Doom 3D. Fully software 3D, in rust. Lots of small glitches to fix up but is otherwise pretty playable now. The old column based drawing is still in too, with floors drawn as columns instead of visplanes.

I've done my absolute best to mimic the full correct CRT aspect ration in my software 3D renderer for Doom. This is full 3D, including the level fully converted to polygons (with some glitches).

The wolf3d treasure sound effects are permanently etched in to my mind. Whenever I pick up a coin it’s what I hear…
And I’ll never forget the many late night Quake deathmatch tournaments over dialup with my feet jammed in the case of my overclocked Pentium 75 (to 120Mhz) to keep them warm.

The #ratrig v-core 4.0 with some 4.1 parts is taking shape now. I’ve got to do the rear panel and electronics enclosure then I can start wiring things up for initial test. Later I’ll need to replace the xy steppers with longer shaft high temp ones. Maybe build some smaller tool heads.

It’s just sheep dogs barking at sheep. The bigger the bark the higher the voltage and the faster the sheep move. More dogs is more sheep moving. Paddock gates are resistance. Sheep are electrons.

IF YOU'RE UNEMPLOYED IT'S NOT BECAUSE THERE ISNT ANY WORK 
JUST LOOK AROUND: A HOUSING SHORTAGE, CRIME, POLLUTION; WE NEED BETTER SCHOOLS AND PARKS.
WHATEVER OUR NEEDS, THEY ALL REQUIRE WORK.
AND AS LONG AS WE HAVE UNSATISFIED NEEDS, THERE'S WORK TO BE DONE.
SO ASK YOURSELE, WHAT KIND OF WORLD HAS WORK BUT NO JOBS. IT'S A WORLD WHERE WORK IS NOT RELATED TO SATISFYING OUR NEEDS, WORLD WHERE WORK IS ONLY RELATED TO SATISFYING THE PROFIT NEEDS OF BUSINESS.
THIS COUNTRY WAS NOT BUILT BY THE HUGE CORPORATIONS OR GOVERNMENT BUREAUCRACIES.
IT WAS BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO WORK. AND, IT IS WORKING PEOPLE WHO SHOULD CONTROL THE WORK TO BE DONE. YET, AS LONG AS EMPLOYMENT IS TIED TO SOMEBODY ELSE'S PROFITS, THE WORK WONT GET DONE.

Too many late nights building this damned thing. Ratrig v-core 4. I stripped my old vcore 3 and cut everything down, drilled for quick connectors, got various alloy plates from AliExpress. Still waiting on the Z axis rails though since those changes to big chonky things

Cat found the warmest spot to sleep. He won’t like it much when it starts printing though. And I better get some better carbon based filtration

The thingy that the anode goes to (black thing can’t remember the name) usually has focus and intensity dials on it. That can sometimes work okay but could also burn out faster. Been a while since I tweaked one. Like, over two decades.

I guess it is. Except for kids, the little runts at my boys school are immune to the cold or something. No shoes or socks all year round
