It's Deep Zoom shows promise.ĭo you need it now? No. I digress though, Silverlight is good for quickly dumping a skin over some video using Encoder. Silverlight isn't some magic bullet that can do anything and why in the world would you want it to either? How about a clever or RIA that helps me prepare for retirement like E*TRADE has (which is built with Flex btw)? You will not see photo editing and word processing in Silverlight in the near future. There are a plethora of amazing RIAs out there for Flash compared to the few that are Silverlight. For more information about the Microsoft Silverlight auto-update feature, see the Microsoft Silverlight Updater. How is knowing two easier than one? It's not.

Let's see, in Flash we have Actionscript but in Silverlight we have XAML and then either C# or VB.NET. It's because your current browser version is out of date and uses the Microsoft Silverlight plug-in to play Netflix. Open the Mac App Store from your Dock or Finder. It certainly doesn't seem to be easier to code than Flash. Then there's Expression Studio which feels like it's about 8 behind Adobe's Creative Suite but that's a whole other story. It's trying to move into the same area as Flash but it's still about 4 years behind in that there are fewer components/assets, no MovieClip equivalent, video and animation causes anything slower than a core duo to drop frames, no motion paths, no filters (drop shadows, blur, glow, etc.) and probably more stuff I can't remember atm. How exactly is Silverlight an "advanced alternative" to Flash? It's not. Ah, Betanews, source of wordy news articles and reviewers who have no idea what they're talking about.įirst off Silverlight is nearly 3x the download size of Flash player.

" In our darkest hour, nine Iron Wolves emerged from the ruins." - Wolfswood Cloak description. The second generation of the Lords, the Iron Wolves, and their weapons are likewise honored by the Iron Banner. The names of their signature weapons are lent to various Iron Banner equipment, such as the Felwinter's Lie Shotgun and the Jolder's Hammer Machine Gun. The sacrifices of the most well-known Lords are honored at the Iron Temple atop Felwinter Peak, and celebrated in the Iron Banner tournament. The eight Iron Lords who made it, save for Lord Saladin, sacrificed themselves to contain the biomechanical plague by sealing themselves within its replication chamber before it had time to escape. Ultimately, the venture would result in the loss of all save for Saladin Forge and Efrideet, who had disappeared to live in the wilds beyond the city. Hoping it would be able to build ships and colonies, the Iron Lords pushed through the Cosmodrome despite Rasputin's desperate attempts to sway them and suffered the loss of hundreds of Lords to a combination of aerial strikes, a Frame army, and SIVA constructs. Seeking a way to rebuild what was lost during the Collapse, they eventually found SIVA. During this conflict, the Iron Lords were known for their invincible patrols and their contributions to the great Wall-Building, cementing their legend. The Iron Lords protected the newly constructed walls of the City in the infamous Battle of Six Fronts against six Fallen approaches, and not a single front faltered. įollowing the Warlord conflict, the Iron Lords dedicated themselves to defending survivors of the Collapse and restoring civilization. One former Warlord, Lord Felwinter, was swayed by the Iron Lord's message and decided to join their cause. More and more noble Guardians joined the cause until an army hundreds strong was formed and the oppressive warlords were deposed, along with the Fallen who ravaged the Earth. Eventually, Guardians with integrity chose to stand up to their tyrannical brethren and form the Iron Lords. Taking over various parts of the planet, some Guardians became Warlords and injustice reigned, with the rest of the populace living under the tyranny of the various factions. In the first years after the Collapse, a time before the rise of the Vanguard and the Last City, some of the earliest Guardians to be revived chose not to protect the world, but subjugate it. And survival is not always a victory." - Lord Saladin That was something you had to be there for. But no one truly knows how the Iron Lords died their final deaths.

A theme I found to be captivating was the balance between righteousness and villainy, and the gray area that lies between. I was completely absorbed by this world of clan rivalries and magical cultivation. MDZS’s writing, story, and characters were all amazing, from beginning to finish. However, I was left wanting more, and immediately delved into this novel. I started this journey with the Donghua, and I loved that too. I lost my Chinese novel virginity to Mo Dao Zu Shi. (Edit: they have even translated the side stories now!) If you are having trouble finding the novel the amazing people over at Exiled Rebels did an amazing job translating and posting it in a format accessible by everyone. Overall I can't recommend this book enough, and even if you just like a good fiction story this is one of the best, and nothing I can say will do the actual book justice. But as life often does, nothing goes according to plan and Wie-Ying ends up the greatest evil the world has ever known. The story itself follows a bright and powerful cultivator by the name of Wie-Ying, who wants nothing more than to live his life carefree and keep his family and loved ones safe. Its story is also very human, you can understand why all the characters due what they do, and each character-even the ones only there for two or three chapters-are fleshed out, they have personalities, ideals, flaws, and lives both before and after the story ends. It never gets boring, the pacing is great, and the world is so complete and real it is bordering on Tolkien levels of detail and audience understanding. It has a beautiful story that's both captivating and surprising. The Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation is by far one of the best books I have ever read. Let me start off by saying I'm a fairly avid reader, and I've read a wide variety of genres and types of writing styles.

