Mihkel's blog: Progress timer
http://mihkeltt.blogspot.com/2009/11/progress-timer.html
My life on the interwebs - programming, photography, 3D art and Saabs. I know - it's been too long since my last post and i feel ashamed. So here goes. I have put together a neat progress timer class for such occasions when you have a long running process looping over a bunch of items and doing its thing. The timer keeps track of the recent times and remaining time. Enough of the chit-chat - to the code. And here's a sample of how to put it all to good use. Var timer = new ProgressTimer(2); timer.Ini...

Mihkel's blog: Some handy String extension methods
http://mihkeltt.blogspot.com/2009/03/some-handy-string-extension-methods.html
My life on the interwebs - programming, photography, 3D art and Saabs. Some handy String extension methods. Extension methods - don't we all just love them. If you've been out of the .Net 3.5 loop, here's some catching up - Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide). I thought i'd share some handy string extension methods i've come to love during my experience with C# 3.0. I've never been quite fond of the static. I have two methods for strings that are quite similar to yours:. EmptyIfNull { return source?

Mihkel's blog: Debugging made easy
http://mihkeltt.blogspot.com/2009/04/debugging-made-easy.html
My life on the interwebs - programming, photography, 3D art and Saabs. I know that debugging and how it's done is a very personal thing. Still - I'd like to share some of my experiences and tips I've gathered during my years of programming. Here goes. I've set it under the F8 key so it's close to all the rest of the debugging keys. What it does is runs the code and breaks the debugger at the line where the caret is positioned - no need for temporary breakpoints etc. Cool, huh? Next on the list - the.

Mihkel's blog: Modeling a car - a quick run-through
http://mihkeltt.blogspot.com/2009/03/modeling-car-quick-run-through.html
My life on the interwebs - programming, photography, 3D art and Saabs. Modeling a car - a quick run-through. I wrote this little instructional how-to at CGSociety on the topic of modeling a car in a poly-modeling fashion and thought it might be a good idea to make it a blog post. This question get's asked quite ofter - what is your modeling workflow like, so here's how I do it. Extrude inward or do a negative smooth shift of about 1,5mm. Delete the cloned polygons. I hope this gives a little more insight...
