New Release of MacIago

12 December, 2006 - 0 comments

After more than 50 000 downloads and 4 years of development inactivity, I'm working on a small update for MacIago. This new version will have the choice several board sizes and a slightly improved artificial intelligence. I'm also planning to release its source code.

This game was originally meant to help me learn Objective C, and I never thought it would become as popular as it did. It got translated in 7 languages, and it became specially popular in Japan, closely followed by the US.

For this new version, I'll again need a couple of strings translated, so if you would like to help, please send me an email.

Mephisto lives again

02 December, 2006 - 1 comment

The last month my mephisto intallation was behaving badly, and my attemps to fix it were driving me crazy...

One of the problems is that in .htaccess you cannot exclude from rails a directory named "mail", that will break admin...

Another thing was migrating from version 0.6.0 to 0.7.2, there was some problem with the premalinks in the database, my solution was to revisit every article and save it again.

So a month later, and just when I was about to dump Mephisto, I managed to bring it back to live, and now everything is just fine again.
