Hectic week with my part time job, didnt have any time to work on the engine but tonnes of time to rethink things. Ive come up with a file system Im calling MARS (Mesh, Animation, Rig, and Skeleton files) that all work together to create a 3D textured, animated model on the iPhone. I think Ive fleshed everything out on paper, I just need to get to work and actually invent the filetype.

First things first, gotta load up Maya and see if I can remember back to my MEL scripting years in college. Shouldnt be too hard, Ill cover the Mesh filetype first. Pretty simple, just need to get Maya to export all of the selected models into my own format. Goodfella's is on AMC, that'll help.
