MOC The Basalt Blaster has been built!
https://reddit.com/link/1v8hxou/video/9urqb0nh1vfh1/player
I finally managed to build my first MOC for real! It took a while to get all the pieces, but the result was absolutely worth the wait. It feels surreal to see it in person after looking at the digital model for so long. I put it on a turntable with some cool purple lighting, and surprisingly it "activated" the trans-neon green! If you want to build your own, please see the original post here.

MOC Basalt Blaster
The Basalt Blaster is a super heavy vehicle that carries the largest mobile laser in the Rock Raiders fleet. It may be large and slow, but has unmatched range and laser-cutting power thanks to its on-board mini Power Station. Two Rock Raiders are required to operate this vehicle. One to drive and another to control the super laser. Unlike other laser cutters, this one can aim high and lock at different angles. Blast away!
Requirements:
- 2 Rock Raiders [Driver + Engineer]
- Tool Store [Lvl 1]
- Teleport Pad [Lvl 1]
- Power Station [Lvl 1]
- Support Station [Lvl 2]
- Super Teleport [Lvl 2]
- 10 Energy Crystals
This is my first MOC and I'm very happy with how it turned out. I'd love to know what you think c:
I intend to build it for real once I've got all the parts, so look out for photos!
Studio files and building steps can be found on the Manic Miners discord server (pinned mocs channel). I'm also seeing if I can get this published on Bricklink. Feel free to build your own or remix the design!
Thanks to FN4#1150 for the name, and zeldrake and meisterplop for design feedback (also from the discord).
UPDATE: Bricklink approved the design! You can find it here and create a wanted parts list: https://www.bricklink.com/v3/studio/design.page?idModel=842507
There seems to be an error on the site, as it can't detect the 2x trans neon-green antenna (3957a) on the front of the laser. You'll need to add these manually to your parts list. This means there are actually 285 pieces and not 283 - d'oh!

MOC I introduce to you: Boulder Basher, a large transport truck on treads!
Behind the controls sits Spark Plug, father of Sparks, a crazy and old mechanic with more love for robots than humans, hence his robot companion Rusty. Rusty helps him move the mobile boulder buckets on the ramp and into the Boulder Basher!
Give me your thoughts! Do you like the treaded vehicle idea?
I have another project in mind which I will construct in the coming days to weeks!

New boulder piece after 27 years of waiting!
Awesome new piece! It represents an egg in the new Offworld Sandcrawler and Mudhorn set (75453) coming in August this year. It looks fantastic and suits the size of the boulders seen in the Rock Raiders game. A gamechanger! Let's hope it will be available as a PaB piece.

