Signs you might be an NPC
Alberto Salvia Novella replied to Alberto Salvia Novella's topic in Off-Topic
Oh, is it "Patently Dangerous"? -
Yes, that's intentional. The warnings don't mean anything, that's just a quirk of the materials applied to them. You may also notice they are slightly transparent near glass materials, which is another strange aspect of them that I decided to keep for aesthetic reasons. This is not intentional, no. This is actually the first time I'm seeing this, but I can confirm that it appears messed up in DR. It appeared normally to testers and doesn't show up in any of the Let's Plays of my FM except for the latest one about a month ago, so I'll have to investigate if an update of some sort may have caused this. Thanks for letting me know! Thanks for playing my first FM, I hope you enjoyed it!

Prices are so frustrating right now. I was hoping for a miracle with Memorial Day Sales yet nothing.
-
Funny. I scripted an FM once about an author abandoning an FM, and the NPCs are just left there to fend for themselves and find meaning in their existence.
-
Just checking a couple of things: And is this stove messed up on purpose? Looks like the whole thing should be shifted to the left a bit and the pot is stuck in the pipe...
-
This was super, really enjoyed it. Although I somehow missed about 1500 loot and 2 of the secrets. I can't quite put my finger on it but there is something old-school TDM about it that gave me a really nostalgic feeling. Great example of a small and focused FM and hope to see more from you!

Yeah, I should grab a 2 TB SATA 2.5" SSD for my OptiPlex but I think I missed the price dip (when they were like $50-60). Should have cheaped out and grabbed a Team Group.

Fan Mission: The Spider and the Finch, by grodenglaive
Frost_Salamander replied to grodenglaive's topic in Fan Missions
Just finished this. As others have already said, it's a pretty good first mission indeed and I also really liked the start area. Looking forward to your next one! I did have similar issues to others about the ending though: -
I noticed something during the Stone 24 work. There is an opportunity to add 2 new characters to the custom TDM codepage. I've identified some reasonable candidates... Paired upper/lower case: Ğ/ğ, with breve (cup) Ľ/ľ, with abbreviated caron shown as stroke or apostrophe İ/ı, namely I with dot above / i without dot and individual candidates: ẞ, the relatively new capital form of German "sharp S" ¡, the Spanish inverted exclamation mark đ, the Barred d EDIT: No, this is already defined at 0x90 I'd like to hear feedback about what characters to use. @Petike the Taffer, your experience with 2019 translations is particularly germane. Details about these candidates, and how the change might be rolled out, follow.

@Frost_Salamander I did a second run through a few days ago v1 to see if I would have the lever/case frob issue again and I did. But I also had a second issue which I was going to tell you about but then we had a freak windstorm Saturday night that knocked out our electricity and it was just restored an hour ago. I figured it was a freak thing, but maybe that's what happened to irisx also.

Find v1.2 attached to this post: Capitalization of names consisting of multiple words, which kind of looks better Other minor changes Remember you need the Core Essentials for the mod to work. z_nameless_objects_mod_v1.2.pk4

got it in black friday deal about half price and i was looking for a mechanic keyboard with good reviews so nobrainer on my part. the wireless mode i actually dont use at all i just tested it to see if it was ok and it does work but with some lag if i move it even 1m from the reciever. plugged in it works really well though . might get me one of the full size keychrons for the developer machine as the keyboard while working fine is an extremely old but sturdy (ps2 model) .
-
Nice, I'm a big fan, have the Keychron Q6 and V6 (full size). The new pro and max versions of the keyboards use wireless dongles or bluetooth if you want. I never did understand the point of wireless keyboards that just stay at a desk though, just plug it in.

Hey @nbohr1morehow come the zombies in The Dark Mod don't have a "resurrection" mechanic to it, similar to how Thief has it?· 2 replies
They're quite a weak creature as of right now, it's merely a walking corpse that slashes you, making attacking them to kill them an actual strategy.
Would be better if they had some cool mechanism to it that truly makes them a danger, such as the resurrection idea itself.

Query: when was the last time a zombie in a video game was unnerving or scary to you? I'm chipping away at my anniversary submission and I've been trying to gather opinions on the subject. I'm perfectly capable of lighting them well, changing their sfx, and creating effective ambience, but I'm worried that zombies at their core are just too overdone to be an effective payoff to the tension I'm creating.· 4 replies

I tried to upscale the TDM logo video. First try:· 1 reply
briefing_video.mp4 You can test it ingame by making a copy of the core tdm_gui.mtr and place it in your-tdm-root/materials/ , then edit line 249 of that file into the location where you placed the new briefing.mp4 file.
What I did was I extracted all the image files, then used Upscayl to upscale the images using General photo (Real-Esrgan) upscale setting and then turn it back into a video.
I might have to crop it a bit, the logo looks smaller on screen (or maybe it's actually better this way?). My video editor turned it into a 16:9 video, which I think overal looks better than 1:1 video of original.
