Yes, well…. the title explains it all. Normally I’m tweeting several times a day and a new blog post came out every few days. So… “what’s been keeping you?” I hear you ask. Well, many things really
First of all, the site. For all of those who are new visitors to the site, this is version 4 of theblahman.net. This was released earlier this month, and I’m really proud of it! Took about a month or so of designing, coding and testing. Mad props goes to Rogie King, you are a champion! And your new footer is to die for!
Well, what else? I picked up modelling for Half-Life 2. I used to map but I got kinda bored of it, so I’ve moved onto modelling instead! What can I say about modelling… it’s quite challenging, but I enjoy it. I’ve started off making a Stop sign and so far it’s…. well, alright. I made the model exactly the same size as it would be in real life, down to the millimetre! In-game it turned out perfect, so I was happy. What I wasn’t happy about however, was the texture. Now, I’m sure I got my .vmt right, but I’ll have to check with friends. Stop signs generally don’t have the Purple/Black checkerbox on them… at least they don’t in Australia! My other problem is the physbox. I followed an awesome tutorial (iwannamap) by Generalvivi but I swear I did it right
What else can I use as an excuse? Oh yeah! School! And that’s enough talk about school.
And thus concludes my rant on August, my favourite month of the year.
