I have Steam, you can find me with the username of FuriousChad. I also have Playfire with the same name.
I'll add you to Steam I really dont have anyone to instant message with these days so I dont even have Skype intalled (have an account though). I'm a lone wolf.

Edit: Added. I dont particularily like Steams resource hogging. I'll download playfire and see how laggy it is.

The person that welcomed me to help co-develop the community ocean project who is a forum moderator says this is the most crazy time he has ever seen in his history of Unreal and the free version was only released 5 hours ago. I love that even free, you get EVERYTHING even the source code. Anyone with enough time and skills, or skills and money, or time and money can create blockbuster games in their free-time now.

Edit2: Ehhh playfire is buggy and uses up more memory than Blender! Steam it is. Wow I did not realize I've been on Steam for 10 years. A decade badge is kinda cool. It looks like Epic Games implemented a small friends messanger in their Epic Games Launcher (tracks your projects/installed engine vesrions/assets & more)

Edit3: Worked on the sail and got the deck bevel down. Gonna work on it with a clear mind tommorrow. I lose my steam (no pun intended) after dinner. Updates on the hull tomorrow!

You can see the wrinkles clearly here as I struggle to get the bow "to shape" its a very very interesting shape progression.



Edit4: Ok worked a bit more and just guessed on the bow. Still lots of wrinkles to iron out but the topology is still perfect which I take pride in so it can be pushed and pulled and geometry added or taken away anywhere. Not bad for a days work. You could use that in a game alpha (which I will be doing. soon. (perfectionist))


I came up with an idea for some acheivments feel free to add a list of creative or funny ones: im keeping a list of them on github for the beta 1.0 release.
