No really, it's just a bunch of blocks.

Anyone have experience texturing these bitches voxels? I have no idea what I'm doing. ¯\(°_o)/¯

Famitracker Tutorial Part One

(Embedded Video)

Been a while.

Nothing good has actually happened since last time. Not everything is -bad- but nothing incredibly good.

So my aunt had been rushed to the hospital 2-3 weeks back - she might have had a mini-stroke. She has gotten weaker, and while two sundays ago she wasn't expected …

Advice sought

Right. I AM COMMITTED TO THIS. Tomorrow, I want to make my first narrated video, the first in a series about Famitracker and how to use it, as promised.

Now I need some advice. Nothing to do with the actual -content- of the video, I know what I'm going to …

New (mediocre) employment! :D

Posted by TDOT on Oct. 25, 2012, 8:50 a.m.

In a move of pure spite and anger I quit my job as assistant manager at the theatre. The pay was just so laughable for the amount of work they required out of us that it just wasn’t feasible anymore. That added onto the fact that they REFUSE to offer …

Concourse

This is the first track we made for Rez and luda's S4D entry, Carny Death Peddlers. Our original thought was to make a Thriller-esqu soundtrack, full of disco beats and synth brass. As the game developed, though, the soundtrack started morphing into something heavier and this song no …

Grumble, grumble

It is time once again for me to express my immense dissatisfaction with the state of the world of computer science. This time, I am doing so at midnight after a long day, which is bound to make the rant more interesting (and much less coherent).

I could easily argue …

One O' Dem Dere Bloggy Dealies

My activity on 64 Digits can be summed as follows-

Hi guys, my name's Sheppard!

(He was never seen again.)

Don't you love it when people do that at communities?

Anyway, I found myself entrapped in a dungeon of things-to-do-ness (spent a couple weeks as an archaeologist, went on …

Oh look, another chiptune

Take a listen to this, then read the rest of the blog:

Well, I'm back in Windows XP again. Managed to install it by creating a slipstreamed disc with SP2 and SP3 included.

That was fun. Had to use VirtualBox in Ubuntu to install XP so I could install …
