D-1 (probably)

So, D-Day is almost upon us. I'm now on week 7 of my maybe slightly optistic 4 week schedule. I've back tracked my work and from my reconning I'm actually just starting week 5. This takes into account all the things that got in the way of doing a full days work. Or at least that's what I keep telling myself!

My dear and beloved car was sold last week. I need some money in order to live jobless for a while and the car had to go. Instead I've got a healthy bank balance which I'm trying not to spend. I nearly gave in to temptation and bought a Mac Book, with the logic that I'd get more work done when I'm with my lady at the weekends and away from my Mac Mini. Just before I clicked the add to basket button I tried the latest iAtkos Hackintosh disk on my Acer laptop and to my supprise it worked flawlessly! Sound, network, wirless etc etc. This saved me £800 on the Mac Book and did mean I got a few extra hours of work done at the weekend.

I was down to 3 bugs earlier until I actually gave it a good bashing and now I'm back up to 6. I would have had them done tonight if I hadn't been so stupid. I've spent the last 3 hours working on the one font bug. I'm getting artifacts on the characters when displaying fonts from my automatically generated bitmap font. I don't understand why. I checked and double checked all of the generation and drawing code and put in a load of debug. I finally gave up at 1am and built a test version and downloaded it to my phone to give it a quick play in bed. It is at this point i've noticed the fonts are displaying fine on iPhone. It's yet another bug of the emulator and I've spent the last 3 hours chasing an emulator bug. Grrrrrr!

Anyhoo, I'll finish up in the morning and hopefully not find any more bugs!

Night all.
