Race Driver: GRID sfrutterà lo stesso motore grafico dell'ultimo episodio rallystico della serie Colin McRae Rally, il riuscitissimo Neon Engine ulteriormente potenziato per gestire al meglio le esigenze che un simulatore (su pista e questa volta anche su strada) di guida richiede.

Il game sarà disponibilie i primi di Giugno 2008 per piattaforme Windows (PC) e console di ultima generazione Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 e Nintendo DS con l'obiettivo finale di creare un gioco di guida in cui il videogiocatore si trovi al centro dell'azione come mai prima d'ora.
Il Game Designer di GRID, Ralph Fulton, ha affermato "Questo non è un gioco dove bisogna collezionare auto o spendere il tuo tempo a migliorare sospensioni e settaggi del motore o disegnare le livree. Noi vogliamo rendere eccitante correre ancora una volta".

Ecco uno dei migliori video di Race Driver: GRID
[dailymotion id=x4dvq3]

L'obiettivo è quindi quello di guidare, correre e vincere competendo nei tracciati ufficiali di marchi come Aston Martin, Koesingsegg e Pagani, affiancati da percorsi cittadini e altri circuiti non ancora noti.

Su GamesBlog.it troverete una serie di immagini del gioco ambiantete a Milano

Sul sito ufficiale sono presenti filmati e immagini del gioco. Inoltre potete registrarvi per essere aggiornati sugli ultimi annunci, news, uscite e download dei giochi.

Here is a tutorial to compile the latest compiz from git.

First, see here if it is safe to run compiz-git.

Getting Git

sudo apt-get install git git-core

Getting Compiz-git

wget http://www.xs4all.nl/~mgj1/downloads/compiz-git-newest.tar.gz

tar xzf compiz-git-newest.tar.gz

You should now have a directory called compiz-git in your home-directory

Install compiz from git

cd compiz-git

./compiz-git install

Update compiz from git

cd compiz-git

./compiz-git update

Running compiz-fusion

fusion-icon
OR Run Compiz Fusion Icon (in your menu)

Uninstall compiz from git (which you would never do :))

cd compiz-git

./compiz-git uninstall

cd ..

rm -r compiz-git

What do you get after doing all these ??

and lots more. Will update soon.

Enjoy Compiz. Special thanks to Martijn Bastiaan for the above information.

Workin workin workin. Here's the photo of the day.
Liking the vignetted look.

En la web del autor lena-gieseke podréis ver el vídeo, imágenes de diferentes secuencias del mismo, además de explicaciones sobre el proceso de elaboración del trabajo.

Esta vez no me interesa tanto la pintura en sí, como el video (al final del post) que intenta transformar la visión de la obra insertándole una tercera dimensión.

Creo, primero que nada que intentar exponer una obra de Picasso en tercera dimensión está sobre todo fuera de lugar, porque Picasso intentaba que un medio bidimensional como es la pintura o dibujo, o los experimentos que hizo con materiales, tuvieran independencia y no tuvieran que luchar constantemente por alcanzar una copia de la realidad.

La presentación de los dos ojos sobre el perfil del rostro, los cubos en los que todos los lados se observaban y las poses mostrando la espalda y los pechos al mismo tiempo son simplemente experimentos para mostrar una realidad integral en el mural, es por tanto ilógico.

Mis obras favoritas de Picasso, los Guitarrones hechos de periódicos y cartón, demuestran diferentes facetas del instrumento en un montaje totalmente plano. La magia y corazón del cubismo está en la liberación del medio, pintura, dibujo, ready-made, del paradigma de que el arte es simplemente una reproducción de la realidad, ¿No puede ser el arte bella simplemente por si misma y no ser bella por contacto con la belleza de sus sujetos?, creyendo que sí toda la dimensión fue "satirizada" en un medio totalmente plano y omnidimensional al mismo tiempo.

Biskero, is a nice site using PV3D, that shows you several ways to graphically display data. It is one of the showcases, about data display. Hope it can helps you, on your future projects, when handling with graphic data.

The authors developed vertex-to-vertex (vv) formalism to describe cell-like system behavior. This means that the approach is targeted at dynamic systems, which change through time. Vertex-to-vertex formalism is similar to L-systems in that it uses lineage information and context to identify elements of structure. Vertex-to-vertex formalism relies only on local information in contrast to L-system declarative nature, which describes rules for the whole structure. This method allows associating each vertex of a polygonal mesh with a list of its neighboring vertices. The resulting structure is manipulated using vv algebra, which includes a set of various operators.

The form change in vv formalism is a result of tensions introduced to tissues by growth. Each vertex is affected by a sum of forces from neighboring vertices. Also, external forces can be introduced, such as gravity and the pressure of the internal structure layer to its external layer.

The resulting forces are updated until equilibrium is reached.

The simulated objects are directly represented as polygonal meshes. Each vertex of the polygonal mesh is manipulated according to tension energies from its neighboring vertices, as well as other forces. The final shape of the plant is generated by calculating the local stresses resulted by local growth. This method might be not the best to produce full-grown tree models, but it could be very important in modeling small plants or parts of them.

Surrealisma nos descubre el trabajo de Olivier Bucheron, conocido como Zamak.
Mientras realizaba sus estudios en la escuela de arte de Tours, Francia, trabajó en una fundición. Allí le vino la idea de construir sus propias máquinas, robots, vehículos utilizando Cinema 4D para el modelado y animación, VRay y Photoshop para la post-producción.

"Me gusta trabajar rápido para tener un resultado rápido, por eso uso formas sencillas para empezar. Después dejo el trabajo (un rato, horas, días, semanas...), y cuando vuelvo a trabajar en él de nuevo añado los accesorios, detalles, defino las luces, sombras y la textura".

