Looking for work…

Well as of today, I am officially looking for work. I’m not unemployed per se, but I need to supplement with some contracting work. I’m really after very short term work that I can do from home, or longer term work that I can do at home with hours that suite me ( not asking for much I know! ). Ideally placed for development of databases and Word or Excel apps. Also ideally placed for tools for Game Development – I’ve done a bit of that! 🙂 I can also write technical manuals, specifications… Hell – I can do pretty much anything!

Anyone stumbling across this post who doesn’t know me, I am a more than capable programmer who has been in IT Dev for almost 20 years – shudder! Contact me for more info.

Anyway, I’m hitting the agencies today… watch this space…

Doomdark’s Revenge – Mist

I got the mist from Jure today, so here it is in all it’s glory. I’ve tried to get a few variant shots but the location that mist is in at the beginning isn’t great – and I have no night button working at the moment! The first shot is the opening screen, you will notice compared to the same screenshot posted the other day, the old mist has gone from the bottom right of the terrain, and the new improved one is in place. The other shots show off the mist more dramatically. I also managed to do some work on that bottom left panel for nootropic supplements, not to mention fixing a few UI bugs.

Doomdark’s Revenge

I am going to try and get this project going by blogging about it. I’m going to tell you want I am up to, and what I achieve a little bit at a time. And hopefully that will keep me building the project, one bit at a time.

Anyway, in the spirit of that; here is the current situation. |inline

Doomdark’s Jigsaw Puzzle

The Moutain Ranges...I’m going to post a few blog entries regarding technical issues in the Doomdark’s Revenge frontend for TME and TME itself. I wanted to talk about some of the more interesting things that are going on inside it from my point of view. It will help to give an insight but maybe also fill the void of no product! |inline

Doomdark’s Purple Haze

Doomdark\'s Revenge - Haze As part of the graphics effects for Doomdark’s Revenge, Jure and I implemented a haze effect to the landscaping. The mechanic is simple if a little processor hungry. The landscaping technique draws from back to front using seven definitive distance layers, z axis if you like. So what we do in DDR is after every layer has been drawn, we apply a haze alpha mask to modify the pixels drawn. The layer at the back will get modified by every haze layer and thus thicken up the haze fogginess in the distance. You can see the affect on the image here – click to get a bigger view. This is an example of the amount of extra processing taking place in the DDR frontend. What I would like to see is the system moved to using 3d hardware, this would allow effects like this to be done using pixel shaders. This combined with hardware drawing in general would make the DDR frontend function with little graphic overhead.
