Hacx 1.2 2010-10-15 19:54:45
The biggest thing I can think of that happened this month was Xaser has released Hacx 1.2. For those that are interested more information can be found on Nostromo's Hacx website. (Which was updated to not look like a product of 1998.) Of course the people on Doomworld were quick to point out how it contains some enhancements for ZDoom, but the main purpose of this release was to convert Hacx into a stand alone IWAD.
Since school started again I've been working on BitOwl Application Suit 2.0 again. I recently overhauled the CP (going through old code is always fun). Now instead of a large amount of templates it simply uses a forms system. This allows for a much more unified user experience between modules. Hopefully I can actually get around to releasing the script sometime (maybe by the end of this year).
I've also upgraded to Kubuntu 10.10. So far the upgrade has been "painless". I rebooted to an unusable X setup, but after a while I was able to get the bad packages un-installed. (I blame my impulsive need to use third party upgrades.) The only main problem I've had with this release was KMix only showing the PulseAudio streams (so I can't easily turn my digital I/O on/off). Definitely better than 10.04 was thus far.
For ZDoom I finally got unlazy enough to add joystick support for Linux. Now if only I could get my Sixaxis controller to work over blue tooth (according to the utility my blue tooth card is too old). Of course it would be nice if the wires weren't disappearing from my computer as well.
Oh and Front Line Assembly is stuck in my head now.
