Bringing in a New Year
Posted by: Ruel Knudson in DPnP, Developer Blog, Overall DevelopmentThe end of 2009 brings some sadness for me. Yet again, DPnP is not released, and still has much development to do. It also means another new year without any significant Sagas releases. I am hoping that 2010 is the year of Ironwood’s big coming up, but that all remains to be seen.
As you may have noticed, I am still releasing side tracks. The development of these one shots is a flexing of unused muscles for me. Its a way of staying in shape. I love writing, as that is who I am in the great scheme of things. I am not really a programmer, not yet. This is something I am developing into. However, the writer in me is growing ever frustrated with the lack of any actual progress on other project development. I am trying to satisfy that need with the occasional sidetrack. I’d like to have one out every month or so from now on. It helps me to stay on track with DPnP as well, by offering a diversion and exercising the program a bit. Even sidetracks are being developed with the DPnP’s Campaign Resource Manager. So it helps in a great many ways.
Furthering this goal has been some updates to my PC, including the upgrade from XP to Windows 7. I am very happy with the upgrade and completely surprised with the aesthetic changes it rendered to DPnP. This means some adjustments on that end, but nothing too major. Over all, it looks much better running on Windows 7 than it does on XP, which is very exciting for me.
Unfortunately I don’t have any grand New Year announcements, and I am not making any silly promises. I am only hoping that 2010 will be the year for Ironwood.
Until then, Happy Gaming!
