Nathan Mates' Home Page

This is the homepage of Nathan Mates: Christian, Videogame (Battlezone 2, Star Wars: Battlefront 1 & 2, other titles by Pandemic Studios and Adrenalin Interactive) programmer, Babylon 5 fan, and anime fan.

Most of the content of my webpages has always been in subpages, so I've taken this redesign to the extreme of that. Use the handy navigation buttons at left to go to a category you're interested in.

The largest section of this website is the Christian writings I've done. There's over one hundred writings in there, on all sorts of different subjects. Some of the most popular are my unification of the 4 gospel's writings on Jesus, from the Last Supper to the burial, What is Unequally Yoked?, and The Carpenter What exactly did Jesus do, growing up?


I work as a videogame programmer. I've got a LinkedIn page here. By way of some blatant plugs for products I'm working on or have worked on, my current employer is Total Immersion Software. See here for the latest Battlezone II 1.3 patch. A short summary of the games I've worked on is:

In all of the below, I was one of the team of programmers at the developer:


Some more personal items:

9/8/03: In case you're interested in what I'm watching, try a list of DVDs I own. Or, a list of CDs I own. Sorry, haven't listed videogames or books online yet.

As to my personal life, I have been a member of University Presbyterian Church from 2001 to 2009, and like it a lot. Since moving to Austin, Texas, we've joined Crossroads Community Church in Austin.

2010/08/22 : Added notes on getting Ubuntu 10.04 working on an ASUS eeePC 701, including skype. A lot more work than it ought to be, unfortunately.


"To you has been given the secret of the kingdom of God, but for those outside, everything comes in parables" Mark 4:11, NRSV
