HL is an early format to suport bones. less advance then MD4 but great if you wish to keep things low polygon.

I thought it would mean more detail and therefor, slower gameplay, but thanks for proving me wrong

Umm Guys. Bones are faster. Why? Because the psp has hw matricies for bones (7 to be exact). Hell the psp even has hw suport for skinning. MD2 requires me to do alot of floating point calculations in software vs letting the hardware do it (which the psp can do for bones).

Also again, The Beat-em up is not a fighter like Street Fighter, Its a beat-em up like Double Dragon, Final Fight & Captain Comando.

OK, i'm not at all technical, so i'll just have to believe you.

Iris is great and the fighting game sounds like it will be a hit among us PSP homebrewers.

Heh, actualy I was not refering to you. I was refering to others who continued to question bones.

it's pretty funny how it turned out gaydar is actually donkey and he comes here asking when 3.0 is coming out when he says he has a full speed n64 emu

Right now I am working on a new engine for iris & the new game. The big reason being Iris is becomming a mess. I might post up 1 more build to iris this week (hopefuly) fixing doors but no promiss on that.

thats cool.

I heard that you were planning on making a modable gui for iris. I think it would be great if you did. It would also be nice if you could make it so like when you highlited a map it would show a picture of it, same for players to.
