[string "FindMe"]:23143: bad argument #1 to 'returnPos' (vector expected, got nil)
Posted 05 October 2014 - 06:51 PM
I made this 3x3x3 hollow chamber made of only monitors to create a simulation box. I need your help to figure out what am I going to do with this box. Maybe increase the size to 5x5x5 and use CCsensors to detect your position, and have a command block connected to teleport you to the middle every time you move, so I could make an rpg type game. Anyway, there is a screenshot below, and you can post your ideas in the comment section. Thanks in advance

It'd be kinda cool to mix this with that Google Glass peripheral. I forget what it's called though :/

OpenPeripheral Addons!
I could totally do that!
have scare scenes and stuff!
OOH
MAYBE A DUNGEON CRAWLER!

maybe you could use the "spider tracking" method and replace the bottom monitors with pressure plates in order to track the players movement.

If you try to do anything 3D-ish, make sure you set the text scale to the lowest possible value for maximum awesomeness!

I like the idea of a dungeon crawler! :D/>
Also follow oeed's suggestion, use the lowest text scale so you can get the best graphics possible

i used 0.5 text scale and 5 monitors per side
its around 1500 pixels estimated

I have OpenCCsensors for that!
MORE BRAINSTORMING :
Maybe I could make a 3D Simulation API?
And mouse tracking with a sensor
and a virtual virtual synthetic lighting system :D/>

I like the idea of a 3D Simulation API. You could make games like Minecraft xD
Or you could replicate those Motion Gaming Rigs from The Sims 4 and put a 3D BlicBlock in there xD

Idk but when anyone could program you some peripherals: he could program you a pressure monitor so you can get the input with bundled cables in your computer to detect where the player is and then tp him back!

Dude, this is an awesome idea. If you write a framework, i'll definitely give a shot at making something with it.

The only problem is it wouldntbe practical because it wouldnt be able to detect the right sides each time

I may be wrong but I think you can track mouse movement and direction facing with OpenCCSensors

You can but this wouldnt work on a full 3d simulated game
Because in a 3D game you can look all directions.
Think of standing in a simulated allyway.

Didn't think about it like that, that's unfortunate.

I just thought of something.
If I was to use ccLights2, I could both detect the sides and have a whopping 2560x1440 pixels per side, along with every color available and full mouse detection. I have so much pixels that I could basically create anything I choose. So I could make a game that recreates minecraft fully, in lua, in computercraft, in minecraft that uses java. Mind Blown.

It would be difficult because I would need good knowledge of math, and being 7th grade, I don't know alot methods of algebra like cosine and sine. Not even mentioning algrebraic geometry

Here's a basic concept of 3D rendering.

I hate to necro, but I have made a little code snippet that can help with finding the orientation of the player.
http://pastebin.com/PqhnT71uIt works by displaying boxes that you match to the correct sides.

With these new characters in the beta and max resolution monitors you could execute this even better. So many opportunities!

Somewhere in this dimension... I think.

You mentioned you didn't know much about math… so if you still don't have a renderer done you can try the
Surface API

I have an idea for this. With the new 3D game engine I am working on, I can have 5 cameras (front, back, right, left, up) that render the same world from different angles.
PS: This is not an empty project, I have already started it.

If you do it in CC 1.76 you should use the blittle api

heres the thing, the sensor from openperipherals can get ANY data about a player, even rotation and coordinates! (relative to computer) so, with that, use the box like that! or, use the terminal glasses with it to make a hololens

Oh! I thought they removed it. I probably used the OpenCCSensors "Sensor" block instead of the OpenPeripherals "Sensor" block. With OpenPeripheral Addons you could add HUD. Maybe, using the rotation detection and terminal glasses, you could create a hololens-type screen effect that displays an image on a certain block, or create effects to simulate a block even. It would be fun having 3D objects flying inside the box. Maybe we can assemble a team to work on this?
