Missed our original post?  Check us out.  We offer
100's of articles on a wide range of game programming
topics.  We also cover a lot of graphics algorithms
and 3D topics.

With this update, we interview Greg Hjelstrom, lead
programmer at Westwood Studios.  Hjelstrom offers us
some perspective on a programmer's life inside the
industry.

Here is what you have to look forward to:

* Interviews with professional programmers, designers, and
  artists!

* A Public game development project, come participate.  We
  are currently in early development.  We are using DJGPP
  as our compiler of choice!

* An article entitled "How to Write a Solid Design Document"

  submitted by Michael Tanczos

* Michael Tanczos submits some information on real-time
  lense flares

* Hin Jang, a technical writer, graciously contributes
  three *very nice* articles on : NURBS, Volume Light
  Rendering, and Radiosity Methods.

* Jeff Weeks, our regular author, has written a great
  article entitled "Object Space Rejection"  This
  contribution describes a method of greatly reducing
  the number of unnecessary transformations of points
  into world space.  HOT!!

* Jeff Weeks contributes a z-buffering algorithm
  that doesn't require any clearing as well as techniques
  for speeding up the general z-buffer algorithm.

Enjoy!  And please don't hesitate to offer your comments on
the web page through email to me.
