Which is [u]design work[/u].
its all very well to come up with a million idea's and think "wow this would be great!", and then try and get all the content done, but never actually know where to start under the heaps of stuff you've drawn and written and whatever. So I have alot of idea's and stuff, which no doubt will come back later, and some of them really are too big to think about right now.

So I need to organise and prioratise and keep that basic idea's and bare bones of what I want in mind. Once this is done I can then start to expand. Never before. I would really hate to get sucked into the dream state that so many start off in, but soon realise that it isnt so simple.

So I just to keep this in mind here is what I need to do as bare basics of design:

- An overal Idea (done)
- Player race sketches and story (basic look and story outline)
- Player Models (None)
- NPC race sketches and story (stories yes, some sketches)
- NPC models (Very basic WIP "Snus" Model)
- weapons design (Some sketches and early designs)
- Weapon models (A few basic models, some textured.)
- World texture design (Still being worked on with a fair few textures having been created.)
- Foliage (A few basic images)
- Basic scenery model design (Several pages of idea's ahave been drawn up for simple models.)
- Basic models (I have a crate and rock, both textured. Thats about it...)
- Standard building design (None)
- Standard building models (None)
- Important building design (None)
- Important building models (None)
- Animation idea's (Working on it)
- GUI (Front page background done, nothing else.)

Why has so much of it been half done? because I cant focus on one thing constantly, it does my head in and I lose the drive for it. So I move onto other parts of the project. I also realise that this is all graphical stuff. I cant program. I plan on getting some very basic things done, and then trying to gather a team of hobbyist developers to help me.
