RDF Minecraft ASCII Word Processor

[MrHallexo]

It's Asewome !

[TheMinecrafter47]

Proves you play to much

[TheMinecrafter47]

(cough) (cough) nerds (cough) (cough)

[nbvdkamp]

Thats f*cking amazing!!!!!

[raafmaat]

i made a word processor (completely other design tho)

with a normal straight up piston screen,

it may not be very fast (i havent put instant wire in there yet)

but let me know what you think about this design xD --> /watch?v=3DsVnkp32ds

[The2000secret]

Cool

[TheMusicDukeBox]

Hello Berick. I would like to requast some advise from you. I am in the middle of building a redstone structure which is going to take a word input and translate that into a differant language. all i would like help with is building the coder. If we can arange a time you could come on my server and see my progress so far. Thanks.

[TheZephyrCraft]

Now, for Retina display...

[IPlayInBeastMode]

Could do this much more efficiently in terms of speed and compactness using my 8bit stack memory array. Not to mention a byte is more than enough to represent every character in the ASCII character set. Also, as my stack memory array is infinitely expandable (and stackable) you could easily extend it to store 100+ characters, instead of only 12. Pushing onto the stack adds characters, popping off the stack backspaces, etc.

However, the 7 bit decoders for the display would be a bitch to compact.

[firebomber39]

I typed "999" and a creeper face showed up, was that the secret character?

[danmandood]

(let's see if u can guess what I'm typing )RED ROBINS oh crap it's redstone

[BerickCook]

@danmandood ^_^

[Mikefun986]

Nice. Hold on its not just nice it f#%king awesome good job dude

[WilsonStudiosIAT]

Now make it so you can change the font.

[BerickCook]

@WilsonStudiosIAT Technically, since you can modify the letters in the code bank, you can make it any font or language you want. Though only 1 font at a time XD

[bnlpmasters]

Download link?

[TheLuKaStArZ]

check my vids see what you think love minecraft

[DDDarkDDD]

what I'd like to see is the function to select displays with arrows so that you could overwrite a display to correct what you wrote (without a lot of backspacing and rewriting)

unfortunately you would have to change the feature in which it automatically cleans the next screen when selecting it. which would also influence the clear function quite a bit, right?

[BerickCook]

@DDDarkDDD Not really. You could leave the current functions as they are, and wire up some arrow buttons to the right parts of the auto-selector system.

[Gozurtju]

Is it ok with you if I find this rather scary?

[BerickCook]

@Gozurtju Muahahahahaha! ... I mean, ok.

[thekidsfromminecraft]

Nice computer man! I am trying to make a typewriter something like this. though i doubt it'll be as epic as yours! This will definately be one of the best creations i've ever see accomplished with redstone. Next to redgame of course!

[fyesan13]

omg..... how.. what.. omg... mind blown

[cheesecakes121]

Make a giantg page so i can write a report

[DRnab1983]

My only question is WHY?

[ChrisChrone]

@DRnab1983 Why not!

[omgcat44]

A printer in minecraft well played

[ProfA12345]

OH MY GOD!!!!!When I heard,that you´ve built it with the ability of writing big AND small letters,it blowed up my mind!!Extremly good job!!!

[Arancaytar]

Awesome! Now all we need is a C compiler.

[TheArrnooShow]

damn how long did you took to build it?

[Xxalmostsk8erchrisxX]

I'm having trouble downloading it. Help? Please?

[sexkef]

FUCKING JENIES

ITSREALLY FUCKING NICE

i even want to make that

[hahhuli]

Today I made a switch with what you can turn redstone torch on/off.

[mr2octavio]

Why in all the videos of the RDF there is a top comment like "We will play minecraft in minecraft!" or stuff like that?

[riped01]

very pretty? moar like beautiful! I AM IMPRESSED.

[animowany111]

please make it QWERTY!

P.S. subbed

[lastchemicalengineer]

Do this with the Miniblock MOD!!!!

[lastchemicalengineer]

sorry, I meant the Little Blocks mod, can you imagine how many thing you could do with that? :D

[MrX13415]

WoW this is realy NICE!

[f0rgotteng0st]

my god that is ridiculous, how long did that take you to build?

[MrBlackNova]

I gonna use it as my doormat so i can wriite stuffs on it :D

[666poopmonster666]

How do you add more screens?

