  2. New shadow leaks in 2.12 dev builds

    in The Dark Mod

    Posted

    No worries.

    If you wanna try, it's not too difficult, especially with the v2 "presets".

    The tricky part is ensuring the location entity is inside the middle of an area and that location separators enclose the area.

    I've actually done this by editing the map file in a text editor and making the entities match locations of other entities like door handles for the separators and vases (etc) for the location. It's easier to do in DR if you are a DR veteran of course.

  5. 2.10 Crashes - May be bow \ frontend acceleration related

    in TDM Tech Support

    Hmm...

    I might have a case that does not involve the penile animation issue...

    2.12 Beta - The Transaction
     

    Spoiler

    If you immediately head to the shop where the book buyer is located ( right alley, then forward, then first door on the right )

    and trigger the in-game cinematic. After the cinematic plays if you shoot the Revenant with a fire arrow then walk towards it TDM will crash.

    Sadly, I have yet to reproduce this while running in debug with symbols. Solid as a rock when debugging.

    Something's wrong with the wiki.  Going to anywhere but the home page returns something like this: 

    MediaWiki internal error.

Original exception: [521710f625297c8cef7aa5f4] 2023-12-19 13:47:30: Fatal exception of type "IntlException"

Exception caught inside exception handler.

Set $wgShowExceptionDetails = true; at the bottom of LocalSettings.php to show detailed debugging information.

    Confirmed...

    Here's mine.  I'm also on Windows 11 (RTX 3060Ti).

    I think it happens on pretty much all missions.  It happens on my WIP and I tried out a couple of older ones (Perilous Refuge and Penny Dreadful 3).

    Try enabling Bloom in the Advanced Video settings.

    I can only reproduce this with Bloom Disabled.

    Thief Gold Campaign: The Black Parade

    in Fan Missions

    Posted

    Our friend Skacky ( and his team "Feuillade Industries" ) has released a full sized Thief expansion \ campaign "The Black Parade":

    https://www.moddb.com/mods/thief-the-black-parade

    t is finally here! After 7-ish years of development, The Black Parade is finally released. So, what awaits you in this campaign?

    - 10 huge, open-ended and meticulously crafted missions with varied themes packed with content.
    - A brand new protagonist thrown into a dark, intricately woven story of crime and conspiracies.
    - 4 new tools happily supplied by the undermarket, at a price.
    - Many tweaks to the AI to make the game a bit more challenging but still fair.
    - A brand new "banter" system where AIs greet each other during their rounds and nightly life.
    - 28 voiced characters totaling roughly 1,800 new lines of dialogue.
    - 30 minutes of gorgeous hand-drawn briefings and cutscenes.
    - Brand new AI motions making the denizens of The City look more alive.
    - Full English subtitles.

    In The Black Parade you play the character of Hume, a hardened criminal who was sent into exile as a punishment for his crimes. The year is 833, you are now back in The City, a sprawling metropolis of soot-caked brick, greasy fumes and noisy machinery, with many a sinister conspiracy whispered behind closed doors. Lost and without a penny to your name, you are back to your life of thievery and must find your old associate Dahlquist. Shadows and silence are your allies. Light is your enemy. Stealth and cunning are your tools. And the riches of others are yours for the taking.

    The Black Parade aims at being a love letter to Thief: The Dark Project, and we hope we succeeded! It is recommended to have played through Thief: The Dark Project and/or Thief 2: The Metal Age at least once beforehand, since these missions are overall tougher than the base game.

    The Black Parade also comes with a few tweaks to the classic Thief gameplay formula:

    - Hume is not a Keeper and thus never received Garrett’s training: AIs will now notice you if they bump into you or vice versa, sometimes even in a perfect shadow. Be careful!
    - Hume can move banners aside instead of having to slash them.
    - Hume has additional footstep sounds for chains and pipes; these are metal sounds that aren’t as noisy as regular metal (about as noisy as stone/wood).
    - Water arrows can now be used to expand moss patches.
    - Servants will re-light extinguished torches on higher difficulty levels.
    - Servants may clean moss on the floor if they notice it on higher difficulty levels.
    - Zombies now smash wooden doors open instead of simply opening them.
    - Electric lanterns carried by guards can be turned off.
    - A few guards in the campaign are outfitted with heavy armor and helms so they cannot be knocked out using the Blackjack.
    - Hume can pick up small creature corpses such as spiders or sweels.

    Here is a very handy guide by nicked on how to set up Thief Gold for Fan Missions.

    !!!IMPORTANT NOTES!!!
    The Black Parade requires NewDark 1.26 or above! Make sure you use the latest version of TFix/TFix Lite before playing!
    The Black Parade should be launched with FMSel, NewDarkLoader or AngelLoader. It is not recommended to launch this campaign with DarkLoader or GarrettLoader. Note that mods such as Thief Gold HD Mod, NecroAge or Enhancement Pack are not compatible with this campaign. Remember that this is a campaign for THIEF GOLD, not Thief 2!

    Known issues:
    - Due to the complexity of the missions, there can be cases where some NPCs might get stuck walking against walls. There is unfortunately not much that can be done about this.

    I'm afraid the light leaks persist even in dev16854-10518 with a change I understand should fix them on old maps. Just replaying Chronicles of Skulduggery 3: Sacricide and found an area where they're even worse and a light in another room shines straight through the wall.

    A view from the back of the light shining through: Even from this angle you can see it light up the room through the door.

    The impacted missions have not been edited yet. If you wish to assist further, set con_noPrint 0 and getviewpos 1 then capture screens and post them to the authors mission thread.
