Wow, this looks awesome, did you happen to get an ETA on this program since your last response?

[Samuryo]

well, i did some work on the project, made a second version which works different and many more, but still no ETA sorry...

its kind of frozen right know, because i am working on my university degree, but maybe i will put some more videos on, showing some of the new stuff.

I am really glad people like it... i made the video just to contribute to inspiring other people...

i got hooked on stuff like that years ago by karl simms videos.

Cool, I'd love to see more videos on this.

I only recently got interested in this but I dont have anything near the experience I'd need to code/develope something like this.

[Samuryo]

oh you should see how i started... some really ugly stuff... but even if you start small you can do interesting things, and whatever you try, you always lern, and the next thing you try will be twice as good...

Can we expect this (the program) to ever be available for download?

I would love to see what it can do.

[Samuryo]

I can give you a 100% maybe on that.

Its only a one man freetime project, and until now i think its not worth a download, but i hope it will in the future.

But for the most part its just for me... i just love evolution and all the emergence thingys in the world, so i have to try to recreate some...

Oh boy i would simulate a universe if i could hehe

Glad to have helped. Looks like a great project!

[RoySchl]

thank you, i will, but there is still a lot of work to do...

btw. i contacted you some time ago from another account and asked you some questions. So you see, it helped...

Your interface looks fantastic! I hope you'll evolve and post some more creatures :)
