So I did. Backed it right up to the Linux server. Samba. Copied the entire directory structure just fine.
Just not the files.
Oops.
Main computer crash. Ahh, good I have backup. What's that you say? No files?
Darn.
Nice night tonight. Barb's boss at the museum had a group of us over for dinner at his house. Prodigious amounts of excellent food, good conversation, and a marvy design sense. It was like a grown-up dinner party.
But when did I become a grown-up?
Stupid distractions: learning how to use the Unreal editor to create DeusEx levels. Not exactly resume-building material, but cool fun. Decided to take an old D&D module and map the castle into Deus Ex. First flub is that the scale is wrong. The castle is about twice as big as it should be. I may see if there is a way of globally scaling everything, but if not, I just have a really big castle.
It is kinda cool to actually see a 3D visualition though.
