gavjof blogging again

It’s been quite some time since my last blog post. I’ve had a busy year. I’ve moved house and have had several other side-projects on the go which has left me with little time or motivation to keep my blog going. Jof and myself have started a new venture together which should help give the [ READ MORE ]

News shoes

Well, boots actually. I just couldn’t resist the Twin Peak reference from Leo Johnson when he’s reduced to a vegetable dribbling on about new shoes. Last weekend after looking at many boot sites we finally went through Newcastle and got ourselves a new pair of boots ready for this years activities. We had looked at several [ READ MORE ]

probably the best tees ever

A while ago someone shared this link with me and said it contained tee shirts for geeks: http://www.lastexittonowhere.com There is something special about this one though. It’s not simply tee shirts for geeks; it’s tees for movies fans, but done in a very clever way. You will look great out wearing the Nostromo shirt, but I bet [ READ MORE ]

Free Image & Photo editing software

A good number of my clients come to me with very little knowledge about computers, and computer applications. They can do basic task in Microsoft Word and thus can use the WYSIWYG Editor in the website to update their content. Problems arise when they wish to put a photo in the page. They both lack the [ READ MORE ]

Zombies, Zombies, Zombies!

Official Sup Com Map List

I wanted to muck around with some of the official maps that ship with Supreme Commander and Forged Alliance so I opened up the Map Editor and browsed the folders. What I found was that all of the maps were in folders named SCMP_001 to SCMP_41. This wasn’t very helpful so I did a quick [ READ MORE ]

Armed Assault gets interesting

Having messed about installing the must have mods and add-ons that we’ve all been instructed to download and install I must say that I’m starting to really enjoy this Armed Assault. Last night we played two custom missions. Being more experienced now, Simon and Alex’s missions were complete with briefing, way-points and other cool things [ READ MORE ]

Mods for Supreme Commander?

I was reading up on the Gas Powered Games forums about the current BETA testers and their comments on the upcoming expansion Forged Alliance, when I noticed someones signature had a link in to some kind of Sup Com Mod:- http://forums.gaspowered.com/viewtopic.php?t=4142 The “4th Dimension” is a modification for Supreme Commander which adds new content like [ READ MORE ]

Bambrugh Castle

Bambrugh Castle Me & Jof walked for about 3 hours up and down the beach over by bambrugh castle. Took many closeups but this is one of the better “full frame” shots. Pity the sky was not a perfect blue. Did I mention we forgot to use sun lotion? It was a beautiful day and [ READ MORE ]
