are you able to do freelance work The concept of this project is alot more than what the programming and designing is mainly about I am wanting to get everything perfect. I am needing someone of your experience maybe we could work something out - we can get the funds after FC is set to go public...
The main thing we are needing worked out is the engine as seeing we have created a very basic one but we are needing one that is a lot more powerful and that the avatars body parts are all cut off meaning that the body parts will be its own moving part arm01 arm02, head01 body01, leg01 leg02 and the engine is able to be changed such as when a user create their own avatar(person) all of the body parts will be changed also to what they select. thanks, Jonathan Fowler ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lutz Paelike" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, July 01, 2004 7:36 AM Subject: <lingo-l> Re:Reference Errors in Director and Shockwave > Hi John, > > Thanks for your help.
