Absolutely amazing mission! I played this for the second time over the weekend. it has losts of replay value as there was plenty of things in the city that I had not discovered during the first play through. The city really does feel like a living and breathing city. I enjoyed just standing in random parts of the city doing nothing but soaking in the view and the atmosphere.

 

The Cathredral is really beautiful! Is this based on a real cathedral in St. Albans? Unfortunately I had to come on here find help for the second clue. I hate it when I can't work out puzzles for myself. I think the second clue might have been a bit too hard. To be fare though as I was running around the cathedral I did trip over the slab that fell from that arch and just dismissed it as some useless rubble. If I had paid more attention I would have noticed the lever above.

 

This is probably my favourite mission based on appearance. As far as gameplay goes it was too easy due to minimal AI. I see you have added more AI. so will download the new version next time I want to play this map.

 

Thank you very much for such a superb effort! I look forward to playing V2 of return to the city.

I will be releasing an updated version of this mission shortly, more details, more Ai, a tiny bit more info on the clues, more tools for the player at the start and the map performance a bit better to boot!

We're waiting for it! :D

Task is not so much to see what no one has yet seen but to think what nobody has yet thought about that which everybody see. - E.S.

Hey guys,

 

Loving St Albans Cathedral. Just one issue though. Which room belongs to the Inventor Diplomat, and how do I frame him? Do I just drop the skull (with 'R') in the room?

 

I've found one room on the top floor of the cathedral with what looks like a Mechanist gear in it. Dropped the skull in there and nothing happened. Am I doing it wrong or do I have the wrong room?

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?
