Frequently Asked Questions
1. Where are you from?
I'm from Italy but I live in England.
2. Which languages do you speak?
I currently speak three languages: Italian, Romanian and English (also a bit of Spanish and Esperanto. Check out Esperanto, it's an interesting language!).
Many of you also asked me if I speak German. Nope, I don't speak it since it's too difficult but I would like to learn it...
3. Why did you choose the name "TheRedEngineer"?
You know when someone asks a kid "what do you want to be when you grow up?"? Well, kids used (and still use) to say "I want to be an astronaut", or a pilot etc. etc. As a kid my dream was to become an Engineer. When I created my channel, I was doing engineering at school in Italy and at the same time I was really attracted by the "redstone" part of Minecraft.
Mixing these two passions, here's how my name was created!
Oh, and when I found out that engineering wasn't only building houses in a "Lego" style but a complicated mix of laws and constraints.. engineering is no longer my dream!
4. How did you start making one commands?
It all started in January 2015 when out of nowhere I found SQRTDude's video announcing the winner of his one command contest. The winner of SQRT's contest was IJAMinecraft and I decided to give a look at his videos. He had about 3k subscribers.
Video after video, I was really amazed about those long codes that allowed you to import a "vanilla mod" into your world and I said: I want to make these codes too!
5. Where did you learn to make one command creations?
I learned to make one commands by myself. I looked inside one of IJA's commands and after a lot of practice (and raging), I made my first one command creation: the Mining Turtle!
6. Why do you compact commands by hand?
Even if there are some generators that compact your machines automatically, I compact all of my commands by hand. Why? Because I have more freedom to personalize my creation and also because I can keep my brain active.
7. Can you make a map/command with me?
Making videos for my channel already takes a lot of time and sadly I do not have time to work with all of you.
8. Where did you get your cape from?
I got it by attending Minecon 2016 in Anaheim, California.
9. What editing programs do you use to make your videos?
I use Bandicam to record my screen and Adobe Premiere to edit my videos. I record myself with a GoPro Hero4 Black Edition for facecam videos and vlogs or any other stuff that doesn't happen on the screen of my computer!
For my thumbnails and art I use Adobe Photoshop.
10. Can I use your commands for a video or a map?
Everyone can record videos with my commands as long as they give proper credits. If you want to make a video make sure to add my channel link and the command link from my website in the video description. If you're using one of my commands in a map that you will publicly release, make sure to let people know that I created the mechanics or things added by the command.
11. Where can I send you my fan art?
You can send me fan art by e-mailing it to theredeng@gmail.com . Make sure to include "FAN ART" in the email title.
12. I can't copy your command because it's cut on the edges. What do I have to do?
My website in not a responsive website so you might see some pages cut if you're accessing it from a device with a small monitor.
To fix this simply press CTRL and - (minus) to zoom out the page.
13. Why is there a deer freaking out at the bottom of this page?
Wait, what? Who let it in?
