V5I: Camera Animation Save and Load
Friday, May 12th, 2006This one caught me out by being more difficult to get working than I expected when I volunteered myself to write it… Anyway a pair of little scripts savecameradata.py and loadcameradata.py hopefully they will make a certain amount of sense but given the late hour I’m not going to explain them now. Available in a […]

Ten Years at the Web Face
Saturday, May 6th, 2006I realised something a little frightening earlier its ten years ago this month I started the course that changed me from an engineer into a web developer.

Sunset Pictures
Friday, May 5th, 2006This first picture was my entry in the Renderosity Vue forum’s April challenge. The second was the first version of it I did. Pretty much the same scene but the change to the lighting and atmosphere really changes the final image. Looking at them side by side I’m not sure which one I prefer. Both […]

Hexed?
Monday, May 1st, 2006I started to get to grips with Hex2 yesterday. Certainly easier to work with than Amapi was but I’d still rather be using 3ds Max if I had the money. The biggest annoyance is the frequency with which it crashes. While attempting the first two tutorials it crashed seven times, twice locking the computer. It […]

Eight of the spheres in the metablob were […]

I spent the first half of the day resolving all those issues from Friday (Too many Ideas: Todays a Lemon and I’d like my Money […]
