2008-05-26 18:36:00 A picture better be worth 1000 words Yes I am still alive. I’m currently wrapping up my years in college so I will not be posting much until autumn time I guess, though my exams finish mid-June so maybe a bit before.

Is this thing on?
2008-03-30 22:47:00 Its been a while but here I am again. The reason for the long wait for this update is a simple one, it’s because I was working on something and wanted something to show before posting about it. Well that was going to the be the original reason anyway. What actually happened was I spent so ... More About: Games , Thing

2008-03-16 22:27:00 Yes thats right, the rewrite is done (- scripting).

Refactoring
2008-03-10 21:58:00 Refactoring is the process by which you spend a lot of time looking at your code and saying, “well this is rather badly put together maybe I should just change this… uh… crap no nothing works :@”. It is also the current process I am going through with the game engine (formally called SharpNabla) FallenGE. ... More About: Games

Codename
2008-02-26 21:58:00 I have decided to rename the project/engine because SharpNabla is quite long and doesn’t sound that good. The new name is so much better fits well, so what is it well put simply the project is now called Fallen. What’s new? Since my last post I have done a huge amount of work on the engine and ...

2008-02-21 19:24:00 Nothings been posted for a few days, though I have been hard at work. Having said that I have come to realize that there is a bug with delta timing, that for now, I can’t be bothered to fix. For those that don’t know delta time is the time it takes to do something in ... More About: Games , Playground

Sprites
2008-02-19 00:15:00 A basic implementation of sprites is now done. They currently have a few physics attributes, just enough to keep me happy, so they can collide with the world and react accordingly. I didn’t really play on having support for physics to be honest but using vectors made things painless and it just kinda fell ... More About: Games

Animation
2008-02-17 22:06:00 I finally sat down and got the basis for animation done. This involves being able to draw parts of textures as well as use of high resolution timers. Drawing part of an image is simple, you simply need to calculate the ratio of the coords. So if your texture is 128 x 128 and you ... More About: Animation , Games

2008-02-08 21:40:00 After positing the picture viewer I noticed a bug in the code which wouldn’t allow you to have more than one image, well thats now sorted (IntPtr problem) so YA!
