Springheel's 4 Hour Challenge!

I played your level yesterday and really enjoyed it. It was both challenging and interesting. Especially getting that loot from the warehouse on expert.

 

I did find one little issue you probably won't bother with. As you enter and before you pass through the narrow part of the warehouse, on the left side

there is a pile of packages with two mediums resting on each other. When you climb on those the top falls into the bottom.

 

Was a very enjoyable mission, but a lot more enjoyable watching it be made.

 

Thanks

Why would you do that? I was perfectly able to move them myself if I wanted to. Now my two posts on the subject makes no sense. :rolleyes:

Oldjim did find and report that. I thought I fixed it, but realized afterwards that there were two copies of that prefab in the map, and I only fixed one.

Having played it this afternoon - I've picked your mission to break next, Springheel and, after encoding and upload will include it in the "I like missions like this..." thread, along with short, encouraging/suggestion discussion regarding speed-build as a start and not as final for x reasons (even found a few new glitches and have displayed some exploits that I use [perhaps this is not a good idea, as usually they are patched or require creation of world object to replace for function]).

Even completed it on expert (although only on challenging AI behaviour), but had to save once as it was so freaking difficult at this level.

All those packages tend to do this if messed with in the version I downloaded yesterday. But perhaps I interact with them in a different manner to others.

 

I must say - the AI pathing differences between easy/med/expert diffs. is probably the best I have ever found in TDM FM's - it made the game very interesting and it is something that I hope I see more of in future.

Many surprises and unpredicted encounters.

It took dozens of attempts to complete it on expert: A Matter of Hours (of frustration).

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      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 ?
