I was up at 3:30 this morning and wasn't able to get back to sleep. Too much stress in real life, I suppose. The fix to the tileset worked great and I had a couple more bug fixes I put in last night. My 4-year-old Sam wanted to play with the bear and he did a few unexpected things that should now be resolved.

It's looking like my testers won't get to it until after the holidays, though I may not wait for all of them to get around to it. Oh, and the intro movie is complete - looks and sounds good. Finally, this module now has a huge readme file, complete with hints through every major section. Part of that is for selfish reasons - I'm getting quite a few e-mails these days from people with questions.

I've also been working hard on water placeables. They're pretty cool to work with. I made up some 4x4 placeable water tiles, which cuts down the issues with having to line them up. I tried an 8x8 placeable, but the graphics engine seemed to freak out on me a bit. It should be uploaded to Neverwinter Vault today. Expect to see it from time to time in the next module.

Dreamcatcher 2 has begun. It's mostly a collection of technical demos so that I can make sure things really work. I have a tentative story lined up and some fairly dramatic events. Should be fun.
