NoLimits is the ultimate roller coaster simulation game that lets you experience authentic roller coaster thrills. Focusing on realism and speed, NoLimits lets you ride real existing coasters, or build a roller coaster to your own specifications. The program reproduces the physical dynamics of a real roller coaster, with its animated objects, dynamic 3D shadows, and detailed rendering of curved 3D surfaces. As you're moving at full speed, plunging down steep hills and taking sharp turns, your eyes and your stomach will both appreciate the photo-realistic quality and intense speed of the simulation. NoLimits lets you choose your seat, car, and train on the fly. You can even use your mouse to look around as you race around the track, and view the simulation from a variety of perspectives. NoLimits' comprehensive roller coaster editor lets you use a wire-frame display and standard computer-assisted design (CAD) techniques to build your own roller coaster. You assemble track, supporting structures, and other objects by dragging and dropping them. All editing is done by clicking and dragging, and slider bars let you easily change your perspective. It's easy to zoom in and out, and view your work in progress. The intuitive interface lets you quickly add track, change the shape of the roller coaster, add supporting structure and scenery, and change colors. There are eight different track styles to choose from, including inverted tracks and hyper-coasters. It's easy to make tight turns, add loops and tunnels, and design the rollercoaster of your dreams. From the moment you listen to your train being pulled up the first slope, to the times you fly through loops and turns, NoLimits Rollercoaster Simulation serves up real-time roller coaster excitement. You can create and ride any roller coaster you can dream up. There are no limits!

Arkan is designed to convert border of a raster mask (selection of an object in scene) or any closed polyline into B-spline (piecewise cubic Bezier curve) representation spread widely in vector graphics packages. Arkan chooses the best position both for node points (junctions of adjacent Bezier polynomial pieces) and for control points, which don?t lie on the curve but only affects its shape. Minimum description length approach powers the program. In addition to its unique outlining capabilities Arkan features nice and friendly user interface (see screenshot).
It?s typical task in computer graphics to describe contour of raster masks in terms of a set of cubic Bezier curves. For example, to allow changing (interpolation) of the mask during the time in a compositing environment, such as Adobe After Effects. Currently this task is performed manually for many frames and it?s really painful even for a skilled computer designer.
* Arkan can operate in one of two modes:
Semi-automatic. The user selects the number of node points, their very rough positions and type: should the spline be smooth or sharp at those nodes. Nothing more. The program then adjusts position of node points and locates the best position for controls points by itself. The processing in this mode is very fast.
Automatic. The user has to do nothing after loading the mask into the program. The number of nodes, their positions and positions of controls nodes, everything is detected automatically. However operating in this mode consumes significantly more processor power.
* Features & Benefits
Perfect quality of fitted B-splines, even if you limit the number of Bezier curve pieces.
Subpixel precision of node and control points.
Outstanding performance for that quality.
Ease of tuning due to built-in powerful properties editor.
Easy, familiar, and neat interface.
Adobe After Effects plug-in for handy importing constructed splines into AE.
Export of Bezier splines in text, BMP & EMF.

Medical technology continues to progress at a staggering pace. Accordingly, countless victims of trauma and disease 'return' from states of 'near death' every year. This process is no longer deemed a miracle, when it occurs, rather it has become commonplace. It is expected.
Though disdained by skeptics as hallucination, the phenomenon known as the 'Near Death Experience', or NDE, is nonetheless a reality for many millions of currently extant human beings. Whatever their true cause or meaning, many of these experiences share common themes.
Many NDE's report a sharp contrast between the Dark and the Light. Often, the Light is associated with feelings of overwhelming peace and joy.
Many NDE's report the presence of a Being of Light. Some report the presence of a Being of Shadow.
Many NDE's indicate that the Light is blindingly brilliant, though its brilliance is painless. Often, a conversation takes place between the 'near dead' and the Being, whether of Light or Shadow.
Often, a choice is central to the experience. Go? Or stay?
Most NDE's describe an alternate reality that exists beyond the threshold of death. Though individual descriptions of this reality vary, most imply that it is a vast, eternal and sentient construct.
While most NDE survivors report calming, reassuring experiences, a few speak of horrific, disturbing ordeals. Regardless of its nature, the Near Death Experience irrevocably alters all that survive it.

.NET Database Driven Application Generator, automatically generates multi-tier enterprise-level business applications. Everything is generated, database structure, logic layer, web forms, all SQL queries, and XML, VB and C# code. Simply define application objects in an intuitive visual design space, designate links from a clickable menu selection and choose GUI design and generate a working ready-to-deploy application. By default CompileX .NET generates 3 types of applications: 1. Multi-tier - Distributed Windows applications. Consists of 3 layers. 2. Web - Active Web Applications. Consists of 3 layers. 3. Simple client/server - It may be a simple desktop application working with local database as well as a real multi-user client/server application. Generated layers: 1. Database layer CompileX .Net automatically creates clear normalized relational database structure optimized to work with objects. It generates all required indexes and constraints and optimizes SQL queries to work with complex objects, to perform fast paging (for Web presentations) and more. 2. Logic Layer Generated multi-tier and Web applications work with data through generated Web Services. This allows the developer to concentrate most data processing logic in one separate layer. Generated Web Services already realize all logic needed to work with data and concentrate logic into separate classes. If, for example, you need to extend order-processing requests - simply change the method of generated Web Service. 3. Presentation Layer CompileX .Net automatically creates all Windows forms, all Web pages and all codes required to work with simple and complex objects with all child objects (or linked objects and lists of objects). Forms are sharp designs. Select desired design from library. CompileX.NET uses open code and GUI templates and allows customization of generated application. Adapt the look and feel to your corporate standards and generate your kind of application.

Cybertron is a futuristic game, in which you zoom through huge cyber cities skiding off buildings and ricocheting off I/O towers for big bonus! Shooting at digital binary streams, and blowing away I/O towers may be fun, but you'll need to go FAST to get to the finish line line before your time runs out! Going over speed pads is the only way to go, as they give you super speed boosts. Beware, however, there are just as many zero pads that'll slow you to a crawl. Oh, did I mension you'll also need to fly in this game? Hit the boost button, and you're off in the air, zooming, taking sharp turns around and through the cyber buildings... But beware, a small jerk of the mouse could mean the difference between skiding off a building for big bonus points, or crash and burn!

Use the self-extracting zip files to distribute files in personalized packages that benefit from the smaller footprint and compatibility of the widely accepted zip file format.
The self-extracting zip files provide plenty of flexibility: customize everything displayed, decide where files should be unzipped to, what happens when they're unzipped, and other things you can't do with regular zip files. All this is done through the easy-to-use "wizard-style" interface.
Absolute Packager runs on Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP and can create both 16 & 32-bit self-extracting zip files that run on all Windows operating systems.
Its self-extracting zip files are full featured self-extracting Zip files that support advanced features such as password encryption, disk spanning, program group creation, file association registration, quiet mode and automatic cleanup.
Quickly mastered, users can create their self-extracting zip files in 1, 3 or 8 steps, depending on their needs. Plus, the new "One-step" mode makes creating a self-extracting zip file as easy as selecting a bunch of files and entering a title, and introduction message!
When zipping onto a floppy, extra disks are automatically requested if the self-extracting zip file doesn't fit on one disk. Handling large amounts of files is no problem for Absolute Packager either. Zip up your entire hard drive if you want to!
Self-extracting zip files created with Absolute Packager are 100% PKZip-2.04g compatible. Rename a self-extracting Zip file's extension from ".EXE" to ".ZIP" and it turns into a regular zip file that can be manipulated by popular programs such as WinZip, without affecting its status as a self-extracting zip file.
