Orbiter

Orbiter - A free space flight simulator

as the link says this is a SPACE flight sim. I will warn you now that this is very hard and I can not get into orbit without autopilot. The thing that I find fun is downloading ad-ons, some of which make the game much easer to play. The best place to go for ad-ons is most definitely the orbit hanger, some mods that I recommend an the PEG autopilot to get ya in orbit, the firefly jumbo for the coolest ship in the verse, the delta glider the most advanced ship in the verse, and more to come in later posts.

Anyway here are some screens just for fun (if they are copy righted someone comment and they will be then down right away)

line rider



InXile - The Official Home of Line Rider

mmmmmmk many of you probably already knew about this site but o well. This is a "toy" but many call it a game, the object is to have fun by drawing tracks for a stick figure to sled on. Although this may seem kinda dumb it is actually really fun. There are videos in the movie section that show really sweet tracks.

CnC mod site

Command & Conquer Files - C&C Generals Index

I love CnC generals and have made CnC Den my main mod site. The thing that I have found is that this is better. The reason that I think this is that this site has different mods so a mod here would not be at the den and one at the den might not be here. If by any chance you do not have CnC generals I highly recommend it.

Blender

Blender is a app that I have had on my system for years and have been trying to learn for just as long. I have found a good tut but I had just kept giveing up on it, I have not even gotten through the modeling part. This all changed a couple days ago (I hope) when I discovered a file called modeling.blend in the recent documents menu of blender. This file turned out to be the product of what I had done previously. I took that and found the place where I had stopped on the tut and began working from there. when I started I had a person with no feet and no hat now he has both. The URL is http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Blender_3D:_Noob_to_Pro

why the iPhone will sell

The iPhone released by apple on Tuesday the 9 fixes some of the major problems in not only smart phones but all phones. Until around a week before Christmas (when it got stolen) I had a RAZOR, this was a great phone but there was one problem, it was very complicated. For example contacts were hard to enter and it took me a read or two of the manual to figure out how to use the speaker phone. I also tried to use the hold function but I could not figure out how to switch between people. The RAZOR is also supposed to let you sink your contacts but I needed a mac (lucky for me I have one) and it had to use blue tooth and I had to re-pair the thing every time it got near another phone.

    Anyway you get the idea, the iPhone just looks so easy to use and there seems to be such good integration with the network which means things that the phones software should be able to do (like voice mail) are done by the phones software. And the thing can also switch to a wi-fi network for the Internet when available instead of using EDGE or EV-DO all the time. The one question I have is how much will using the mobile web cost.

a new chat

HomePage in Peekko Chat

Have any of you herd of chatsum? It you are not familiar withe it it is a plugin for firefox (flock'd has it to for flock here) that lets you chat withe the people on the same page as you. I love this idea but when I bring up the sidebar it takes a really long time to load because the sidebar is a little web page. Now this is not a link to chatsum but rather one to Peekko which uses irc so you do not have to sign up and it is very fast. This sounds like a grate plugin but it never can connect for me. If any of you have or will try it tell me if it works. mmmkaaay

As for how I found this little tool it was from another blog and I thought that I may give that blog credit the blog is here http://killeroid.wordpress.com/

How bout a mod?


http://forums.relicnews.com/showthread.php?t=73876&page=1&pp=15

This is a page I found of the relic forms, the point is to teach basic HW2 modding bu making the "Keepers" a playable race. Some of you that play HW2 may have the EX mod which does the same thing, this is better after all the mother ship for the keepers is this

instead of that carrier with worts in EX.

When I did this mod there were some problems with the spelling of stuff, the main thing is that you have to be careful with CAPS because some of the examples have them while the file or folder that those examples are referring to does not. The other problem was that HardED would keep crashing to solve this I looked on the rest of the thread and found a link to this which I haven't tried yet but it is worth a try.
