Well, my Internet connection is down, so no one can possibly read this at the moment. Ah, the joys of small time ISPs. I'm working on a new creature at the moment - nothing fancy, just some reskinning and adding emitters. I've got an idea for the final area shaping up.

I spent today working on turning placeables into creatures. One was specifically for the module, and should hopefully result in a "how did he do that?" reaction. The other was for "pushable crates". Essentially, there's a crate creature that you can have a "conversation" with. It checks the facing of the PC, then pushes the crate away from the PC by one meter. I had to brush off some triginometry for that one.

I'm having some occasional weirdness that I've noticed with this and other modules. Sometimes, custom models won't load right. It might be a dress for a character, a placeable, or a creature. No rhyme or reason - just happens occasionally. Very annoying.
