and contributing a few typo fixes, I’m not really seeing much to help your case. I for one don’t want to have someone who makes up their own rules running a project like this which is already borderline legal, if your email from TLG can even be trusted (which I personally could believe, as I may have caused it to surface :P).

    Long story short, prove that those who are against you are wrong, don’t just back them up. Or, keep doing what you’re doing and loose your backing. Your choice.

    • Timtech June 5, 2015 @ 7:13 PM

      I understand this is a gray area, but I can confirm that “technotim” is the name I use for game-related stuff. It is also true that I rehost others’ content. I understand the law surrounding the subject, and believe that GPL v3 gave me the right to copy the LUNI project.

      It’s also true that my public presence is the source of my credibility. I understand that I’m not really developing the LUNIServer, and it’s true that I’m not the best with C++. I understand that this project is borderline legal, but I can assure you that the e-mail from the LEGO Group was legitimate.

      However, my role as a host and web admin are keeping me tied in to this project. Thanks for asking 🙂

      • Knightoffaith June 5, 2015 @ 7:20 PM

        I know LUNI is perfectly legal. What I’m concerned about right now is the piracy of many pieces of software on lendgames. While this is not directly LUNI, it certainly makes you look like a serial pirate and someone who firthers themself by primarily rehosting others’ content without doing much actual work.

      • HappyAngryCatfish June 5, 2015 @ 9:46 PM

        So your basically telling us you don’t give a dang about respects or any sort of morals. Whatever you can get away with you do? I’m done.

      • SuperGeniusCreator June 6, 2015 @ 12:15 AM

        “Gray area”!?! This is no longer gray area… THIS IS DOWNRIGHT ILLEGAL. I will not support this. And whatever legal rights you have concerning LUNI have absolutely nothing to do with the legality of what you are doing concerning Lego Worlds. I don’t know why you decided to pirate that game, but if you think you’re doing it for the greater good or something, you’re wrong. You can’t get good things done by doing bad things. And ignoring the original LUNI devs also happens to be something you did seemingly for the “greater good for the community”, but look where we are now. Good things come only from things that are good, and software theft is definitely not good. Don’t you have any morals? This is the end of me ever supporting this project as long as you run it.

    Tim you are a trouble maker since you came here on LUNI. You stole everything here and made advertizement money. You got donations for public server but you swallowed it.
    I personally think raffa was right.
    You are a pirate.
    I believe many people will agree.
    And some people won’t agree.

      • sonicbrandyn June 6, 2015 @ 6:33 AM

        Just a few days ago you were on timtechs side, What happened?

        • SuperGeniusCreator June 6, 2015 @ 7:58 AM

          Tim decided to pirate Lego Worlds, as well as several other games. See here: http://lendgames.com/lego-worlds/ And not only that, he’s doing it under the guise of charity: “Donate to or download games for charity”. That’s what happened. Pirating is ILLEGAL and wrong. Tim has just shown that he has no morals, at least when it comes to stealing. Now there are several reasons to not support Tim:

          1) He claimed the LUNI sever code as his, before several people corrected him. (See here: http://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/39608/lego%C2%AE-universe-authentication-server ) He also made the server software known to the public when he started hosting his server here, and he ignored what the original LUNI devs had told him by doing this.
          2) Tim told me that “Neal joined after me, and became a leader mainly because raffa was pressured to step down from the position.” That is a lie, because Neal was one of the original members of LUNI.
          3) Tim has now shown that he is willing to pirate software, showing how low his morals are.

          Because of what Tim has just done, everything he has done seems a lot more suspect now, and we have no reason to trust him anymore. That is why several are moving the project over to GitHub, away from Tim.

    I think, there are many people who will left and go to GitHub. (mostly Devs)
    Other people will stay here.
    This mean, project is breaking down.
    Maybe Timtech will engage new developers, but this page won’t be the community.
    Why don’t delete this page? (Or turn off comments)
    We should switch to legouniver.se. There is a good forum.
    Developers working on GitHub, and everyone is happy. (Maybe even raffa50, because no TimTech page).

    • airplane1717 June 6, 2015 @ 6:04 AM

      Legouniver.se is not a good forum.
      If you want to stay here and keep giving Timtech his ad money, do that.
      But most of the people will leave this site and go to git.

      • Mister Piano June 6, 2015 @ 10:36 AM

        Including me.
        But we should have a forum for non-devs, so they can ask questions.
        We could host luniver.se or some domain, then open a forum and start fresh.

