Graphics glitch and arrows passing through bodies
Frost_Salamander replied to Eirinjas's topic in TDM Tech Support
I too have an RTX 3060 Ti, but don't have these issues. Maybe share the rest of your configuration and it might make it easier to narrow the issue down? What OS is it, what's the rest of the hardware config, etc... -
I did enjoy it! But I..

Basically what happened is this: with the new layout of the jewellery shop in v2 I adjusted Jerry's path nodes slightly this causes him to bump into the chair at the desk where the key is when the chair moves, it sends the key flying. It could end up on of the floor or God-knows where else - it probably can clip through the floor as well or disappear completely So as a fix I: made the chair non-moveable and monster-clipped around it so Jerry won't get as close to the key made the key non-pushable (so it doesn't go flying when AI get near it) There is something strange about that key - most moveables don't behave like that and don't require any adjustment to account for strange physics. EDIT: to be clear, the fix will be in v3 which I will publish later today.

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!

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: -
Version 2 now available for download. The main fixes are these pesky frob issues. I wasn't able to determine the cause, but assuming it was something to do with the scripts, I've rearranged things a little bit so they are no longer needed. Also I would normally wait a while longer before releasing a fix, but this issue seems to have affected a few people. Apologies again, it never came up in beta for whatever reason. @nbohr1more could you please add to the mission database?

Here are some guidelines I sort of use: err on the small side rather than large. A common complaint in maps from new mappers is too much open space, rooms too large, etc. Smaller rooms also provide a more medieval feel. If you make a room you need to fill it with stuff to avoid the above - so the smaller the better keep room for AI to move - minimum of 36 units to pass between objects Place an AI and/or furniture in the room first thing as a reference point Also need to make sure there is room for AI to open/close doors. Test the AI in your room as early as possible work in multiples of 8 - so hall width of 64/96/128 and room height of 128, etc. And then just pick whichever one suits your scene the best.

So regarding the frobbing issues. The thing in common with the two areas is a location script executes when entering/leaving the area which sets the frobability of the items. This is to prevent them being frobbed from outside their location, through walls, etc. I've used this technique in my last 3 FMs without any problems. I'm wondering if these aren't executing for some people? Also: So for people having the issue - at your convenience could you try starting a new game and noclipping to the problem areas to see if the issue still happens? The location scripts should still execute while in noclip mode.
