explosions demo project is a SDL-based toy with fireworks in 3D space and neat visual effects.
"Explosions" is a simple SDL-based demo written in C which displays a faux-3D environment with small sprites.
Using the mouse, you can cause little sparks (or fireworks) to appear. Using the keyboard, you can change the angle of viewing.
You can also toggle a number of nifty effects, like blur, fade, dissolve, rotation and zoom.
The C source-code is fully commented, and should be useful for learning some simple SDL and interesting effects code.

Myah Linux 3.0 Tech Demo 2
Myah is a simple and easy to use Operating System for standard Intel or AMD powered computers. more>>
Myah is an Operating System based on the Linux kernel. Myah is a "Live CD", so no installation is required. Myah Linux Operating System runs right off the CD, putting whatever system files it needs into RAM only.
You simply start up your PC with the Myah CD. Once youre done with Myah, simply restart your PC. The CD will eject automatically and all will be exactly as it was before.
Our goal is to bring you the best free Operating System and to inform PC owners they dont have to spend their money on Windows or OS X. There is something better, and its free. Whenever we improve Myah or Linux in general those updates will be free.
There are many Linux-based Live CDs our there. So weve made sure Myah is different by including the programs youre going to use on a daily basis. To Windows users the unfamiliar Linux program names can be confusing. So weve changed the menus to make sense. For instance Kopete, a Linux instant messenger service, is simply called Messenger.
Programs have been added to the task bar for quick and easy access. Also: the user isnt hassled for any information during startup. Myah boots up completely on its own. It starts in the main administrative account called Root.
The user has full rights. And since Myah runs right off the CD you cant break it.This whole website is committed to bringing people the best of Linux and its software, so we advertise many other Linux Operating Systems. As a plus for people who cant leave Windows (tm), we offer the Live CD. And its all free for everyone to use. So please: dont waste your money.
Main features:
- Its just as easy as putting the Myah CD in your computer and rebooting. Everything is automatic, detecting your hardware, even your internet connection. All this is done without making any permenet changes to your computer. At anytime just reboot the computer, and your normal system is back.
- Myah uses the KDE destop, that comes with a great set of utilities. Control Center you have the power to tune the system as you like. K3b is Myahs CD burning programs. K3b is powerful easy to use program.
- Myah lets you breeze though the Internet with Firefox. And if you have ever wanted to try creating you own Websites NVU is included. NVU makes it possible to create professional looking Webpages, without knowing html. Just point and click.
- If office software is a must, Open Office has every thing you need. While working is nice to have something to listed to. Realplayer can handle radio stations form Shoutcast, or even let you check out there latest videos online.
- Myahs messanger Kopete will let you stay connected to with anyone, no matter what service they might use. And for all those photos Gimp is a complete solution. Myah comes Jam packed with many other programs, all in a simple and easy to use menu. Just click the penguin and begin.
Enhancements:
- Myah OS 3 Tech Demo 2 is now available. This is still a development release but it should be fairly stable and have a well rounded selection of applications. It should mirror what the Xfce version of 3.0 will look like. There are still three objectives that need to be met before 3.0 stable: firstly, to get the system well tested to weed out any bugs or setting changes, secondly, to work on Myahs package management system, and finally, there is still no actual installer. Both binary packages and source packages will be made available and since the bulk of the system has been completed, development should come much faster from now on.

Postal 0.67
Postal is a SMTP and POP benchmark suite. more>>
Postal suite currently consists of two programs, Postal and Rabid. Postal (the mad postman) is a program that will deliver mail as fast as possible via the SMTP protocol to test mail server performance.
Rabid (the mad Biff) will eat mail via the POP protocol as fast as possible and measure POP server performance. All messages sent via Postal have MD5 checksums appended, and Rabid will check the MD5 to ensure that the messages are not being corrupted.
It works by taking a list of user names and applying random transformations to them to get the FROM and TO addresses, this is because if each email address takes 30 bytes of storage then 1,000,000 accounts would take 30M of RAM. 3,000,000 accounts would take 90M of RAM which would be more than the memory in my test machine (this would cause thrashing and make the benchmark invalid), and it would take ages to load all that data from the hard drive. Using 100,000 accounts and applying a transformation to map them to 30M accounts is a much more efficient use of resources.
When sending the mail the subject and body will be random data. A header field X-Postal will be used so that procmail can easily filter out such email just in case you accidentally put your own email address as one of the test addresses. ;)
For Debian the best thing to do is to do "apt-get install postal", if you dont want to use the version supplied with your version of Debian you can build a Debian package in the usual manner.
Change to the directory containing the unpacked source and use the command:
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -tc -us
That will create a .deb in the parent directory.
For Red Hat etc there is a portslave.spec file to allow for building with
the "rpm -b" command.
For Solaris use the command "make -C sun" to build a package in /var/spool/pkg
(make sure you have write access to that directory).
For other Unix setup "./configure ; make install" should do an install.
Enhancements:
- The license was changed to GPLv3.

