Simon, your work is phenomenal as ever! I love the look of the telescope!

As I recently communicated with $imon, I have had to take a serious sidestep from this project, though it is still very much in my mind and thoughts. I have been unable to rebuild everything I had begun on...  but for now I have to put it aside as I am working another project that involves learning MessiahStudio 5.  

I will be keeping folks up on that project because I am using Anim8or for a lot of the object-building. I also promised $imon that I would do that, because he's a great guy and gives such wonderful moral support to all (as do all of our fine anim8or die-hards here).

Therefore, while I am sidetracking, here is the "Rockasaurus" project tracking thread: http://www.anim8or.com/smf/index.php?topic=3949.0

As for Rockasaurus, there are also two other songs being considered for more advanced projects...

1) Rockasaurus:  Dinosaur invents Guitar  ;)
2) Gunslinger:  Western/Cowboy storyline
3) Firestorm:  Sci-Fi space battle

Not to have to burst a bubble or anything, but maybe everyone gave up in December.

Well, I was really excited by the intent of others to jump in and make this a group project, and I am fully aware that it fell apart mainly due to my having had to take a few lumps, take on some serious offline and other issues to hand.

So, while I'm not happy with myself about failing the team, I am not sure why you pose the question about "where were we?" and then turn around after I make my response, and take it around that bend...

Anyway, yes, I do hold this project amongst one of my "would really like to get back at it" deals, but as I've said as well, between having lost a sizable chunk of work in that PC crash way back, and having had to take on some other time-consuming "life things," I have had to rearrange priorities heavily with what little lack-of-freetime I have.

I feel terrible about what had come of things so far. There has been some beautiful work, and some great ideas in the midst of this endeavor.

I do want to get back to it as soon as I can... alone, or with others, just as I had begun it "alone" but was greatly surprised by the spontaneous desires of others to get involved.

Personally I am very much looking forward to finishing some of the things I started with this project, and starting on some of the other ideas.  This was and is one of the coolest and best-received group projects Anim8or has seen.  The problem I have had is that I really can't dedicate myself to more than one (maybe two) things at a time, as it is I have had one machine rendering full time for almost 3 weeks on another project, and I have had to keep my other machine free for work etc.  If only life didn't keep intruding on our anim8ing time, huh!

Peeking in... trying to regroup and sort out what might still be able to be picked up in this project... Anyone here still kicking about? I keep wondering at the fact that I never really intended this little dream to be picked up by so many. Am trying to decide on how to rebuild the files I lost... and see who still might want to rekindle the fires of the steam boilers.

I really like how that came out, $imon. The sign and building textures really came out great!

WOw, $imon, that's pure gold. Even if schools starting, I think it may be time to renew this project; We don't want another 'anim8or movie project' ending. We should see it to the end!

Even though I probably won't be able to actually do much, I'll at least try to help again.
