Thomas,

It would be very nice if you can post something code related,
I am a c++ / opengl game developer but I have only about a year experience total. I would love to know how you deal with making the engine, these nice cg shader effects and general info and tips. How long have you been coding? and how did you learn? your favorite programming books or articles? Would be very nice of you to post something :

Will try and make some log entry about that kinda stuff!

I often have a completely different problem... I get stuck trying to get as much performance out of some piece of code as possible, while the basic structure of the game isn't even half finished!

I guess it must be the satisfaction of seeing your average fps increase... :

Must be a pain than adding onto your code, mister
