Hi everyone,

This is the first time i contribute writing in this forum. I'm a big fan of the Sachs Marine Aquarium. The past chat with Jim was a nice experience.

Well, let's talk about that famous Toolkit...
I got it some time ago using Emule (a p2p application).
I unpacked it, read the instructions, and also tryied it. My oppinion: it is a bit crappy.
The author explains how to change the resources inside the executable file (well, actually the .scr file :-).
So you can change the background (very buggy) and extract the fish textures, replace them and so on...
The author gives you a resource decompiler (well, extractor). It also brings with a simply 3D mesh loader and creator, so you can change (in theory) the fish 3D mesh and its movements.

He also claims to have done a sea turtle, with its 3D mesh, textures, and movement. It is very easy to extract a fish texture, and replace it by another one, or colorize it with photoshop, etc...

I have it, so, if you are interested, i could upload it to some FTP.

I wish you the best kind of luck with your software, because it is awesome! Keep up the good work
Sincerely,
Sergio.
