Dont shout at me! I have done a search and i know its been discussed before, But after being told about poibot, i was unable to actually locate its origin (me being an idiot i guess).

Ive found it mentioned all over the place but no links work and google throws me back here.

Does anyone know where i can get hold of it?

wow, watching that poibot has possibly made me the most confused I've ever been when it comes to poi.

dance like nobody is watching

poibot would be much much much more useful if you could link to specific patterns that you'd made.

can you do that already or is it entirely unpossible?

i like making him do head isolations in floor plane. i wish i could do that...

Glad you all like poibot,


Simian:
The patterns are listed on the right hand side, but i never got round to linking them up, the plan was to allow everyone to save their patterns, then you could load any pattern from the database.

At the time i didn't really know how to do this, but now i do.

The main poibot program is pretty dirty, really needs a whole new re write, also not sure if i'll do it in flash.

But anyway, Project Poibot has it's own forum over here

and all files relating to the project can be found in the poibot gallery

So there's been a lot of interest in poibot again recently, the version that's up is mainly a 'proof of concept' and was the result of my 10 day christmas holiday about 3 years ago.

At some point soon i'll get another 2 weeks to nail a new version, i've been looking into various ways of doing it already.

And cole smile i'm in melbourne at the mo, heading back to new plural zee alpha land in a coupla days, then in a couple months moving back to nz for the rest of the year. Not sure i can afford to go to uk for a long time as i is skint.

is it just me or does poibot sometimes magically pass the poi through its body?

do you believe in something beautiful?
then get up and be it.
