Whatever you do, use it. You've got some excellent, powerful software in your hands.

My dad is a member of our local mac users group and reviews products. So he is able to get things for free for reviewing them and all that. That's how we also got Bryce 5 for free. Well I think its free. If not, we certainly got it for dirt cheap as we wouldn't be able to afford it normally.

Ares1, the problem might be that the pixel size of you're image is not a multiple of 8. For some reason, Escape Velocity will only allow the size of the frames to be multiples of 8. So you can only use 8 by 8, 16 by 16, 24 by 24, 32 by 32, 40 by 40, 48 by 48, 56 by 56 etc. You can adjust the size under the render window in mechanisto. Up at the top of the render window, it has a place for width and length. Type in the width and length you want there, and make sure that the size you type in is both a multiple of 8 and a square(width=length). But you probably already knew most of that. If it still isn't working after that, email your model to me, send what size you want with it, and I'll make the sprites and send them back to you. Hope this helps.

Oh, and Ares1, do you mind if I add your Web site to my sig? It might help you get some more publicity.

Ares, just so you know, the name "Galactic Alliance" is used in Ambrosia's game, (url="http://"http://www.ambrosiasw.com/games/swoop/")Swoop(/url). You might want to download the game and see if it makes any difference to you.

Damn! Really? The name of the plugin will be "Erion: The Worlds Beyond." Do you think it's okay for me to still have the Galactic Alliance as a gov.?

It should be...

Swoop is an older game and the phrase "Galactic Alliance" is briefly used. No one would even notice, save for the fact that I brought it up...

BTW, love the name for the plug. Sounds sweet.

Yeah, I like it, too.

Sadly, I have postponed work on the plug-in. Perhaps for a very long time. Skyblade is working on his site and other projects, and I am bogged down with schoolwork. I am also playing around with 3d modeling. I won't have time for the plugin for... well, a while. I am not giving up on it, however. I have put way too much work and time into it to give up now, and so have Macavenger and Skyblade.

Hmm, due to board policy, I'm obligated to lock the topic (200+ posts in a topic gets it locked)... feel free to start Galactic Alliance II, but given the tone of ares1's last post, I wouldn't be surprised.
