Well, it's really late, but I have two things to talk about.
First, I'm a huge fan of the Thief game series from Looking Glass Studios. Their defunct now, but they have a forum at ttlg.org. Although Eidos Interactive put out Thief III last year, completing the trilogy, it wasn't without its problems. I've been playing all three games just over and over, waiting for something new to come out. Well, there's an incredibly professionally done fan 'expansion' that's actually bigger than Thief I called "Thief 2X: Shadows of the Metal Age." You can download the 655 megabyte file at www.thief2x.com. I just started playing it, and it's very satisfying. 
So that's what's occupying my time right now, when I SHOULD be working on SSD. However, I am gathering my tools once more...music software, video editing software, DarkBASIC Professional, trueSpace 6.6...so I'd like to start development again. I'm also investigating other development options (as always). DarkBASIC also makes a C++ library that I could make actual pure C++ games using DB-like functions, which might be an upgrade option after I develop the game in DBPro. I've also been eyeing this CrystalSpace 3D engine as well...it's open-source and free.
So I'm still under a lot of pressure at work for various projects, but I'm trying my best to make time. -------------------------------
