I had a surprisingly hard time scaling the ship properly, but I finally managed to get it into the game and approximately the right size. The obvious trick of taking the model, importing a human to compare it to, and scaling to that, didn't work properly. My first attempt produced a tiny little rowboat. My second one caused it to grow and fill the entire map. Eventually I sorted it out.

Needless to say, I've started in on the final battle. The further I get, the more I realized I've skimmed over some areas. I'd love to go back and do a "found writings" pass, putting down books and notes and other things to create ambiance. I also have a lot of flavor text to put in, text that pops up when you enter a room.

Still, I'm hoping to do some of the scripting and dialog today. I may end up powering through this section and the ending, then going back to add in pretty stuff. At this point, I'm itching to get out on the open sea after so long in these dreary mountain halls.
