Life and Code

Well I am on my way to the family reunion. Rented a car and hit the road, stop 1 visiting family in Stone Mountain, GA. Got here yesterday after my flight, took the suggestion to stay the night since I was falling asleep on the couch and have mountain driving ahead of me. My uncle treated me to a pretty cool restaurant down here called ‘Nava’, good food, good times. Kinda ready to hit the road. Will post more and add pics as the trip progresses.

I have finally moved in to my new apartment. It is awesome, or will be after I unpack. I am loving the space I have there, the staff is nice and all in all it is the kinda place I think I could enjoy living in. The move was crazy as all moves are, but it is over.

This weekend, was one of celebration for many reasons. Independence/freedom was definitely the bigger of the two ideas worthy of celebration. But my small win was finally integrating the Newton dynamics library with the Irrlicht 3D engine.

The libraries do integrate pretty well, the only issues I had were with some of the subtleties. In general, it is simply a matter of figuring out how to translate between Newton and Irrlicht’s matrices. This is actually accomplished very easily with a memory copy. I fought improper placement of the x, y, z values but once I figured out where they should be, the libraries made the problems minimal.

Well I messed this up, now it is back. I deleted the database by accident.
