Redstone

With redstone, not much is impossible to achieve. From simple logic gates to full-blown CPUs and computers, the stars are the limits. I’ve seen people build incredible things just by using redstone. This is a sample of what I’ve been able to engineer using redstone.

Project Alpha (RPC1)

Project Alpha is where it all began. On March 17th, 2021, I published the very first hex computer onto YouTube: the Redstone Personal Computer, commonly known today as the RPC1. Though it was bulky compared to its sisters the RPC2 and 3, it shattered the previous record held by the MPLC-1, shattering it by almost 9,000 cu bl.

Project Beta (RPC2)

Three months after the release of Project Alpha, Project Beta was released. The RPC2 proved better in size and power compared to the RPC1. It was also the first unit to not one-tick the torches on Bedrock, thanks to an adjustment to the decoder. The project also introduced the Hydra 1004, a way of storing memory long term. It acts similar to and HDD, with memory being constantly looped like a CD or DVD.

Project Gamma (RPC3)

Project Gamma outshines both of my other redstone projects. By far the most code-dense unit, the RPC3 is also the first of the RPC-series to be Turing complete. This means that given enough memory, this tiny computer can simulate any program on earth. The family introduces the RenderDragon 101, the first redstone hex GPU. Though very primitive and bulky, it can directly connect to an RPC3, and generate a 3 x 5 pixel display that is transmitted with a 1-wide redstone serial converter. The COIL display is a new type of redstone serial display, removing the pixel overflow that often plague other monitors of this type. Lastly, the FDAR/FDAT system is a remastered way of transporting hex signals over long distances.
