Phew... been grounded lateley, dad blames warcraft for me failing bio 4th quarter but i managed to get on for few hours and checked my emails, talked to people and of course UPDATED MY MAP!

So far I have set the basic terrain down for 75% of the map, but only just enough to give me a picture of how the map will look, and finished completeley the opening area, city, and cave entrance. (screenshot #4) I almost finished the main character skills, still hqave to do one more trigger to get it working. COMPLETELEY finished the opening cinematic area and fully planned out storyline for all of this map (and a bit of the sequel... whooops! thats a secret 0_o ) I scrapped the idea of making a sneak-preview beta test of the opening sequence as i got it to flow so smoothly through the whole map that seeing the opening alone would be a waste, there should be an open beta test hopefully before the 29th (off to alaska)... heres some spoilerage
