Fan Mission: Living Expenses by Sonosuke (2010/01/02)

Originally I wanted to write about the pros and cons of the mission, but Jon Irenicus already covered everything^^

 

Overall, I think the FM is a excellent example of how to create an enjoyable FM on a small sized map. A shame that you didn´t create more maps.

 

 

The only things that really bothered me were the loot goal and the "no knockout" objective. Usually I always play maps on difficult, but these things turned me away from it. In the end, I was only able to find about 1100 out of the 1900 loot, which was enough for medium difficulty. But these are only small things in an otherwise great FM.

Played this on medium difficulty. I usually don't like missions with forced ghosting and very minimal equipment, but I've really enjoyed this one. The general's hidden safe impressed me with its technical finesse, though it took me a while to figure out how it works.

 

The only major bug I've experienced in the mission was when the drunk bowman occassionally got up, walked towards the wall next to mess hall entrance, and kept on walking, making some rather hilarious animations.

 

All in all, a very good mission, Sonosuke. :)

      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      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported.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?