        • Knightoffaith June 6, 2015 @ 12:04 PM

          There has been some good discussion on moving back to the SourceForge page (keeping details on that wuiet atm) but they do have hosting, so we’d probably have a WordPress site with a phpbb forum on it.

  33. Jonny June 6, 2015 @ 7:02 AM

    I was like Knightoffaith – neutral.
    But I talked to Raffa and saw your pirating of LEGO Worlds…

    Tim, I’ll stop posting on your site and I’ll use my own client as of now.
    Also I have set all my YouTube videos to private because I don’t want to support your site anymore.

    I won’t report you so I won’t bring you in trouble but I want nothing more to do with you…

    I’ll move to GitHub.
    Bye.
    – Jonny

    In response to people saying that the Git will only be for devs, I’d like to say that many people including me are trying to make the git a better place for everyone.

    I encourage anyone here to join the GitHub @ http://github.com/jaller 200/LUNIServerProject

    Even if you cannot code, I encourage you to help out with the wiki, or you can do some work in the readme

    Also, with your help, unification may finally happen between devs, which would mean faster progress over all…

    And this is directed to Tim:

    Don’t think taking these sites down will cure your reputation, it will most likely weaken it even more.

    Regards
    ~mater06

    Edit by Timtech: my total revenue from LU ad money is $25.86, so stop spreading rumors.

    Okay TimTech, in order for you to get where I am coming form, you will need some backstory.
    When I came here, you were just about my favorite person on earth. I mean, here was a guy who could BRING BACK LU!!!
    I loved this project, so I started getting more involved. The more experienced I became, the more, how shall I put this, “smarter” people I met, like pwjones and jon002. I started my own wiki and gained even more respect. I then started surfing the web, looking for anything that could help my developing. I came across SEVERAL website worth evaluators. They all said the same thing.
    Tim, you are gaining THOUSANDS of dollars worth of add money from all of the traffic that comes here. Now, I know that LUNI is definitely 100% open source, but it is also NON PROFIT. I have been waiting a long time to post this, but it wasn’t until you posted a PIRATED copy of LW, I meet Darwin, and everyone started seeing from my point of view. Because you see Tim, the way you keep (sorry about this certain people) the newbies under your control is that you only let them see YOUR point of view. When I first meet Darwin and Neal, the first thing I asked them was: Is TimTech the “goodguy”?. Almost everyone I meet that WAS NOT on this site said no.

    There are only 2 things you can do that will keep me (and most likely everyone else who knows the truth) from leaving. The first you must do IMMEDIATELY: You must remove LU from LendGames. The second is that you need to remove ALL ADDS on the LU pages. You can keep them ANYWHERE else on your site, but it is not exactly “non profit” if you are making 8,320 USD from it… That is all. If you can put against a solid argument against me I will take this back.

    //NOTE: If Tim closes these pages or his site( Which I HIGLY doubt he will) regroup on luhub.com… I still have admin privileges there, so I can help.

    • Knightoffaith June 6, 2015 @ 1:55 PM

      Also, Tim, with your lendgames site (and yes, I can say confidently it is yours), you are painting yourself as a pirate. What this is showing us is that your motives are simply to take advantage of others’ content for your own game, without adding additional value, and even adding additional difficulty/injury to the original creators. I don’t see why you should be in charge of a project like this if that’s your goal and aren’t even contributing. With SourceForge hosting, everything can be handled by the devs. If you actually show good contribution to the project, then great. If you make significant contributions, you might be given responsibility. Heck, there’s nothing that can be done to prevent you from rehosting content here, as long as you follow the license (Raffa has agreed AGPL would be appropriate). However, it makes no sense for you to have control over the project.

      I do hope you’ll change from what I’m seeing Tim, and perhaps actually become a good contributor. I believe you made a good contribution to force this project to be more open. But at this point, we need to be set up in a way that makes sense. Jon in the lead, the devs working and keeping the public informed, and getting on the path to become unified again. The drama has been going on too long, and we need to show we are capable of being a coherent organization.

      • Timtech June 6, 2015 @ 2:50 PM

        I don’t see how I can make this project make any more sense. But I will try 🙂

        • Knightoffaith June 6, 2015 @ 3:42 PM

          I mean it makes no sense for you to be running this. You’re not contributing anything to this aside from hosting, which can all be handled through SourceForge. The issues we had was with how Raffa was running things and the isolation of the devs, both of which will no longer be the case.

