Wait, didn't you do that pong machine? I was sure it was you

It was actually me with some help from @Snektron @ben_g and @alexgt iirc. Also, its not a computer because its not Turing complete, the only thing it can do is play pong

I have built a command block computer in single player a while back though.

The game itself isn't Turing complete, but the fact that you could make it proves that Minecraft itself is Turing complete.

@xMarminq_, I don't want to discourage you in any way, but are you implementing an actual CPU with Redstone, or are you hardocding functions? Either way is cool, but the former would be a lot more impressive, even following a tutorial.

@c4ooo ah right, I guess I got confused with someone else's build

t just has a few features, so a cpu would be really hard to make on a iPhone

With command blocks, something like x86 would be a piece of cake to make. I wonder if there is any interest in a x86 CPU in Minecraft

No command blocks on the pocket edition yet.

uyoure doing this on a mobile device? D:
but minecraft on mobile devices is one of the worst things I EVER played!!

you should REALLY get it for PC and add shaders and stuff so it looks fancy

Literally impossible to make an actual CPU without worldedit

I don't care about graphics, but my main gripe about phone games are the controls.

u/p2 February 09, 2017, 08:52:31 AM

I agree, it doesnt only look terrible, it's a terrible user interface as well with controls that are really slowing you down as hell >.<
on mobile you need twice as long for everything

u/xMarminq_ February 11, 2017, 01:09:02 AM

UPDATE: The reason there was no updates this/week was because I had to rewire THE WHOLE SYSTEM AGAIN!!

After tedious work, I am glad to start working on the images again

Stay tuned for a showcase on what I have so far!
My YT is in my profile, for future reference

But can it run Crysis?

Make sure to post a video of the computer in action in this topic when it's functional in case I forget to check your channel.

Ohai nice to see you again.

I wonder if a FPS would be possible via Computercraft... I know it wouldn't via just redstone, seeing how slow things can update, but it would be funny to see a rudimentary first person shooter or 3D maze running from the game
