TWCOM now has a GMOD11 dedicated server - unfortunately, it’s private and access is restricted to a select few for now. Because Garry has not written any *nix binaries, you have to run Wine to run the server. Luckily, if set up right, it won’t take up much space, as it doesn’t emulate Windows, but rather run. It was mainly set up for personal use (experimenting with Lua).

Because I went through a lot of troubles, I’m sure I can whip up a nice wall o’ text over the next few days for some problems that I hardly saw answers to (if there even were any).

I’m not much of an artist when it comes to painting - digital, even. However, I had fun doing this for the first time. Blame the stray marks on my laptop touchpad.

Today on Memorial Day, our TWCOM server is getting a massive upgrade, and the server will be taken down at around 10:30am CDT. Up till then, you may see some more-than-usual server lag, as everything is being backed up.

The current server is lacking a few processor functions required for srcds, and is plainly unable to keep up with the demand of gdlib, Ventrilo, and Wordpress for a fast load.

You’ll enjoy the sweet server upgrade, and might see a counter-strike or GMod server in the future.

I finally got around to making the loop from “Stronger” by Kanye West, featuring Daft Punk.
The only difference from the one in “Stronger” is the thicker bass drum beats and a little more synthesizing action.

At any rate, enjoy!

Here’s the raw loop file in WAV format.

Finally upgraded the software transfer from my old, crappy programming, to WordPress, finished writing my own layout, added a few plugins (such as the auto-upgrade), and updated anti-spam with Akismet to the current version.

Enjoy!

New content for the Wii is available. The Wii Shop channel was updated to separate the directories into Virtual Console (VC), WiiWare, and Wii Channel. The WiiWare section has a few launch titles, including the infamous Flash game, Defend Your Castle and the WiiWare-exclusive Final Fantasy Crystal Cronicles game.

Coming soon (hopefully) is the WiiWare title, Everyone’s Pokemon Ranch. It’s sorta like the Pokemon Box and Hey You Pikachu! games mixed with the Mii channel. You store up to 1000 pokemon (at 999 pokemon, you supposedly get a Mew) in the game, and can play with them in various ways. The more pokemon you have and objectives you’ve done, the more you’re able to do in the game. Here are some screenshots [from gamesradar].

The Nintendo channel is more-so a game preview channel. You can watch gameplay videos, trailers, and commentary on your favorite Wii and DS games, as well as be able to download game demos to your DS via the Wii to DS download service built in.
