That song was Chanel Live's Sex For the Sport. If you liked that let me tell you, there are a LOT of old great hip-hop songs. Today, I typed up a design document for my game...you know the one the Lunatek Engine is supposed to be used in. Its nowhere near complete, but I decided to give all you wonderful people a look. Normally, I'd force you to download it, but I found this wicked thing called ScribD, which is like Youtube for businessmen lol.
Well its finally the end of the week, meaning its time to relax and play Doom 3. This week was hell. I had to rush a Biology project on Wednesday and Thursday night, but hey, it turned out pretty decent so HA! I haven't made any progress on my previous suggestion, instead I decided to delay that for a while and create a game engine for my personal use, using the knowledge I have gathered over the years.I want to write my own physics engine and use openAL and openGL. I also got a new graphics card. Its a halfway decent Chaintech Nvidia GeForce FX 5200, 256 MB 128 bit card. If it really works as well and has half the features it claims it does on the back of the box, then I'm set for the next 2.5 years. So I'm in a pretty good mood. I'll set up the card tomorrow.
Well, I'm still fairly new to blogging, but I figured I should talk about C++(since I have nothing else to write).
*sigh*
C++ is a programming language. Nuff said.
Okay, I'll try and be more specific than that. C++ is an object oriented, general purpose programming language created by Dr. Bjarne Stroustrup in the early 1980s at Bell Labs. It supports features such as operator overloading, preprocessors, templates, encapsulation and inheritance.
So how does all of this mean remotely anything a man addicted to Pepsi?
Well, as an ardent follower of video games, I should point out that C++ is general purpose, for all the right reasons. C++ can be used to program everything, from operating systems to video games.(I really learnt it for the second reason).
Well, all that aside, Christmas is coming up really fast. I actually hope that this holiday drags along, as when I return to the loop in January, its gonna be nothing but work and sex. Ermm, well mostly work.
This Christmas, I plan to visit friends and family and brush up on my C++, and actually start a useful project. My idea was a COM control to replace Flash.
We all know Flash is good for 2d stuff, and 3d can be faked, but Shockwave is sorta slow and not used much. My idea was to create a COM control based off the Irrlicht Engine(http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net) and openAL. This allows graphics and audio to execute as a control inside a webpage. I was planning to use Python as a scripting language to control all this. I haven't come up with a name yet though, so for now I'll call it Cerberus. Imagine:
Oh well. Oh yeah, Lunatek is the name of my company. It currently has 3 employees. We mostly work on ...nothing. Oh well.
