Ahh....Most impressive. Very good work. It's very smooth and fast on my PC (P4 3.0/1Gb/XPP).

NOW GET BACK TO WORK ON BARREN!

Thanks. Well, it should run smooth on really old PC so...

Anyway, I did work on Barren a little last weekend. Erm...did you read my PM and the email that warned you about it?

I never got your feedback on that image.

Yes I did see it and it's looking good. I have been in a crisis mode for my work these last two weeks and expect it to last 2-3 more days before I get things in order. I have been re-working the junk scene. I should have that fininshed soon.

NP. I just like to....you know....stay in contact regarding the project.

Anyway, I updated the engine. It softened the colliding objects and made the characters' colliding legs only to be a black rectangle (not drawn). Making characters’ real legs sprites as the collision objects was overkill. Much smoother now, although don't expect when you crawl into a tree root for the program to slide you backwards if you move left and right. That’s not even realistic, if we are going to venture into the topic of realism.
