EDIT: I made this before the repeater behavior was changed and it no longer works correctly, I believe. Sorry about this, if I get inspiration I might make an updated one.

This is my crowning glory with redstone. You can input a message up to 15 characters using the alphabet and spaces and it will scroll it across a display board of repeaters.

You can download a schematic of this at MCSchematics: http://www.mcschematics.com/index.php?topic=3697.0
And here is the long awaited WORLD SAVE that everyone has been asking me about :P I put nearly all of my good creations in there including the keyboard marquee and the re-programmable door lock. Have fun! Oh and also, there is a little bit of an Easter Egg in the world somewhere so let me know if you find it :D

I made and designed this entirely on my own so please tell me what you think :D

EDIT: Ok guys there's been a lot of questions that I'm going to try to answer.
First off, thanks everybody for the comments, I really didn't expect this much attention to come to it :D :D
Second, everybody has different taste in music so just keep that in mind people.
Next, how much time it took. It took about a week or two just for the display drivers for each letter, bc it was soooo tedious. In total maybe two or three weeks. Debugging it wasn't actually all that bad bc I built each part separately and put it together with mcedit.
Next off, no I am not an electrical engineer or anything else. If you can believe it, I just finished my 2nd year of college going into the medical field. In fact, I had no logic education or anything, I just learned everything through the wiki and the Internet and experiments with redstone :)
People have been asking for the save file. I have already put the link for the schematic up above and probably won't put up the world save bc it is a massive world but then again I might. We'll see.
As far as tutorials, I will definitely make a video or two about it and see if you guys like it.
Also, I did make this before I had a job and had a lot of time on my hands but now I'm very time limited but I'll try to get the tutorials out and some videos of my other creations :)

Thanks again for all the comments and support, lemme know if you need anything else :)

EDIT2:
Alright guys I've gotten so many requests, I'll put up a world save eventually. I will probably make a new world and put some of my projects in it.

The texture pack is mostly the default and some changes I've made to some ugly blocks like glowstone and redstone.

As for the voxel marquee: you can still go on one of their videos and see where I commented on it asking about it. I never got a response so I designed my own that was an attempt to make it usable by everyone not just redstone programmers

  • The map is dead ( glowstone + restone = ... )

  • @punkie245 Yea, I know. I made this before Jeb changed the repeater behavior, and that messed it up I believe. Also, this was before pistons, which I would have loved to have been able to use lol would've made it a lot better probably. I'll update the description to say it's broken.

  • @davisd0909 it is fixeble all you need to do is download the world and before entering it use MCEdit to replace the glowstone with saming else then you can enter the world and it will work :D

  • @Chade1Fallstar Ok, I will probably do that soon, thanks for letting me know.

    Btw, your username is awesome! One of my fav series :D

  • Simply amazing, i made one of these but with a pad for programming, but great job!

  • @TheOriginalKa1ben haha thanks John. Lately I've been on a server, so doing less redstone :D but a little bit...

  • @MrDilwo He's not kidding. He's a good friend of mine, and he works a lot and goes to school. He just spends a lot of free time on the Minecraft (particularly on redstone lol)

    Still blown away by this, "davisd" lol

  • Very time limited my ass.

  • @davisd0909 could you do a guide for how to do the timing between the letters??? ive been working on a minecraft qwerty keyboard... ive got it to do individual letters but i dont no how u wud make the word work... its probably because my layout of my redstone wiring is completely different so it wouldnt be possible to convert mine into a word.
