Hello 4.5, hello ThoughtScore.

KDE 4.5 is out! (Yes, I am a little late) I was really happy to have contributed just that little bit to this release and hopefully that trend continues. Just wanted to say how much I appreciated this DE and to congratulate and thank everybody for their hard work. Something else that could be interesting [...]

Rigging a machine.

Things have been going absurdly slow lately. No commits to WIPUP. No new ThoughtScore models (though a few more seconds of video have been added). Nothing open-source related (except for trying out the Ubuntu beta1 on a box). Even schoolwork has slowed. Because I fully emphathise that people with a grip of things wouldn’t give [...]

Blender Model Repository system upgraded

Today I just wanted to say that I finally got around to upgrading the system behind the Blender Model Repository. The BMR runs on the Xoops CMS and I can’t say it’s the best CMS I’ve seen. It’s a good many versions out of date and has been in need of an upgrade for quite [...]

Blender 2.5 Features Video

Hello everybody, I’m back from my 5 day jungle trek and I’m just catching up on what I’ve missed throughout the week. I was initially going to award you all with a post about the trek itself, but it turns out Jonathan Williamson from Montage Studio (the very same who does the Blender screencasts and [...]

ThoughtStall

The ThoughtScore project is another gypsy on my to-do list along with the BMR. It seems as though the world of 3D graphics and I are drifting slowly apart. It’ll be such a pity to let it go, so I want to make a serious effort and continue the amazing progress I once had on [...]

The Blender Model Repository and BlenderNation: open-source merger?

As some might know, Blender is an open-source 3D content creation application – it’s cross-platform, a pioneer in the free 3D application market, and I use it. Not only do I use it, love it, and hang out in the #blenderchat IRC channel on freenode, I host the Blender Model Repository, taking over from Andrew [...]

Poetry Anthology Competition Presentation

I’m taking a bit of a break from my computer, Gentoo, KDE, etc related articles yet again to talk a bit about the vast array of creative and multimedia related creations I produce once in a while. Seeing as you guys must be bored out of your minds from the thumbnails I’ve released of the [...]

Blender 3D: Architecture, Buildings and Scenery – Review

I recently received a book on Blender 3D architecture, Buildings and Scenery from the folks over at Packt Publishing. The author is Allan Brito, those who frequent BlenderNation might have heard his name a few times. I must say, it’s a good book, and I would have no trouble recommending it to folks interested in [...]

Autodesk acquires Softimage

As we all learnt from business class, nobody likes a monopoly. The government doesn’t like them, the consumers don’t like them, and well, the employees of the company with any sense of righteousness would not like their work either. Most famous monopoly debacle of technology? Microsoft. M$. The dicussion starts to die down when it gets [...]

Glow Tests

Some schancy schmatts with the nodes in Blender showing tests for the shuttle launch scene in The ThoughtScore Project: …and another version with shameless and blatant advertising scrawled all over it: More cool stuff and updates and small previews and other jazz to come.

ThoughtScore Updated!

BLENDER So, what are you waiting for? Get it now and check out the new features. The two most stunning features I’ll [...]

Microsoft and Blender – an open-source initiative?

Useful information stuff: 70-642 is one of the most complicated test in 642-642 series, after 642-825 and 642-845 and hence a 70-646 professional cannot attempt it without having a EX0-101 or at least a 642-552 to his credit. Sometime on May 13th, 2008, Blendernation published an article on Microsoft emails Blender About File Format Support. [...]
