I think it's me delaying that. I was working on the animation (and did make some progress with Nathan's help), but was then distracted by other projects (and currently, RL work).
But it's not forgotten - I really, really hope to have more modding time this month with all the holidays.

Remember the old proverb:
" If a pirate has not a parrot looks like Bugs Bunny without a carrot" <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=")" border="0" alt="smile2.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

It was Nathan Kell's modeling work, I beleive, and Catalina's skin. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Nice work guys and gals, keep it up! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="me.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile2.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=")" border="0" alt="smile2.gif" />

Inez: Same here. I was going to redo the wing and tail for opacity maps and put all the textures on one texture page, but it got paused for the same reasons. So don't think you're the cause. :]

I've been busy too. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> So what's happening with the remap, Nathan, do I need to change my skin, or will it be the same? <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

I'll take a peek. I had it mapped out on paper, to fit in one 512 (1024?) ^2 sheet.
Because there's enough of each map wasted due to non-square UVmapping of the geometry, besides it being better (both for us and for the engine) to be on one page.

I believe the 2cyl one fit best, but whatever you send I should be able to stitch.
And if not I'll holler & pester. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

 

[CatalinaThePirate]

Heh, okay. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
