About Me
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!
Hi I sent you an email, look forward to hearing from you.

So sorry to hear about your Nan.
I pray for comforts for you and yours.

Bull:
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.
Hi Bull,
I’m in the process of setting up Community Forums at http://www.WLAB.com (the Wind Lab), http://AlgorithmWorks.com and http://LibertyIsGreen.com, among others.
I just discovered Nasa Wind World and you so that makes me a new friend. It appears to me that Wind World might be a great tool for land owners who are interested in showing off how their natural resources fit into the wind and solar corridors of the USA (one of the main objectives of the Wind Lab). If you developed an app suitable for that purpose the world might just beat a path to your door!
You are invited to join any and all of my communities. My visitors would be very interested in your works.
Don’t hesitate to contact me and please let me know if I can be of any assistance.
Thanks,
Rick
How are we going to deal with Tim’s Legacy? Is there anything WW community can do for Tim’s family?
Who is talking about this?
-…
Hello bull, omdesign, I guess you’ve heard about Tim’s passing. I’ve known Tim IRL for some years, and if you need, I can pass things on to his family. I’ve spent some months with him at TU/e, and have kept in touch through IM and occasional visits.
He told me about his WW-dev and his being in contact with bull, and I thought it was a good idea to look you up, just in case.
We would like to use your World Wind video to demonstrate technology during the opening of new building. Is there a high resolution version available and how can we gain permission to use the video?
Thanks,
Sandy
Hi Sandy, I have sent you an e-mail, please let me know if you do not receive it.
