    KrisFirebolt reacted to Voxy in Welcome to the new Mine-imator Forums!   
    Hello everybody, hope you’re all doing well!
    Today, we’re very excited to announce that we're launching a big update for the Mine-imator Forums, with a beautiful new design, a revamped layout and a few extra features!
    In this post, we’ll cover all the changes we made, starting with...
     A snazzy new look
    Gone are the dark blues and grays of days past! With this update, we’re introducing a brand new design, based on an updated version of Inventory, the design system that powers the user interface of Modelbench, and soon, Mine-imator.

    Featuring a rich, bright color palette, updated typography and icons, and a wider, more spacious layout, this slick new theme will bring a much needed modern makeover for the forums. I really hope you’ll enjoy it!
     Join the dark side
    If you’re the kind of person who doesn’t like frying their retinas while browsing at night, don’t worry, we got you covered! The new theme comes with a built-in Dark Mode to make your reading experience a lot more comfortable when you need it.

    To enable it, simply click the moon icon on the top right of the page. The forums will automatically remember your choice, and you can disable it at any time, too!
     Note that for this feature to work properly, any existing color formatting had to be removed from posts. This was necessary to prevent text with dark colors applied to it from being impossible to read for Dark Mode users.
     News you can’t miss
    Unless you specifically follow the right forums, it can be easy to miss all the important new stuff we have to share with you. To help with that, we’re introducing Headlines, a new way of making announcements to the community.
    Headlines is a new feature on our homepage, allowing us to highlight any posts we want you to read, such as updates on the development of Mine-imator, important news regarding the forums, etc. This way, we can be sure you won’t have to worry about missing out on the latest juicy tidbits!
     A bit of spring cleaning
    As part of this update, we’re also changing the way the forums are organized, to remove unnecessary clutter, and hopefully, make them easier to navigate.
    The Mine-imator and Modelbench forums are now part of the same category, bringing them closer together, and making sure that you can find everything you need in one place.
    As for the Minecraft and Off-topic categories, they’ve been merged into the Lounge, the new home of all the stuff that isn’t about Mine-imator. What used to be a dozen subforums now neatly fit within 4 forums, Random talk, Other creations, Minecraft discussion, and Forum games.
    Let us know what you think about this new setup!
     And more!
    We’ve replaced the existing reactions with a new set of playful animations featuring our mascots Ashley and Jonathan, animated by @mbanders and myself. And for those moments where a mere upvote just doesn’t feel like it’s enough, we’re also adding a new “Love” reaction to the roster! Use it wisely!
    Moderators and members who have recently joined the forums will now display a badge next to their name in posts. User groups also have fancy icons next to their names! The number of won days and the number of questions you helped solve now display next to your posts, alongside your reputation points and your post count. The text editor has been updated with new icons and a few changes: Font and Size options were replaced with a Format option, letting you choose between three paragraph styles: Heading 1, Heading 2, and normal text. The text color option now uses the Inventory UI palette. While the selection is more limited, those new colors can automatically adapt for users that have Dark Mode enabled, ensuring high-contrast text no matter what background it’s being read against. The background color option also uses this new palette. It was tweaked to act like a highlighter tool, giving text a subtle background instead of a solid block of color. I’m very excited to start this new chapter of the Mine-imator Forums with all of you, and I hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I enjoyed working on it over the past few months. I’d also like to thank David, our trusty forum staff, and all our beta testers for helping me make this update possible.
    If you have any feedback or suggestions to make, be sure to leave a reply below! In the meantime, happy browsing, everyone! Take care. ✌

    I've been here for a while, this is accurate. If there were no limit, you could technically upvote all of the things you really like instead of having to conserve or bookmark topics to upvote later. However, there are lots of people here who would be eager to downvote almost anything in sessions over a grudge or because they got upset, and its dumb really. I agree with the value part as well, it does make every upvote feel a bit more special since anyone can only do so many per day. Perhaps in the long run it did do more good to help inspire users to create, rather than people feel like they're being held back from showing appreciation with a like button.
    Also a bit true since I'm pretty sure every upvote and reply to a post does create a notification, and seeing a constant flow of notifications from one user may seem distracting or off putting.

    DoctorMWM's Dalek Rigs
    These Rigs were inspired by an old rig back from 2015 by Allemn ( https://www.mineimatorforums.com/index.php?/profile/21936-allemn/ )
    The outdated, original rig can be found at
    Personally, i found it a bit annoying that the original rig featured so little movement for its parts, so I made it better in terms of looks and movement.
    This is the reason that I did a complete rework of the normal Dalek and made the Special Weapons Dalek myself.
    Since I spent much time and energy on these rigs, i must ask you to credit me in your official animations (e.g. on YouTube or something like that).
    Please, do not upload these rigs as your own work.
     
    Pictures:


     
    Features Dalek:
    + can be fully recolored
    + moving head, eye stalk and "arms"
    + Thruster and Eye emit light
    + "ears" can be  lit up (speech)
    Features Special Weapons Dalek:
    + can be fully recolored
    + moving head and cannon
    + Thruster emits light
    + the "head" can be  lit up (speech)
     
    once again: please credit me if you are using these rigs
    Thanks! Have fun exterminating!

    KrisFirebolt reacted to Dark Side in MINE-IMATOR IS MORE THAN MONSTER SCHOOL?   
    I agree with your criticism. I will improve on that in the future. Thank you ? 
    Once again, couldn't agree more, people have made amazing things in Mine-imator, had told stories that are amazing, extremely detailed models, very sophisticated rigs, the list could go on and on. And honestly, I am considering about making a video showcasing everything the Mine-imator community has offered in the future. People often look down upon this software, because of, you know what... This is an amazing software, and this is an amazing community of animators, modellers, riggers, and so much more.
    I haven't checked them out yet, i'm still new to this community, but thanks for mentioning them, I will check them out right now ?

    As someone who's just lurked for almost a year, tends to forget things or misremember, Mineimator does kind of seem like a lot of F N A F creations and lots of 'tests' that may or may not be only a battle scene. Maybe it is what people like to create because they believe its the coolest thing ever to animate a battle or some random broken robot. If you wanted to show some of the community creations, there's a lot of cool creations and models people have made that don't necessarily revolve around whatever is popular. There's that one thread with all of those cool cars, and I'm pretty sure there are hundreds of amazing scenery stills and screenshot-like renders.What made Mineimator cool is that you could bring your actual world save files to life and make your character/skin move around and tell a story, if anyone were to make a video, it should reflect on that.

    To prevent abuse (going through someone's entire profile and up/downvoting everything) and to make you value your upvotes and downvotes more, as you only have so many per day.
