<div class="IPBDescription">Status update, as if anyone cared...</div>...well, here we are, running against the clock. New update on status, at June 27th, 11:08 PM PST...

Brushwork: 95%

Entities: 10%

Lighting: 20%

Optimization: 15%

Texture memory: Still at 8 MB! AHHHH!

Wish us luck...hope we can make it before the deadline...

Speaking of deadline, what is the deadline? June 28th, 12:00 PM PST? Or EST? Or what? Time is of the essence...or something witty like that.

    Well, if we get at least a BETA version out, we can put a big stamp on it that says "Finished in 6 days!" on it! Yeah...or something...

    i find a helpful tip for lowering texture usage is to replace all the small textures that nobody ever notices with parts of the bigger textures that there are already lots of in your map, thereby getting rid of many of the smaller textures, which, if there are a lot of them, can eat up a lot of space...

    Lol, well we couldn't finish. Campaignjunkie gave up (well, to be fair, he had more than his share of the work load) and so we have...well, 6 MB of worthless crap. Well, I'm giving it up open source except for this cool little tower he made in the middle of the map which he wanted me to delete. My first and last map for NS...ns_foley. Time of death: June 28th, 12:16 AM PST.

    Who knows? Years from now, I may look back on all this...and laugh. Thank you all for your support...

    Lol, thanks, but have you looked at the map? It's pretty much crap. I could do a lot better if I wasn't rushing -- the only thing I was REMOTELY proud of is the hives...

    A map in six days is possible... I did Europa in six.  Admittedly, it still needs work, but still...
