Life

I’m starting a new job at the end of February. I will be giving up my job as academic support and System Administrator and taking a job as a Network Administrator. Time to read all those Cisco books I have laying around.

Played around with FRAPS a bit as a replacement for FFXI’s horrible screenshot functionality. The “shareware” version seems to work fine for simple screenshots of DirectX based games. I leave the Frames Per Second indicator off as it slightly depresses me to know I’m getting 10 to 12 FPS during battles in front of Delkfutt’s Tower in Qufim Island with the 20 other people usually standing around. The menus in the game are still quite responsive even with the low frame rate.
