As you might already know the Minigolf3D-project was abandoned due to another major HDD crash. All irrlicht related work but CustomUI is affected by this incident. I take this as a chance to think about a new project very carefully. When there is something to report about you’ll find it here. Be sure that there definately will be a future game project based on irrlicht.
As you maybe already noticed the server had a downtime yesterday. Due to a HardDiskFailure, which befall yesterday, the server shut down automatically and could be restarted in the evening hours. Perhaps there will be several downtimes the next days in order to replace the broken HDD. I try to keep them as short as possible.
Unfortunately this is no April Fool, but the good news is the affected data were not part of one of the Masterhawk studios projects so the work on these can resume unhindered.
Past 1 1/2 years the last post was published on the old website. Since then I nearly spend all my time on the Minigolf3D project and due to the fact that there exists an own development blog for this project the information on non-minigolf3d-related topics run dry. Also the awkward maintenance of the antiquated source distracted me from posting new information.
This time I try to make it better! A new Apache webserver and a Wordpress distribution should do the trick for now. But the new webserver will also have some other positive effects on the development of the Masterhawk studios. It can be used to set up several game servers for upcoming multiplayer games, because that is what I will place the scope on. Minigolf3D will only begin the new era. I have quite a lot of new concepts in my tray.
I hope you like the new site. A few more improvements on the wordpress skin will further increase the usablitity for my purposes.
So stay tuned!
