| Would like to clarify a few things:
|
| - This build does NOT run in real time. It runs on MCHPRS, the
| server developed by StackDoubleFlow, which speeds up the game
| roughly 10-20,000x while running redstone. That brings the
| framerate to a much more reasonable 0.1fps, so the long
| timelapses in the video only took 9 hours to record in total.
|
| - The world download currently in the description is non-
| functional for two reasons: in order to prevent content thieves
| such as Steveee immediately stealing it and making a profit, and
| also because Uwerta and I are currently improving the GUI system
| to be more similar to normal Minecraft (there's some
| dissimilarity in how items are moved around in the inventory).
| I'll update this comment when we release a functional download.
|
| - If you want to learn more about how it works, a brief
| explanation video is in the description, and that one has links
| to all the documentation including flowcharts for the GPU and
| other hardware, and the entire (commented) program itself.