Sandulenko says. It's awful, but we got source and support. "If we have source code and right, we'll try and implement it, even if it's something like this freeware 'Drascula' game. One of the developers being particularly passionate about it.The two most common ways a game or engine gets into ScummVM are: We originally announced it as an April Fool’s joke, but… why not? Go play it!" There’s versions of Hello World longer than that! So it was pretty easy. Full Pipe, that’s about 31,000 lines of code. Well, in short, because we had a crazy developer willing to invest the time, maybe because of the. However, there is method to the madness-even the madness of devoting time to resurrecting Plumbers Don’t Wear Ties. It’s hard to imagine taking on this amount of work in the name of a completely forgotten Russian adventure game notable for little but being an early-ish Steam release. So, that's a year and a half on one game." It took ten months to implement it and start bug fixing, but it was only in 2016 I was able to pick it up again and finish it this year. Sandulenko demonstrates with a look at his last implementation, an obscure adventure called Full Pipe. Sometimes all this takes years, not months. Those different game versions each require more work. There's a lot of trial-and-error, and it's not a one time process. That mapping can take months, and then the ScummVM team has to convert the code into C or another language. We call the process of figuring it out 'mapping.'" all you're left with is taking an address from memory location X and use it as a pointer to another byte, and so on. Along the way you lose all the function names, all the variable names. "We take the original binary, and if you know the process of compilation, you'll know that turns high level programming code into assembly and then binary code. You want to run the Macintosh version of Indiana Jones, which was in black and white? We can do that in ScummVM. We have games based on SCUMM engines for Atari and Macintosh and Apple 2c and Amiga. Secondly of course, not all games were written for DOS or Windows. Something like DOSBox, you'd need about a gigahertz to run it. Something like Monkey Island was written in the CPC era, on slow machines, and our requirements for it are about the same. This is the major difference between emulators, like DOSBox and reimplementation, like ScummVM. "ScummVM started in 2001 and some of the platforms we were running on were only 25. "Well, the key words are ‘these days’!" Sandulenko points out. It does however mean development can look quite slow on the outside, especially since these days you can drop more or less anything into DOSBox and have it at least run acceptably. This hand-crafted approach has given ScummVM a well-deserved reputation for quality. these preparations, Lamphier wound up with bruised and battered fingers and palms.

After being told that would not do for such an important occasion, he offered his own house for the surrender meeting. Soon after entering the village, the two Confederates happened upon a homeowner, Wilmer McLean, who showed them an unfurnished and somewhat run-down house. Lee's Men Get to Keep Horses: Rations Go to Confederate Soldiers Soon Lee sent the aides ahead to find a suitable location for the surrender. Lee and two of his aides rode toward Appomattox Court House, accompanied by Babcock and Dunn. The meeting place was left to Lee's discretion. William McKee Dunn, brought Grant's reply to Lee. Grant received Lee's request four miles west of Walker's Church, about six miles from Appomattox Court House. He later asked for "a suspension of hostilities" pending the outcome of the surrender talks. Lee, upon learning of this news and realizing his retreat had been halted, asked Grant for a meeting to discuss his army's surrender. Gordon's corps attacked Federal cavalry, but Gordon quickly realized he could not push forward without substantial help from other Confederate forces. The next morning, Lee faced Union cavalry and infantry in his front at Appomattox Court House and two Union corps to his rear three miles to the northeast at New Hope Church. Union cavalry reached Appomattox Station before Lee and blocked his path on April 8. Philip Sheridan's cavalry, along with two rapidly moving infantry corps, marched hard from Farmville, in central Virginia, along a more southerly route than Confederate forces. This correspondence would continue throughout the following day. However, he did ask what terms Grant was offering. Lee responded, saying he did not agree with Grant's opinion of the hopelessness of further resistance of his army. Army known as the Army of Northern Virginia." "I feel that it is so, and regard it as my duty to shift from myself any further effusion of blood, by asking of you the surrender of that portion of the C.S. "The result of last week must convince you of the hopelessness of further resistance on the part of the Army of Northern Virginia in this struggle," Grant wrote. Grant, realizing that Lee's army was running out of options, sent a letter to Lee on April 7 requesting the Confederate general's surrender. Lee desperately sought a train loaded with supplies for his troops but encountered none. The Confederate Army’s retreat moved southwest along the Richmond & Danville Railroad. General Grant’s forces counterattacked a week later on April 1 at Five Forks, forcing Lee to abandon Richmond and Petersburg the following day. General Lee's final campaign began March 25, 1865, with a Confederate attack on Fort Stedman, near Petersburg. The string of events marking the end of the war all began with Lee’s Appomattox campaign. Lee's Last Campaign: Starved for Supplies

They weren’t designed to be opened and shut daily like our present designs, which is why so few remain today. Solid shutters were originally installed in pre-Edwardian houses and were only used a couple of times a year when the owners decamped for the season. The traditional method of opening and closing louvres is with a rod on the outside of the shutter, but many companies now offer designs that feature hidden mechanisms or even remote-controlled shutters (good for hard-to-reach windows) for a contemporary finish. ‘Larger louvres allow in more light when the shutter is open,’ says Harriet Shackleton, sales manager at The New England Shutter Company (opens in new tab), ‘so it’s worth bearing this in mind when you’re making your decision.’ You can now choose the width of your louvres too.