          • Timtech June 6, 2015 @ 6:02 PM

            Jon is running the project 😉 this is just my site for LUNI. I mean, we have luhub.com, legouniver.se, luni.info, luniserver.sf.net, the github, and this site.

          • knightoffaith June 6, 2015 @ 6:28 PM

            I’m saying, this and legouniver.se are the main places for LUNI atm as far as the public is concerned (for devs it is the GitHub). It makes no sense for you to be running the public interface to the project, the devs actively involved should be doing that.

          • Timtech June 6, 2015 @ 8:11 PM

            We have no devs, except Jon and you.

          • Knightoffaith June 6, 2015 @ 8:25 PM

            Eeeeeh, not quite. There are a few people who are now starting to work on development, as can be seen by the 12 forks, not including yourself.

            Plus, if LCDR, Humanoid, or Pwjones decide to head back, they also have a lot to play in this.

            At any rate, you are not really developing while others are (namely Jon and myself are public about it right now), and I do feel that it would make more sense for someone directly involved in the project to be in control of the main site.

  36. Ben June 6, 2015 @ 10:47 AM

    i get this when trying to run the server:
    “THe application was unable to start correctlly (0xc000007b). click ok to close the application.” i have already tried running as admin. any help?

  37. ElijahTheAwesome June 6, 2015 @ 11:03 AM

    How do i use my server. i opened the luni server file and it started but lu still doesent let me play

  38. Austin4606 June 6, 2015 @ 1:46 PM

    Wait.. so i decide to leave for a few days and i see people completely turning against Tim when all he’s really doing is hosting a bloody website. Seriously people, this is retarded. Yes he pirated but that’s incredibly common, stop acting like he just committed a sin against life, it’s childish. All we wish to do is bring back LU, correct? Be glad Tim has this enormous comment section for everyone to share. I think y’all forget where you’re even complaining. This is HIS website, he could easily take down this page and essentially any thread of a community that still exist.

    So, again, get your heads out of your butts and please start cooperating like we should be doing. Complaining and staring down on Tim isn’t going to make anything move any quicker, if not make it go slower.

    • Timtech June 6, 2015 @ 2:54 PM

      This site is basically why I’m “in charge”; I never actually led the project in development.

    • HappyAngryCatfish June 6, 2015 @ 2:59 PM

      This “site” is a freaking mess. And that’s why we don’t make any progress. Its time to actually do something.

      • Timtech June 6, 2015 @ 3:03 PM

        What can we do? We are not developing, whether you think this place is a mess or not. We could always make a nice, neat, no-comments page, but that would be no fun 😉

        • Knightoffaith June 6, 2015 @ 3:41 PM

          As I’ve been saying. I think it would just make sense to give control to the devs as far as a site goes. We’ll probably be moving to SF and creating our own site, so if you still want to be involved then head there and help out.

          If you want to keep hosting here, you’ll need to follow AGPL for future versions (however it’s decided to be used), and I do ask that on your front page you state that you are simply rehosting, and state that the project is based at the URL we will have for the SF hosted site. I imagine that will at least be primarily sufficient to keep people off your case.

    • Knightoffaith June 6, 2015 @ 3:04 PM

      This is an issue of motives. There’s been numerous accusations he’s doing this primarily for his own gain, we’re given some proof, and that’s not the right person to be heading up the face of the community. The actual work on LUNI is on GitHub and SourceForge. There isn’t TOO much that couldn’t be salvaged.

      And aside from that, it’s time that this project started getting on its feet without all the complication. One home maintained my the people who are the most involved in the project simply makes sense.

      • HappyAngryCatfish June 6, 2015 @ 5:13 PM

        Pirating happens all the time so that justifies doing it. Lol. Tim does more than use it he hosts and donates the pirated stuff. This isn’t the person I want leading the project. There is much truth to be found in the original devs accusations.

    • SuperGeniusCreator June 6, 2015 @ 3:22 PM

      Pirating happens all the time, but that doesn’t make it okay. A lot of crimes happen all the time, but just because tons of people do it doesn’t mean it isn’t horribly wrong. A lot of us aren’t going to compromise what we believe is right by supporting someone who steals.

      And he can go ahead and shut down the website. The community will just move over to GitHub and continue progress there.

      You can’t just ignore the fact that someone is committing a crime. I would rather see LUNI die than see the devs have to work on the site of a software thief. Standing up for what you believe to be right is ALWAYS more important than something like bringing back a game.

