did some1 model Totoro? or is that from the movie and i didnt notice it was 3D? Awsome sounding Idea not many pirate MMORPG's. Loopix has great plant models for some nice island plant life if your set in like the Corribean (however you spell it) google loopix project. he has some nice free samples and his tropical plant pack is 15 bucks really great stuff, you could easily convert it to some anime looking models, if I were you I would have just characters cell shaded and the rest of the world realistic. Could save you some plant modeling time... If you dont have a 3D engine already I suggest either Irricht, Ogre3D, or CrystalSpace all free great 3D engines! I personally prefer Ogre3D the best it has great Resource managment for easy loading and unloading of models, textures, Shader Languages, particles, materials, you name it, all easy. Also if you dont have them already you might want to collect some 2D artists and some Sound People. Thats all i have to say good luck with your game.

apparently someone modeled Totoro from the Anime move "My friend Totoro" and cell shaded it. It was on Cartoon Network Last month.

It seems you've thought this out well! Although your ideas seem to be flowly freely from your clearly creative (what the hell is it with me and alliterations?!?) mind, there are one or two things you could improve in a request for help such as this.

First of all, have a quick look over your post and make sure all punctuation and spelling is correct. It makes things look a lot more professional - a good deal of skilled developers won't even take a second glance at a badly presented proposition.

Secondly, talk with respect! I can understand how annoying it is to have people constantly asking to be a "Game Moderator", "Marketer" or "Idea0rz submitt0rz" but you just have to put up with it! No-one likes to be spoken to with a commanding tone and some of the individuals with talent browsing through your post may be put off! Also, don't forget that in most development teams, Game Designers are often looked for; what if a trained individual with a degree from a respectable University in Literal Composition happened to be browsing through the site? That would certainly be a major loss!

Otherwise, I wish you the best of luck in the development of your game and truly look forward to its release, as I am an avid follower of both cell shading and piracy! God Speed!
