What's New

Stay Updated (Free) 31 August 2010
  • Create your own first person shooter action game with the latest addition to the Free Games Programming Libraries and Source Code page. This 3D game engine features all the usual 3D graphical effects and 3D sound effects, and comes with a wide variety of tools (model editor, level editor, etc), and a scripting language. It also includes a set of customisable weapon types that you can use for your games, letting you get started quickly creating weapons like pistols, rocket launchers, laser blasters, machine guns, etc. A number of games showing off different features of the software are also included in the package. And it's free.

  • Convert videos and music between different formats with the newest software to be added to the Free Video Converters or Transcoders page. This one supports a huge variety of formats, from the usual avi, mpg, mov, flv (Flash video), etc, to mobile phone formats like 3gp, 3g2. You can also use it to do simple editing (cut and join video clips) and to extract the audio from DVD or video files. (For more complex tasks, you should get a full video editor like one of those on the Free Video Editors page.)

  • Fancy writing a computer program in the C programming language? The Turbo C 2.01 compiler has been restored to the Free C/C++ Compilers and Interpreters page. I'm not sure when it got removed from my list, but I think it was around the time Borland sold its development tools, and the new owners started removing the free compiler suites that Borland used to provide. Anyway, it's back. For those not familiar with Turbo C, it was a famous C compiler known for its fast compilation, built-in graphics library and IDE (development environment).
     
    On the other hand, if you prefer a more up-to-date tool so that you can write computer programs for a modern system like Windows, Mac OS X, Linux (etc), take a look at the other free C or C++ compilers on the page. There are now 38 of them listed, so chances are that you should be able to find something you like.

  • A new COBOL compiler for Windows has been added to the Free COBOL Compilers and Interpreters page. This compiler implements ANSI-74 COBOL with some features from ANSI-85 and ISO 1989:2002. If you're learning the COBOL computer language or want to write programs in COBOL, check it out.

  • A new ping software has been added to the Free Graphical Ping Utilities to Check Network Connections page. Ping is often used as a rough test to see if a particular host (such as a website) on the network is reachable or alive. While most operating systems, including Windows, Mac OS X and Linux, already come with command line ping software , these Ping tools have a graphical interface and often include additional facilities not present in the built-in programs. All the programs listed on the page are free.
10 August 2010
  • A new screen reader has been added to the Free Screen Readers: Text to Speech Conversion page. Screen readers read whatever is displayed on your monitor aloud, so that the blind can use computers to read and write documents, surf the Internet, etc. If you are a webmaster, you can also use such readers to test your website to make sure it is accessible to the blind.
