I was born in Hastings E.Sussex in the United kingdom in 1974 and went to school at St.Pauls primary school and then The Grove Secondary school. After I finished school I went to Brookes University and earned a BSc(Hons) in applied physics, while at university I worked on a project with Dr.Nick Gazey of the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory entitled “The Northern lights as monitors of magnetic sub storm dynamics”. Since I left university I have done very little of interest, and until I found out about NASA World Wind I had found very little to stimulate my mind. Now I am a moderator on the NASA World Wind Forums, help maintain World Wind Centrals hotspots site and knowledge base, make small contributions to the code, do alpha and beta testing and make Add-ons for the program (my name is even on the credits page). If you are an old or new friend please feel free to leave a message below.

That’s all for now…bye!

    Hi, Daniel. My name is Sam Evans and I work for a company called 30proof. We have been working with Wild Sanctuary, world’s largest privately-held soundscape archive. 30proof has put together the KML layer for GE.

    I would like to talk to you about what you’ve done with WW.

    Do you have an email address or telephone number? Thanks!

    I’m the founder of an exergame platform called Fitclub (see http://www.Pantometrics.com), looking to build metaverses to exer-games and exer-learning in.

    I’ve been talking to some people in the WW community, your name came up. Can I get an email ?

    I really like the youtube videos of WorldWind you’ve made. How’d you make them? Any tips you can share?

    Hi erudyte, I sent you an email.

    Bill, mainly just use http://www.worldwindcentral.com/wiki/Movie_Recorder then load the produced png files into virtualdub, and edit the odd corrupt frame, then export as an uncompressed avi before converting to xvid or mp4, you can even add a wav as an audio track in virtualdub.

    A few things I have learned are, use a few small scripts instead of one large script, this gives you better camera control, then join the clips in virtualdub. Make sure you cache the area thoroughly before running movie recorder, sometimes movierecorder stops tiles being downloaded. Use as large a preroll time as possible to avoid terrain ‘popping up’, it can be annoying as the script will take longer to finish, but it is worth it. Finally use a decent graphics card at a high resolution, my ati 1900 xt performs wonderfully for World Wind, a pity Oblivion isn’t so smooth, and remember patience pays off, good luck.
