Sometimes I really hate blender.

I’ve been tooling around in blender for a while, trying to get some ideas out. When I went to render from a top down perspective I kept getting a white plane that didn’t exist in the scene itself. After much gnashing of teeth I figured out that you can shorten the camera clipping plane to the point where it doesn’t render the blasted plane anymore. Hooray!

With the plane:

Without:

Only took me five hours to figure this out .

Rescue!

First release of my silly little chopper game. Nothing special needed to run it other than a DirectX 9 capable video card.

Rescue! version 1.0

Startup/menu screen.

Getting shot at.

On fire.

Bugger all, that wasn’t fun.

Due to some screwups on both ends, I lost all the data on the webserver. Oopsy. Got most of it all back up and running but since wpg2 was set to use tags, not actual image links, I can’t restore some of the older picture posts and have just removed them. Google’s cache didn’t help at all! I also need to retweak the theme, the default just annoys me.

It’s a panorama, so it will take a while to load.

And it’s not a flower!

It’s a bolt on a bridge over vasacreek. Kinda funny how real simple things make great photos in the right light.

Panorama album is uploaded.

The panorama

album is ready to rock. I swear I still have a few more panoramas hiding somewhere. That’s the problem with being super disorganized.

This is the blog/gallery for my photos. Not sure exactly what I’ll do with it but it’s up and running so yay!

One of my favorite photos, and I just noticed I have dupes of just about everything. Hooray gallery.
