"I wonder what this button does..."

Ok, now I got that out system. >.>

I need help with RetroGrp. I'm trieng to compile 595. But there is a problom. After I pressed the 'Compile to Grp' button, it shows the progress bar as normal. Suddenly! The program appears to be 'Not Responding' (for ya'll WinXP users, you know what I mean :( ). After a while, I patiently waited for like 10 secounds. Then it goes out of that 'Not Responding' mode and says the compiling is compleat. Doesn't seem to be a big deal. But when I open the .grp, after frame 575, the rest of the frames are just... black or blank.

Does RetroGrp has a limit or something? I attached all the .bmp files and the .grp into the attatchment. I used a batch renamer tool and RALwriter so I don't think anything is wrong with the list - everything is named and listed correctly. Anyone has time do try to take a crack at it?

I tried compiling your bmps and it worked perfectly. I also looked at the grp you made and it had all kinds of blue spots which led me to believe your RetroGRP works different than mine... thus an older version maybe.
Here (http://s21.quicksharing.com/v/5739401/RetroGRP.zip.html) is a zip with the files I used to install RetroGRP, use 'em and re-try the compilation.

As for the model, it would look a lot better if you put a texture on it rather than making it one color. You also forgot team colors; If you post an *.an8 file here (or PM it to me) I could give you an example of a texture on it.

O... good. The new Retro you gave me does have a different splash screen. I probolly did have different version. I think I had that same Retro program about two years ago.

The Droideka is horrible, I know. Not much of a modeler, although I want to be. Anyway, here ya go.

btw, I still can't believe you made Respite of Honor with anim8or. It's so user unfriendly and time cunsuming. What you did was amazing.

I know it's semi unfreindly. It's basicly a very, very small and compact version of 3ds max. (barely any features compared to max).

I prefere blender myself. Much more user intuitive than anim8or or 3ds max and while it has a few things that could make it better (like a clothes modifier) It's great for everything else.
