Do we have a thread collecting lootlists for TDM missions ?

I would like to expand that and update that, if possible.

So, ever since my novella 'Shadowcursed' got nominated for a Reader's Choice Award, I've been submitting it to various Indie book review sites so I can increase the number of reviews I have on Amazon/

I just read The Dark ones reviews of my (old/only) missions and man, honest words they are! (No, I don't roam the forums as much as I should ;) ) My stomach hurts everytime I think about my earliest works and I was surprised that even if the majority of the points were negative he could actually find some things that he liked, haha.

 

Believe it or not, I've not quit mapping. My motivations sway between mapping and painting miniatures and skydiving, three things that eat up time from when I don't work at the ICU ...

I have no ETA for the upcoming mission but I have made good progress the last days with my girlfriend helping with the readables and other stuff... It's so frustrating to relearn everything; objectives and folder structures and so on, takes so much time when you haven't mapped for some time...

You aren't the only one who doesn't roam the forums as much as he should. :P

For what it's worth I also wince whenever I look back at my reviews of your work, since I feel that some of my comments are a little personal or insulting. I've grown weary of the internet cynicism that says that the most creatively vitriolic criticism is the "correct" one. I stand by what I said about your missions (especially the good parts! Reap As You Sow does have a lot of interesting ideas in it that I would have liked to see refined), but not necessarily how I said it.

I look forward to playing your next mission. :)

Because in mystery novels, the first suspect is almost certainly never the murderer. No matter how much unmovable evidence there is, it will all be smashed in pieces by the wrath of the remaining number of pages of the story.

I always liked reading your reviews. And I never really got the feeling that you were being too savage on things you didn't like.

I don't think your comments were too personal. More like it gives the review a more personal flair and colour. Not just a boring, totally objective look on the mission. I usually fall into the desire to create unique gameplay when I make my missions, and though my next one will have some special aspects, it won't contain any uncharted/unique gameplay styles ;)

I don't know which tasks you have completed, rescue the girl is only one of them in this mission. See in the list of objectives and where you must go then, if it's complete, if not, you can't finish the mission.

      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?

      Hope everyone has the blessing of undying motivation for "The Dark Mod 15th Anniversary Contest". Can't wait to see the many magnificent missions you all may have planned. Good luck, with an Ace!
