Hello all, I have a few question I would like to ask so here they are...

1. Would my game run faster if everything were made of entities or blocks?



Models render the fastest. You can have 100,000 visible polygons and still get past 60 fps on an old Radeon 9600 XT without updated drivers.

2. What is the best model editor for modeling besides MED, 3Ds Max, or Maya?



There's a whole host of choices. MED comes with Gamestudio but is very limited and quite buggy (mostly minor bugs though). Along with 3DS Max and Maya, there's Blender, Wings 3D, Terragen (used for making terrains, not general models), and likely many more.

3. Can I make levels in a seperate program? (I'm not dissing WED, I just want to try somthing different)



I use MED to make levels with. Since model-only levels are much faster than levels made with blocks allowing for far more detail in shape and design (and near-instant build times), you should use some sort of modelling program for this.

4. Where is the best place to find plug-ins for WED, MED, and SED?



This I don't know anything about. Someone else will have to help you with this.

PS. I have got acknex.exe working, the problem was my video drivers.



I didn't think the video drivers had anything to do with it, but glad you got it fixed.

PPS. Doug, I wish I knew this before-hand, The copy is legit, but My friend is in Russia right now with his powerintruth group. I'll ask him for his A6 password when he gets back.



Do not ask for the password. It is illegal to do so.
