A changed cursor is a good idea - much less frustrating!
Unfortunately, there's nothing more to do after the briefcase is open in the posted version, which is little more than a sandbox right now.
Regarding optimisation.. As you rightly point out, it's way too slow at present, and it will be optimised soon. I'm not too worried though - I think it'll be quite easy to do. The thing that really hurt the speed was when I stopped merging objects into one mega-object (I ran into problems with object picking) so I'll go back to merging the walls/floor. Also, my isIndoor=false, my farPlane is huge, so there's plenty of stuff for me to tweak
Right now, the modeller is busy building new scenes, and trial audio loops and clips are being prepared. Once we have enough scenes we'll storyboard it properly and see what happens.
I thought that scripting a good story would be easy.. it's hard! :lol:
