  2. Fan Mission: Mandrasola by Sotha (2011/04/10)

    That is definitely not normal. Is this happening in any other FM'S? Something is interfering with your lightgem somewhere. Do you have any stray mods installed? Have you tried deleting the mission and downloading a fresh copy from the mission downloader?

     

    Also, I don't know if this is just the video making the level look dark...but could you open the D3 console ctrl alt ~ and check to make sure image_usenormalcompression is 2, image_usecompression is 1, and image_useallformats is 1.

    *Only in this FM as far as I know!

    *Mods: Tels Black Light (maybe is that?!?!?)

    *Video made with NEW version of FM, same problem in old one!

     

    From config file:

     

    seta image_usePrecompressedTextures "1"

    seta image_useNormalCompression "2"

    seta image_useAllFormats "1"

    seta image_useCompression "1"

  6. TDM v1.05 bug thread

    in TDM Tech Support

    Posted · Edited by lowenz

    Encountered a bug in Mandrasola, but I think it's TDM 1.05-related.

     

    Sometimes the gem lights up forever, no matter what kind of light sources are (or not) near.

    And when this happens, the screenshots taken are completely black!

    Most splendid.

    I got only 14/15 though, I wonder where the last one is ...

    Death got me at the caves, so I'm not as skilled as I thought I am:

     

     

    Those beasts are nicely dangerous - fast and strong. I loved the sniffing on lower alert levels !

    The pagan mage was a little to tough maybe - he could see me right away and his missiles are deadly enough.

    I had to opt for instant preventive gas arrow treatment which downed him with a very satisfied noise.

     

     

     

    I missed a more intense climate - howling ice winds, dense snowfall, or dense winter fog. Not so much for reasons of making the season

    clear, but if an opportunity to implement those in a way that they are limiting seeing and hearing distance comes up like here I feel it shouldn't be left out.

    Shadowing the lady through fog or dense snowfall could have added up much to atmosphere I think.

     

    Well,this mission surprised me with an enjoyable Sunday evening, thank you very much.

    Same thoughts for me, 14/15 too :D

     

    A bug!

    Exiting from here:

     

     

    shot00002qu.th.jpg

     

    causes "rose" flashing on that black background.

     

    Isn't possibile to implement in DOOM3/TDM some kind of "fog", like old games one to hide the empty horizon?

    Weird. It looked just fine on my system. Also betatesters did not complain about it.

     

    It is not .tga file like they normally are, but a compressed .dds to save some disk space. Maybe DDS loading screens look corrupted on some systems? Are .dds loading screenies allowed?

     

    Does the mission work otherwise? Howsabout briefing pictures? They are .dds:s as well.

     

     

    Sorry.... :P

    Downloading!

  12. Would more gameplay videos help?

    in The Dark Mod

    Posted · Edited by lowenz

    Whenever I check out a game, I always look for gameplay videos and not just fancy trailers too. I think more FM play-throughs would help the mod. Another problem is that even if you look for the dark mod on youtube, you'll only see a few videos, because lots of them are called TDM and won't return with "the dark mod".

    Look at right :D

     

    I'll rename all videos, no problem!

     

    EDIT: renamed ;)

    2 clipping problems:

     

    #the first is a Vp that isnt sealing

    #how did you even get up there..?

    #not my doing, this is a TDM issue.

     

    Clipping problems:

     

    #that will be because I have most lickly set said FS to noclipmodel for perf reasons etc.

    The others:

     

    #it never happened to be but the fix would be to stop the player getting up there.

    #hud problem nothing to do with me, but its very minor

    Questions:

     

    #did you read the priest's note on his desk..?

     

    Guard:

     

    #again, not my doing, there is an issue with Ai in TDM 1.04.

     

    So after all that, did you enjoy the mission..? and have you voted..

    Off course I enjoyed!

    Bugs aren't your fault, I simply point them no matter the cause :P
