Yo.

I am in fact still around. I still visit j2o regularly and the forum occasionally, I definitely don't bother reading everything, but then who does? I haven't stopped by here for a while now though - if I had I would've replied earlier so sorry about that, but anyway...

I'm glad you liked LWE.
Newspaz is right I used Caligari trueSpace (version 5.1 in fact) to create the cutscenes. It took me about half a year to create them. First I did the rough animation, then added in the extra movement and finally the sets.

If you're interested in doing this sort of stuff yourself, have a look at the trueSpace 6.5 demo at http://www.caligari.com or the freeware 3.2 version which can be found there as well.

Also, just because I haven't released anything for ages doesn't mean I've left the community. I'm messing with a few different projects and I might actually get off my *** and do something this summer.
