Finally, the service packs we´ve all been waiting for. .net 3.5 SP1 can be found here and Visual Studio 2008 SP1 can be found here . Good work guys. Can´t wait to install these.
I’ve been quite busy the last week working on the Balder engine. I’ve focused my energy on improving the rendering pipeline, both for functionality and speed and have managed to overhaul it quite a bit. In addition, texturemapping is becoming a fact....
After some 6 and a half years working at the same job (Notus, acquired by Visma this year), I’ve just signed a contract with Objectware a part of the Itera Consulting Group . I will start there on the 1st of September this year. Some of you might have...
I got all psyched up today - the entrance badges for NDC 2008 arrived the office today. One step closer to the coolest developer conference in Norway to this date (I'm probably stepping on a few toes with that statement..) Heres a nice picture of...
Microsoft announces Source Analysis for C#. It is very similar to Static Code Analysis (FxCop), but instead of doing on the binaries it performs the analysis on the actual C# code. Read more about it here .
Martin Woodward posted earlier about how to go about aligning build numbers with assembly versions in TFS2008 . We used to do the same thing as he describes for our builds, but I found it really annoying having to have a file in the file system that the...
The runtime for .net has a type caching mechanism that is really great. Every so often I write code where you need specific data based upon a type. Normally one tend to revert to a Dictionary with Type as the key and the datatype as the valuetype for...

Another cool thing with XNA 3.0 is the ability to use MP3 and WMA files directly. This gives better compression for your music than the average of 27% before. These files can also be added directly to your content folder and used from the ContentManager...
Finally the CTP we've all been waiting for is here. You can now pick it up here and start developing for Windows, Xbox 360 and Zune (if you're lucky enough to own one). Another great news with this is that it supports Visual Studio 2008. It's...
One of the things I've been finding annoying is the time the designer takes to load for an XAML file when opening it. Pressing escape stops it from doing all it's preparation for the designer and then maximizing it to XAML view helps, but that...
I was asked earlier by Microsoft if I could hold a workshop in Turkey. On the 20th of May I'll be heading down to Ankara and hold a 3-4 day workshop for a competition Microsoft is holding at the Middle East Technical University . I'm working on...
In a press release today it is announced that Microsoft teams up with Nokia to bring Silverlight to devices. During the keynote at Mix'08, Microsoft will demonstrate Silverlight running on a Nokia S60 device. This must be one of the coolest news thus...
A friend of mine; Hans Petter Harveg, just emailed me an interesting error message they got when installing the .net 3.5 framework. It must be the good old chicken and the egg story, I'm sure.. :)
