Ernest just gave me a CD with the muzzle flare on it and we checked it out at the Comp Sci lab. It's pretty cool, and will look good when I add the proper sound effect.
I've got to rush to get the final cut done by friday. The version released on DVD will be much more finished than the one I hope to premeire this friday, but the cut should at least be decent. I have an idea of how to get around the skipping problem by exporting the final versions of edits into movies read straight from the hard drive. I'm working on getting the sound effects from MOHAA. Wish me luck.
