The game looks beautiful, John - a credit to your skills and patience. I certainly learnt a few new skills.

Thanks for documenting it  ^^^

Congrats John, that has come up beautifully.  Like the other guys said thanks for sharing the progress with us, some of us haven't got space/money/time/skills etc to have a restore on the go so for me I really enjoy seeing a restore from start to finish and live vicariously through the author.

I nearly asked you the other day about the leg colour but noticed that when you finally got it outside the correct ones made it on!

Good Job

I thought I'd seen a few of it getting stripped.
800+ that will take a bit of time to look over.

Will check it out tonight.

Thanks for sharing, helps me learn.
