2 Weeks?!?!?!?

Remind me to *NEVER* go two weeks again without making a post. Sorry 'bout that y'all. Hopefully I didn't make any of you cry. If I did, go blow your snortle chubbles and their asdin portastic bling-lings and get off my back (that reminds me, anyone remember that song by George Michael with all the monkeys on all the backs?).

I got half a game engine waiting for its 'Almighty UI', any chance we can get this show on the road? ;)

I decided to skip this part and I'm using Axiom now. It's doing complex things a lost faster than I was able to get this loop to spin a mesh

Hey Rev. I hope Axiom works out for you (send me a line and let me know how well it works for you). It's probably better in the long run. I am far from being a game developer. I'm just really starting to do game development but I figure my reverse/normal engineering skills would bring things to the table that aren't present in other articles.

I also haven't had nearly the amount of time devoted to these articles as I should with how busy it's been. Hopefully by the time you drop back by in the future, some major progress has been made.

Once again, I would *love* to hear from you on how well Axiom works. I've been hearing a lot about it but haven't been able to devote the time necessary to really research it. Sorry for the let down. And thanks for the encouragement along the way (even though I did slack off a lot more than I should have ;)).

Yeah... I wasn't poo pooing the article... it certainly get me interested and give me ideas and examples for other things like Command interpreters and the like...

But I realized I'm looking for something a little more.. done already. =)

I'll let you know how axiom works out. Looks great though.

# re: 2 Weeks?!?!?!? 5/3/2004 5:10 PM Jason Olson

Well, don't worry Rev, that's not how it came off :). Yeah, already done is a plus. The articles are being written as I continue development and I'm starting to think that finishing the entire game and then going back to write the articles would be a good thing. The biggest factor is that refactoring becomes incredibly difficult if you have to change code and several articles.

Good luck w/ Axiom :~).