[The321takeoff]

i built a piston door today...

[JAGIDTechNewsReviews]

I can make a wood house with an iron door.

[tsilll]

my display system has 4 characters

[Postbus22]

And i cant open a door with redstone

[DaSheep]

thx notch

[BigFalloutFan]

OMG, pls make a tut of this

[Mazzerinn]

im out of words

[DubstepLyrics]

Holy....Definitely in the top 3 of the most amazing minecraft creations i've ever seen...

[BerickCook]

@DubstepLyrics Thank you! I'd like to know what the other 2 are. I always like to see awesome stuff. BTW, LOVE your vids XD

[DubstepLyrics]

@BerickCook Well, this one is probably #2, really close to #1 lol. #2 is from someone else I believe. He made some giant spaceship or whatever, and it just looked phenomenal. And #3 would be that Sims 2D creation. Some amazing stuff, man. Much respect to you and everyone else who creates these things :) And thanks, man haha! :DD

[BerickCook]

@DubstepLyrics Heh! I know the Sims 2D quite well. It was made by some of my fellow RDF guys

[jeromsavestheworld]

@DubstepLyrics you play minecraft OMG! :P

[CommanderSwedePlays]

the only problem with this educational opertunity is few people are as nice as you to explain it, so most people only know how to make stuff like that if they already understood it

[BerickCook]

@CommanderSwedePlays That's was one of the driving forces behind creating the RDF. Our community of engineers has grown into a wonderful resource for people who want to learn more about redstone than double doors and cannons.

[MrNowwhatido]

excuse me but if you stand on the shift key and press clear all you get a werid symbol. is that normal?

[BerickCook]

@MrNowwhatido It is! You found the "secret" character! The symbol is a creeper face.

[MrNowwhatido]

@BerickCook OMG YAY :)

[TheReeturd]

so,i built a dirt house today....

[thedude213]

I'm seriously speechless, amazing.

[TheCheezusKrist]

I love this:D I've been attempting to create something like this, except with only the basic 26 characters for now and i couldn't manage to make a way for it to switch over from one space to the next when typing and have a backspace option. I also love how compact it is, mine has just turned into a huge jumbled mess xD Incredible creation:)

[BerickCook]

@insaneHacker999 You suspect correct! In the explanation videos, I break it down to it's individual parts for you, so you can see that it's basically just a matter of turning specific torches on and off :)

[MinecraftingNinja]

lol redstone

[CobainVideos]

Can you even type: Æ Ø Å ?

[zeropaladn]

Brains on the walls. Need to be reminded to wear a helmet next time I watch a Minecraft video with anything to do with redstone :D

[mmfanatic666]

This is absolutely... utterly... totally amazing and mind-boggling!

Thoroughly impressed, this is awesome!

Big congrats!

[allegraissmart]

And so, signs in minecraft became useless.

[TsarofWumpica]

Anyone find the Easter Egg yet?

[SneakyPengy]

THis is amazing....

[coder49]

That is just boss.

[TheRmiBoys]

watch some asshole make a Trojan virus within Minecraft to fuck shit up...

[TheMinerzKrack]

hey look an infestation of creepers....

[JT777]

mind = blown;

[BalthierTheNobody]

I made a cobblestone house... so take THAT dirt house builders!

[rm02px]

All you have to do is put this as your resume. Seriously.

[omgiownk]

Soon we will be able to play minecraft within minecraft. oh my god.

[GogozRule]

@omgiownk I think someone already did that. Look it up.

[Jeffreyshnigity]

@omgiownk Soon we will be able to come up with new jokes for minecraft computer jokes.

[01Barricade]

@omgiownk and what the fuck does this have to do with a Word Processor?

[derek19062]

@omgiownk You can play minecraft in minecraft already. search it in youtube.

[Xbox360fan4life]

I bet that was a bitch to make,,,

[TwoSkinnyKids]

Ill stick with text edit

[Shift8YawnsShift8]

Eh it kinda doesn't do much... When I first saw the description I thought it was an actual processor. You should make one of those. It can be done, it'd just be pretty difficult... Dw you seem to have time

[adognamedsally]

@Shift8YawnsShift8 IT does exactly what it says it does in the description. IT is a Word processor, not like a general processor. It accepts character inputs, saves and displays them, as well as allow the user to re-write with relative ease.

