I pretty much ran out of posts when the local shop ran out of energy drinks. Now, the last exams of my school career and exodus to university lay on the horizon. In the next couple of weeks though, I’ll hopefully have enough time to get back into a routine of posting stuff. I’ve been working on a load of things recently.

First of all: new programming project. Trench Breakthrough: Ypres is coming back once again, and I’m rolling my own engine in Javascript, using the new features which HTML5 and related specs (basically WebGL) have made possible. I’ve been working on this for a few months now – hopefully this’ll be big enough to have some posts of its own soon

Secondly, banterous.co.uk expansion, including the new domain “bantero.us“, thanks to webhead. So far it’s been a site for sharing demos, but soon it will be a general DP:PB2 utility site, hosting demos in addition to a map database and other tools which were once provided by sk89q’s Digital Paint Resource site. The reference sections of that site will be replaced by the wiki which webhead is currently developing on the banterous hosting. f3l1x, the author of some awesome server tools is also helping out. And another developer called Payl has developed a banterous demo downloader

I’ve also been trying to finish Cold War City for release, having done another 3 betas or so.

Hell, maybe I’ll even put some content up here that is actually useful for once instead of just a brain dump. You never know

You can have a look around at www.banterous.co.uk – try not to break anything

If you’re interested in having a look at the PHP library internals, I’ll probably be releasing them some time under the GPL.
