@sulliumin my experience weapons are not like other inventory items in that the entity which goes into your inventory is spawned and is not actually the specific entity you picked up, so you cannot rely on a named entity once they are in the players inventory. I had this problem with the sword anyway when I tried to make a similar objective for picking it up. I ended up making the objective controlled by a script, added a frob response to the sword with the frob/response editor which fires a script when the weapon is frobbed (ie picked up), and then wrote a short map script that just set the right objective state to complete.

Give the arrow a frob response which fires an objective completion script/trigger. If you do not know how to do that, let me know.

Darkmod underutilizes, in my opinion, capabilities for procedural animation. We already do some, like the random head and torso turns that are added on top of existing animations. There's also possibility for separate animation for top and bottom of the character as well as head. There's a missing opportunity for varied facial expressions. I talked about animation blending in this thread. Here's something that for example Thief: Deadly Shadows did. It's swaying side to side while turning. I used Gemini to add code to the tdm_ai_base.script. I don't know if this is the most efficient way of doing it, probably not. Here are the parts added: Gemini came up with the term "banking" which is used in car racing. I don't know if that's what it's called in animation or games. There's a lot of variables that can be tweaked. You can rotate this way any bone you wish. I use 'Origin', 'Spine_Dummy' and 'Neck' bones: You can tweak amount of rotation for each bone. setJointAngle(m_bankingJointHandle, 1, jointRotation * 1); setJointAngle(m_bankingJointHandle1, 1, jointRotation * 0.6); setJointAngle(m_bankingJointHandle2, 1, jointRotation * -1.5); There's also global intensity: (targetBanking = deltaYaw * 1.4;) and attenuation: m_bankingCurrentValue = (m_bankingCurrentValue * 0.95) + (targetBanking * 0.05); modifiers. Gemini also proposed to add an LOD system, which I thought was a great idea. So currently at a distance of 1500 from player the swaying will be disabled. Here are examples, each with slightly different values: And here's comically exaggerated one:

using 7zip as a container can work but from what i could read at the zdoom forums it comes with an overhead. memory requirements go up loading time goes up so the question is if it is worth it ?. the better compression is nice though. i been wondering if zstd would be a better bet ?. directstorage 1.4 adds zstd support so maybe ?.

Gemini managed to come up with a solution that's frame rate independent. However, I discovered a bug in Darkmod (unless it's a known issue). With vertical sync off, uncap FPS on and high max FPS values (around 100 and above), the character animations get restarted (walking, running) when AI makes a turn. It looks bad and causes NPCs to stop a lot, too: Beyond that, some additional checks were added, whether AI is dormant and for speed. It's possible to limit which AIs use this script by adding "can_bank" "1" argument in the def files. It would be better to make separate script files for different types of creatures. A horse especially could use a custom one. Those are just visual changes. They don't affect the behavior of AI. Right now NPCs don't slow down at all when they make a turn, which makes them look like trains on tracks. Click on images to watch the videos:

That is essentially the case - these "greeting" barks are not tied to actual detection or the fire off a lower alert level than is required to actually spook an ai. typically not a problem, as they are only intended to allow ai which are neutral or friendly to acknowledge eachother, but they do get suppressed when this relationship can and does change to hostile (which is what the observer script in this mission does) and I have never been able to find a way to address this in the scripting

Hello and good evening to everyone reading this. After calling up FM Displaced for the first time on an installation of TDM 2.12/64 that had been working for years, I got an error message, which I have attached as a text file. Can someone please tell me what it means and whether I can expect it to happen again after I uninstalled and reinstalled the game because I no longer had access to it? I have played FM about 30 times and never had a problem with performance. Thank you very much. Translated with DeepL.com (free version) fehler tdm.txt

I animated spine in the other direction. What I mean is that the head bone needs to be animated too, in order to compensate for the body tilt. tdm_ai_base.script