[Shift8YawnsShift8]

@adognamedsally IT doesn't do much. Also, as it doesn't produce a printable document, it's not a word processor... I never said it was a general processor. It doesn't save anything.

[adognamedsally]

@Shift8YawnsShift8 But it does save things! It saves them so that they continue to display on the screen. All you would need is some memory and then you could move whatever is on the screen to the memory (rs-nor latch array maybe?) and it would be more convincingly saved. I guess its true that it doesn't have memory in the truest sense, but the fact that it can continuously display things means that it does save the characters (until you reset them).

[lukas1051]

Redstone Development Foundation? Ahahaha, cute. Seriously though, you could've spent that time making something useful to society, not a very basic word processor on a game that's clearly not designed for anything remotely logical.

[adognamedsally]

@lukas1051 I think that this sort of thing is usefully didactic. On one hand, it is a visual explanation of logic circuitry and demonstration of how complex circuits are made, and helps viewers and people in general understand how computers work. And on the other hand, it is really impressive and it obviously go this guy tons of recognition. I, for one, would be disappointed if there were not people making computers and 1:1 replicas of the starship enterprise etc... in minecraft.

[Kanashto]

how long will it take u to convert it to write from right to left?

[AGOW100]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT

*nerdgasm*

*minecraftgasm*

*jizz in my pants*

THIS

IS

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i love you, in a non gay way

[guitarsk8r11]

i can't even comprehend how amazing this is... dude i love you... i literally feel retarded right now..

[biodesu]

^_^

[AirlinePilotStuart]

...

I can open a door with redstone.

I feel just as proud.

[VISP4RT4NIV]

Imagine when we can play Minecraft inside of Minecraft. MINECEPTION!

[B1gO]

Can i marry your brain? @____@

[bPaIsNtKaYrd]

shit pc in the pc plz tell me how u made it

[HeavyVideoz]

Awesome work!!

You should cover the other torches so you can only see the keyboard ones!

[johnraynor56]

REDSTONE! giving you logic so teachers dont haved too!!!

[bmxerjmk]

2015: playing minecraft inside minecraft

[Nervly]

I want to see ur brain's color!

This is fking totally awsome!!!!

Subbed ;D

[SackFulloApplez1993]

Dude a computer within a computer game MIND FUCK 0.o

[kittymaster12]

I don't know why but my shift buttons don't work.

[THEGREATALMIGHTYZIG]

how long did this take? this is EPIC

[Dannan1989]

Will you have my babies?

[SuperNESFreak]

While the redstone CPU may be more advanced than this is, this is much more impressive. Congratulations.

[spencertron88]

keep goin with this and soon we'll have a redstone text parsing compiler/IDE!!

[emodukon]

Good ol' fashioned whats? ;)

[faykson]

amazing !

[TheSirMagus]

Thumbs up if you were red stoned while watching this?

[TheFunkyHomasapian]

Awesome this is really cool!

[MatterStorm1]

Now give it a hard drive (or just separate RAN I guess) and save/recall functions.

[Sleqqus]

ja pierdole

[codered543]

Mind = Blown saw this on the forums and now i subbed u :)

[fgttgyguj]

hehe i had the pleasure of blowing up your amazing machine with tnt after i got bored with it ;)

[IRLMinecrafter]

@Boj95 How do you know ? It's pretty complex for being inside a game :p Do you have a source, would just like to read some :D

[nexxam1011]

i have a bad feeling someone is gonna make nethack in minecraft... oh shi-

[stuartrockin]

Y U SO GENIUS?!

[aoeepicvids]

The biggest question still remain... will it blend!?

[TheSinisterSquirrel]

G0:00 Redstone!!!



[XDeadlyGamerX]

10 people didn't no what he was typing

[DrFunkesMinecraft]

This is truly fantastic.

[hiperkevin]

omg!



[sounnikoura]

I wonder if this could work faster with Pistons.

[MrShadowTriforce]

and yesterday i made a small dirt house ^-^

[PBSocalPB]

Please tell me you are an electrical engineer in real life. This kind of ingenuity is needed for the sake of humanity's progression.

[BerickCook]

@PBSocalPB A hobbyist one, yes. Though I do have a patent in the works, so if that goes through I suppose it makes me a real one ^_^

[JATO457]

@BerickCook I have a challenge for you.

