I would have Washu's children. If I were female, that is. Or something.

Nope, your eyes do not deceive you. I'm actually making a post. Yes, it is true: I am still alive.

What have I been doing? Not a damned thing. I think I have spent about two hours total time on the computer in the last 3 or 4 wee…

Did a little more fiddling on the editor today. I redid the on-screen brush cursor display that shows what region of the map you are editing. IN the old version, I had a cursor that consisted of a single high-lighted tile that sorta followed the mouse cursor around, following the terrain surface. N…

Now that things have settled down a little, I've found more time for programming. I've been working on the old Golem3D heightmap editor as mentioned before, and I've finally gotten the editor working with the new blending engine. It actually works pretty well so far. When terrain texturing is sele…

Feel like the walking dead right now, I'm functioning on about 3 hours of sleep and trying to get some stuff done this morning. Thank goodness I don't drink anymore, or I would really be feeling like crap right now.

Went to the Tostitos block party over in Tempe. Every New Years they close off a big…

As per my promise to Deranged, I have been working on the Golem3D heightmap editor. It's coming along good, but I just wanted to pop in and say how much I really dislike UI work. You know, creating all the dialogs and widgets and what not. I'm working with Fox, and while it's pretty easy to use, I …

Doing some random googling for myself, I noticed that I have been cited by academia for, like, the first time ever. (I'm not the sort of person to commonly be referenced in anything remotely academic-sounding) Not for anything huge, but it's still kinda funny. Link. It's a German-language PDF on ra…

Started working on the new site. In the finest VertexNormalian tradition, I simply ripped off the CSS from the Accidental Site and munged around with the colors and stuff so that they are even uglier than before. Ain't I a genius? [grin] Hey, I never claimed to be a guru web designer.

Still need to …

Almost forgot to upload a nice cheerful Christmas-themed avatar with a happy Santa hat. Cheers!

Well, I've found a new free host for Golem. Sages gave me the hookup. The new site will be at http://repora.com/golem but he tells me that he's set up a sub-domain for me, http://golem.repora.com but it just hasn't propagated yet. Anyhoo...

Deranged talked me into picking up the Golem3D level editor…

There was this thing once, this... action. Activity. Something like that. It was called programming. Once upon a time, I used to do it. Yeah, those were the days. How I miss them...

Been keeping my eye on EDI's stuff, looks like he's starting to tackle something similar to my Golem3D engine. Good st…
