Just a quick post, I was able to get a little time to myself tonight so I made some quick flowers.


I have uploaded a gift for you! Get it Here:
http://www.eaglesoftworks.com/Sandbox/C ... s_Gift.rar
Just download it and try it out in your level, the file contains the Tree and the Flowers models.
I have included the Milkshape raw model file so you can change it if you want and make your own
design! There are no restrictions on these models; you can do whatever you want with them.
Use them, sell them, print them off and paste them to your wall <giggles> it doesn’t matter.
I hope you have fun with them most of all.

Merry Christmas guys~ I’m glad to be your friend~~ XOXOXOX!
Always~

If possible, I suggest using an archive format other than RAR, due to its proprietary nature. We've a few Linux users on this site (including myself and Hirato) and RAR support is not included by default in most Linux distros.

I instead recommend using either Gzip or Bzip compression, the compression ratio is quite high with both, and there's many free open source programs for Windows that allow extraction and compression of Gzip/Bzip archives. Not to mention, Gzip/Bzip archives are supported by Mac OS X and Linux by default, so you can distribute your archives and have them accessible by users of all three of the major OS's.

I myself use Peazip when I am booted into Windows, works quite well (and it does handle RAR and 7zip archives, if I remember right) -- I recommend using that as it is very user friendly.

we mainly insist on ZIP, see the packaging guide!

Today I added a lot more detail to the building and surrounding area.
I have been working hard on actor models and hope to have you some shots of those soon.







I still have a lot to do but I will keep you posted on my progress.
