School is going to kill me. I have been working on Homework all weekend and I still havent gotten it done. I guess I am just to much of a perfectionist for my own good. We will see what happens. I am still working on the NPC and the rest of the design components for Haeven. I am taking sometime off of mma to focus my time on school and this MOD. I am really excited about this project still. Just as if not more excited then I was when Damon first brought the Idea to my attention for the first time and asked me if I wanted to be a part of it. I am hoping school will settle down a little bit so I can work more on the game. Like I have said befor and i know i am repeating myself but I should have some stuff on the site for you guys to see soon. Take care all...

The Devolep meeting is under way... Damon our CEO is working on the login client, login webpage registration, and database. One of our texture artists (his name is Josh) is working on some mapping and making the game look great... I am working on some more concept work, dialogues, quests, and the NPCs for the game. We are estimating 5000 NPCs for each of the different maps that the player will be interacting in at any given time. They will not all be clumped together necessarily. I will post more when I know more. We havent discussed much because we are all taking last minute notes and finishing up some stuff befor we really start to go to much in to details on stuff.

We are supposed to have a devolpment meeting tonight as well. I was really looking forward to going to Fort Collins to meet with some of the team to work on this project as well as discuss it further with my audio guys and my programmers. The only problem is that it is rainning hard here and I am driving on a spare. I dont necessarily know if driving 70 miles in the ran at 75 mph on a spare is a good idea or not lol. I am looking into other possibilities for how i might get there for the meeting. I will keep all of you updated. If i end up making it I should have more notes to add to my blog to let you know how everything is coming along. I am looking forward to this so hopefully something good will happen and i will be able to make it tonight... Wish me luck! The more i get to meet with these guys the faster I can get there approval on the art work and the faster we can get this project to you guys... We will just have to wait and see what happens. I dont get why this has to happen now... Damn Set backs lol!

Well I just started another term of college and have been working really hard on the design aspect of the haeven project. I have recently been working on character concepts, sequential art for the townspeople and vendors, different diaologue of the NPC's that you will encounter in the game, as well as, quests, items, weapons, and new items... There is alot of work. I went to school from 8 to 5 today on two hours of sleep because I am working so hard on this project to hopefully have a demo set up of this game by the original expected date which is 4 months out. Is that realistic? Maybe... With how hard everyone is working on this project it is a possibility and I have seen what our team can do. I dont want to put anything on the site concept art wise qwite yet. The reason being is that the artwork both on the concept and sequential side are not completely proportionate so I cant use them for 3d mapping yet. The movements just dont look right and anyone that has done character mapping or any rig work in the past knows this qwite well I am sure... I do plan on getting atleast some up soon. I am also working on building designs and a tattoo vendor for this new version of the game... I am having alot of fun with this project. My instructors at school have agreed to allow me to work on this project in class as well for a grade so I have people in the game art and game devolpment programs giving me input and helping me to get this project done on time. If you have any questions, concerns, comments, or advice for me feel free to either post it in a comment or write me a message. Thanks...

So... I have started on the NPC designs for the Haeven Project. I am designing the character that the player will interact with while they play the game. I will also be working on vendors and shop owners/employees in our version of the game. I should have some rough sketches up soon and then the fun part starts. 3d animation yaaaahhh. i cant wait lol. Like i said i am going to school for this so I dont know it like the back of my hand quite yet so bare with me. It is a work in progress but i am always open for suggestions.... thanks!!!
