Link to new blog

As the .plan feature here at M.com does not work any more, I created my own blogger.com powered blog located at http://opendemo.blogspot.com. I even wrote a first entry already.

SOF2 update, pipe feature added, ODcut, binary release

After getting several user requests, the SOF2 port is now finally based on the unofficial SDK 1.03. The "leaning problem" (during replay the player always leans to the left) in SOF2 remains. Someone with more understanding of the inner SOF2 workings should have a look into it.

I added a new feature: reading from a named pipe. That means the replay mode no longer has to read a file from disk but can also directly read the output of another program writing to the same named pipe. This is an important step towards ODcut, the OpenDemo editor currently in heavy development (CVS only).

Despite its pre-alpha state, I advertise already ODcut, the OpenDemo Cutter. It has a (wxWidgets) GUI, can cut and paste parts of OpenDemo files, and can feed its output directly into a named pipe for instant game reaction.

Q3A update, usage change, binary release

The Q3A port is now based on the 1.32 source code release.

During rebasing the OpenDemo source from Q3A 1.29h to 1.32 I found, that the usage between Q3A and all other 4 games was already different and the source was really not the same anymore across the 5 game platforms. Thus I decided to incorporate the Q3A change into all other games. Read doc/usage before using the new version.
