Ooh, you're right; it *is* supposed to be spelled with the "u" first. I'll get the corrected version up tomorrow.

I can rig the ruby dragon for sure!
you know there is a chocobo in parasite eve? (there is also a parasite eve movie aparently...it was made LONG before the games...so does that make parasite eve a movie based video game?)
ther is a chocobo skeliton in parasite eve as well but unfortunaly it's part of the prerendered background..so the model is lost to the sands of digital time and space.........when did they stop useing prerendered backgrounds? was in FF9 or FFX?
No problem about the blue dragon; I'll get to it eventually. I've got the Doctor and Alucard on the list first, but then the FFVIII dragons can be next. Or maybe Yojimbo. Oh, and there's Lulu's dolls, but they're gonna be fast; I'll probably do them *before* the Doctor, in fact.
That's weird that there'd be a chocobo in Parasite Eve. Must've been a throw-away gag or something? (Not that that seems like the kind of game that should have gags in it, but...maybe inside joke would be a better word.)
Yeah, the Parasite Eve movie is based on a book. The games are actually sequels to the book/movie. Or something. I dunno; my brother bought the movie at an anime con quite a long time ago, and he looked into all that stuff at the time, but forgotten most of the details of what he told me. (Lately, if he says anything about the Parasite Eve franchise, it's to rant about what a betrayal The Third Birthday is, so I try to avoid the topic...)
FFX was when they stopped using pre-rendered backgrounds. Well, in the Final Fantasy series, anyway. Xenogears, for example, had 3D backgrounds much earlier, but that's entirely different. (And going back to it now, moving the camera around those backgrounds feels really primitive...camera movement mechanics have improved since then...) I rather miss the pre-rendered backgrounds; they looked a lot better. But on the other hand, they limited the interactivity with the locale, so...I guess I can't blame them for wanting to switch. I'd love to be able to rip the background renders from FFVIII and IX, but I have no idea how, unfortunately.
