Well i've had an interesting weekend. A friend of mine was having problems with his PC and asked me if i could check to see if he had assembled it correctly (which he hadn't). But the main thing is that he had a quad core processor in his machine. Because i ahd all weekend before he picked the PC back up i popped the processor in my machine and, oh my god, it flew. I tried out a section of video to see if the processor could cope with it and it didn't grind to a hault, unlike my dual core, when i tried the same thing. What is thing that i tried you may ask? well here's a clue:

The file is about 100mb and is a low bitrate, so not what the final quality would be like. It isn't a finished sample (with some FX tweaks needed)but i just had to see if it could do it. The audio is again only a temp track, with a bit that may please GoodMusician, and even though you ahve seen most of the clip before, you haven't seen it like this and it also features the Better Taun Taun facial movements. The colouring is slightly different too. there was still too much blue in the last clip so i reduced it more, without making the snow grey. Much happier with it now

I'll answer some of the questions posted here over the weekend later.
