Objectives

I want to start small and have enough visual things happening to keep my dopamine levels high and interested in this mini-project. For today, I want to:

Organize the project.
Replace the old assets with the ones from the APK.
Compile an APK for Android.

Organizing the project

Files and Directories

This is the mess I had.

Porting Teleporter - Day 0

Brief Introduction

As you may have seen, I have a game in my projects tab called Teleporter, that I developed all the way back in 2015 with 2 friends. We programmed the game in Lua using the old CoronaSDK, and I believe our files were hosted in our Corona accounts. However, this project has become opensource, under the name Solar2D, and I can’t seem to find a way of getting the source code back. This is a bit troublesome, since I had the objective of reworking the code base to remove the ads and porting the game to the new engine, in order to provide an APK that can be enjoyed in modern phones.

Jolt Configs: From CSGO to CS2 and more

Sun, 01 Oct 2023 11:57:00 +0000

With the recent launch of Counter-Strike 2, I revisited my configurations to set up an autoexec.cfg file to test the game. However, I have renamed my old CSGO Jolt CFG repository to simply Jolt Configs. This change was motivated because now it will not only house configurations for Counter-Strike 2, but also the legacy configurations for Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.

I had a separate (private) repository, TF2 Jolt CFG, dedicated to my Team Fortress 2 configurations. I’ve now integrated this into the Jolt Configs repository, under the TF2 branch. I know it still needs a lot of work. I do not play TF2 as much anymore, so it might take a while to merge into the master branch.
