Oooo, purdy! *barely resists temptation to set dynamic shadows on EVERYTHING* :D
I'll try not to sleep at my post for too long - thanks for filling in, Robert. :)
The chat went well, even though we missed Perlenstern. We talked for a while, clarified a few things on some mechanics and a few ideas were briefly juggled back and forth. Mostly, people felt that some little bit of life, making a home for itself, wouldn't go amiss in the age, nor some sound.
First and foremost, it was made clear how nothing is set in stone, including any stone structures -- the direction of the age can be altered freely by the current author. (...I'll put in that I hope we all have thick skin enough, to handle modification to any of our pet ideas.) I'm just waiting for someone to point out just how ridicolously structurally unsound those towers are. :)
Justin, who is next in line to carry the torch, left brimming with ideas, it seems, so I, for one, am eager to see what he comes up with.
Remember that the IRC channel is always there - any time you have an urgent question, there COULD be someone knowledgeable at the keyboard and if it's not urgent, maybe just a fellow builder or inkmaker to have a friendly chinwag with.
If not tomorrow, I'll be back soon. (famous last words.. :P)

Oh my dear,,,,,I've been in the kitchen to make a salad and forget the chat. I hope you all can excuse me.
Next week I'm not at home so I be back on tuesday 19.05.2009.

That's amazing robert! Does the sun actually rise? (that's what it looks like from your pics.)
Can't wait for my turn!

(I didn't exactly leave brimming with ideas, but I do have a few

)

Goodie. :)
Any Futurama fans around, by the way?
Old sins surface from the bottom of one's pile of amassed garbage, when moving -- how much nerd credentials does this yield?:

It's been a while, I've given it some thought, and I'd like to help.
So, kinda whenever it's time, I'll do what I can.
By the way, I like the preview Robert.

It looks very nice.

Welcome aboard, Core43! Your turn will be after ardent red (see list in initial post). Jojon will be away for a while, so that list won't be updated immediately.
In the meantime, I've sent a PM to Justintime9 with a link to the project files. I plan on putting together a public bundle for the age files, but I'm too tired ATM.

I haven't been kicked off quite yet (and it seems like there may actually be weeks before they actually do the transfer - the grindstones of bureaucracy turns slowly), so I'm adding Core now - welcome, Core43! :)
Robert, If your pyprp build doesn't include ChristianWalther's modifier thingummie, please consider applying the edgesplit modifier on all meshes that has it, prior to exporting... (..or I could do it, if I'm still connected this evening.)

Awesome it's my turn

. Would someone be kind enough to post a link to the most recent age files? (It'd be nice to explore the age again, and view the changes before starting.)