  39. guy1853 June 6, 2015 @ 2:30 PM

    Because everyone is leaving the website, should I put the client on the GitHub?

  40. CDFalcon June 6, 2015 @ 4:43 PM

    Hey, Tim, in response to your “25” dollar claim, how do you respond to this?

  41. Maelstrom1001 June 6, 2015 @ 4:46 PM

    Alright I have an issue. I try to download the nexus2 client file, but the zip only downloads halfway and I can’t interact with the materials in the zip. I’ve downloaded it using Chrome and Explorer, but the outcome is the same. Is there any way I can download the zip 100%?

  42. G7OK June 6, 2015 @ 4:59 PM

    timtech is it possible to play lan with friends or any way at all? I really wanna jump around a explore with my friend in the world is THAT POSSIBLE YET?
    sorry kinda mad i posted a bunch of comments and u didnt reply
    and btw dont let others bother u about pirating a beta lol who cares it isnt even out technically

    • Timtech June 6, 2015 @ 5:56 PM

      1. Yes, but you won’t be able to see each other. In the latest versions, chat might work between you, though.
      2. It’s fine, sorry I missed those comments 😉
      3. Thanks!

  43. knightoffaith June 6, 2015 @ 6:32 PM

    Tim. When people are talking about you pirating software, it’s NOT LUNI being talked about. It’s lendgames.com, which hosts a number of games that are not open source in any way shape or form, normally require payment, and you do not have rights to distribute. And you are the one running this.

  44. guy1853 June 6, 2015 @ 6:35 PM

    Hey everyone. I am currently compressing the client to .zip so I can put it on the GitHub. I am doing this so it can improve future development.

  45. mater06 June 6, 2015 @ 6:37 PM

    Tim, I’ve got a question for you concerning lendgames…

    Would you steal a purse?
    Would you steal a TV?
    Would you steal a piano?

    No! You wouldn’t steal! That’s illegal!

    How’s doing it online any different?

  46. guy1853 June 6, 2015 @ 6:53 PM

    Well, Im trying to add the client to the GitHub but it says that the commit failed.

    Why ain’t it adding?

    • guy1853 June 6, 2015 @ 6:55 PM

      Im thinking is probably a big file. Maybe its cause I compressed it to .zip, now Im gonna compress it to .7zip.

  47. guy1853 June 6, 2015 @ 7:34 PM

    I think Im gonna give up uploading the .7zip file. I am currently compressing it to .7zip, but it looks like its going past the GitHub file limit.

  48. Knightoffaith June 6, 2015 @ 9:40 PM

    First off Tim, I do apologize for all of this upheaval all of a sudden. However, you have irked a number of people in seeing your decent collection of pirated software, when there was already accusations floating around that you’re only doing this for your own benefit. I do think that the project will be better coming out of this than it was going in, but there are still concerns about what you have done/are doing.

    I do realize I think we’re making this a bit too big of a deal. I assume Tim will agree, that this is not and was never meant to be the home of the LUNI project. There should be no problem with the current devs creating one, as in no way is there really any conflict. Tim can continue doing what he’s doing, being a secondary outlet, so long as the primary location is obviously shown on the main page (once it’s set up), all license restrictions are followed, etc. As long as the license is complied with and it does not take due recognition away from the real project, there is no real problem with a rehost.

  49. Timmyh198 June 6, 2015 @ 9:41 PM

    Guys, we’re asking the wrong questions about Lendgame!

    Timtech, why do you think lendgame is legal? It has 100% copyrighted games! So, let me ask again, why is it legal?

    • Timtech June 7, 2015 @ 2:15 PM

      Chances are, if you live in Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Japan, Morocco, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea, or the United States, it’s not legal. But otherwise, it’s okay 😉

  50. airplane1717 June 6, 2015 @ 10:51 PM

    Hey Timtech we don’t need you.
    You have been getting money from a project you stole from the devs. So why should we writing comments here?
    Let’s get out of here and start making real progress without Tim but with Devs who will join if we get out of here.

    (NOTE TO TIMTECH FANS:
    Timtech stole LUNI
    And now we are taking it BACK!)

    • airplane1717 June 6, 2015 @ 10:52 PM

      I mean just right now we leave and never comeback!

    • pwjones1969 June 7, 2015 @ 9:16 AM

      No one is making you stay. You can leave any time you want.

      And how does one steal an open source project? While I don’t agree with his lendgames items, LUNI has always been open source.
