Hey guys,
So I have finnaly got my blog up and running. Some of you will know that I have been trying to find time for this for almost a year. I even interviewed a few members a couple of months ago but now I might have to re-interview as the information is now probably out of date.

So you can view the Blog here. Please comment and visit the blog.

I plan for this to be almost like a news letter for FPSC so people can see whats happening in FPSC and the community.

For this to work I will need your help. If you have a new game comming out, new model pack, MOD or Program to do with FPSC then please email me and I will include it in the blog. Sort of like free advertising.

I am also looking for eager people to help write some tutorials. The tutuorials can be on anything even stuff that is that relevant to FPSC. You will be signed on as an author and can write and publish a post whenever you want! If you think you are up to the task please Email me: [email protected]

So please tell me what you think and visit the blog!

VISIT!

Cool, I think every site that's dedicated to FPSC, helps it grow and draws in users, which is good for everyone. I'm adding it to my favorites menu.

Nice!

If you want really good screen recording quality you should download CamStudio (it's free). I use it for my FPSC video tutorials (example) and it records FPSC and other desktop programs at HD resolution. For in-game capture I use Fraps (not free).

It is very important to also download the Lossless Codec for CamStudio and remember to activate it inside CamStudio after install. The link is found right next to the CamStudio download.

Dr Parsnips your website is Fantastic. I am a noob when it comes to using Milkshape3d but I'm having an absolute blast with it. It will be sometime before I'm as accomplished as you. I personally thank you for your tutorials, and for your models that you so graciously provide on your site. I hope you have much success with the site and with all your modeling adventures.

Regards,

KillShadow 3 big Frothy ones for you

Okay, Update on tutorials, just finished my first tut on blendar's interface, about 10 mins (because of youtube's restrictions) I've uploaded it to youtube and just need it to process, and keep in mind this video covers the BASICS of blender's interface
