…then my websites working.

Sorry for the lack of updates, I had to move my site host so the past week has been a blur of frantic coding to make some of the stuff on wunderboy.org work with the new server set-up and tranferring of database. I think we’re done now.

Expect some project updates soon – they’re kinda cool 🙂

A couple of weeks ago, Phillp Searle from the Half-Life Improvement team mailed me to ask about a custom version of my HLMV that their dev team could use for testing their new ragdoll physics system.

Yes, you heard right, ragdoll physics like HL2 in HL1.

Phillip sent me the relevant code over from their development and after about and hour or so I’d managed to plug it all in and try it out and I was very impressed! I asked Phillip if I could post something and he agreed so I made a little AVI of a ragdoll from HLMV.

Bear in mind that this is a shot of the physics system currently in development and they are still tweaking the IK limits for the ragdolls so that joints behave in a more realistic manner – the un-natural bending of the limbs should be fixed by the time their done.

If you want more information and want to see what the guys are up to with their Half-Life enhancements projects, I suggest you check out their forums and website.

Taking a detour from the traditional CamWhore image, my chunky Welsh mate Pete has decided that the world needs to see more of his ugly face.