I want you to make a working minecart bank that will have a search engine that sends the top 5 results based on a particular input, and will properly resend them back to their holding spots

[TheRealKoolguy007]

@BerickCook Do you solve problems that requires thinking outside the box, and do those problems have something with electronics? Then I believe that you have earned the title of engineer, and if anyone says otherwise then show them this. P.S. Sorry about the misdirected reply PBSocalPB.

[ethanpet113]

@BerickCook You should be spending your time trying to break the silicon processor limitations, instead of re-implementing an ASCII keyboard and display, it would be so much more productive. Or maybe build this in real life and use it as a teaching tool.

Seriously though getchar() and printf(), trust me it's been done.

[BerickCook]

@ethanpet113 So... I shouldn't ever be allowed to have fun playing a videogame that challenges my creativity?

[ethanpet113]

@BerickCook No it's not that, we all need time off, but you clearly expended a large quantity of time constructing this which given your obvious technological skills would have been better spent on solving problems that have not already been solved. In other words "Why re-invent the wheel, when you can build an airplane?"

[BerickCook]

@ethanpet113 I don't consider less than an hour a day over a 2 week period to be a large quantity of time. Now, if I had to dedicate a couple weeks of freetime or something that intensive to it, then I would definitely agree with you.

Thank you for the compliments though, and don't worry. I use a lot more of my time working on solving real-world problems than I do playing Minecraft ;)

[THE123HAMMER]

@ethanpet113 Dude, everyone has to have fun, this stuffs not that complicated, it's like playing game for fun. In fact, it is, its just like playing a digital electronics simulator for fun but this is in minecraft which is a pretty cool place to play with boolean logic without having to worry about real life, its just fun which everyone should have some time.

[zarblitz]

@ethanpet113 You never spend some time having fun, ever? You do? Oh, so do other people, and this is how some people do it.

[132hooligan]

o_o

[Goldspar1]

Imagine how fucking big my computer would be.

[nkgamerxd]

You Sir are a fucking MineCraft GOD.

[countpancake]

FUCK ME!!!!

[kzucarok]

This is very impressive, I see it has won a Digital daimond, One thing Im wondering, Cant you make the decoder smaller, or put each Display closer? I think Its possible to put each display at least 1 block appart if im not mistaken, VERY NICE JOB THOUGH, Looks awesome at night XD

[pizzacraft]

i wish notch would make it more easy to make computers so i atleast can understand SOME of it!

[JustForFunAndMe1]

0.o

[silverkill95]

the easter egg is Shift + Clear all it makes a creeper face

[WeTryHardz]

I feel lucky... I am viewer 77,777 :D

[TheDamien1800]

holy shit you crazy !!!! but it's so cool !

[BloodyNightTV]

You are my HERO.

[BerickCook]

@TheRedPixel113 Thank you, and none taken! Yes, it does get boring quickly :P It's more of a "Look what can be done" than something to play with for hours.

[B33ARRHS4L1F3]

im not touching that thing i`ll just frigg it up

[gangtra]

Thats A Very Nice ASCII Word Processor You Have There...

[the747videoer]

Does it work in 1.6.6?

[BerickCook]

@the747videoer Yes. It was originally built in 1.6

[qazeka]

NEXT LEVEL = minecraft in minecraft using redstone.

[TheSterrett]

@qazeka OH GOD.

[lackofcheese]

This word processor is a pale imitation of the real thing without a spell checker...

[XxBroBuzzxX]

Today is minecraft I made wooden house...

[13hockeygod]

How the FUCK did you do that????

[skittelcraft]

???

[TheWill920]

I bet the special character is a creeper face

[TheKonni14]

How long did you bild it o.O

[irishfatty66]

holy santa fucking claus shit you are amazing

[James18998]

can i have the map!?? oh, and... THIS IS AWESOME!!!! it must have taken months though!

[supermactrainer]

@James18998 you can find the downlaod for the map in the description.

[PolakexCharizard]

My head hurts, now I don't want to play minecraft anymore.....oh wait, yes I do.

[dogo431]

I thought we was going to write RedTube

[Interwention]

Minecraft: The only game where you can build a working computer and a 50 foot golden cock and balls.

[magemasterrendan]

That should took u sooo much time man, Respect and great creation!

[nullins]

95th character?! U+FDD0!

Eyes of the Basilisk. Do I win?
