MICROSOFT ACTIVE PROFESSIONAL 2010

Yesterday I received, on behalf of MSFT Technet & MSDN Team for Argentina and Uruguay, the distinction of “Microsoft Active Professional 2010”.

The award is granted to those professionals who are considered to be among the top 5% of most active contributors in the community.

Thanks a lot to Microsoft for honoring me with this award, again!

Cheers!

WATCHING THE SUN BURN - PART 3

A little while ago I wrote a couple of tech-oriented posts regarding the rendering engine -for XNA GS- known as “Sunburn”.

This time, I’ll skip the technical side of things to share some great news about the latest version of it, which has been just released: it fully supports lighting and shadowing for Avatars!!!

Is it a soft shadow what I’m seeing projected in there? Cool … gotta download v1.3.1 right now!

Enjoy!