KDE Internet share wizard is a Kommander script that can help you share your internet connection over LAN.
Overview:
I was on a LAN and I needed to share my internet connection because we didnt have any router.
I found this to be quite difficult, but after some searching on internet I found a very good explanation for making this work.
Now, Ive made a WindowsXP like internet connection sharing guide for all who wants to share their internet connection easy and fast.
Usage:
copy the tar.gz file contents into /usr/bin and then run:
kdeinternetshare.sh - English
For all those who are unsure how to use the guide, it should be good to stick to the default settings.
This is only a quite simple guide so suggestions and improvments are welcome.
System requirements:
- Kommander

DropTeam 1.2.2 DEMO
DropTeam is an online multiplayer FPS for Linux. more>>
DropTeam is an online multiplayer FPS for Linux.
DropTeam combines accurate physics and ballistic systems, intelligent and realistic unit and weaponry capabilities with fast paced action set in a stark future of humanity. This Public Test is being offered in three different formats. One for Mac, one for Windows and one for Linux. This marks the first title published by Battlefront.com to offer Linux support!
Main features:
- A rich, fleshed out universe complete with a engaging back story and detailed history.
- Realistic combat system that models projectile/armor penetration, various munition types, and interior vehicle damage in detail.
- Huge, detailed and varied alien landscapes each planet accurately modeling its own gravity and atmospheric density, radically changing the tactical situation.
- Map sizes up to a massive 1000 (!) square kilometers.
- Terrain height resolutions from small ridges and vehicle fighting positions to towering hills and mountains.
- Deformable terrain with engineering vehicles digging out trenches in real time, ordnance created surface cratering and even trees toppling over under artillery fire.
- Dynamic environmental effects include building destruction and vehicles exploding and flipping over.
- Support for enhanced graphics effects including advanced shaders and High Dynamic Range rendering.
- Terrain uses dynamic tessellation (continuous Level of Detail) to render high resolution terrain at large sizes.
- Up to 16 human players or more supported, depending on system specs. Maximum online players realistically only limited by game server bandwidth, CPU and RAM.
More background and info on the game can be found on the DropTeam webpage located here.
The purpose of this release is to test DropTeams network functionality with a large number of players. Anyone can play for free in order to help us test DropTeam but this build has the following important restrictions:
1. Single player is disabled. You can only play network games with this release. The full version of the game includes single player skirmish games and a single player campaign.
2. This release only allows you to play 2 scenarios. The full version of the game includes 21 scenarios with more available for free download after release.
3. This is a test release, which means the game isnt finished yet. It definitely still has bugs. We greatly appreciate your help in finding and fixing them all!
Apart from these restrictions, this is a fully functional release. Players can use all of the dozens of vehicles and deployable items in the game. The two included scenarios are "Ice Field" and "Raid". Ice Field takes place on the frozen wasteland of Arcanum, a once-inhabitable planet orbiting Luytens Star that has had its climate devastated by bombardments from the Mu Arae Entente. The Raid scenario takes place on an inhabitable moon called Hopewell. Hopewell orbits a gas giant in the Wolf 9773 star system. Almost half of the moons surface, called "The Scorch", is a radioactive Hell created by the destruction of an antimatter station that used to orbit the gas giant. The remainder of Hopewell has recovered from this disaster and is once again beginning to flourish with vegetation and a growing human population.
This release includes everything needed to connect to servers and play on the Internet or on Local Area Networks on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X Tiger. It also includes everything needed for players to run their own public or private servers. This is important since there will be a limited number of public servers made available by TBG. We plan to run only 6 servers for this public test release so players might need to run their own servers if they want to play frequently.

Apart from these restrictions, this is a fully functional release. Players can use all of the dozens of vehicles and deployable items in the game. The two included scenarios are "Ice Field" and "Raid". Ice Field takes place on the frozen wasteland of Arcanum, a once-inhabitable planet orbiting Luytens Star that has had its climate devastated by bombardments from the Mu Arae Entente. The Raid scenario takes place on an inhabitable moon called Hopewell. Hopewell orbits a gas giant in the Wolf 9773 star system. Almost half of the moons surface, called "The Scorch", is a radioactive Hell created by the destruction of an antimatter station that used to orbit the gas giant. The remainder of Hopewell has recovered from this disaster and is once again beginning to flourish with vegetation and a growing human population.
This release includes everything needed to connect to servers and play on the Internet or on Local Area Networks on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X Tiger. It also includes everything needed for players to run their own public or private servers. This is important since there will be a limited number of public servers made available by TBG. We plan to run only 6 servers for this public test release so players might need to run their own servers if they want to play frequently.
