Finished Scene 3, really not too much trouble, save for the prep work.

I tied some loose ends from Chapter 1 that I left lying around, I'm sure for the 3 or 4 people who still remember Ch 1, their minds will be blown adequately.

To be honest, Scenes 1-4 are roughly dialogue and plot progression, Scene 5 will be 90% epic fight scene, and I want to make it worth the wait for those who go through all the hectic reading, if you're intrigued about the plot, then it ought be a treat, if you're there for the action, then jump to the last Scene.

I have to do prep work for Scene 4, Act 14. But it won't be that hard, more so since it'll be the shortest scene in the chapter.

I had a fair bit of fun doing prep work for Scene 3, I had to change a few palettes for the mysterious Red Chaos Sonic (not a "new" character, don't worry....he really doesn't have a lot of screen time after this chapter), editing character mugs and making new MCs for higher animation purposes.
CS4 is fun work with, and I've finally gotten used to it

I'm still pretty dedicated to keeping an adequate amount of sounds in this chapter, but until I get to the fight scene, I won't have to worry about much. I've certainly made more of a balanced library than I did before.
Chapter 1 was a mess in output.
Chapter 2 was a disaster in the fla.

But I found a balance and Chapter 3 will be fairly lightweight in the fla and a step up from Chapter 2 in substance. I have some close in shots using a fake zoom, more sounds, more music and another extras section containing an easter egg hunt for custom colored Chaos Emeralds.

Everything is going nicely and I can't wait to get to the climax so I can work on the epic fight scene.
Unlike Chapter 2, where I was seriously running out of frames (reaching the 16k limit) and memory to run the fla, I have plenty of space and I predict that I'll have roughly 8k frames to work with.

Surely this will be the biggest fight scene in Chaos Sonic yet.
Hype.
