age: oooh boy, i am the top dino (39)
fun: just spent two month in southeast africa, just before that spent eight months in south america wandering around (carnival!!!)
computer: c++, java, smalltalk, lisp, cobol, assembly (learned on a TRS-80 model I - eeek! - then an atari 400 - saving code on audio tape!!!)
(** hey, i have a fully loaded Amiga 2000 with picasso board, 300mb hard drive, full memory at 64mb i think - if anyone is interested **)
things i did: i used to work for Xerox PARC on mobile computing interfaces, then at Apple (when it was boring) on Multimedia languages, then a bunch of startups and video game companies - i started two companies myself - one is still going
goals now: i am making a massive multiplayer opensource game similar to mario 64 that is completely P2P
its great to read about everyones interests and where they are - irrlicht is growing to be a very fun community ... and after years in the business of programming i can safely say that that is what matters - always be inspired by what you or doing!

Started programming at age of 10 with Qbasic for fun with few friends. We made some simple games. After that there was some years when I didn't program anything. Got back to programming with pascal and a bit of C++ but I was very busy to do much. After that I learned some Delphi but came back to C++ and now learning more actively since I have alot of spare time in my hands.

Started programming in Visual Basic in 4th grade (1998), and wrote a few easy games (pictures fly across a screen, you click on them, they blow up, next level) and then moved onto C and learned it thouroghly. Started trying to write an OpenGL engine, found Irrlicht, wrote half a game in C, learned C++, rewriting it for the second time using OOP and C++

name: Ted Koenig
age:24
languages: c++, java, PERL, shell, VB, basic, intel assembly, HTML, javascript, some PHP
bio: i first learned to program in high school, using my ti-85 calculator in TI-basic. my very first program was a game, a neat little star trek game that felt sort of like privateer, but with MUCH worse graphics obviously
i have wanted to make games since then, but to pay the bills i went to college at both drexel university(3 years) and then bloomsburg university(3 more years) and eventually this past may of 2003 i finally graduated with my BS in CS. i am now the network administrator for a medium sized manufacturing company (y'know those little nameplates on the front of DELL computer cases?? we make those, among about a thousand other things)
my specialities are UNIX/LINUX, scripting and system administration, and networking and security.
my goal is to learn enough to one day start my own games company.

Location: Upstate NY, AKA Frozen waist land
Age: Physical = 22, Mental = preinsemination, Spiritual = huh?
Computers: Went to Pennstate for a year, found out college wasnt going to teach me ANYTHING I wanted to know. Taught myself how to program C++ while I was there. Left college, starting writting game code. Currently working on a few games that I hope will make me independantly wealthy, but more so happy to be creating something cool. Was writting my own engine, found irrlicht, liking it better
currently converting everthing over.
Likes: Jagermeister (drink of the gods), Kevin Smith, Stargate SG1 (ON TONIGHT), BTVS (Is no more,
), Angel (Kind of lackin this season), FireFly (CANCELLED, I HATE YOU FOX....
), oh and those little minty things they leave on the pillow in the morning.
Dislikes: Working to make OTHER people rich, sandy toilet paper, any movie w/ J Lo in it, that hot chick at Wendys that would never look at me, till I got married, now she CONSTANTLY flirts, mmshsshmmsmmshshs.....
Favorite Quote: (From the movie Hackers) Spandex, its a privilage, NOT a right.
Hobbies: Coding obviously (only game code though, I realy suck at anything else, I am extreamly deficient at anything that cant be used to render something cool), martial arts (to lazy to run away, I would just rather hit ya and walk, lol), and Movies.......

I'm Dave. I'm origianally from Boston, MA, but moved out to Cali this past May, and ended up in Los Angeles in September, and thats where I live now.
I'm 30, heh I thought I would be the oldest, guess not.
I've been in the video game industry for over 5 years now, and normally I work as a level designer. However, I'm currently unemployed so I'm just keeping myself busy and expanding my skill set while I look for work, while keeping in mind the small possibility of making a game.
My favorite games include Autoduel (maybe the old-timers here will know that one), Half-life, Fallout, any of Sid Meyer's 4X games (Alpha Centauri/Civ).
I like old school punk rock and girls.

LOL, you know what your name means in German
I was born in 1980, living in good old Europe (Western Germany).
I started programming with Turbo Pascal very late in 1997, tried
Basic and a bad scripting language (RGH Profan) to make silly
windows games
Now I am earning money with J2EE and I'm coding C++ and Python in linux projects.
