@LS - thats because mappers are learning new tricks to help perf.

Never underestimate the power of the skybox!
-
Yeah I've seen some really nice and convincing skyboxes in TDM. Of note is the one on Chalice of Kings.

A new Doctor! Fezzes are cool!

I never got into Doctor Who. My best friend loves it. I have to wait for the crap to finish every Saturday night before we can go out.
-
OTOH Red Dwarf is absolutely awesome. I have every series on DVD. Got a bit weak towards the end but when they were firing on all cylinders it was magic.
-
Most people I know have never heard of it because it wasn't aired in germany. And it's really hard explaining it without sounding totally silly. Which it is but I love it.
-
Another silly sign: A restaurant near us has a sign that tells you when they're open. Unfortunately, it's an electric sign and when the restaurant's closed, the sign is turned off. So if you pull up off-hours to see when you can go there to eat, the sign is off and you can't read it.
-
Doesn't that get the essential message across? If the sign says they're open, they're open. If not, they're not.
-
It was open. You just forgot your brick.
-
Oh yeah. That's when your wife asks you to leave the warmth and comfort of the car to get up close to the sign. Typically in a bad neighborhood endangering both your health and safety...

Beautiful, haunting, chilling. The Penny Dreadful soundtrack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_glH_uSppk

Yeah its a shame the first season only lasted for a few episodes.
-
Production cost has to be very high for that show. Hope it lasts.
-
Me too! Your post reminded me that I hadn't gotten around to watching the show. I have literally been pausing the episodes every few minutes so I could get screenshots of the sets!

Get well soon!

Yes, be well John Spartan!

OMG that sounds bad. Hope you will get better.

Cool. Debugging TDM problems while listening to 20yo DOOM music.

Not Even Doom Music can make working with patches less awful.
-
If Doom music is not enough, you can amp it up with Brutal Doom music:
-
Brutal Doom music *is* awesome, but NEDM is a meme, basically "even the coolest thing ever can't make what I'm doing right now less sucky".

hahaha oh Grayman I know that headspace, during my DR career i've luckily not had objective problems but damn have I had custom modeling issues out the wazoo
-
Haha! That's why at work I try to avoid putting coders in an open-plan office. Sketch out your plan on a piece of paper first and cross out stuff you've done is my only advice. It helps when trying to pick up the thread.
-
Haha! I am familiar with this cyclical interruption thing.
Just don't move any of the objectives when you're done...

From the Master Foundry's review of "Thief" (http://themasterfoundry.com/thief-revew/): "I’ve played better fan missions than Thief, I’ve played better Thief games than Thief, I’ve even played better Thief-inspired games than Thief. The Dark Mod alone is miles ahead of almost anything you’ll find here, and it’s completely free. So please make sure to give that a try before even considering giving Eidos Montreal your hard-earned money."

Once sentence that was spot on - "Eidos Montreal tries to play it safe by pleasing all, but ends up blackjacking itself in the face with a release that ultimately impresses no one. "
-
Great bit of recognition. Thanks for sharing

That's good to know; thanks for sharing.

Got an AI to use an elevator instead of the stairs. Now I have to stop him from walking into a wall after he steps off the elevator and reaches his goal path_corner.

For turkeys this is more like Memorial Day. (Seth Meyers joke)
Happy Thanksgiving!

We dont in the UK, but I did have some home made sheapards pie this evening yum.

Shepards pie is dyn-o-mite!

Hosed my darkmod tree while trying to revert backward for bug fixing. Looks like Tortoise SVN has some issues in that respect. Downloading the whole thing from scratch, so today is shot.

Any damages? Hope not!

None. Some leaves and pine straw on the ground.

I just taught a pair of rats to follow a Revenant on his patrol. Looks like the pied piper at work.

That sounds less dramatic now

If you're on Facebook, you might find the world of "Creepy Things" inspirational. https://www.facebook.com/creepythings1/

In related news, a shadowy figure was spotted lurking outside the church. https://www.wral.com/investigation-into-weeping-virgin-mary-statue-continues/17702476/ The City Watch is investigating.

"Could the statue of St. Lucia be remade entirely out of cyberdongs?"
-
That is blasphemy! Mecha-Mary sheds WD-40, not olive oil!
-
Olive oil is good for cleaning bronzes, maybe some was left over after such a clean.

In TDM, I pile fences, crates, whatever on top of walls to keep the player from mantling upward. In RL, I pile pillows on the bed to keep our new dachshund from leaping from the floor to the bed.

Just hang a health potion around his neck so if he takes fall damage he'll have a way to resolve it. He'll also look like an odd St. Bernard.

For some reason I read the first line as "I pile feces". That would keep me off the wall.

Interesting discussion on HUD design. http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2013/07/who-needs-a-hud-metro-last-light-and-the-return-to-realism/

I sometimes like to play without the lightgem. It's another element of challenge. You have to pay attention to where you're walking, though I still think it's right that it's in the vanilla setup.
-
One way to get rid of hud is binding with body awareness: when you take bow, you can see arrows sticking out of quiver at bottom of screen. If you want to see stocked items, you take a look at your chest and pockets under coat, or open sack. Also left hand is not so busy, so you could have light gem as watch on wrist(compass, etc) -left hand could be switched on and off just like right hand with sword.
-
Was not aware of that but excellent! I'm going to try that this weekend to up the challenge.
