Not too terribly much going on here. Getting SR3 moved over to a SVN setup instead of CVS. Hope to get it up soon, just been busy. Ran into some issues with Sourceforge's scripts. Also been practicing my pinstriping a bit still, having fun. Got my '50 running, and hope to get it on the road soon. Will report back later with some thoughts on shit.
Sorry, this is just weird.
Its been a bit since I posted last, I know.
Last weekend, I went to Kansas City with Karen for a friend of her's graduation. Was a nice relaxing weekend. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Also, I've started playing Planeshift, a free opensource 3d MMORPG. Its kinda fun. If you play, and run into a guy named Ronson, that's me. Yes, I named myself after a brand of lighters because Hellmark had been taken… Thieving bastards… I hope that in the character wipe thats coming, I'll be able to snag Hellmark.
Other than that, been just working on different shit. Pretty boring here.
Yeah, you heard me right. For the first time since the NES, I've wanted a Nintendo console. Even the name is growing on me (although I prefer Revolution to Wii). Plus with people believing that it will be $199 and even Merril Lynch is saying that's most likely cost, as well as their developers believing that.
Hell is also freezing over, with Sony and Microsoft suggesting people buy the Wii
While, we have an idea now of how the Wii's controllers work, Big N has also said that there is other stuff in store for later. Could it be 3d projection as some suggest? Also it is believed that the Wii will have a PPU (physics processing unit) based on a slip by Konami
Ok, you heard it here, 5th, or something like that…
London, zis is nighthawk, can you 'ear me?
Yeah I know that I've not posted much lately.
New things that have happened.
First up, last week I switched SR3 over from CVS to SVN at Source Forge. Reason for this is because CVS was a pain in the ass, and was constantly having server issues where it was down. Not good. Also on SR3, we've had some people helping out. one guy is working on a plugin to export from blender. Yay! Also, another guy has been helping improve stuff with OpenGL, by adding in things such as Antialaising. Plus, hopefully, next release will include versions for OSX and Linux as well, instead of just telling people its possible and having them roll their own.
For gaming, I played and beat Final fantasy Mystic Quest. Was a really short game, I beat it in the last two evenings, but besides that it was fun and I really dont know why people rag on it so much. Also, another reason to lust for the Wii: Sengoku Action. For those not familiar with it, since its received extremely little press, its a branch of the Koei series Dynasty Warriors, based on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but looks to be set in Japan during the same period. Still, running around, killing tons of people with swords is fun!
Well, massive storm is coming through, probably will lose power and such, so I'll be going. Talk later.
