StartUp - 2010



StartUp is a tool to automate application launches where the time duration between launches can be configured.
UseCase:
After booting up your machine in the morning you double-click several icons on the desktop one after another to set up your usual workspace.
You also wait between double-clicks because Windows slows down when launching processes in parallel.
StartUp can do the work automatically. You just need to set up a launch script once.

tool to launch applications automatically


How to install:
Copy StartUp.exe anywhere you want. There is no installation routine required.

How to configure:
Put the StartUp configuration file (filename = StartUpConfig.txt) into the same folder where StartUp.exe is located.
Open the file and add/change the configuration. The syntax is:
"full path to the exe file"
"wait n"
Where "n" is the duration to wait in seconds.

Example:
C:\WINDOWS\explorer.exe
wait 5

How to run:
Double click StartUp.exe

Touch - 2009



Touch is a little tool for setting the timestamp of files to the current time.
It works on Windows systems and it is a simple version of the touch program commonly found on Unix machines.
Touch changes the creation, modification and access times of files.
The time is taken from standard Windows API. The time used can not be specified.

tool to set timestamp of files. like unix tool.


For each file operand, Touch performs the touch action.
If a given file's attribute is read-only, Touch temporarily removes the flag and performs the touch action.
If a given file does not exist, no action is taken, but the error is reported.
If Touch has no access to a given file, the error is reported.

Requirements:
Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0 or higher.

Limitation:
The Win32 limitation for a command-line string is 8191 characters.
Let's say you got files in a folder named: E:\Public\Projects\C#\temp
And each file within this folder has 20 characters,
you end up with a length of each command-line argument by 46 characters, including the folder prefix.
8191 / 46 = 178 files can be processed with one call of Touch from command-line at max.

Examples:
1. Touch one file
touch FileName.txt

2. Touch two files
touch FileName_1.txt FileName_2.txt

3. Touch all content within a directory (recursive)
touch FolderPath

4. Touch all content within two directories (both recursive)
touch FolderPath_1 FolderPath_2

5. Touch all content within a directory (recursive) and one file
touch FolderPath FileName.txt

Raw2Picture - 2008



This tool converts binary pixmap data to common readable image formats.
Input data might be for example a memory dump of some video frame buffer.
As the frame buffer data format is sometimes odd (proprietary to the vendors chipset), this tool is designed to read any color format.

tool to convert raw data to an image. user can set any color format as input.


To achive the most general data conversion possible, a special language is used here to describe input data bytes.
The language is like this: [ColorComponent, NumberOfBits]+

Valid ColorFormatChars (the alphabet):
r, R -> Red ColorComponent
g, G -> Green ColorComponent
b, B -> Blue ColorComponent
a, A -> Alpha ColorComponent
0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 -> NumberOfBits (amount of bits for each component)

Some ColorFormat language examples:
R8G8B8 -> 3 input bytes are fetched and interpreted as red, green and blue color channel. Each channel is 8 bits wide.
R5G6B5 -> 2 input bytes are fetched and interpreted as red, green and blue color channel.
          Red and blue channel are 5 bits wide.
          Green channel is 6 bits wide.
       -> So, input data has 16 bits and looks like this:
          MSB 15    11 10    5 4     0 LSB
              +-------+-------+------+
              |  Red  | Green | Blue |
              +-------+-------+------+

A7R12B8G5 -> 4 input bytes are fetched and interpreted as alpha, red, blue and green color channel.
             Alpha is 7 bit wide.
             Red is 12 bit wide.
             Blue is 8 bit wide.
             Green is 5 bit wide.

Before input data is interpreted, you can filter (pre-process) the data in advance.
This can be useful to clear a color channel or to set all input alpha bits to one before conversion.

Valid FilterChars:
z, Z -> Set input bits to zero
s, S -> Set input bits to one
x, X -> Don't care
0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 -> Following number (amount of bits for each filter)

Some PreFilter language examples:
X8 -> The byte fetched is not changed.
X24S8 -> The last of the 4 bytes fetched is set to 0xFF.
S4Z4X16Z4z4 -> MSB 4 bits set to one. Following 4 bits set to zero. Following 16 bits don't care. Following 8 bits set to zero.
            -> So, the resulting bit masks look like this:
               PreFilter SetToOneBitMask : F0000000
               PreFilter DontCareBitMask : 00FFFF00
               PreFilter SetToZeroBitMask: 0F0000FF
Remember:
The sum of bits (for PreFilter or ColorFormat) must be byte-aligned (1,2,3 or 4).
I.e. the numbers following the Filter/ColorFormat-Chars must in total sum up to 8,16,24 or 32.

This tool requires .Net Framework 2.0 and it is proven to work on WinXP machines.

