Starting early are we????
Dave, you know how I feel. For everyone else, if you have never done an animation and then tried to render everything you have no idea of the small part Dave appears to play in the kickoff animation. Days and computers (yes that is a plural of each,four as I remember, not a typo) are spent together for rendering those few minutes each year. And if you think game design is easy, try looking at the whole manual and conforming it to a game idea with a one year time limit (while holding a real job) after you have figured out what the game is and what the playing field is going to look like.
