Loading ...Just thought I’d check in and update everyone with my coding progress for version 5.5 of AutoWallpaper. So far so good, I’ve very nearly completed all the necessary codebase changes necessary to drive the new data store and get the whole thing up to the latest compiler version; which as regular followers will know caused [...]

To Sleep Perchance to Dream
Tuesday, July 13th, 2010The temperature during the night in my part of the UK has gone up considerably in the last few weeks and is making it very difficult for me to sleep, or at least get a restful nights sleep. My clock is displaying a minimum temperature of 27 degrees Celsius and during the day rises to about 28-29C. [...]
USB AutoBackup 1.5 coming soon
Monday, May 31st, 2010It’s been quite a hectic few weeks. With the release of UnityScript Editor I continued a fast paced process of adding new features and fixing bugs and have already clocked up to version 1.6.5. With USE I’m using a slightly different version numbering than I usually use, the .6 is actually the release build number [...]
Announcing USB AutoBackup, and AW5.2
Monday, February 15th, 2010A new application is about to be released, USB AutoBackup, a little application that will backup your USB flash memory drives as soon as you connect them to your computer. Why develop such an application? Well, I use a few different computers for development, 2 PC’s and a Mac Book, keeping project files on different [...]
If I could turn back time…
Friday, February 5th, 2010In addition to the forth coming AutoWallpaper update that adds the ability to cycle monitors separately, I am also hoping to ‘turn back time’ and reintroduce Mac OS X 10.4 support. Version 4 originally discontinued support for the 10.4 OS because of limitations in controlling multi-monitor wallpaper configurations, and this hasn’t actually changed. However, I am [...]
New car, new AutoWallpaper update coming soon
Saturday, January 23rd, 2010If you’re wondering why the blog has been a little quiet recently it’s mainly due to me having to change cars. I had a Ford Fiesta on hire purchase with Ford and that has come to an end, so I’ve been working on finding and buying my new car – Toyota Aygo Black. I took [...]
First update of the new year (AW5.1.2835)
Sunday, January 3rd, 2010Happy new year everyone I’ve released a small update, originally it was my plan to release a new version with a couple of new features but January has prompted the need for a quick fix. Basically if you have the calendar display showing with it starting the week on Sunday the background tint wouldn’t cover [...]

AutoWallpaper will continue to be improved upon, and development of AutoExtract 4 will begin (Set Forget Extractor). Also, Asylum development will start back up. So here’s to [...]
Compiler update issues
Sunday, December 13th, 2009It would appear that a number of database related alterations were made to the newest compiler I’m using that have surprised me. I believe I have corrected all of the category related issues in build 2806, but it does appear that there are a few more minor issues occurring. If you do update to 2806 [...]
