Hi! I'm back.

Hi! I'm back after an 18 month absence. Real life had me by the ... hair of my chin ... and wouldn't let go.

Part of my problems was my main drive and the backup went belly up. Lost 1.5 tera bytes of stuff.
Luckily, the backup's backup let me recover a little over half of it.

But part of the lost stuff was my Multiverse files.
I'm going to have to start over.
Guess it's as good a time as any to rewrite the code and try to get it better this time.

So, my first project is to rewrite my terrain generator. This time in a windows program so I can see the terrain as it's being created. And it'll include tiling routines to output the terrain in tiles for use in Multiverse.

When I get something that works, I'll put it up here so you guys can tell me what needs to be fixed or improved.


At any rate, it's good to be back.

Welcome Back!

we have been through a bit of a black hole ourselves but Tristan and I have pushed through and gotten everything pretty well back under control I have updated the Java side of the platform to run under Java 8 (6 & & 7 still work but 8 is better ) and I am now looking at replacing Axiom with NeoAxis 3d engine which is straight Ogre 3d basicly so the tools and what not are very similar to what we have now.

and we also now have a Live Demo up named Live Worlds which I hope will become a full on F2p MMO as well as a place to advertize projects, services and other nifty stuff.

anyhow, Welcome Back!

Thank you.

I see that I have a new learning curve to deal with.
I had been meaning to learn Linux anyway, so I guess soon is as good a time as any.
(I say 'soon' because I'm going to get my Terrain generator running first.)

Check list:
Build the terrain generator
Build the terrain
Learn Linux
Build the world
Rule the world
Torture the players... eh.. I mean monsters

OK, back to work.
