Last week I said that Floppi had done other great songs, well, here is is “Aerosol”, also by Floppi.

This is “Kumihaik” by Floppi of whom I’ve come across quite a few good songs by!

These are the screenshots for the application thus far. Nothing special to look at, but somewhat functional.
The aim is to provide a window upon extraction to allow customization of how the files are extracted. Whether certain files are left raw, or perhaps converted to a file of choice.
Here’s what I’ve been thinking so far with regards to extraction in a few releases time:
A creature sprite resource from Hexen
A Weapon sprite resource from Heretic
A “flat” image resource from Strife
A patch image resource from Doom II: Hell on Earth
I now have the update facility working, I can parse the images (Sprites, Flats and Patches) properly and save them to a file, and the general WAD reading works just fine.
To the left is a quick mid-res mock-up of the icon to be used. I’ll probably change it a few times as the time goes on. The icons for the application will go from 8×8 to 256×256 at all levels of colour, 4-bit, 8-bit and 32-bit
I need to port over some code from an old C++ project for the map viewing, but this shouldn’t take too long.
In all, I’m quite happy with it. I do believe the hard bit is not the programming, but design of the application and how I present all of the features. That’s the bit that’s always bested me, I’m afraid to say.
I’ll post some screenshots soon and I can hopefully be critiqued!
I’ve recently been toying with the early stages of an updated, GUI version of the Doom WAD Reader / Extractor utility that I once released.
So in the meantime, I want to upload a quick and dirty (Beta) version of this application, which after feedback via the Contact Me page, I will promptly update and keep updated with cool features, possibly along the lines of the following:
Because of this, I’m adding an even quicker and dirtier auto-update facility so users will always be a click away from the latest version of the tool.
As always, I enjoy feedback whether positive or negative, so don’t hesitate to leave some at the Contact Me page.
This is “Princess” by Heretic/Destiny.

I’ve put up a small (Actually, tiny) page on GameBoy Emulation for anybody who’s interested.
It’s located in the “Page” section on the right hand side under “Misc”.
Here’s a picture of the simple ROM file running as mentioned in the above page being run. I’ve only implemented enough to get this ROM working. It’s still missing quite a few opcodes, I’m not dealing with any of the interrupts, and so on.
Currently, I’m saving all of the image data to a simple buffer which I’m using a Device Independent Bitmap (DIB)to handle the rendering. There’s no rush to change this as speed really isn’t a factor.
This is “Telephone2” by (unfortunately) an unknown artist.
If anybody knows who wrote this song, or the actual artist happens upon this post, give me a shout!
