I have spent the last few days fixing my desktop PC due to the fact that during my third year of university it completely crashed and would not load windows. This meant that for at least half of my third year I was using a laptop to do all my development which was slightly frustrating.
My computer is now up and running and I have just finished loading Visual Studio, DirectX SDK and various other bits that I never realised I needed until it was gone. I also downloaded the Unity3D Engine and although I'm in the middle of creating my shadow maps I have been looking at some of the tutorials shown on the website. Once the shadow mapping is done I think there is a good chance I might try out Unity and have a play around with some different ideas. It would be great to get some more Engine experience as well, as for the past year I have been diving round in the working of DirectX and forgotten about actual game development.
