| New Mailing List |
20/4/00 |
| I've created a new mailing list for U.K. based Macintosh programmers, as I wasn't aware of there being anything similar around. You can join by mailing to uk-mac-dev-subscribe@elegantchaos.com. |
| Theme Park World coming to the Mac! |
20/4/00 |
| Next on the list of game ports that I'm doing is Theme Park World!
No word on a release date yet, but I've got the 3d engine up & running... watch this space or check out the Feral Interactive website. |
| Yatch 1.1 Released |
1/12/99 |
| Now that I've got Championship Manager done, I hope to have a bit of time to update some of my shareware.
First in the list is Yatch, which now works on folders, has some more commands available, and has an important bug fix! More info... |
| Championship Manager 99/00 Announced |
22/10/99 |
| It's official! Championship Manager 99/00 will be released for Mac and PC in time for Christmas. I've been working hard with the Sports Interactive folks (developers of the original on the PC) to bring you the Mac version, and it's looking good...
For more information on the Mac version, check out the Feral Entertainment website. For more info on the game, check out Sports Interactive |
| Championship Manager 3 |
29/8/99 |
| If you were wondering why the website has been a bit quiet recently, the answer is that for the last couple of months I have been working on the Macintosh port of Championship Manager. For those who don't know (where have you been?) CM3 is one of the most popular PC games around, and without doubt the best football (that's soccer for you americans out there) simulation you can get.
It's not officially announced yet, so I can't give you a release date, but Mac Format ran a story on it last month so I guess the cat is now out of the bag enough for me to be able to admit that I'm working on it. Don't tell anyone I said so though ;) |
| Quicktime Beans Update |
29/8/99 |
| The demo version of my Quicktime Java Beans recently timed out.
Unfortunately there has been no time recently to work on these beans, but you can now find a new version on the software page which have had the expiry date extended. |
| Shareware Update - Not Dead, Only Sleeping |
29/8/99 |
|
I've been hard at work on some private contracts, so the shareware
has been suffering from a bit of neglect.
I'm still busy, but I hope to find some time to work on it soon,
so please keep sending in your feature requests - they will be
done eventually! |
| FilmFour Screensaver |
29/8/99
|
|
This is a job I did for Channel 4, a TV station here in the UK,
in conjuction with my friends at YSP and NoHo. It's a nice little screensaver which keeps you up to date with
the FilmFour schedules and seasons.
I actually completed the work quite a while ago, but it's only
just been signed off, and I believe that it should be downloadable
from the Film Four website in the near future. |
| Yatch 1.0.1 Released |
3/7/99 |
| This is a contextual menu plugin for the Finder (System 8 or greater),
which allows you to easily alter the type and creator of files. |
| Report Spam 1.3 Released |
1/6/99 |
| This is an updated version of my Spam reporting script, which
now works with Claris Emailer and Outlook Express. |
| Contracting in progress... |
9/5/99 |
| I'm working on a screen saver for a private client at the moment,
so the shareware is having to take a bit of a back seat. With
a bit of luck it should be finished in June, at which point I'll
be able to say more about it, and hopefully also have time for
more work on the shareware... |
| Noodle Released! |
9/5/99 |
| The first fruits of my Real World work are now out in the shops
as part of the Afro Celt Sound System's latest CD. They can also
be downloaded for free on the internet, from Real World's server. |
| Back with the Old Trollop |
9/5/99 |
| No, I'm not being rude about anyone - the old trollop is my affectionate
name for ULTRALAB, one of my former employers. I was back there briefly in April,
working on a nice little bit of software for them - written in
Java, and involving Quicktime and Web-cams. I think that ULTRALAB
plan to give it away for free, but it's not finished yet so you'll
just have to be patient... |
| Script Runner 1.2 Released |
15/4/99
|
| Script Runner is a CodeWarrior plugin which allows you to execute an AppleScript once your project
has finished linking. Version 1.2 adds the ability to specify
the script by name (rather than a full path), and have CodeWarrior
search for it like any other source file - useful if you use a
source control system and share projects between a number of different
machines. |
| CD Server 1.0 Released |
9/4/99 |
| CD Server is a client/server solution that lets you control the
audio CD drive of one macintosh from another computer. |
| Report Spam 1.2 Released |
8/4/99 |
| This is an updated version of my Spam reporting script for Claris
Emailer. |
| Script Runner 1.1 Released |
24/3/99 |
| Hot on the heels of version 1.0, this update adds some more information
to the link event sent to your scripts, and also fixes a bug that
could cause 'out of memory' errors on some machines. |
| Script Runner 1.0 Released |
21/3/99 |
| Script Runner is a CodeWarrior plugin which allows you to execute an AppleScript once your project
has finished linking. |
| Bookmark Thing 1.0 Released |
17/3/99 |
| After a fairly long beta release program, we're happy to announce
that the final version of Bookmark Thing is out. |
| Report Spam 1.1 Released |
13/3/99 |
|
After reading a note on Macintouch about combating Spam, I finally got round to something that I've
been meaning to do for ages - writing an AppleScript for Claris
Emailer which allows you to report Spammers to their service providers.
As a result of some excellent feedback from Macintouch users,
I have now revised the script to version 1.1. |
| Script Runner 1.0b1 Released |
9/3/99 |
| This is a new piece of shareware, aimed at programmers who use
CodeWarrior on the Mac. It's a plugin which allows you to execute an AppleScript
once your project has finished linking. |
| Site Redesigned |
9/3/99 |
| Yes, well, you'd probably spotted it by now, but as you can see
this site has had a bit of a makeover. The main change is that
I've "unframed" it (which should make everyone's life a bit easier),
but I've also added this news section to keep you up to date with
what's happening, and tidied all sorts of other bits & pieces
too. |
| Back In The Real World |
1/3/99 |
| I was back at Real World studios during february, porting the
interactive music engine that I did for them onto Windows. Luckily,
I escaped this brush with the Dark Side (that's Windows by the
way, not Real World) with only minor injuries. Keep an eye out
for the next album from the Afro Celt Sound System, which should
contain the fruits of my labours. |
