Several weeks ago, Phil Tippett's legendary animation studio in Berkeley, CA closed. An anonymous hero noticed a folder of CDs. This turned out to be hundreds of unseen hi-res images and videos from Star Wars, Robocop, Jurassic Park, etc. ~90 isos for you to browse: archive.org/details/tipp...

Phil, a balding Caucasian man, poses a model of the garthok, an antagonist from the Coneheads movie.

Phil, a balding caucasian man, points at some CG on a CRT computer monitor, as a younger man looks on. The screen shows a model of a dinosaur attacking a jeep, while there's an actual physical model of that event in the foreground for reference.

Stay tuned for a more in-depth deep dive in to how I uh, made a Vocaloid-kinda-thing in Wwise! You know when you chase an idea down but realise halfway through that it's going to be an absurd amount of work, but the rewards will be so worth it you just have to keep on pulling on that thread... 🙃

I wasn't expecting this but Prime 4 is making me miss the wii sensor bar. The wiimote controls from the Metroid Prime collection have always been a good fit, but with modern gyro aiming the calibration is always drifting out of sync and I'm constantly pressing the recalibrate button.

Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge? It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.

What I like about role-playing games is that they allow you to act out power fantasies that you could never achieve in real life.
