Howard,
I hate to ask, but can you please provide your latest WIP with Lasarus?
BTW do you need any Alpha/Beta testers?

I would be more willing to answer if you spelled it correctly.
It's Lazarus, not lasarus. Normally I ignore spelling mistakes (I make enough of my own) but you've spelled it wrong a few times now. :)
Spelling pronouns badly is one of my pet peeves, like when someone writes: "I've never really played Mortal Combat" (I'll take that frikkin 'C' and shove it straight up their arse.)
Anyway.......................
If you mean wip as in screenshots then there wouldn't be any point. I haven't worked on the skins and even when I do I plan to make the new skin a suprise.
If you mean as in exe, it'll be done when it's done. :)

Howard,
Well, thank-you for pointing out that I've made a spelling mistake with Lazarus. I hope I've not offended you with how it's been accidentally spelt, but in the future I'll make an effort to check that I have spelt it correctly.
Regarding the WIP, I'm not interested when your going to release the .exe or WIP screenshots, but I'm interested in understanding what new features/functionality that you have/are planning to add.

No you didn't offend me at all, it was just starting to get on my nerves so I pointed it out. :)
In terms of features the first releases will be very similar to the current build. The main "feature" is that you don't have to install a thousand support programs to run it..... All you need is laz, your vb runtime files and dx8. That's it!
But currently I'm getting the kinks out of alpha blending the images to the background and adding animated background/overlay support. I actually haven't added 3d model support yet so in a way it's 3 steps forwards and 2 steps back. But with dx8 I know I can easily have the ability to add them back in without the need for plugins, so I'm happy.

Howard,
Thanks for that information.

In the spirit of the post, Howard, I think you mean "nouns", not "pronouns"... ;)
