Hmmm does Starbucks deliver in Southern Oregon?

And what was wrong with that great spread you had before, and what of that blue tractor you have?

Sooooo when does Jim O'Connor get to start working on the Mac port of MA3?

Tarkus · 11-24-2007, 04:42 PM

Yes, that is awesome news, even if it's just a sneak preview!

patscarr · 11-24-2007, 05:28 PM

Wow! 50/50 we get to see something by Christmas! That's so awesome!

Hot · 11-24-2007, 06:19 PM

OK 50/50 that sounds awesome I can't wait to see it.
Oh and thanks for the Big Welcome.

Don't get too excited, - someone is bound to ask, "But which Christmas?" ... Whoops! - I just did!

How about if I ask "for which operating system?"

All right, the wife's Intel-based iMac is ready and waiting - Parallels and Windows XP are standing by. Bring on the MA3 sneaky peek

Jim Sachs · 11-25-2007, 01:35 AM

Jim O'Connor is poised to do the Mac conversion, if I can ever get the background finished. And collision detection. And the new fish movement.

Well, at least you don't have much to do on it.

OK then let's have everybody clear off this forum for a while. Let Jim Sachs get on with the business of backgrounds, collision detection, and new fish movement.

If Jim had to respond every time a post appeared on this forum he'd wind up talking to himself!

Jim Sachs · 11-26-2007, 06:12 PM

Personally, I'd prefer if everyone gave up their weapons. Except me, of course.

Ha, ha - I'm not sure how we got so far off. Maybe Morgan can move all these recent posts to the "Building House" thread.

I'll try for a little course correction: I've been considering the Pylei Wrasse for an early addition to the Creature Packs http://www.liveaquaria.com/general/g...al_pagesid=337

I'd rather increase the odds of an MA3 sneaky peek by Christmas and NOT have you work on the Pylei Wrasse

According to the link, they require a coral reef aquarium, so I'm guessing you have coral in MA3 already. I know you are a stickler for realism!

Jim,
The dump? You need to check this new site called eBay...

Blommers,
People bring their dogs as they (dogs) are incapable of being on their own. Now turtles on the other hand...

Blommers/Ed,
Then I choose "lose it".

Jim Sachs · 11-26-2007, 08:33 PM

JB - Don't worry, I'm not working on that fish (or any new fish) until I get MA3done. But this IS the "Wishlist" thread, and I just happened to stumble on that link, so I thought I'd add it to the wishlist. With 28 of the most popular marine aquarium fish already in the tank, there really aren't that many suitable ones left. I figure I'll need about 10 more regular fish for the two Creature Packs, to go with 10 invertabrates.

Nice... A wrasse would be great, Jim.

Here is a video of a golden wrasse.... on youtube.

Thanks, Everret - Videos are always useful in learning how the critters move.
