A copy of a copy
I finally got shader instancing working... took me long enough. This really helped me solidfy a few things, shaders for example. I am really excited about hardware instancing, too bad I dont have the 600 to shell out for a card that supports VS3.0. I figure might as well wait for longhorn to come o…

Odd Findings
I recently got 3d studios 7, what a great program. Anways I was following the tutorial at tutorialized on how to create a car tire rim, it turned out pretty well (for a programmer xD).

Microsoft has a Text to voiceAPI. I think it could be keen, if the voices could be saved as wav. Then manipulated with directSound, which allows you to add sound effects like echo, gargle and so forth, ultimately which could mean realtime dy…

Hulk has amazing physics, for the first hour or so I was simply blown away. The first few missions of Hulk seemed to be too unfocused. There is one part of the game wh…
