Projects

This section contains some libraries and game-related stuff I’ve been making. All projects come with documented source code where applicable.

Active Projects

These projects are under active development. Please refer to the individual pages for system requirements.

• Tektosyne is a utility library that offers helper types and methods for many diverse areas, from MAPI support to A* pathfinding. The download package contains GUI samples, unit tests, and a stand-alone class reference.
• Civilization Stuff comprises modified XML files for Sid Meier’s Civilization IV by Firaxis Games to improve game balance and reduce AI cheating.
• Hexkit is a strategy game system with included scenario editor. In addition to the self-installing binary package, you may download the complete source code, a stand-alone class reference, and extensive PDF documentation for game and editor.

Discontinued Projects

These projects have been discontinued but are still available for download.

• Collections is a set of strongly-typed collection templates for use with CodeSmith, a commercial .NET template expansion utility. This project is discontinued because the Tektosyne library now provides equivalent functionality based on .NET 2.0 generics.
• Galactopedia is a utility program for the excellent space strategy game Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords by Stardock Corporation. The Galactopedia shows exhaustive information on all objects and technologies defined by the game.
• Star Chess is a tiny space strategy game that vaguely resembles chess and employs a modified chess algorithm for its computer players. Three files are available for download: the ready-to-run binary package, the source code package, and a PDF document discussing the computer player algorithms.