There is also a command line syntax (if you don't want to use the mouse):
Raw2Picture inputFileName width height preFilter colorFormat outputFileName [noDialog]
e.g.: Raw2Picture.exe myBinary.bin 200 100 X16 R5G6B5 out.png
e.g.: Raw2Picture.exe myOtherBinary.dat 64 64 S8X8 A8G4R2B2 out.bmp noDialog

Not only raw binary data but also PNG, BMP, JPG and GIF can be loaded by presing the "Load File..." button.
The image will be displayed and you can then QuickSave it.
This is handy to generate raw data from existing files.

View code online:
Form1.cs - The main window handles user input and triggers conversion on any setting changes.
ColorFormatString.cs - Reads color format (freely set by user) and offers parsed bit position and length of color channels Alpha, Red, Green, Blue.
PreFilterString.cs - Reads filter format (freely set by user) and offers parsed bit position and length for values 1 or 0 to be applied before conversion.
PictureBuffer.cs - Holds raw picture data in pre-multiplied ARGB color format. A common known DotNet System.Drawing.Bitmap is exposed and can be used as you would expect.
HelpForm.cs - Popup window showing help and usage.
HexViewForm.cs - Shows binary file data in readable formatted hex view.

Asteroids Bot - 2008



One of the ever must-have-played games is for sure Asteroids by Atari. Asteroids hit the arcade rooms around 1976 and was a blast, people say.
On Mai 2008, a local computer magazine called "c't" shout out a coding competition: Make a program which is able to play against Asteroids by itself (a so called "bot").
As a true retro-gamer I was hooked and had very exciting days coding such a thing. Please see details [german] for a look behind the scene of Asteroids and how it was engineered.
So, here is my Bot playing:

program (bot) playing asteroids itself

And this is the original game state:

Asteroids emulated by MAME


The Bot receives 1024 bytes of vector-screen data at 60Hz via UDP from an Asteroids emulator [MAME].
The emulator is driven by the original ROM image from Atari. Additionally it can handle key commands received from a Bot: Left, Right, Fire, Hyperjump, Start.
Vector-screen data is interpreted and objects on screen are extracted frame by frame: Asteroids [big, middle, small], Saucer [big, small], shots [own, by saucer] and the ship itself.
Because all objects are very similiar, they have to be tracked by their position and velocity. If tracking is done right, a Bot can calculate the best angles to shot objects as fast as possible.

During competition the participants [2500 people] revealed lots of detailed knowledge about the internals of Asteroids. Such as:

Max count space ships [lives]: 255, but more than 20 drawn lives on screen -> the game slows down rapidly
Max count simultaneous own shots: 4
Max count simultaneous saucer shots: 2
Max count simultaneous asteroids: 26 [if then hit a big/middle asteroid results only in one smaller asteroid, instead of two]
Count of asteroids at level start: 4 to 11

Velocity of a shot:
At positive X-direction: 63 pixel in 8 frames
At negative X-direction: -64 Pixel in 8 frames
At positive Y-direction: 63 Pixel in 8 frames
At negative Y-direction: -64 Pixel in 8 frames

Space ship rotation:
One hit on left/right button turns the ship by 4,21875 degrees. It takes 85,33 keystrokes to turn the ship around its axis one time. Therefore the ship must be turned three times around its own axis [256 keystrokes] to return to its exact starting look-at-direction. So, there are 3 times more Asteroids internal rotation positions than you see on screen. Each internal rotation position results in a different shoot angle.

If two keys are pressed simultaneously, e.g. turn and shot, then the shot has the direction of the spaceship prior to the rotation.

Coordinate system of Asteroids build in 6502 micro processor: To show a smooth movement of the spaceship, even at low processor speeds, the 6502 works internally with an 8 times finer rasterized coordinate system than the image storage. E.g.: 8192 x 6144 pixels. These coordinates will probably be transformed by simply cutting off the lower bits of the frame buffer.

The lifetime of a projectile [shot] is 18 and is decremented every 4th frame by one [if the internal frame number is divisible by 4]. At total between 69 and 72 frames, depending on the launch date.

Asteroids manages the asteroids and their explosions in a 27-element array. New asteroids are always in the first free slot in this array.

And so on... there is much more to take care about, my bot is only worth ~96.000 points in a five minutes game.
Ohter contributors even re-coded the whole ROM image to guess Asteroids' random number generator output on next frames. That way, a bot can do ~115.000 points in 5 minutes.


Get C# source code of my bot here and have fun building your own!
Download Visual Studio 2005 project and EXE [60 kByte] and let it play Asteroids!
You will also need this version of Asteroids MAME [640 kByte] to play via UDP [ROM included].

FileSystemWatch - 2008



Ever wonder what files are being created, changed, renamed or deleted by Windows OS during normal operation?
You want to know where and which files are created during installation of some software?
This little application keeps track of all file activities and reports them to you.
Not only Windows OS, but all file events are tracked according to your settings.
It's also a great helper to get immediate notifications on files being created/changed by other persons.
For example within shared folders on project drives at your company.
This application is executed in background on your machine and supervises folder and file changes at any local or network drive.

