URU Exploration, Mortality Guild, & Trac

Posted in News at 6:30 pm by Chris

The past several months have kept me busy developing, designing, and learning new tricks. :)

My best achievement so far has been the new design that I’ve implemented on the URU Exploration website. (A fan-based website for the new Myst Online: URU Live MMORPG.) The site takes advantage of one of the common interfaces in the game (that of turning the page of a book), to display the content that is posted to the site using a WordPress blog.

Thanks to JavaScript, CSS, and a whole lot of time, I’ve also been able to put together (with a little help from Brendan Dorr), an Imager for the website. This item is essentially a slideshow that is displayed in the form of another interface commonly found in the game.

Check it out here: URU Exploration

GuildAxis.net, (on which I have developed URU Exploration), is another project that has kept me clicking away at the keys for a couple weeks now. The object is to put together a collection of softwares to offer services for guilds or other community-based groups. The target consumer for this software at the moment is a World of Warcraft guild; and to that, Mortality Guild has signed on to beta test. In the next few days we should be releasing a primary domain name for them, but for the time being, you can find them at http://mortalityguild.guildaxis.net

Trac

This handy collection of tools continues to be a great source of “sanity-keeping” for me. Thanks to this project management software from Edgewall Software, I now have several sites set up to maintain the projects I am working on.

Currently, these are listed at http://trac.chrisbraybrook.com
