Maya Modelingposted on 09/05/2008

So the last week I've been playing around with Maya to improve my modeling skills, check out this Temple created in Maya and exported to Unreal Engine 3.0

Hopefully with a little more work I'm going to add this example to my portfolio.

cp_yeehaw_beta Releasedposted on 29/04/2008

I'm releasing a public beta of cp_yeehaw with the goal of finding any balance issues and bugs before calling it finished, if you like the screenshots and have Team Fortress 2 be sure to check it out :)

There is a 16 player Jolt.co.uk server running cp_yeehaw_beta and a few other great custom maps, a fast way to download the maps would be to join the server directly.

You can also download the map from these links, you can choose either .zip or .rar, if you are unsure as to what the differences are select the .zip!

TF2 Map Previewposted on 30/03/2008

This week I've been working pretty hard on my up and coming Team Fortress 2 level, I started the map a few months ago and it's gradually coming together, for those familiar with TF2 the level will play close to cp_dustbowl, it's slightly larger with more of an emphasis on medium to long ranged combat, although like in all my levels close ranged routes are often available for those shotgun lovers.

My good friends Nay and Joe Angus have recently joined No More Room In Hell modification project I'm working on, pretty exciting times!

The LAN is over ...posted on 25/03/2008

Yesterday I got back from a whopping 4 day LAN event that had over 1800 players, I've been to 11 of them in the past so I kind of knew what to expect, never the less it was a great experience as always. Plenty of Dawn of War, Counter-strike and Everquest 2 kept me going.

As you can see, multi player gaming is serious business, before you wonder I'm not in these pictures!

You can find out more about the next LAN event HERE

I'd also really like to thank Joe Angus for this fantastic website and his continued support, cheers man!

Back From Frankfurtposted on 15/03/2008

My first news post, how exciting!

Early last week I went to Frankfurt In Germany to attend the worlds largest music instrument trade show, the place is MASSIVE a single hall was about the size of a football pitch and there was about 5 of them. I was there mainly to check out the drums and percussion as it's my much loved hobby.

The highlight for me was the Yamaha Groove Allstars, a concert with some of the worlds top drummers and musicians, even if I did have to stand for 3 hours!!

 

Now I'm back in the UK I'll be catching up with a few projects I'm working on, but not for long, as mid next week I'm heading up to Newbury for the UK's biggest LAN gaming party! It's all go for me this month.

For anyone interested in drumming this video is a classic! Check out those mullets!
