Letztes Wochenende hatten Ricky und ich eine "Duke-Nacht": Wir spielten die ganze Nacht über
"Duke Nukem 3D"-Dukematch, von Samstag abend um neun bis Sonntag morgen um acht. Hier die Ergebnisse:

| Redlight District | : | 80 | 73 |
|
| TOTAL | : | 374 | 197 | (=571) |

Falls du's noch nicht gemacht hast, reihe dich mit in die Liste der
weltweiten Spieler ein. Benutze dazu am besten die
"Figur gestalten"-Seite. Wenn du deinen Spieler
hinzufügst, liefere dazu BITTE genug Info. Letztens haben sich zwei Spieler OHNE JEGLICHE INFO,
außer ihren Farben, dazu gesellt (wenn einer von euch beiden
 /
 )
das gerade liest: Schicke mir bitte detailliertere Infos!)

Komplette Website umgewandelt, benutze jetzt PHP & CSS
(Cascading Style Sheets) für alle Seiten. Das bedeutet: kein JavaScript mehr
(außer für manchen speziellen Krams, wie auf der "Figur gestalten"-Seite). Habe immernoch zwei, drei
Sachen zu verändern, aber ihr solltet davon nichts merken (falls jemand DOCH einen Fehler sieht,
sagt's mir bitte!).
Irgendwie pink, nicht wahr? Hehe... dieser neue Look bleibt nur zwölf Stunden, es ist ein Stil-Test.
Bald könnt ihr euren eigenen Look wählen (dieser pinke Look ist der "Girl Power"-Look ;-)

dass du ein WAP-Handy benutzst).

. . . . . . . . . . XBlast TNT -- April 26, 2000 [8:40]
|
Here's an update from Oliver Vogel on XBlast TNT :
"You might not believe it, but actually I managed to release a new TNT version :-)
This is the first version with network support. But is still only game and player
data exchange between server and clients. You cannot start a networked game, yet.
But the networked game setup works quite nicely, including menus showing players on other hosts".
Go to his XBlast Homepage to download the new version.

|
. . . . . . . . . . Players / PoVRay / Nokia -- April 20, 2000 [20:57]

page (please note it is a beta). If you want to have a look at the readme.txt click here.
As I already told you yesterday the main new feature is scramble tables handling, but there are 4-5 other new things (more info soon, I'm preparing
an online BlastEd manual...).

. . . . . . . . . . BlastEd -- July 22nd 1999
|
|
I will soon release a new version of BlastEd ! I'm working on it as I write this (nearly ;). This new version corrects some
display bugs and adds some little new features ('undo' for example) but the main improvement is that BlastEd will be able to load/create/save Scramble
tables (which I like a lot but are a pain in the ass to design by hand). I'm also planning on enabling level-saving in xblast-TNT format but this will be for
a later version... (maybe also a built-in shrink-editor one day)

I added Jeppe and another new player to the Worldwide Players list.

Had a nice surprise today: a ICQ authorization request from 'Target', a danish XBlast player !
He told me that they are some xblast players in Aarhus (the second largest city in Denmark ;). And guess what these guys are studying ?
yes! computer science (and maths).
That's why I had to update the XBlast World Map.
(note: excuse my poor english, I'm tired.. hehe)

. . . . . . . . . . Test game -- July 2nd 1999

Today at 17:15 (Paris time) I had my first game against a distant player !

Netherlands) and I won 5 to 1
(5 victories, 3 lives, standard levels, speed 35).
We then played a second game, but with 3 players (Alex joined), and I won again :-)
