Added a new monster : spider (thanks to Wciow and John.d.h).
New model for the hero : a goth woman (thanks to TiZiana). The quality of animations is quite poor: this is my first attempt at animating a 3D model :P. I'll soon try to improve her animations, and i'll upload the result on OGA.
Started to work on the inventory. You can now switch weapon with the ones you dropped and drag potions on the shortcut bar.
Monsters can now drop items. Added new items (katana, staff, mace, HP, SP and MP potions). Potions stack and give 10 units back.
Reduced the map size: the previous maps were a little too big, causing overflows in vertices buffers.
Improved transparency: trees should have a better look.
Started to use jquery : skills and items should now be draggable with all recent browsers.
The description of skills and items is now shown when the mouse is over the icon.
Improved the pause a little bit.
Now a 'miss' appear when dodging attacks.
Next time i'll try to add more content and add a little quest system.
"Please use these models with or without credit to me, I am releasing them openly to the general public for unlimited commercial and non-commercial purposes."
I had to say I liked his page, here is the model list :
For the moment Brekel, and other softwares, can export data to bvh, and then you can import bvh into blender. The problem is to match the bvh skeleton with the model's skeleton :/.
I think one of the best solution would be to combine preset rooms with random positions. It's very hard to randomly generate a room that has a good look, but generating a random maze is quite easy.
And in diablo 2, not all levels are random (inner cloaster, chaos sanctuary, baal throne, ...).
It's quite fast and easy to randomly generate a level for FLARE (without accounting the quality of the level of course) with a python script. If people want random levels, they can try generating their own, submit them to the comunity and get a vote, then the generating algorithm of top rated levels would be implemented.
I'll have to replace skeletons' sword :P. Nice work ! I'll use this set in my game, for sure.
Updates for v 0.04:

Very nice ! I'll have to try this game :P.

It seems they all are in obj and are not textured. I'm still at work, if no one else has time, I will upload them later.

A thread on brekel's website speaking about directly using kinect into blender : http://www.brekel.com/?page_id=368/general-discussion/um-blender/
But the most promising things I've seen in forums so far is : http://blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?207281-Using-OSC-in-Blender-2.5-Game-Engine-(with-Kinect-captured-data)
And a nice video here : http://www.kinect-hacks.com/kinect-hacks/2011/02/12/controlling-virtual-...
I resolved my problem with blender, and managed to export it to md5, so the model is now ingame :).
In the animation, idle could be improved a little bit : the corpse is quite static, perhaps add a small vertical movement ?
Anyway, I'm very happy with it, you both did a great job !
The format is more like a .ini
You can open FLARE map files in a text editor and see how they are writen. Additional information can be found in the thread given by Clint.
