Thanks, don't know how I missed that!
-
Well, didn't get far so far. I'm stuck...
-
Congrats and thanks, I'm just ready to start a new mission.
-
Thank you for this gem, Kingsal. Played it on Easy and thoroughly enjoyed it, just wish it was longer! A beautifully designed mission with a pleasing atmosphere, reminiscent of the buried city of Karath-din in the Thief series. I'm sure to replay it on Expert eventually.
-
Thanks for that, Bluehawk.... As for bugs, I've been experiencing a strange one in this mission - hitting ESC to save or reload, and finding instead that it triggers my player's death (happened three times so far).
-
I really enjoyed the atmosphere of this one at first, but...
-
An enjoyable outing. The map has an impressive sense of space and complexity of structure for such a small MB package, and the bridge and port setting are very atmospheric. The mission itself is pleasing enough but over all too quickly.
-
Thanks for this mission Jnon, it's a cosy little outing which I very much enjoyed. Reminded me of the classic Thief series.

Fan Mission: Seeking Lady Leicester, by Grayman (3/21/2023)
Dead Rat replied to Amadeus's topic in Fan Missions
Many thanks to Grayman and his heirs for this pleasingly atmospheric outing, much enjoyed. The transfigured world was a little confusing but I managed to finish and return (although I may have missed a secret corner or two). -
Did go back and finish it eventually, headache or no headache. It's a very enjoyable mission, thanks Jack.
-
Was enjoying this one but I had to abandon it due to that harsh metallic hum which was giving me a headache and becoming unbearable. Seems to be associated with certain lights, but I couldn't track it down and turn it down in editSounds, which doesn't seem to work in this mission.

Dead Rat replied to Frost_Salamander's topic in Fan Missions
Played this on Hard and thoroughly enjoyed it. Fine work Frost_Salamander and Kerry000! Looking forward to Part 2. -
Fan Mission: Now and Then by joebarnin (2020/09/08)
Dead Rat replied to joebarnin's topic in Fan Missions
One of the first missions I've played after finally getting Dark Mod to work again on my machine (don't really know what went wrong but it's been out of action for a looong time). Thoroughly enjoyed it, thanks Joe. Some interesting twists and turns and all very photogenic. -
Fan Mission: Perilous Refuge by Dragofer (2019/09/10)
Dead Rat replied to Dragofer's topic in Fan Missions
I'm going to enjoy this one, thanks Dragofer. Haven't properly delved into it yet, I've just been wandering around the harbour soaking up the atmosphere. It really captures the feel of a small, decayed port at night. And it's good to see another fine Atkinson Grimshaw painting at the start. -
This is a problem with some missions and that one in particular. I fixed it by opening editSounds in the console, then getting very near one of the noisy lights (you may have to use noclip) until its name appears, left click action, then turn its volume right down to -10 or similar. Then click "save map" and return to the game.

Fan Mission: The Heart of Saint Mattis by joebarnin (2019/09/10)
Dead Rat replied to joebarnin's topic in Fan Missions
Ah, ta. I should be able to work it out from there. ? -
Fan Mission: The Heart of Saint Mattis by joebarnin (2019/09/10)
Dead Rat replied to joebarnin's topic in Fan Missions
Thanks Joe, it's an enjoyable mission. Nearly finished but I can't work out -
Ta for that freyk.

Apologies for the new thread as this subject is presumably covered in detail here but there are so many threads it's hard to find my way around. I have a useful repertoire of accents and pretty good dramatic skills, and have often considered getting involved on this side of things. I also quite often think of new incidental utterings for the guards and lords etc, to add a bit of variety to the stock vocals. I have a little recording studio here, with Cubase Artist and good quality microphones. If someone could provide links to what I have to do to produce usable audio files for Dark Mod, I might well find some time to get into it.
-
Enjoying this one, a very atmospheric setting with the seemingly endless marsh and giant castle creating quite a unique mood, while still evoking some of the flavour of classic Thief. It's a good long mission that builds a quietly sinister tension. My only criticism is: Anyway I haven't finished it yet, so I'd better get back down there.

OK, I've looked up cavador_8's walkthrough, and solved the problem. What confused me was:
-
The Black Arrow, I've read the thread and it's a complex issue. Bikerdude was a very helpful contributor who nonetheless had some particularly bad habits - extensive editing of other people's maps without their permission and with no warning of his intentions (sometimes requiring many hours of remedial work to undo his unwanted changes) plus copying chunks of other people's maps without permission, and failing to stop repeating this sort of behaviour after many complaints and warnings over a number of years. Apparently he agrees that he was at fault and accepts his banning as the most sensible move at this point. So, no need for ongoing conflict and bitterness on this matter.

Enjoying this one and personally I love the wide open spaces. But I would have liked to see more furniture in the mansion. I have a problem in the sewer:
