Hi,

Thanks for your help. I've downloaded "Breeze" and managed to get a very
simple cube made up of six planes out of it and onto the playstation,
but I'm still struggling with the textures side of things.

It appears Breeze uses GIF files for textures. I'm not sure if it will
accept textures that I can convert to TIM format, but I must admit I
haven't really had much time to get used to the package yet.

If anyone knows how textures can be used in Breeze and converted for use
in the playstation, I'd love to hear from you.

Thanks once again. I'll keep you posted about how my game progresses,
but it's going to be sloooowww!!!

	Jon.
