This is all good stuff - looks like i'll be giving you a gallery page so we don't have to post things like this in here ;D What I've seen of these images below show some great stuff - the ingame is very very good quality! However, we could work on some of these graphics a little more to achieve that A* grade quality, by giving some additional details - they don't have to be functional, but a more blended variating appearance may give some feel of a more continuous piece. This looks very promising already. On a seperate note, it could also be possible to do something which other Meta Rooms have not - most of us have played Creatures 2, where things were very densely inhabited. We could potentially recreate such a feeling with these caves by adding a dense tunnel system consisting of multiple levels, with various things contained within, such as a vault door, leading to a controlled environment within a sphere only a few meters across. Great stuff! Looks very promising to me

We could do that, but the adult grendels prove a problem by they're size. Of course, it is'nt finished, and we still have the programming to do but it should be good. remember we'll be haveing a lot of new animals.

Will that grendel breed be coming out with the meta room. I have never seen them so i persume that they are a new breed you are working on. If they are already out can you please tell me the website.

Grendel breed? Did I mention a grendel breed? unless you are talking about the sullen grendels (which are just a genome) then I don't know what you're talking about.

You'll have to ask -AJ- about that, he did the pictures.

Hiya! I read the Biodome pages on A2K and It seemed like a great idea! So I volounteered to help and Skarsnik said he needed all the help he can get, so here I am! I'm mostly an ideas person but I can do *some* Caos. Visit my website at www.freewebs.com/nornfinity/ to get my first agent! I think its rather cute! Okay, too many exclamation marks. hope to hear from ya soon, Liamlala

Brilliant! Could you help with the sprites? Contact AJ, he's doing the sprites at the moment.

Ok, legend has it that I can code, so here I am for your CAOS needs. I started some work on a weather agent. I know we are after seasons, so I thought I would work on that base. I have made clouds that rain when it is hot and snow when it is cold. Simple at the moment, but I am planning to make it more complex. If there is anyone out there who says they know a bit of CAOS, I would be happy to take them on to train...it is rather hard when only one person can code. I can also do some 3D artwork, but I think you need a coder more at the moment.

I'd agree, they definitely need a coder It's something they've been looking for and I'm sure Skarsnik will be very happy to take you onboard in that capacity. That weather agent sounds like it has some potential. I believe that the weather systems are to be linked up to one nice big central computer. You might want to talk to Skarsnik about it. Welcome to Ambershee's ;D

If the plan is to have the weather controled by a weather bank like in the C3 terrariums, than that is no problem. All the agents will key of external factors, like if it is hot, cold, dry, wet or whatever. That way all the main control will need to do is alter the amount of CA in the room and all the weather agents will respond. I will also be using the same method to control the plants and animals in the meta-room (So animals can have different coloured fur in winter for example.) If people can produce the images, I can code it...lets get rocking.
