been a while since ive posted! sorry about that! With all the exams and end of term, miveing up and down the country, moving in to my new flat and finaly coming home for the summer, its been a hard month or so! So heres whats been going down recently in the world of NekoCake!

Fist off, a big thanks to Dan Fernandez for the cool visual studio tshirt he sent me! Its allso go the Lego nxt robot on it. Cool stuff :)

Next up i moved in to my new flat in durham, and then came back down south to spend some of the summer at home, set up my laptop and xbox up in my room, ready to code!

Then, as im about to start working on Crimson again, my laptop overheats! i check  everything, make sure all the vents are free from dust, and again, it overheats. Phone up alienware, they sent me some new thermal compound. redid the seal between the cpu and the hsf… overheats! Got a returns box coming next week, then it will take 5 days for a fully repaired flabtop to work its way back to my home :(

 Good news is, ive been working stuff out on paper, and ive got a better idea of the layout  for the engine code. not a full design yet, im going to read loads more articles and browse through some other engines to sure up any doubts i still have. The current plan is to have loads of little virtual machines in my code, and for entity’s and engine code to beable to register processes with them. This should allow me to handle threads quite well, and use some of the knowledge ive learned at uni in the operating systems lectures!

 Allso, you might just have noticed, ive changed the theme! i hated the old one, this ones alot more consistant with the main site… and lets you see more than one post a page!
