New Website

First things first. I have finished up my glow demo by adding a touch of realism to the scene. You will notice the backdrop has been added as well as refracted glass and a shiny material for the body. I'm quite happy with the overall effect and I'm still achieving reasonable frame rates. [smile] I get ~56 fps on a 1.3 ghz intel 4 with an nVidia 5200 and that's with 6 complete blur passes. In a way this sucks because I just got my wife a 3 ghz Dell with some Intel Media onboard chip and it blows my frame rate out of the water. [rolleyes] She seems quite happy about that for some reason.

Second things second. I have completed my website. It is one fully dynamic php/mysql driven, rip roaring, yada yada. Basically it's got a control panel so I can easily add more topics and edit or delete existing ones. You can add comments and there are smilies that work exactly the same as gamedev's. Basically I ripped off Humus's website template and layout then added my own feel and style. Damn that guy's got a lot of cool stuff over there! I'd appreciate it if you'd take the time to check out my new site. www.neilkemp.us - The link will redirect you to the site until I can get around to setting it as a subdomain on my server. Let me know what you think either here or there or whatever. [smile]

I'm assuming the driver is controlling it via remote control? [smile]

Yeaahhh it's a remote controlled 3D flying car. Uh hu. Also notice the super cool engines with allow it to stay stationary over extended periods of time. Every kid will want one!

haha...

So it won't do too well when the aliens invade with remote control wave cancelers and make all the ships fall to the ground.

Great job, Neil.
