OpenMW is an attempt to reimplement the popular role playing game Morrowind. It aims to be a fully playable, open source implementation of the game. You must own Morrowind to use OpenMW. To give you a better idea of what this project is about, here are some of the aims…
3DO Play Emulator
Update 09/14/2019. I am using RetroArch for all my older games including 3DO. I wrote a quick start guide to run 3DO in RetroArch here. Update 11/03/2015. There is a fork called 4DO which looks really good. I have not been able to get it working in Wine as of…
MyPaint OS X Lion Install via Wineskin or Macports
MyPaint is an open source and free to use natural painting application similar to Painter. It’s really good, but unfortunately there isn’t a native port to the Mac. No fears, thanks to Wineskin it’s trivial to use it on your Macintosh. I created an easy to follow instruction to walk…
Moon Phase Icons, All 24.
I’ve been working on a script to calculate twenty four moon phases and I needed to create some moon images that give me 24 phases. I was only able to find the common eight phase images. I made a series of individual high resolution PNGs with the Photoshop layered file…

Random Number Generator in Python and Objective-C
If you want a simple number generator for say picking Keno, lotto, or self made contests, here’s just how simple it is to do in Python. I was listening to Linux Outlaws awhile back and they were using a couple of different scripts to generate winners for a contest so…
Geektool + Python = Desktop Weather (& moonphase)
I had some free time today and was playing with Geektool, which is like the desktop toys I used to play with years ago on Linux – SuperKaramba comes to mind. I wrote a Python script as an example to do some weather stuff, which can be edited to work…
Editra Launch Objective-C Compiler
As I’m learning Objective-C I find moving between the terminal and my favorite IDE, Editra kind of annoying. Luckily Editra has a really cool plug-in called Launch that can be configured to run code and display the results within the editor. The only problem is that compiling and running objective-c…
Timers, Status and Code, Oh my!
Before I deleted my site I had posted some code and programs that fire a timer in order to count down the days to an event. I wrote this in both XCode and IronPython, which can be downloaded with full source below. I decided to share again. If you don’t…