For the people eager to play with the latest state of development, two things are provided: regular dev builds source code SVN repository Development builds are created once per a few weeks from the current trunk. They can be obtained via tdm_installer. Just run the installer, check "Get Custom Version" on the first page, then select proper version in "dev" folder on the second page. Name of any dev version looks like devXXXXX-YYYY, where XXXXX and YYYY are SVN revision numbers from which the build was created. The topmost version in the list is usually the most recent one. Note: unless otherwise specified, savegames are incompatible between any two versions of TDM! Programmers can obtain source code from SVN repository. Trunk can be checked out from here: https://svn.thedarkmod.com/publicsvn/darkmod_src/trunk/ SVN root is: https://svn.thedarkmod.com/publicsvn/darkmod_src Build instructions are provided inside repository. Note that while you can build executable from the SVN repository, TDM installation of compatible version is required to run it. Official TDM releases are compatible with source code archives provided on the website, and also with corresponding release tags in SVN. A dev build is compatible with SVN trunk of revision YYYY, where YYYY is the second number in its version (as described above). If you only want to experiment with the latest trunk, using the latest dev build gives you the maximum chance of success. P.S. Needless to say, all of this comes with no support. Although we would be glad if you catch and report bugs before the next beta phase starts

I don't think we need to use spine. Rotation on the origin bone plus slight arms and head rotation is enough. Added a clamp on arms rotation. Attenuation is slightly faster. They return to straight pose a bit quicker. Should I make it stronger during walking? I guess because of the speed multiplier, they no longer sway while rotating in place, which I guess is ok. tdm_ai_base.script

Doom3 GPL contained most of the source of the script debugger that used to be part of Quake4. Harrie van Ginneken fixed it for dhewm3 by implementing the missing parts and we further improved it together (I maintain dhewm3). I ported that to TDM. It allows you to set breakpoints in script functions (by clicking to the left of the line number, where that red dot appears then), so when those lines are executed the game is paused and you can inspect variables in the debugger, or continue running the script line-wise (with those little buttons with the arrows at the top, or F11/F10/Shift-F11, see also the "Debug" menu. To continue running the game (until it hits the next breakpoint), click that ▶︎ button at the top. You can download a testbuild and read some more information at https://github.com/stgatilov/darkmod_src/pull/6 - it should work with the latest 2.14 Beta gamedata. Note that this is currently not officially part of The Dark Mod and I don't know when (or if) it will be merged. Might be after 2.14 if the changes are considered too risky or too much to review or whatever.

I mentioned that Thief 1 & 2 have a special animation that plays when player surprises the NPC. There was some work done in preparation for that mechanic in Darkmod. In tdm_ai_base.script file, there are lines referring to it: void Torso_Surprise(); void Legs_Surprise(); void ai_darkmod_base::Torso_Surprise() { PlayAnimationOnce(ANIMCHANNEL_TORSO, "surprise", 4, "Torso_Idle"); } void ai_darkmod_base::Legs_Surprise() { PlayAnimationOnce(ANIMCHANNEL_LEGS, "surprise", 4, "Legs_Idle"); When NPC spots the player they reset their animations for a split second before they start to search. I am under impression that they can see through walls. Do they see player's arm sticking out or something? AI vision set to "nearly blind": They can spot you when their had is turned around, even with AI vision set to "forgiving". I don't think NPCs communicate their state through barks well enough. They often don't say anything until they attack.

Mandrasola is a small sized map in which aspiring thief Thomas Porter steals some herbal products from a smuggler. The mission was created by me, Sotha and I wish to thank Bikerdude, BrokenArts and Ocn for playtesting and voice acting. Thanks goes naturally to everyone contributing and making TDM possible. This mission occurs chronologically before the Knighton's Manor, making it the first mission in the Thomas Porter series. Events in chronological order are: Mandrasola, The Knighton's Manor, The Beleaguered Fence, The Glenham Tower and The Transaction. The winter came early and suddenly this year. Weeks of strong blizzards and extremely harsh cold weather hit Bridgeport hard. With the seas completely frozen, a rare occurence indeed, most of the City harbor commerce has stopped completely. Vessels are stuck in the ice and no ship can leave or enter the City, resulting in the availability imported goods declining and their prices skyrocketing. One of these imported items is Mandrasola, a rare herbal product, which is imported overseas from the far southern continents. Mandrasola has its uses in alchemical cures and poisons, but mostly this substance is used for its narcotic qualities by commoners and even the nobility. The problem with Mandrasola is that excessive use is extremely addicting and the withdrawal effects are most grievious. Many are utterly incapable of stopping using Mandrasola and are transformed into quivering human ruins if they do no get their daily dose. And now this expensive and rare substance is running out from the whole City. Me and my fence, Lark Butternose, would love to grab this monopoly to ourselves: selling the last few doses in the City would probably be worth a fortune. According to Lark's sources, there remains only one smuggling lord who still has Mandrasola in stock. The problem is that this individual maintains an exclusive clandestine operation and only supplies a few nobles. Despite our best information gathering efforts we couldn't learn who the smuggler is and where he or she operates. Luckily we have an alternate plan. While searching for Mandrasola related information, we learned that a noblewoman called Lady Ludmilla is addicted to the substance and has paid high prices for small amounts of it. We also know that she has visited frequently someone in the Tanner's Ward waterfront, and since she goes to the area personally we believe she is visiting the smuggler. The plan is simple: I must monitor Ludmilla's most likely entryway to the Waterfront and then follow her to the smugglers hideout. I'd better be very careful around Ludmilla. She must not realise I'm following her or she probably won't lead me to her dealer. Hurting her is also out of the question. After she leads me to the smuggler's hideout, I can take my time to break in carefully and steal all the Mandrasola I can find. While I'm there it wouldn't be a bad idea to grab some loose valuables as well. I've now waited in the blistering cold for a few hours already. Looks like there are a few city watch patrols in the area to complicate matters... I think I heard a womans voice beyond the north gate. That must be lady Ludmilla, I haven't seen many ladies in these parts. I'd better get ready.. Links: Use the ingame downloader to get it. WARNING! Someone always fails to use spoiler tags. I do not recommend reading any further until you've played the mission.

