ROBLOX Cards Go International!

ROBLOX Cards Go International!

ROBLOX Cards have gone international! We are pleased to announce that ROBLOX Cards are now available in the UK, Ireland, and additional Canadian locations. In the UK the cards are available at Sainsbury’s. In Ireland, they are available at Gamestop. In Canada, ROBLOX Cards are now available at Walmart in addition to Best Buy, Toys R Us, and 7-Eleven. For those of you not familiar with prepaid ROBLOX Cards – here’s how they work:

You purchase a ROBLOX Card at Sainsbury’s, Gamestop, or one of our other retail partners. Once you have your card, you login to ROBLOX and go to www.roblox.com/gamecard. Scratch off the section on the back of the card that hides the secret code needed to activate your card. The code on the back of the card can only be used once so be sure not to purchase a card if the back is already scratched off. Enter the code and click redeem. BAM! You’re ready to enjoy your Robux or Builder’s Club.

Personal Build Servers Running Hot

Personal Build Servers Running Hot

The overwhelming success of personal build servers is evident – more than 200 of them are running on ROBLOX as I write this.

ROBLOXians in these servers are building so much stuff it is pushing the limits of ROBLOX to the max and beyond.

The ROBLOX team has identified an issue that will prevent personal servers with a ton of blocks from saving – things start to get shaky around 20,000-25,000 parts. Places above this size may not save correctly. You may lose work. As such Personal Servers should be considered a Beta feature at this point. We’re going to leave them on for users to experiment with.

For techies, the problem we are encountering seems to be related to the fact that the ROBLOX server is a 32 bit process. This means it can address 4 GB of RAM (2^32 bytes). Depending on the OS, half of that is usually reserved for system allocations, leaving 2 GB for user memory. We’re finding that personal servers fit within this memory envelop of 2 GB with up to 36,000 parts. However, the additional memory required to persist these places to disk fails to allocate and the save operation does not complete. There are several things we can work on to fix this issue – most of which will make ROBLOX run faster in general and are a huge win for our players. We will start attacking these next week.

Our ultimate vision has always been having 100 players building in a level that supports millions of parts. We will get there. It’s going to be a wild ride.

Zombie Fest!

Unleash the powerful forces of the Zombie hordes across Robloxia and wreck havoc across the lands! With the power of Zombies and these ancient artifacts in your hands wipe out legions and show off the zombie awesomeness!

Brain Trap

– The necromancers controlling the zombies infect these brains with powerful dark magic, that activates when anyone but a necromancer gets close. A zombie spawns to attack its unwary victim and chases him as long as it can to finish the job.

Zombie Slayer

– The Zombie Slayer while being a amazingly powerful sword wielder by any good swordsmen, also feeds on the power of the Zombies making its wielder stronger and stronger. Watch out!

Cliche Staff Of Zombie Infection

– Using powerful necromancy, this staff shoots out viral infectious seeds that upon impact turn its opponents into zombies, slowing them down massively and inflicting a lot of damage.

The Necrosapien Staff

– Said to be wielded by only the most powerful necromancers on Robloxia, The Necrosapien Staff summons unholy zombies. The summoned zombies act as a shield to the wielder of the staff and attack viciously anyone and everyone that get in their way, carefully returning to their master afterwards.

Please discuss the new gear items in the forums.

Mini-interview

Why do you play ROBLOX?

Because of the variety of places! On ROBLOX, there are places for everyone. It’s also fun to play around with the real-life physics, which makes ROBLOX so great! You can make friends anywhere, from the games, to the forums.

What is your favorite thing on ROBLOX?

Definitely the fact that you can share your creations with the world; be it places, models, clothes, etc. Sure, there are some incredibly awesome places on ROBLOX, but have you ever taken your time to look at the detail that goes into the clothes that some of the graphic designers have made? That’s what I like about ROBLOX: There is a wide variety of people, from scripters to graphic designers. It’s almost impossible not to make friends!

What do you want your fellow ROBLOXians to know about you?

I LOVE computers! When my first birthday came, what did my parents get me? Yes, you guessed it, a computer! I was one of those babies, where you could hit your rattle on the keyboard, and make things happen!

I am a graphic designer. (Not professional, though.) I taught myself Photoshop. I started out by learning MS Paint, then Paint.Net, until I understood the “ultimate” program, Photoshop. Most people say that I am the “King of ROBLOX Ads”! (I don’t believe that! There are TONS of radical ad makers out there.) If you don’t know the first thing about graphic design, I encourage you to learn more about it, and to try your hand at it in MS Paint, and possibly Paint.NET. Set your goals, and you will reach them!

Do you have any advice for noobs?

Don’t walk off the end of the baseplate! There’s no telling where it leads. If you do, don’t worry, you will respawn back to the starting point. If something should go wrong, just blame John!
