Do I have any idea about what this is? No. Am I incredibly intrigued about what this is? Yep.

One weird video indeed.

Noooo I don't want to die!

And thank you for pushing on through during busy times, I really appreciate it!

Alright, one last update before this thing is (finally) released. Real life has done it's best to get in my way, but I'm thankfully wrapping up the script files, and just about all of the technical issues have been resolved. I'd just like to thank everyone that's interested for their patience. Especially since I'm not the one who started this mod, but ended up being the one everyone's waiting on. It's not easy balancing this with new job stuff, and more recently, end-of-year fiascos, but I wouldn't leave you hanging, so thanks for not keelhauling me.

[21:12:48] jamesster: does anybody care if minifig hands are a little different than the real thing [21:13:43] jamesster: gonna say "no" and if anybody has complaints they can a) stare at older games with far weirder things going on or b) fix it themself [21:14:05] Will Kirkby: accurate hands or bust [21:14:09 | Edited 21:14:36] Will Kirkby: let's see what terrev thinks [21:14:11] Will Kirkby: [21:14:42] Terrev: fix them [21:14:50] Will Kirkby: lol [21:14:53] *** jamesster removed Terrev from this conversation. ***

Well, that's one Light spaceship built and a lot of polygons deleted. Currently, it's at about 14k, down from 22 or so. Which...is still probably way too high for a multiplayer game. But it's low enough I can say "Close enough for the moment," and move on to the next step - modeling the first playing map. You can't see it in either of these photos, but the cockpit computer is lit. A "night" version, showing engines/running lights(and a tiny bit of glow from the cockpit computer screen). I'll probably need to add some glow to the guns, but I'll leave worrying about that until I'm actually programming the shooting function. EDIT: ...And I've just know realized the silliness of thinking I could use a 14k model for testing functions. :facepalm: I guess I'll just make #885 Space Scooter and use that. I imagine that'll be...still probably a good two or three hundred polygons more than desirable, even if I shave off all visible studs, but it should work at least a little better...
