*Improving textures and 3D models
*Improving textures and 3D models
:My main focus lately has been improving the look of the key models (you know, the major characters). There are two basic issues with models that can exist. The first is a discrepancy between an in-game 3D model and the art as drawn by [[Lorraine]]. This is most noticeable with [[:Image:Poly Mods-Griffin Notes.png|Griffin]] and [[:Image:Poly Mods-Muro Notes.png|Muro]]. The second issue is simply a lack of polygons; the models were not bad in 2001 but can use some work to keep them looking decent in 2008.

:After that, I plan to move on to either Muro or Konoko. Maybe Shinnie after that.
