What's that? Everyone's crazy with christmas and I write about a Unity workshop? Well, it's been a busy week so blogging had to wait until I had time ... which is ... NOW! ... so, anyways, here we go ...

Not everyone wants to immediately register with every site available. On the other hand, sometimes you come across a site you feel might be interesting ... and you create a bookmark ... and forget about it. That's what happens to me frequently. So I thought I'd add a newsletter subscription to www.ramtiga.com.

The old design of this Website has been more and more of a pain for me to look at and work with - so I'm really glad that today I can introduce: RaMtiGA - Webdesign V 2.0, a much more colorful and intense design with a left-side navigation ...

I just installed the new version of the blog-software for the portal system. And ... it's not quite working. When I currently click on any of the blog entries, I'm getting a Firefox error telling me that there's some unending redirection. So, this is both an announcement and a test-posting ;-)

I'm right now listening to the current state of the soundscape for Level 11 of Traces of Illumination - Everything in Nothing. It's not quite polished, yet ... but I'm happy that aside of some extra-polishing, it's done.

That's a very interesting experience I'm going through right now: I'm still somewhere in the middle of creating Level 12 - "Welcome to Paradise". You could say that within a few days I made some very nice progress (I'm not working full days every day ... so after a month, I can still say "within a few days" ;-) ).

Over at the Unity forums, there's currently a thread about "how we got started with programming" and I thought that was a great opportunity to finally finish my "history" section of how I got into game development ...

No, I've not suddenly become a 13-year-old incapable of proper spelling. But I'm still a bit tortured by the virus that got me down last week. That was not cool news.

It took its time - but now it's done: Instead of using my homegrown "network filter" that basically sent the message to each player individually and directly (in loops for all kinds of groups), Traces of Illumination is now using Unity's built-in networking-scoping ...

Traces of Illumination was mentioned in Unite 2008: Highlights And Award Winners on GameCareerGuide. This is the second time Traces of Illumination is "in the media"; first it was in the Unity Developer Magazine, Issue 2 (I had written about that before).

I've just sent out the invitation to the first load-test of Traces of Illumination. For the purpose of this load-test, I've created a special "load-test client" which immediately logs in to the server. The user only needs to join a team, and then wait until a real player hits "play" - the load-test client basically simulates a user with the simple AI that's also used in single player mode. The full invitation:
