I was wondering if anyone from the community or DarkMod team could make a Coop mode for the TheDarkMod? I was trying to do the coop mod with my friend on Thief II: The Metal Age and we didn't really understood it very good. So, is there anyway possible to make a coop mod that is easy to do and the community could make coop fan missions for? I would love to have a server browser but if you can't IP Address connecting would be fine too. :ph34r::ph34r:



Thanks to the people who reply to this new topic..

There's a thread like this almost every 3 months.

tl;dr everyone is busy working on their own thing and a coop mode is a massive undertaking.

 

here's the last one.

The closest thing you'll find is a member working on a new thief mod for doom 3 with coop

If you're interested in seeing this happen, you should offer him some help then find a way to port that work to TDM.

 

Personally, I'd also love to see coop happening in TDM if the level of teamwork is anything like portal 2.

However, I have doubts that will happen anytime soon.

IMO one of the first things someone should do is document what needs to be done, put up a to-do list on a wiki or tracker, and hopefully a bunch of articles or links to resources that people can read to understand how the system should work. That would help in recruiting people & generating interest in doing it.

What do you see when you turn out the light? I can't tell you but I know that it's mine.

Well, can you help me with the Thief 2 MP Mod? It always says connection timed out or my thief shows up with 2 screens side-by-side all pink and purple and crashes the game..

Ask in the TTLG thread for T2MP.

 

It's not compatible with New Dark. You use it on a normal install, and then you can do the Taffer-something patch on it. I forgot the exact name, but the patch people used before New Dark came out.

Last year I tried to start making it however my knowledge was not good enough to understand the engine enough. I will keep trying to the death though I just need to get organized and maybe have someone help me. There is a doom 3 coop mod that was made and I have been trying to find the source code for it which could make things way easier. Doomworld is back up now and I will ask around today after I finish work . This will be a thing someday whether I do it or somebody else does it ,don't worry. Eventually we can maybe even make it like thieveryut mod and get the old community from that game playing this. PS: if anyone wants to play thievery in the mean time I'm trying to revive it and relive some of the old magic. Hopefully that will add even more fuel to this community because more people will want dark mod coop!

      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!
