Thanks for organizing this all guys!

Moving forward I will be releasing subtitles with all of my missions. As for existing missions, if people want to add them that's fine with me. I'd prefer to verify it's accurate of course first but yeah.

Yeah that's no worries! My apologies, I must have read the message and forgotten to respond.

Damn this looks absolutely incredible! Have you tested this with the stormy clouds yet? would be curious to see if it has the same effect on the stormclouds skybox.

This shot is by far my favorite out of all your FM screenshots so far. It's just so comfy looking and it invites me into explore this world.

Congratulations Kingsal, this mission is absolutely incredible!

I experimented with using AI voices as a placeholder before I asked human actors to do the lines. There are still morality and copyright questions regarding AI voice usage, but that aside, I just find the technology isn't there yet. Here is a comparison from a Builder sermon scene I have in Shadows of Northdale Act 3. This is an AI voice I used for the scene originally as a placeholder AI voice.mp3 And this was the final human voice acted version human voice.mp3 In my opinion the human version is infinitely better than the AI generated one. The human voice sounds much more natural, plus there are nuances and inflections the voice actor can bring to the script which can change it in ways that an AI voice can't. Additionally, some voice actors i've worked with will go off script or offer alternative versions, some of which end up being used (a couple of improv lines that AndrosTheOxen used for the shopkeeper in Noble Affairs we're featured in the final game).

Congrats on the release, this was a short but sweet mission. I really enjoyed playing through it.

Only the intro area is. The rest of the mission is at night.

This is the opening scene in Shadows of Northdale Act 3. Sometimes I like to take a break after finishing a scene and just take it in. This scene was inspired by the calm and comfy feeling I felt when I first played @Moonbo's A House of Locked Secrets mission, in particular that first scene with the beautiful scenery and calming ambient. Right before diving into one of the best Dark Mod missions. Good times!

I scrapped the earlier version I had and restarted the mission. I am aiming to release Act 3 between fall 24 to spring 25. I know it's been a super long wait, but campaigns are hard!

My release schedule and mission layout changes quite a lot as I figure out where the pieces of my mapping puzzle lands. And damn campaigns are hard! So to provide a small update, I am aiming to release Shadows of Northdale Act 3 between fall 24 and spring 25. I'm working on it right now, and very happy with a layout/flow I currently have. After Act 3 is out... who knows what the future holds

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! Bingo