A while back I tried to make a Python script plugin around this code: The idea was that it has a small gui, where you fill in the view position. I found it too difficult to create. Whenever I steer a little bit away from the code examples on the wiki, I immidiatelly get lost. Off course I don't really have proper Python knowledge.

If I forgot anything please let me know! God Speed. 2.10 Features Used:

I updated three animations: sit_2_sleep_on_chair sit_sleep_idle sleep_2_sit_on_chair There was some elbow twisting, but mostly I wanted to fix the neck: Files are now 413 KB in stead of 1.02 MB (unpacked), thanks to the new export script. I made changes to Blender rig so had redo a big chunk of the animations. By the way, it's funny how the guy immediately screams "raise the alarm" when getting hit with a water arrow to the face, before he even opens eyes. Only then he slowly wakes up. It should be "what was that" state first. Or there should be entirely new animation for that.

most builds nowadays use meson for glib based sources (GTK) or cmake + ninja (KDE or XFCE), but both can and do see uses for other non system libraries / tools. autotools are perl based and very very powerfull but unfortunatly the syntax is hard to grasp because it is so complex and is getting left more and more behind today (most linux devs hate it with a passion). in retrospect autotools is what was used to help build linux originally but maintaining it became a nightmare as things got more advanced so the devs looked to simpler build systems. there are however still cases where you are left with having to use it because it enables stuff that is next to impossible to achive with the other build systems. for one it allows far more advanced operations than either meson nor cmake can handle. there are also ide based build systems though most linux devs dont use them often if versed in the above due to it being to restrictive compared to a script based system where anything can be automated. but for simple development you can use both codeblocks codelite anjuta kdevelop and a whole slew of other ide's. hell you can even use msvc in linux

Ok, one last time improved turn 90 animations. New export script makes testing easier. turn_90_anims.zip

EDIT: Here's a script that exports smaller md5anim files and doesn't require baking: I tested this addon for importing and exporting md5.mesh and md5.anim in Blender: https://github.com/KozGit/Blender-2.8-MD5-import-export-addon It works with Blender 3.6.15 which is the latest version in the 3.0 series. It doesn't work with Blender 4.2. It seems that the culprit is the change in the 4.0 series from bone layers to bone collections. Here's an updated .blend file with male NPC animations. .blend file with a female model Like before: use armature_control to animate the model when you're done, select the tdm_ai_proguard armature object and Bake Action to Pose; select Visual Keying for the exporter to work you need to select both the tdm_ai_proguard and a mesh object that's being animated, e.g. proguard_armor

It has always bothered me that Blender md5anim exporters write a lot of unnecessary data by storing every value for every bone. Here's an example of a typical frame exported from Blender: And here's a frame exported from some other software: Since skeletons are hierarchical, rotations can be inherited instead, making the files 3x smaller. I asked Google's Gemini to rewrite the script. Simply select the armature and export. No need for baking any more. The code will automatically take into account all visible meshes assigned to the armature to write the "bounds". At least that's what I asked for - seems to work. Bounds is just a box for each frame. Supposedly used for optimisation. Made for Blender 3.6, since that's the latest version that newest md5 addons work with. I'm not sure what effect does this have on performance, it would be interesting to test it. Older animations could be reexported. md5anim_optimised_export_blender36.py

