  • Ce-i cu blogu’ asta ?

    Details at "About" Page. Postez pe acest blog pur si simplu fiindca imi place si sunt dornic sa impartasesc cu toata lumea experimentele mele, filmarile, chestiile DIY si multe alte lucruri. Ma simt eu mai bine daca o fac :). Blogul este in engleza, fiind o limba de circulatie internationala. Cred ca majoritatea va descurcati sa o intelegeti ;). Details at "About" Page.

  • I finished the linking all the videos of the “S-Star” competition ( a music&fashion competition that’s been held at my school in february). I’ll hopefully upload the video, cut in several parts(it’s 2 hours), sometime soon. The rendering took about 15 hours on my Intel Pentium D 3.2 ghz xD .
  • I finished my cubicle entry for www.twhl.co.za “TWHL Cubicles” mini compo. Not much to say about it anyway, so here’s a link to download it if you want(includes screenshot :P ): LINK_DOWNLOAD&SCREENSHOT
  • I got myself into the mapping team for a new PQL project(the same team that produced Issues and Reissues :) ). It’s almost the same thing, but now the mapping is done in Spirit of Half-Life. The maximum length of the level each mapper can post is 2 maps.I’ll be mapping something puzzle-themed with custom resources. All the maps will be connected through a hub :) . Right now people from the HL communities are not aware of this project as the team is just growing up right now. I already started mapping my entry :D .
  • This week I’ve done a “not so cool” experiment, but hey… I like experiments :D . I made some ZnSO4(CuSO4(s) + Zn(s) = Cu(s) + ZnSO4(aq)). In a time period of about an hour, the blue coloured solution lost its color and some brownish-black deposits formed on the bottom of the glass. I think that’s the copper. Still, it’s interesting I can make experiments at home :D . (CuSO4 is easy to get, it’s found at gardening stores I guess…. it’s used to protect the grapes).
  • I reaaaally want to make a new mini-film….
  • I reaaaally have to finish my project for french =)).

Coming soon

Posted by sjackm on 23 February 2010

Last Thursday( and the days before Thursday) I helped organizing the Fashion\Style\Karaoke( S-Star) Competition at my school, and also made photographs and filmed. Now it remains to compose this footage and photos to a presentable video.

That’s what I’m working on now. I’ll post it on my blog too when it’ll be finished.

Meanwhile, I hope I’ll be able to go for a walk in the nature, the weather starts to be more beautiful everyday here. If weather will be favorable, I’ll go with some friends in the forest after some snowdrops :)

HL Rooms- A TWHL project

Posted by sjackm on 11 January 2010


It’s the first Half-Life modification where I participated. It’s a project that’s been initiated on http://www.twhl.co.za, practically anyone who wanted could make a room and then the person who managed the entire project ( Captain Terror from TWHL) would include in the a chain of interconnected rooms. A lot of this kind of projects have failed, but this one resisted.
My map( a dedication for MuzzleFlash,now “The Mighty Atom” from TWHL) was too large and had too many features to be included in that chain, so it was included as a bonus map. You can acces it from the “portal map” where you can see the credits, play the mod, and other things. My map is represented by a spinning globe, near a “Jim Carry” flag( my avatar from TWHL).

Have fun playing!

School Project Uploaded !!!

Posted by sjackm on 1 April 2009

I finally finished uploading the school project, which is the project I’ve worked hard on. It’s called Pupils&Their Hobbies and it’s telling stories about a few pupils in our school (GRI SUNCUIUS), including me !!

I was the video producer, so that’s why I’m posting it on vimeo and on my blog for easy finding and viewing.

Here’s the link to it ( Videos-By-Me) :  VIEW PROJECT

I had to split the project in half because vimeo won’t accept video files greater than 500 mb for a free account :P .
