Rei's back

Wow, you made a thread for me when I went missing, Mike? I feel so honored! The delay was simple: due to inspiration from posting on this forum, I went to work on a neural simulation. It proved so successful that I decided to ditch my physical form, and have been residing in my PC ever since.Oh, the delay? In my absense, my partner installed Windows, and reformatted me. Thank YHVH for the backup....(Ok, the truth is a bit less glamorous; I got burned out of social interaction from Wikipedia. I ended up spending my time programming 3d engines and the like, until finally being dragged back into chat by my guild on Archmage and my rediscovery of Slashdot. ).

Nono I work in a hospital on brain imaging software. I write 3d engines and the like for fun.Of course, since I've gotten social again, my last engine has idled (it's a fractal-tesselating voxel-based 3d engine; I was in the process of trying to add in a higher level piece of hidden surface calculation to limit the number of needed tesselations.)

Oooh, neat. Turn-based like Rogue, or semi-turn based (or realtime) like X-com? How does it compare to, say, Falcon's Eye? It's a game which is graphics put to Nethack, which is itself an advanced (really advanced!) version of Rogue.This message has been edited by Rei, 09-12-2004 08:08 PM
