New graphics card

So I'm getting a new graphics card seen as though my current PC only has integrated
graphics. Since I'm on a bit of a tight budget, I'm buying the Sapphire PCI Express R7 260X 2GB graphics card for £86 off amazon (at time of purchase). I was recommended this one by a
friend as its within my small budget, yet still got great specs (for the price), as shown below:

Sonic pi

Just downloaded sonic pi, this is a great little sound synthesiser in which you
program your own music using code and I've seen some pretty good demonstrations.
 
I'll see what I can do then I may upload some depending on whether or not I can actually
make something of decent sound


The bling sting's tail fail

Well will, what do you expect when your tails made out of glass? Not

500 likes for a facecam!

Well, WhiteSky has done a 5 nights at freddy's 2 video which has a great ending...

...But no facecam. However, he's said if he gets 500 likes in a month then he'll add a facecam.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0TuDJJBUEU

Is the link, watch the video and tell me you don't wish he had a facecam. Leave a like so next time we can watch him scream like a little kid again. Lets get to 500 likes to make him do it XD

Gmod - 5 nights at freddy's video

Well, since I am  currently at 79 subs, I'm think about my 100 subscriber
special. So, me and a fellow youtuber are going to scare ourselves stupid as
we play the 5 nights at freddy's Gmod map. Keep subbing and we will get to work on it.

Robocraft

Well, me and a few friends recorded some robocraft videos yesterday so
keep an eye out on my channel soon for some rather entertaining videos of us
3 arguing and smashing and failing ( and just generally failing). Here's a short raw
clip from our misadventures.....


Tuesday 25 November 2014

A bit one sided....

Well, I had the audio fixed.....

.....then the rendering unfixed it somehow.....

.....so apologies about the lopsided sound, I'll get it fixed again and more permanently next time. Here's the link to my latest minecraft video anyway, and enjoy the show of basic enchanting and a mining montage of mostly fails:

Gmod video - Pedo bear?

Erm, well I'm not sure who came up with this game mode for Garry's mod 
but it is one crazy whacked up game. Whoever made it was either drunk is not
right in the head XD. Here's the link the to video on WhiteSky's channel:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2iuZ9miBbY&list=LLh0S629bESFfA0A0RmeUX9g

A short video, but amusing none the less.

Tuesday 18 November 2014

About time.......

Its taken ages but I've finally figured out why my screen capture wouldn't record
Garry's mod. Now that its sorted, you can expect some Gmod videos coming soon.....
 
How does a horror map sound?

channel art

Well, after making me a minecraft thumbnail, adam decided to make me
some new channel art.
In my opinion, it looks a hell of a lot better than the one I made, though
the "I'm John....(what more do you need?)" is over doing it a bit, me thinks.....

unscribered trailer

Well, youtube want channels to have trailer on they're channel for unsubscribed
visitors, not sure what to do for that but got a few ideas. Could still do with some
inspiration though.....any ideas anyone?

Wednesday 12 November 2014

old game?

Well, I tried a first-made game by a friend of mine which he used to unity to
make the game with. For a first attempt, its ok, but it had a few bugs.....

....Looking forward to when I give it a go.....

Tuesday 11 November 2014

Thumbnails

well, since I needed new thumbnails for the rest of my videos, I thought I'd give
it a shot and made this:
Personally, I'm rather happy with it. It's not exactly professional but its a lot better
than my previous attempts at thumbnails.

minecraft series : finally built the house......

Well, it took me long enough, but I finally built my house on my minecraft series
So check out my channel because it will soon be edited and uploaded. Thanks to OrangeHat HD for doing my thumbnails, here's the link to his channel, and his
collaborating channel (as he hasn't uploaded any videos yet), WhiteSkyHD:



You should check out their videos for laughs and play throughs.

website design

Well, this is for a college assignment, not for fun, but I really suck at websites.....
.....not that I've ever been any good at designing things. I think I'll stick with programming in VB and learning python and C++ for now

Sunday 2 November 2014

So much for learning......

Well, I had intended on learning how to use blender
and unity this half term......
....but instead I ended up doing coursework for must of it......
....the joys of college life, damnit

Hearthstone fails....

This doesn't seem to be my finest series.
Check out the latest game at

So I've started to add a few basic ones to my vids.....

Lava stream

How often do you see a river of lava?

Programming has it's uses......

Well, this is normally not what I do with programming but somebody
in my IT decided to start to mess with my stuff so....
.....I left him with this little program which made a troll face bounce around his screen.
This application doesn't show on the task bar, task manager, nor do keyboard short cuts
work on closing the program. revenge is sweet....

sorry folks

Sorry for the lack of hearthstone videos as promised. Due to the problem
with the audio (or rather, the lack of the audio), I haven't been able to upload them. The
audio's to messy for a decent video. To make up for it, I'll  do some more hearthstone videos this
weekend and upload them before the end of the weekend.

New texture pack

Well, its about time I got a new texture pack, and I think I quite
like the look of spahx

Am i dreaming....?

Holy hell! Now this I could get used to!
Before anyone starts saying "oh, he's cheated here", I've not......though it feels
a little cheaty. In the 1.8 update of minecraft, mojang have expanded on the customize
world choice so that you can now decide how often you want the ores to spawn and at
what world height! The picture above is a result of setting all the ores spawn to maximum
which makes it a little more difficult to find cobble......

Don't trust microsoft....

Don't know if anyone else has been having these problems but automatic updates
for windows keeps killing my PC, hence the lack of posts for a while....
 
Why the hell did I bother having them.......
Microsoft will be to busy playing minecraft as they've just bought it.....

recording fails

Well, me and a friend did some more hearthstone videos yesterday, and
he forgot to record his audio.......well these next few hearthstone videos
are going to be fun to edit, though given the fail I did during gameplay,
I can't really complain.....check my channel over the next few days to see
these videos and watch more epic fails

Blender: easy to use!?!

First thought on blender: too many bloody controls!!!!
Second thought on blender: how do I rotate the model?
*half an hour later...*
"Oh, wait I use the keyboard to rotate...."
maybe I should stick with the games development rather than
the graphics design...

Minecraft auto-chicken

Well, I got fed up of farming and cattle herding so I've almost
finished making a machine that will hatch, kill, collect, sort and cook
the chickens for me, just need a bit more time on the sorter. Free chicken anyone?

Unity 3d & Blender

So to kick off developing better games, I've downloaded Unity 3d games
engine and Blender models design. Once I've learnt how to use these, I'll be
starting to put together some games and set up for download. After vigorous
testing of course.

Starting up

Hey everyone,
so this blog is so people can see more about my YouTube videos and
also get to see posts about other projects I may have going on. With this blog,
I'll be keeping everyone up to date on all my latest programming/ games developing
and also my latest gaming moves off the camera. If you have any suggestions for
games I should try, videos that you want, or a certain kind of game you want made,
let me know and I'll do my best to comply.