The TDM Unofficial Patch is a personal project of mine to modify some small details that annoyed me in the core game. It wouldn't be possible without many others, so thanks to the whole TDM community for discussions and help, but especially to friendly modders who directly contributed code for it, like Obsttorte, Dragofer, Kingsal, Goldwell, Destined, and snatcher!

Welcome to the Snatcher's Workshop. Come on in, we may have something for you today. Feel free to look around. We trade everything here. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- We realize new ideas and take existing ideas for a spin. For fun. Somewhere in this post you will find a download with mods. Good care was put to make all mods as little intrusive as possible to make them compatible with as many missions as possible. This set of mods will never break your game but some features won't be available in a handful of missions (the reasons are known). Feel free to report here what works and what doesn't. TDM Modpack 5.1 Compatible with The Dark Mod 2.13 or later (2.14 or later recommended) A lightweight, stable, non-intrusive, mission-friendly Modpack for The Dark Mod that includes many enhancements and a new set of tools and abilities for our protagonist: peek through doors, blow and ignite candles, whistle to distract enemies, mark your location, an invisibility-speed combo and more. Mods included in the pack do not alter your game or any of the missions in any relevant way. The pack includes enhancements to the core game and additions that can be used in missions but at the same time respects the vision of the mission creators. It is up to you to make use of any of the new tools and abilities or not. Please note that sometimes authors include in their missions their own versions of core files and as a result, some mods are not available in some missions. All missions will play fine regardless.

Select the item in the inventory and "Use" it repeatedly to cycle through the different arrow types. Topic: Alchemy to alter arrow properties?

Yellow font color for story subs for best contrast, light grey font color for anything else. Non-story subs limited to a single instance, so that players aren't bothered too much with non-relevant subs (barks). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- DOWNLOADS / INSTALL / UNINSTALL So, how do I install and play with all this? Quite easy, but pay attention. I don't want you to break your game so we will be using a "Mod Enabler". A Mod Enabler allows you to enable and disable mods at will, with a few clicks. Before moving forward you must know a couple of things: The moment you enable a mod, previous saves will not work. If you want to load previous saves then you will have to disable the mod. If you play a mission with mods, the saves will only work when that exact set of mods are enabled. This above is important in case you deem your current saves precious. Consider yourself informed. DOWNLOADS You can download the TDM Modpack from Mod DB: INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS Download the zip, unzip it, and move contents to your TDM root folder: Folder "MODS" File "JSGME.exe" Go to your TDM root folder and double click on JSGME.exe (yellow icon). The first time you launch JSGME, it will ask for the "Mods Folder Name". Leave "MODS" and click OK. Now to your left you will find a list of mods available. To your right you will find a list of mods currently enabled. To enable a mod, select a mod on the left, and click on the arrow pointing to the right. To disable a mod, select a mod on the right, and click on the arrow pointing to the left. Go and enable the mods you want: UNINSTALL INSTRUCTIONS Quit the game (to unblock files) Go to your TDM root folder and double click on JSGME.ese (yellow icon) Disable all mods found on the right Close JSGME Delete the following: Folder "MODS" File "JSGME.exe" File "JSGME.ini" --------------------------------------------------------------------------- I hope you enjoy the mods. No coin? then leave a like for pirate's sake!

I am attempting to enable native support for an 8BitDo Ultimate 2C controller in The Dark Mod 2.14 on Arch Linux. While the controller functions perfectly through Proton/Wine, the native Linux binary (which uses GLFW) fails to recognize it as a Gamepad, and my diagnostics via the official GLFW joystick utility confirm that the device is detected as a raw joystick but lacks a valid gamepad mapping. However, the SDL_GameControllerDB does have the mappings. So, I patched and compiled glfw to the latest db. Then, I built TDM from the github repo, with the prebuilt 3rdparty artifacts, but replacing the libglfw3.a file with the cone I compiled. The game runs, and I verified that the mappings do exist in the new tdm binary (using `strings`), but the gamepad still does not work.
