Thanks for the back up guys, I appreciate it immensely. I'm not posting about AGM to put it down at all, I think it is a great concept and will help potential game developers get a feel for game creation, which in turn will be a benefit to us all. I hope the AGM guys understand we love their program, but without support and answers to our questions, we are just going to be frustrated and end up not using it, especially the hundreds of people that have downloaded it and have no real concept of how to make a well balanced game and are hoping to learn with AGM. Again, I remind AGM users I have created a game called Godzilla Smash that several people can work on and give each other feedback on it, if you want to join in, send me an email off list, I will be sending out the game files shortly, which include some way cool sound effects not found in the AGM download. Later, Che