See below FSW screen shots:

Tool keeps track of file events and reports them in a DataGridView control.


Download File System Watcher Program: FileSystemWatchExe_20090129.zip (18 kByte, requires .Net Framework 2.0)
Update: Download File System Watcher Program: FileSystemWatchExe_20110523.zip (20 kByte, requires .Net Framework 4.0)

This tool was made using the DotNet Framework 2.0 and should run with XP SP2.
The .NET Framework has a pre-defined class named System.IO.FileSystemWatcher, with whose assistance you can prepare a program for monitoring the file system.
This class has properties with which you can specify the path which should be supervised. Whether changes on files/folders or sub-folders can be supervised.
With System.IO.FileSystemWatcher class, it is also possible to specify the file types to be supervised (with *.doc for example, changes at all Word files are supervised).
You can even indicate, which kinds of changes to pursue - so e.g. new files, changed file sizes or "touched files".

You can use this program for monitoring files on a local computer or in a network.
On startup three config files will be created at the EXE's location.
Right click the main window to open a context menu and set directories you want to watch.

TableTop by Sebastian Roll, Philipp Rossberger - 2007



This is a virtual table where you can play around with photos.
Photos (pictures, images) must be in BMP, JPG, TGA, PCX, PNG, or PSD format.
A photo can also represent a video stream (MPEG 1/2/4, AVI, DivX, XviD)
or any other common container/codec. All visual media found in the folder ../media/photo
will be parsed and loaded (press 'L') onto the table. Once loaded photos follow the rules of Newton.
That is: you can lift them, screw and bounce them with your mouse like real photos on a table.
On double click, photos zoom up to be viewed in detail.

Here is a Table Top screen shot:

TableTop View Photo And Video On Virtual 3D Table


The main purpose for coding this application was to get inside graphics and physic syncing.
Here are some facts about TableTop:
  • Windows Win32 Exe
  • Uses DirectX 9, runs also with openGL or in pure software mode
  • Uses irrlicht engine for rendering. Visit irrlicht for more information.
  • Uses physX engine for physical simulation of the whole scene. Visit physX for more information.
  • Uses ffmpeg engine to encode videos in realtime. Visit ffmpeg for more information.

Swarm by Sebastian Roll, Philipp Roßberger - 2006



Swarm was born out of the idea to make a game with cooparate elements where the player
has to work together with other NPCs (Non-Player Characters). The player has to care about
the NPC and also uses it to manage the quest. The name "Swarm" states the fakt what the NPC
actually look like. It behaves like a flock of birds and is made out of many small NPCs.
Please visit the place of Craig Reynolds for more information about Flocks, Boids and Herds
and how they can be modelled with bits and bytes.

This screener shows a Flock of Boids performing a tornado pose:

Swarm Flock Boid Simulation Game Irrlicht


Swarm project implements such flock algorithms and output is done with irrlicht graphics engine.
This project has also a robust game state machine, terrain rendering and a large debug class
for logging. It can visualize debug-data also on screen in realtime (which might be usefull for other irrlicht coders).
The project was not completed and is abandoned now. Never the less I say thank you to following people and their work:
  • OpenSteer - Steering Behaviors for Autonomous Characters
  • The best UDP game network library on the net: RakNet
  • The Irrlicht Engine by Nikolaus Gebhardt.

RasterPic - 2004



A ViualBasic 6.0 project to create old school "raster line" effects on images.
After loading a picture (BMP, JPG, GIF, WMF) you can select scaling factor and safe a rasterized copy.
How it works: Each line of input image is read and and written to
output image together with an following line of black color.
Each input line is converted to monochrome color format, e.g. green (color is adjustable).

Image rasterization looks like this:
(input)

Computer Lab HAW Technische Informatik input

(output)

Computer Lab HAW Technische Informatik output (rasterized)


This project was inspired by the movie Alien. Inside their space craft you can see various console screens
printing the usual "science fiction listing dumps" on screen.

Wurst Ritt - 2005



For all who love Trailblazer game, here is my version done in BlitzBasic 3D.
Beware it is not as addictive as the C64 original done by Mr. Chip Software, published by Gremlin Graphics 1986.
The goal is to maneuver a ball on a road with gaps and holes. Try to collect letters W U R S T to earn extra time.
Each level file can be modified easily as they are pure TXT files. Game runs on Win32 with DirectX 8.0 or higher.

WurstRitt looks like this:

Earth ball trailblazer road game


The game's name is as fabules as it's gfx which represent various sausages from a butcher's shop.
Avoid falling down the path to reach finish line in time. The path is assembled on the fly according to the level file.
Music is classic C64 SID tunes, hail to BB3D's mod play function.
