Blast from some kind of past!
Wednesday, May 21st, 2008Found an old CD today (March 2000!) which contains all my old games in lovely open sourceness. Now I’ve got a lot of these games already in the Game section but they were saved as executables in TGF and can be a bit buggy. When I get round to it I’ll make MMF2 executables, rapture!
So very very old.
Oh yea and I am working on Tormi still, but that’s all secret like.
Mario Kart code
Saturday, May 17th, 2008Finally beat the single player game so I’m all over multiplayer! My friend code is 4253-3807-7863. Leave your code in the comments or email if you want to keep it privates liek.
Oh machines
Saturday, May 17th, 20082ghz C2D iMac renders an 1800kbps H.264 DVD at 30fps
1.5ghz G4 PowerBook renders an 1800kbps H.264 DVD at 8fps (or 3 in low power mode)

Thus ends an exhaustive benchmark for people looking to upgrade to last years iMac from a Rev D 12″ PowerBook. Been punishing my PowerBook by rendering series 1 of the Office, 75% done and its only been 24 hours.
Hossybug
Thursday, May 15th, 2008It’s a couple of weeks off still but I’ve been sorting out my PSP for my hospital visit. Apparently it can take up to 5 hours to see the consultant! I can get my PSP battery to last about 6 hours so it should last the wait.

Extra points for those who’ve seen that background before!
Basically he’s trying to find out more about my cubital tunnel. It’s fading slowly now but I’m to have some nerve conduction test, which sounds lovely. They insert some kind of electric bit into muscles and such and send currents down. It’s ruddy silly how (with the NHS) your GP will send you to hospital but by the time you get an appointment everything is okay! Bupa is now on my Christmas list.
Shock shock horror.
Back part 2.

After a few weeks off I’ve got back to work on Tormi. Not completely cured of my RSI but it’s well enough to get stuck back into work. At the mo I’m just removing a few bugs and replacing some old areas (did Tsol’s Temple run well for any of you testers?). Sorry for the dark lighting in that shot, it was still fading in.
And Mario Kart Wii is awesome. Good god I’m addicted to the online multiplayer.
Also I kinda hid away the Sam OST for reasons unknown. But it’s back. (zipped) I really enjoyed making Sam… Signed a release form for some French magazine publisher who want to put it in a couple of upcoming mags too, haven’t had to do this for a few months!
