Software Projects

Software that I, or my friends have created - some available with source code others only as binaries.
If you find anything you like and feel like donating please take a look at my Amazon Wishlist.

I wrote a small piece of software to graph the values of the OpenLdap Monitor backend. It works quite well, however is still in alpha, as search spaces are defined in the script itself instead of through the configuration file. You can find it in the Ldapgraph tab of this page.

At work we needed to monitor the IO Usage of our file and backup servers. Since both our RHEL4 and SLES10 installations comes with iostat i wrote a small Nagios plugin that wraps around the iostat binary. It is written in perl and uses Regexp::Common and the new Nagios::Plugin modules (available at CPAN) - the plugin reports perfdata in a format easy to parse with NagiosGrapher which is our preferred graphing extension. As someone on the Nagios Mailing list pointed out this script only monitors IO Wait, and not so much the IO usage. So maybe it should be called IOWait

The game demo I helped create as part of my 8th semester of the Computer Science education (Requires Half-life 2)

Gameplay videos from the aforementioned game, they feature our gamedesigner in action. Warning both files are quite large (140mb+)

Another game developed simultanesouly with Ballocks (I was not part of this, however some friends did) The game is in danish and, like Ballocks, it requires Half-Life 2

Yet another game developed at dadiu (though at a later date than the above). It is in danish and requires Half-Life 2(Again i had nothing to do with this, but friends did)

Two small VisualBasic scripts that will convert Maya SMD files (sometimes even a simple .qc file) and TGA files to vtf textures respectively. Both scripts assume that you have the HL2 SDK installed (along with its tools), and you will need to specifiy paths etc. in the file.
I no longer have access to the HL2 SDK so the scripts might not work with newer versions of the SDK

I wrote this in a jiffy in order to help some friends - they needed an easy way to convert jpeg files to eps for their LaTeX documents.