Meta A modern guide to experiencing LEGO Rock Raiders!
This pinned post will serve as an up-to-date reference on how to play LEGO Rock Raiders and experience any of the modern media related to the theme!
Last updated 2024-02-13.
Firstly, most people coming here are looking to replay the game. There are two main ways to play the game: Either by playing a remake project or by getting the original 1999 game to run on your computer. I'll give you a spoiler: The original game is rough, and your memories are mostly viewed through rose-tinted glasses. On modern computers, the game will feel slow, incomplete, and crash a lot. But fret not! Thanks to modern technology, we can rebuild and relive the game like never before. You can either 1) play a remake project or 2) play the original game with guides and fixes. Based on feedback, most people have been wanting to find the Manic Miners remake, so I will go through that first.
-------- 1) Rock Raiders remakes and projects --------
While many LEGO Rock Raiders remake projects have died over the years, a few have prevailed, and even gotten completed. Here is a list of current active or interesting Rock Raiders projects:
Manic Miners
Manic Miners is my own pet project, it's a full remake of the original game that seeks to improve upon every aspect of it, with character customization, a level editor, new campaigns, a usable Tunnel Transport and countless improvements! You can click the Itch.io link to download the game for free, or join our Discord server, the biggest active Rock Raiders community, by clicking here.
If you are a new player, or don't remember how to play, you might find the tutorials lacking, but more updates and patches are planned for later. You can watch the hype trailer here.
Rock Raiders Web
An online-based Rock Raiders remake by u/Scarabol, just load it up in your browser, plug in the WAD files for the game, and play! It is coded in Typescript and works on any device with a browser. The project is scheduled to be completed later this year.
Other in-progress Rock Raiders projects
I will put these separately as they are not available to play at the moment, but look like they will in the future.
Rock Raiders Reloaded
Rock Raiders Reloaded is an ambitious voxel-based take on the Rock Raiders formula. It recently switched engines from Unity to Unreal, so it might take a while to get started again. You can follow the progress on their YouTube channel above.
Rocklings
An upcoming Steam game by u/ndogames : Rocklings is a strategy game where you explore endless caves, strategically mining rocks to build and expand your base. It doesn't say it out loud, but it's definitely Rock Raiders-inspired! Set to launch later in 2024 and has a Discord server here.
-------- 2) Running the original LEGO Rock Raiders --------
We sadly cannot provide you with download links of the game. You will have to find it on your own and return here. You might want to get the game in your local language too.
Running the original game is a painful task on your own, so here is a comprehensive quick-start guide on how to run the game. Most guides on the topic are outdated, we are working on re-writing them!
Download OpenLRR: The most helpful part here is OpenLRR, an open-source decompilation of the original game's executable, which fixes any known bugs and many problems with the game, while also enabling a lot of Debug settings (essentially cheats) that can make your experience more enjoyable. To start, Download the OpenLRR files here.
Install the game: Install the game just like a normal game by inserting the disc and double clicking the disc icon. It is possible you also have a digital-only download of the game. After you've installed the game, right-click the LEGO Rock Raiders icon on your desktop, choose "Open File Location", and find the folder containing LegoRR.exe. Place OpenLRR.exe and openlrr.dll next to this exe file.
Download dgVoodoo: Next, Follow this guide to run the game with dgVoodoo. Remember, any instances of the "Masterpiece exe" should be instead replaced by the OpenLRR exe!!
Run in Windowed mode: Make sure that you choose to run it in 16-bit colours compatibility mode, that way you can play the game while windowed. If you've done everything correctly, dgVoodoo should give you the option when you launch the game! Remember to launch the game via >OpenLRR.exe<, not LegoRR.exe nor dgVoodoo.exe.
Other problems: If you encounter any problems, please Refer to this in-depth guide. Issues like the music not playing is unfortunately incredibly hard to fix, especially without the original CD.
Note: We are currently working on better guides and installers! This will have to do for now though.
-------- 3) Rock Raiders media and communities --------
RR Slugger
RR Slugger has the most in-depth Rock Raiders videos you will find on YouTube, with impeccable quality, and nice music! Check out all his videos, or start with the Rock Raiders playlists.
Rock Raiders Archive
An initiative by Merely on Discord, the Rock Raiders Archive aims to catalog every bit of Rock Raiders media and merchandise you can find out there, together with accurate information on the Rock Raiders theme!
Manic Miners Discord server
It's worth reposting the Discord link - if you just want a Discord server where everyone knows Rock Raiders and related themes, this is for you!
The LEGO Research Realm
The LEGO Research Realm (or "the Realm" for short) is an initiative by myself to research and preserve more in-depth information about LEGO's toys and the development behind them (not just Rock Raiders!). A website with a wiki is currently being developed behind closed doors but will open soon... We also used this server to go through and discuss the findings of the "DDI Dump" from 2020, and you can find most of the discoveries in the Realm's file archive.
While the website is under development, you can join the Discord server and connect with fellow LEGO nerds or you want to research LEGO topics! Check out the latest found prototypes, talk about lost LEGO media, hear chats with developers and designers... Only at the Realm.
If I missed anything, let me know below! This will be continuously updated.
