The Behemoth Teams Latest Creation

The Behemoth is showing of a very early version of an upcoming game, it looks really cute but we will have to wait until 2010 for a release.

We learn: It’s a platformer, it’s very multiplayer-orientated (as if you couldn’t have guessed that Behemoth would make a multiplayer game) and it’s to be released 2010. Sometime. From what it looks like, it would appear that there are both multiplayer co-op and versus modes bundled in there to enjoy. Let’s hope we’ll be getting some online action on the go come next year!

HP Pavilion dv9740eo Windows XP

I have just “downgraded” vista to xp because of some weird memory problem and overall annoyance with that OS. Last time i had trouble installing graphic drivers and audio drivers. This time the graphic drivers was quickly solved by using the drivers from driverpacks.net but audio was still a very annoying problem to solve. But i solved it at last, this is how i did it…

First i downloaded ConexantHDAudio 221_XP.zip from here.

Then i needed to check out some information from the unknown audio device in device manager. So start Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager, select the unknown device, right click and choose properties then go to the detail tab, now there should be a line looking something like this:

HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_5051&SUBSYS_103C30CF&REV_1000\4&183BC4AF&0&0001

We need the SUBSYS information, in this case “103C30CF”. Remember this for later…

Now extract the zip file and open up the WiSVHe5.inf file in here we will find a row that looks like this:

[Conexant]
%HdAudioFunctionDriver.Hermosa5051.DeviceDesc% = HdAudModel,HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_5051&SUBSYS_103C30CD
%HdAudioFunctionDriver.Hermosa5051.DeviceDesc% = HdAudModel,HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_5051&SUBSYS_103C30D6

And after the last row we need to add a new row and use the “103C30CF” from earlier, so it will look like this:

[Conexant]
%HdAudioFunctionDriver.Hermosa5051.DeviceDesc% = HdAudModel,HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_5051&SUBSYS_103C30CD
%HdAudioFunctionDriver.Hermosa5051.DeviceDesc% = HdAudModel,HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_5051&SUBSYS_103C30D6
%HdAudioFunctionDriver.Hermosa5051.DeviceDesc% = HdAudModel,HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_5051&SUBSYS_103C30CF

Now i could run the setup.exe and the driver started working.

Happy Valentine’s Day

A new design for the site

I have been quite busy lately and therefore haven’t had the opportunity to really update this blog, i have had several things that i felt like writing about but just never got to. Instead I’m challenging myself again with trying to make a better site out of this by making a new design. My inspiration have been various pages, some like Vimeo and Twitter and some not that known like sIFRvault and Power to the poster. This is the Photoshop sketches I’ve  got so far:

Free photoshop template

I found this quite old photoshop thing i made, so i decided to give it out for free. At first i think i was planning on using it for some kind of preloader in flash but it could probably be used for something else.

Magazine 13 posted some really cool and interresting photos taken by satellite of the planet earth.

The Lena River is the tenth longest river in the world and its delta is the largest area of protected wilderness in Russia. Desolate frozen tundra for most of the year, every May the region is transformed into a lush wetland that becomes home to several species of rare Siberian wildlife for several months. The striking blue expanse above the coral-like delta is the freezing waters of the Arctic Ocean.
