Making some awesome progress! I've gotten to the point where objects can be programmed to react when a weapon hits them. So things like monsters should be quite simple to make now. The "Hit-able" objects are represented with a bunch of spheres, inside of one big sphere. When the player swings a weapon, the engine does a ray-test to determine if the weapon hits the big sphere, and if so, checks to see if it hits one of the smaller spheres that make up a model.
In other words, you actually have to "hit" an object for the game to think you've hit something!
