Intro
Skills: Programming, Scripting, Building, Sculpting, Mesh modeling, Material mapping, UV mapping, "Seamless" Texturing, User interface design(HUDs), Animation, and Architecture.
I guess you could say I'm an ace of all SL trades.
My skill set came from video game design on indie titles for the PC and Xbox 360.
I try my hardest to extend sl's possibilities by bringing real world integration and standards to the sl scripting database and teaching math at a practical standpoint.
Our Gearwolf company basically invented a box factory that creates the boxes people think inside of, that's how far outside the box we love to think. Due to this standard it takes projects much longer to be completed.
My inspiration to do all this and work this hard is from one of my scripting teachers and mr Nexii Malthus.
Medium-time Resident of 6 something years.
14 years of modeling experience in real world video games (mesh/voxel).
10 years of programming experience in a variety of languages.

B-Spline Tank Track System
A B-Spline driven system that allows bending many prims near one another in a B-Spline loop using terrain normal raycasting to generate knott vectors for a tank track to follow.
LSL
A few contributions and cleanups in areas of the wiki. Most of my contributions are found under the examples page.
some additions to Nexii's interpolation library
Mesh you're doing it WRONG...watch this PLEASE

NOTE: To you stupid mesh clothing designers that make irregular tessellated clothing
Regular quad tessellation - for rigged clothing
Irregular triangle tessellation - for cloth simulation
Two GREAT examples of how NOT to model clothing. Top is quads however it has way to high of a polycount. Bottom is just plain stupid you should NEVER use irregular tessellated mesh for anything anywhere expect cloth simulation.
