In my first attempt to get into UT mapping, I thought I'd convert a familar favorite of mine to the engine and give it a new style of my own. Obviously, that favorite was 2fort (Two Fortresses) from TFC. I was making good progress and probably would have finished if it weren't for a comment I read in PCG about everybody making 2fort over again in UT. I never thought to look if someone had ...

In my first attempt to get into UT mapping, I thought I'd convert a familar favorite of mine to the engine and give it a new style of my own. Obviously, that favorite was 2fort (Two Fortresses) from TFC. I was making good progress and probably would have finished if it weren't for a comment I read in PCG about everybody making 2fort over again in UT. I never thought to look if someone had already done it, but I stopped working on it nonetheless. But here it is at about 40% completion. The bridge, battlements, and battlement respawns are all done. The flag has been placed in the little entry area for testing. I spent a lot of time doing the bot pathing, so that works really well, except if they go in the water with the flag (didn't do a water exit). And like I'd wanted, the style is sorta unique while maintaining the layout closely.

This was originally a concoction made from a drum-sample loop that later just went horribly wrong. It's a kind of techno-rock with retarded vocals from me and some sort of annoying whistle.

This screensaver does just what it implies; it downloads doppler images from weather.com and then animates them fullscreen. It'll check for newer images at a user-definable rate. Many other options are available, too. I lost interest in programming this before I added support for different locations' doppler, thus it only does Virginia. There's ...

This screensaver does just what it implies; it downloads doppler images from weather.com and then animates them fullscreen. It'll check for newer images at a user-definable rate. Many other options are available, too. I lost interest in programming this before I added support for different locations' doppler, thus it only does Virginia. There's some bugs here and there, too, particularly the one mentioned in the other screensaver. It's a good app if you live in VA and want to quickly check the doppler. Press H for help.

These are a couple of missions I did back in 2002, but never officially released. They use a custom terrain based off of the standard GI1 (Grass Island) terrain, hence my version is called GiS. There's not really any story to these two missions (none that I can remember anyways). I was just interested in creating some intense helicopter and jungle combat scenarios, and I think it shows.

These are a couple of missions I did back in 2002, but never officially released. They use a custom terrain based off of the standard GI1 (Grass Island) terrain, hence my version is called GiS. There's not really any story to these two missions (none that I can remember anyways). I was just interested in creating some intense helicopter and jungle combat scenarios, and I think it shows. At the time, I was certainly planning to make some missions in between these two, but this is all that got done. However, they're both well-polished regardless.

In the first mission (Insertion), you start in the middle of a firefight, fleeing by chopper. While en route to a nearby firebase, you'll have to deal with an array of difficult threats. The second mission (Alamo) takes place in the firebase, where it is being attacked at night from all sides. These missions are fairly difficult; however, they're also short, so you'll be able to work out a strategy without too much replaying. Cooperative play is supported, but not specifically balanced for.

This was an alternate version of Revealing Bounds that was going to be an intro for Terra Instabile. It's only the first part of the original track that fades into Terra Instabile and is generally considered by me to be complete.

This was going to be a tie-in or a theme for some gay, medieval-fantasy story that my friends were writing, but they lost interest and so did I. It started out really well, though. I envisioned a scene in a foundry where men are making the ultimate sword. Then a heavy drum track comes in and the sword is used in battle by the hero. The last part was supposed to be when the hero comes back ...

This was going to be a tie-in or a theme for some gay, medieval-fantasy story that my friends were writing, but they lost interest and so did I. It started out really well, though. I envisioned a scene in a foundry where men are making the ultimate sword. Then a heavy drum track comes in and the sword is used in battle by the hero. The last part was supposed to be when the hero comes back victorious on the bridge over the moat; I kinda pictured the scene from First Knight there. The only part that really worked was the first one, though. Still one of my own favorite pieces, though.

In my senior year of high school, I had set a goal to take over the school's video news program and make it not suck. People rightfully stepped aside as I owned the project.

In my senior year of high school, I had set a goal to take over the school's video news program and make it not suck. People rightfully stepped aside as I owned the project. This first episode of the second semester of that year was almost completely edited by me. I had even managed to slip in an NIN track called "Burn" for the intro sequence. This part took an especially long time to do since the school only had an iMac for video editing (god damn you, Macs, with your single mouse buttons!). The actual news portion is pretty bland, but the "entertainment special" is rather funny. It features the poetic stylings of the oft-mentioned Gandalf the Cock. The credit music was not my idea. When I was getting close to completing this episode, people started weighing in with their two cents and coerced me into using "black music". I'm not being particularly racist here, as all the black people did indeed want it. However, as a whole, I'd accomplished my goal of making NNN not suck.

This actually isn't a dance track at all, but more of an easy-listening chill...thing. I stopped working on it when I couldn't find a good melody to layer on top of what was a well-built beginning including little vocals done by myself.

Bitwise Operations is an app I created to assist in programming, particularly when using API function calls. As you may or may not know, many Windows API functions return or have parameters that are merely binary. The first byte might contain a virtual keycode while the next could hold the state of the key modifiers in single bits. Even if you know how to use bitwise operators and what bits hold which information, it's hard to visualize the bits and convert them to the required hexadecimal or decimal number formats. This program allows you to convert between binary, hex, and decimal by allowing you to toggle each bit in 4 bytes or enter the number in the decimal and hex boxes. Then, through the use of my carefully crafted GUI, it's easy to take numbers you've entered and come up with a formula for extracting certain bits from function returns.

In the example screenshot, I have copied the decimal return from a function. Then, since I know that the data I'm looking for is in the third byte only, I show how to use the bitwise in hex to return only that byte and divide out the lower bytes. Then the final box shows the output of 30. There's also an option for using Or bitwise operations, but I haven't found a use for that yet.

The way you code bitwise operations in VB6 is to take the return and binary compare it to the value after the And operator, like this: (ret And &HFF0000)
If you want a bit, series of bits, or byte that is higher than the first bit, then you want to then divide by the lowest bit you have included in the last part, which would be like so: ret = ((ret And &HFF0000) / &H10000)

Hopefully, intermediate to advanced VB programmers like myself will find this program useful. It certainly saves much time doing calculations and conversions.