En la actualidad trabaja como director de arte en el estudio de diseño funktrip con sede en París.

Someone left a comment on that article, asking how to create semi-transparent items in Panel3D. I didn't know the answer, but luckily someone else did. It turns out that I was adding the 3D models to the Viewport3D's Children collection in the wrong order. Panel3D was putting the front-most model at the beginning of the Children collection (technically, the scene's light source is the very first child). The index of a model in the Children collection matched its visible index, meaning that the element furthest away from the viewer was the last child in the Viewport3D. This was completely wrong!

It turns out that transparency of 3D models in a Viewport3D is a little more tricky than working with transparency of 2D elements living in a 2D world. For transparency to work correctly in a Viewport3D, you must add the models into the Children collection in the opposite order than which we see them (relative to the scene's camera). If you want to learn more about this issue, go to this blog post, which explains the issue quite well. Unfortunately, the utility method offered in that post does not work in Panel3D.

I modified Panel3D so that it arranges the models in the correct order. The updated source code is not yet available, since I want to give it some time to marinate in my head before I revise the CodeProject article. I did, however, update the WPF Disciples Blog Viewer 3D (with audio) application so that it takes advantage of this new feature.

Download the app here: WPF Disciples Blog Viewer 3D (with audio!)

NOTE: Be sure to change the file extension from .DOC to .ZIP and then decompress it.

Here is a "before" picture, of what the app used to look like (click to view full size image):

Here is the "after" picture, showing how the transparency looks:

I also added two new dependency properties to Panel3D.

AllowTransparency must be set to true if you want the models to be "truly" transparent. If you leave it to false, the old behavior is honored, where the items become more "dim" when their opacity is lowered. The new WPF Disciples Blog Viewer 3D app, seen above, sets this to true, which is why you can see through the items.

AutoAdjustOpacity can be set to false if you do not want Panel3D to automatically set the opacity of each element displayed in the scene. The new WPF Disciples Blog Viewer 3D app, seen above, sets this to false, which is why the items do not seem to fade away as they move into the distance.

I will release the new source code and update the CodeProject article soon...I promise! :D

PLANETART PRESSRELEASE:

One of the largest art festivals in the Netherlands:

De Kunstvlaai / Art Pie International

shows also art wich is only visible from Second Life.

10-18 May 2008 at the Westergasfabriek, Amsterdam + in Second Life

De Kunstvlaai is the alternative Dutch art fair, founded as reaction
on the commercial art fairs. This year PLANETART <http://www.planetart.nl>,
organisation of the multimedia art, expands the Kunstvlaai into Second Life.

Virtual Worlds Mash-up

Art can be admired, only visible through Second Life, to use the possibilities of new worlds optimal and also to give international visitorsthe ability of visiting the Kunstvlaai as intense as possible in a digitalway. Besides this, the visitors of the Kunstvlaai are offered the possibilty of exploring Second Life, under the guidance of DutchX and Meta.Live.Nu, in the Flexbar at the Westergasfabriek terrain

Discover the undiscovered

The Flexbar is the place for interactive media art. In the main room the
installation Virtual Mash up is present. A collection of wide screen video
projections, computer networks and monitor installations with art mixed from
a range of virtual worlds as Second Life, Webkinz, Barbieworld,
Disneyfaries, MissBimbo, Wii interfaces, and several other games and
gamehacks. Contributions from i.e. Joane Leandre, Edo Paulus, Arahan
Claveau, Ichibot Nishi, Nebulosus Severine, Sandwoman Petion
and by students of the Rietveld art academy and
the VU University Amsterdam.

La banda Jonas Brothers está próxima a saltar a la pantalla grande, al anunciar que serán protagonistas de su propio filme. Y es que las estrellas prometieron grabar parte de los conciertos que ofrecerán en julio próximo, y que lleva por nombre 'Burning Up'.

Asimismo, los hermanos Jonas no sólo deleitarán a sus fans con los momentos más importantes de su gira, sino que además, lo harán en tercera dimensión, justo para que sus seguidoras sientan como si estuvieran con ellos.

Al respecto, los Jonas comentaron, mediante un comunicado, 'estamos ansiosos por empezar a trabajar en este film por nuestros fans. Será impresionante y realmente queremos traer una única y diferente experiencia para todos los que nos hayan visto en vivo y los que no.'

Por su parte, el presidente de Walt Disney Studios, Oren Aviv aseguró, que 'más que un concierto, este film mostrará a los espectadores el proceso creativo de la banda, y los presentará en una forma muy íntima y entretenida'.

Por otro lado, el sitio en Internet adnmundo.com aseguró que la película será dirigida por Bruce Hendricks, quien ya tiene experiencia en los films en tercera dimensión, pues también se encargó de dirigir la película de Hannah Montana, protagonizada por Miley Cyrus.

It got an update, and it has a bunch of new pieces to make tracks with. The video shows one of my favorite additions. It also has more players, most of them are new, but that's ok. And it's still completely free!

If you made an account with the old TM Nations, there's no need to worry, the game will recognize your account if you remember the password and everything. The new editor is a bit confusing (there are separate pieces for the railing and actual track, so you have to find the right one. A bit difficult if you want the track to ramp up in certain ways) but there is an option to go to a less complicated editor if you can't keep up with all of the new pieces. I don't think anything else was really modified, (I had a feeling that maybe the car turned faster than I remember, but I don't know if that's true or not) but it's still enough that you should really get the update. And don't forget that you have to have steam!
