Looking awesome. Love the cockpit can't wait to see this go forward.

I'm.. speechless.

@waldron - you are the real deal mate. Should be incredibly proud.

I'd like to see this with an alien world - perhaps some different colours for the landscape and environment. In setEnvironment() you can supply it with a tint for an interesting effect. Like a magenta sky or something. The numbers have to be small - something like setEnvironment( {.1, 0, .1 } )

@Dave cheers mate, iv found out i can skin it on to most games and works really well.
Once iv finished the ship i'd like to allow other people to use it, the cockpit is one sprite while the steering and hands are there own which allows for more animation frames due to the size.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the suggestion i just need to finish the steering column and hands/animation then il set up an alien world i like the sound of that

waldron

just some more animating now and set up a state machine for them

waldron

more animation done

Absolutely stunning - i can't wait to see where you take this. Personally I was a huge fan of Rescue on Fractalus! on my trusty Atari 130XE - without a doubt my favourite home computer, or at least it was once I had a floppy disc drive! Fractalus, and the technically-similar 'The Eidolon' were spectacular releases from Lucasfilm Games in 1984/5. From Ball Blazer onward, seeing the Lucasfilm title screen with its THX like sound intro meant you were in for something really special. Anyway...

You had to mention one of my favourite games of all time.. Now I have to put my C64 on and play Rescue on Fractalus. If I don't get any work done on Fuze tonight @Jonboy , it's your fault.
