The uni seem to want me not to do a games related project. So, you aren't allowed to work on a gamesy thing, but you ARE allowed to work on 'visualising radio signals'? Hmmm, I hate it when people turn their nose up at games - I mean, is this other idea of any more use to humanity? (it probably is, isn't it? Er, I'll get me coat)... I can't really help you with the tech. details I'm afraid - I'm a bit of a newbie. I just think if you came up with a viable games project and it was KBed, well, that sucks...so here I am being 'outraged' Nick "hatred" F PS Heh, my Psychology literature review is titled: "Immersion and Emotion: the psychological impact of video games"...
