I'll probably redo the fish models next, but after that there are two animated objects that I've been planning to add: a feather-duster worm and a sea apple.

You shouldn't have said that, Jim. - What's the betting that before the day is out, - some one will say... "I can't wait for...!"

Oh wow, I can't wait for the feather duster. :)

Now the suspense is gone. ;)

I can't wait for the sea apple!:)

I can't wait for the updated fish behaviour / textures!

Just to complete the set of 'can't wait for's! :D

.... But you're all going to have to! :p :roflmao:

It's a wonder that Jim puts up with any of us. :roflmao:

Money maybe? :D

Money? I got all the money you guys are willing to part with about a decade ago :)

:)

Looking forward to the new models.

Ouch - And I even registered v3 for my 85 year old dad. :p

Not necessarily.

Like some others here, in spite of your earlier generous offer, I just bought an upgrade to V3. I know $9.95 won't go far, but I've already got more than my money's worth from this program.

Thanks for the great work, Jim.

Not entirely true... I suspect others may have done the same as me. I bought a new license at full price for MA3. I think it is inexpensive at 19.95 and well worth supporting your ongoing endeavors.:TU:

Greatly appreciated. Maybe I'll work on a surprise for you guys.

I bought 3 copys my self 1 for my mother of 84 years 1 for my sister inlaw and one for my self and have the money for you when the creature packs are ready

Surprises are nice... (hints are nice too)

Exactly what (and why) I did a few weeks ago when I purchased a new laptop (my desktop was dying a very s l o w death).

I think MA3 is pretty awesome as it now stands but I must admit that I'm really looking forward to it's gradual improvements, changes & additions as time goes by.

:TU:

well, the clams are really quite splendid...thank you, Jim...it makes the anticipation level for everything else greater..

I thought the $9.95 upgrade price was a deal...considering the years and amount of enjoyment that we got out of MA and MA2...this is a whole new beast..I look forward to it's continued developement...

Great work on the clams! I like them a lot.

Jim: Is there a plan to ever animate the anemone at the far right of the tank (and perhaps make the clownfish reside there)? I expect that would be a horrendous amount of work but it would be unbelievably cool. (I'm just curious -- not trying to add more tasks to your already over-flowing plate.)
