好小子... Finally~~~ →
Finally found it, the comic book I’ve been looking for years… one of the best comic book series I’ve read…
“I gave her my heart, and she gave me a… pen.”
– John Cusack, Say Anything… (1989).
hard work = better job
I was looking (testing) for a job in Akihabara News which is related to “creative” and “tech”. This is one of those I found, with 3M to 4M annually, and lots of requirement too!
Without all these requirements or knowledge about tech, anyone who’s planning to live and work in Japan is gonna end up like that father from Tokyo Sonata — becoming the cleaning guy,...
緑物は奇麗な～～～
Was searching through the net for some green wallpaper, and I found this.
Never know Fujitsu has something like this in stores if I never went to look for it… so wanna buy one.
The cons of learning foreign languages...
Back in the days, when I’m sick of listening to normal instrumental music while studying, I would switch to some foreign language music (which I don’t understand, if I do understand the language, ie English, I will get distracted by following the lyrics).
I usually prefer to Jap-hits, and would treat foreign language as the new “instrument” in music. Well, since I...
ドラマの練習
今日は、ドラマの練習があります。 このクラスで俺とみんなさんだいたい二じゅ人がいます。 そして、先週の練習は今の練習より難しいです。 先生は、俺たちのパフォーマンスがにぎやかじゃないでいたと述べた。 それから、もっと練習必要があります。 でもさ、もちろん俺たちがにぎやかじゃない、この練習の前に午前九時から午後七じまでクラスがありました。 そして、俺たちは本当に疲れました。。。

AS3 Notes 0002
Cannot place an Else in another Else?
While playing with the if conditional statement in my free time, I uses an Else If inside an If statement:
line 1: if (x<=5){
line 2: if (x==1){
line 3: statement}
line 4: else if (x==2){
line 5: statement}
line 6: }
line 7: else if (x>=5){
line 8: }
and error shows up in the compiler, stating that the the “Else if” in line 4 is an...
Defeated...
Soon after seeing myself “defeated” by myself, I realized that I’ve been a dreamer more than a person who’s trying to be more successful than the others (there’s a shorter phrase for that, but I’ve forgotten it when writing this post… words like “warrior”, “winner”, and “successor” were floating in my mind for this).

AS3 Notes 0001
Accessing main timeline variables from MovieClip in AS3:
While working on my game, I stumbled across the same AS3 problem I had a while ago but was never solve. I googled and searched through tons of results and finally found the perfect one which works in AS3:
MovieClip(root).jakel168
or
MovieClip(parent).jakel168
Replace “jakel168” with either the variable or the movie clip you...

Surprise to see GTA: San Andreas staying at the top of the “Most Popular” title after so many years since it’s release…
Controlling the tics...
Just a few days ago, probably last week, my Tourette’s troubles have come back to me again. I don’t know how I get it back, but it’s been bothering me for days, I might have even bothered some of my friends during exam.
This type of tics which got up to me first appear a long time ago, when I was about 13 or so. It’ll be gone for a moment, and then got back to me again,...

WatchIron Man 2 new trailer… way too awesome!!!
クリスマス－パテイのプレセント。。。
今週のクリスマスーパテイのプレセントを買いのを忘れです。 それから、プレセントとして私の日本語の小説を取るよ。
この本は新しいですが、本の発行日は一九九六年、そして平成八年ですね！
Iron Man new image… awesome!!! Can’t wait till next year’s May… Luckily there’s Avatar to replace my anticipation!!!
Better, not that idiotic... solution for Material...
Been spending a lot of my time doing my VR3 project, learnt lots of stuff through it.
One of the stuff I learnt was I’m an idiot. I’ve found myself going through all those troubles of using “pro-boolean” or “attach” before applying a texture to a pro-booleaned (-ed) model, when I finally realize that there’s no such need at all.
All I’ve gotta do...
Stuff I need to buy this weekend:
1. A secret present for next week’s Christmas party.
2. A pair of black shoes for presentation…
3. Something other than Oreo… I’m sick of eating it every single morning.
4. A grey shirt… not gonna wear the white one for next Wednesday’s presentation.
5. If possible, a cool white tie…
That’s all, JakeL168’s out…

My 3ds Max material slot space saving solution...
Wanted to post this up for a long time. But I’ve always wanted to try it out myself before posting this solution-sort-of post.
So, I’ve got myself more than 500 models in a scene in 3ds Max 9 (due to the project I was working on). If I were to texture them all using the baked texture, I don’t think there’s any space left after I’d textured 24 of the model in the...

VRML's Terrain Problem and Solution
Making a note that the height of the camera does affect the height of the terrain in VRML. Having the camera at a height way below the height of terrrain (an option in Helper/VRML97/NavInfo) will cause the VRML to go haywire. This will only happen when there’s only one camera inside the VRML scene.
Before I figured all these out, I was placing my camera at a height of 2m when my terrain...

Vertex mistakes...
Reminding anyone who’s as inexperience (in 3ds Max) as me, when you are editing the poly of a 3d model do not check on the “By Vertex” thingy under the “Selection”. Unless if you’ve found a good use of it in somewhere else… go ahead…
This has been bugging me for a certain period of time… I’ve restarted 3ds Max 5 times, my notebook...
Rhythm game this time...?
Someone from GDC just sent me a mail saying that there’s gonna be a flash game making contest, held by LG… first prize: RM10,000!!! … And a trophy for institute… who cares?
Hopefully I can win this thing… I really want to… so badly. At least let me have the 3rd prize…
So my plan is to make a rhythm game. It may be lame to a certain people but… I...

Mio-chan is the best (hottest) of K-ON… that’s why…
Not a good reason to get lazy?
Been paying really good attention on my character modeling assignment, when some fella cooked some stuff which has an extremely distinct pungent smell. Even after 2 hours… the smell still hasn’t gone yet.

Smart and Easy
Can’t stop thinking about how awesome Tumblr and Google Chrome is. This would be… if I’m not mistaken… something which I was looking for.
I’m seriously sick of Blogspot, Wordpress, and Live Journal, though…
