Hi guys. I have some bad news.

There are only two days left in November as of this blog post. Previously, I promised the Arokai character editor some day in November, but unfortunately I have to delay it to December. Unless everyone wants a broken character editor. Well, it's not really broken, save for one problem.

"What's the problem, then?"

Here's the technical answer. The problem is texture rendering. Currently, due to my lack of programming foresight, I use flash materials via the library Hikari to render textures onto a character. When a character is created and then destroyed when the user goes back to the species selection screen, the multiple flash materials are also created and destroyed... Creating memory leaks in the process. This ultimately causes the creator to crash after the fifth time a character is created.

The solution is to throw out the flash materials and use cg shaders to texture the characters instead. Unfortunately, this entails a lot more time and work on my part, compared to using flash materials like before, because I have to revisit the code and rewrite a lot of things.

Hence, the reason for the delay.

Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Yes it's gone

Due to the large amount of confusion the last journal caused I have removed it. It reached the ears it was meant to, and thus it has found it's purpose.

I would like to personally thank those of you who were considerate enough to give well wishes in the current situation. Such stress can be hard to deal with.

Those still with lingering questions? Patience. Information will be posted once I am fully ready. No it doesn't involve the game, it involves the community that resides here. Which is easily as important as the game, which would be nothing without a strong community.

Just remember, everyone makes mistakes, nothing can be perfect, life carries on, and so do you.

Thank you for your time.
Please try to be a considerate user of the internet and just act like the true human you are until things calm down. I know you can do it, I believe you can, all of you. <3
