Free snow patrol chasing cars software for linux

Snow Path Formation Simulator is a program that models the process of people forming very distinct, and yet not always altogether logical looking, paths in the snow as they walk across open spaces.

The evolving condition of the snow is displayed graphically. This project may eventually mature into a screensaver.

Toy Cars is a physics-based 2D racing game for Linux. The graphics and the interface use SDL and OpenGL.

Toy Cars is partly inspired by Micromachines and partly by the old Atari ST game called Jupiters Masterdrive.

Snow-Apple provides an icon pack for Gnome.

Mark Finlay fairly converted the nautilus 2.0.x theme called Snow-Apple, to an icon theme for gnome 2.2.x. thanks to him.

Deathchase 3D project is a remake of the Spectrum arcade game of the same name.

Deathchase 3D is a remake of the Spectrum game of the same name, which is itself based on the sequence in "Return of the Jedi" chasing Stormtroopers through the forests of Endor on light-speeders.

Its a fake perspective 3D game: avoid the trees and shoot the bad guys ahead of you. It uses the SDL library.

It is written for Linux but should run on anything SDL supports.

FlatFrag is a multiplayer action shooter game. With its deathmatch fights it strives to be an entertaining arcade-style experience.
The game is played from a birds eye view and contains some 3D effects in order to make it not seem too flat. Currently only the game mode deathmatch is available, but others will probably be developed in the future.
The game has been built from scratch, though a few important libraries were used in the process. For example, OpenGL is used for fast 3D graphics and SDL provides the game with many cross-platform functions.
It is developed by a single person as a hobby project, but it is released under the terms of the GPL (GNU General Public License), which makes it Open Source software. So everybody is able to get the sourcecode and do his own changes to the project.
Main features:
- Cross-platform support currently for Linux and Microsoft Windows (planned: Mac OS X, BSD, though you can try it anywhere with the provided sourcecode)
- 3D graphics using OpenGL -- the game is played from a birds eye view, but the individual tiles are 3D cubes
- 3D sound using OpenAL -- 2D would probably be more appropriate
- SDL is used for cross-platform input, networking and window creation
- Multiplayer network games with up to 32 players (actually there is no fixed limit set yet)
- Support for Lua-scripted modifications (more like planned, but the console already expects Lua code as input)
- File types: Ogg Vorbis used for sound compression, PNG used for image compression
- Advanced particle system
- Dynamic lighting
- Bots
- Ridable cars and usable stationary guns
- 14 different weapons (some of them very unconventional)
- In-game map editor
- Game modes: deathmatch (more planned)
- Dedicated game server
- A server list function, which fetches a list of servers. You can also see the list of servers here.
- Completely free software -- free as in speech and free as in beer -- Licensed under the GPL

Debt Payoff Calculator is a simple set of PHP (5) scripts that will allow users of a web site to enter their monthly income, monthly budget, and outstanding debts.
The system can then generate a debt payoff report predicting how long it will take to pay off the debts.
The algorithm is:
1. Get total monthly income.
2. Get total monthly expenses.
3. Amount available for debt service is income - expenses;
4. Compute the "kicker" as %20 of Available, reduce available by this amount.
5. Compute the ratio of each debt to total debts.
6. Multiply Available by each ratio to get the potential payment.
7. For the smallest debt, add the kicker.
8. Test if any debts would be paid off
8a. If a debt could be paid off, make the payment, adjust the last debt pointer.
8b. Add any excess funds to the other potentials, using ratio2 which excludes the debt to be paid off.
8b. Repeat 8.
9. Make the remaining payments for debts not paid off.
Repeat 5-9 until all debts paid off.
Print the table of payments.
Enhancements:
- This release has been tested with Internet Explorer and Mozilla as clients.

SmoothSlideSaver is a KDE screensaver which shows images from a directory as an OpenGL slideshow. SmoothSlideSaver screensaver uses the famous Ken Burns effect and smoothly fades from one image to the next.

You dont need to worry about complicated configuration options, everything should run smoothly out of the box. Just select a directory with some nice pictures (e.g., your digital photo collection) and let the show begin.

There are prebuilt packages for Debian and Ubuntu (i386 architecture, only). You can either download them via the links below, or more conveniently, apt-get them:

Put one of the following lines into your /etc/apt/sources.list file:

deb http://web.inf.tu-dresden.de/~cw183155/smoothslidesaver debian-sarge/ # Debian stable "Sarge"

deb http://web.inf.tu-dresden.de/~cw183155/smoothslidesaver debian-unstable/ # Debian unstable (requires KDE 3.5.0 from Alioth (or experimental?))

deb http://web.inf.tu-dresden.de/~cw183155/smoothslidesaver ubuntu-breezy/ # (K)Ubuntu "Breezy"

Then do the usual steps to install the package:

#> apt-get update
#> apt-get install smoothslidesaver

If you have another Debian based distribution and/or architecture (or if the unstable packages cant be installed), you can easily build your own package. Add the following line to /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb-src http://web.inf.tu-dresden.de/~cw183155/smoothslidesaver source/

Then execute the following commands:

#> apt-get update
#> mkdir smoothslidesaver
#> cd smoothslidesaver
#> apt-get build-dep smoothslidesaver
#> apt-get source --compile smoothslidesaver
#> dpkg -i smoothslidesaver_*.deb

If you have another distribution installed on your computer, you will have to do it the hard way, sorry :-/ Download the source tarball from the link below, untar it and then execute the following steps in the source directory:

#> ./configure
#> make
#> make install

If anyone wants to provide an .rpm or Slackware package, please contact me (you can find my email address in the AUTHORS file).

Space Racer project is a OpenGL Car Game in a galactic environment.

It aims to be a clone of the well known Stunt Car Racer developed by Geff Crammond, author of Grand Prix I and II.

To play a 3dfx is recommanded. But TNT and Matrox Cards should now work.

If you have a 3dfx, you can take advantage of OpenGL 1.1 in adding this line in config.h:

#define SP_OPENGL_1_1
