lmao
That would be fun to have them suddenly show up at bus stops lol.
Latest on the DS front is actually pretty good. The level split, currently dividing JPDS1 into 4 levels - JPDS~streams, JPDS~plains, JPDS~trails, JPDS~forest, is reducing the stress considerably with any given action that takes place. Less stuff piling up per level I guess, I'm sure the engine appreciates it too. JPDS~plains is even 99% completed, aside from the dinosaur work Tatu will be doing next, which is just awesome. Next I am going to be getting the full dinosaur set ready.. It's apparent that JPDS really did need this split, I won't even dare to say how many different species are being included.
Another bit of good news in all this. It's now entirely possible that we will be releasing JPDS~streams and JPDS~plains sooner than the other two levels, meaning you all will get to play something sooner.
Also means the download will not be quite so gargantuan. The area of JPDS~forest is essentially completed in the sublevel for that zone, already, so it's likely it will come out at the same time as JPDS~trails. Tatu will work on dinos in the plains when he gets back next week, Nem will be working on foliage and dinos as soon as I give him level files, and Mickey is currently putting additional mountain foliage in JPDS~plains. Well, more news later. Drac.

That's great! How big are these mini-levels going to be? Retail Trespasser level sized? Smaller? Bigger? Either way, sounds great!

Retail Trespasser level sized. What you don't remember is that TestScene is a retail level too...

Hehe, well, imagine TC_Isle, without the ocean or underground area (just the island). Each of these levels is about twice that size.. well the first one is a little bigger.
