Ah, ok, I don't found it before, searching with the old Title "Yan's test.pk4". I think it won't be a bad idea to use it at keast as base of a mision, maybe changing somewhat the map if there are copyright problems because of the Quake map. Quite old and still not released in the oficial TDM List, I thought that it was an abandoned (test) Mision.

Yan's test are not in the mission list in the Wiki you mencioned, as I can remember I downloaded it from ModDB (not longer there). I mencioned it, because I thought that is only a Test Mision, as is not publicable, maybe because of the Copyright of the Quake4 map. But I also thought that, despite to this, with some mapchanges can be a nice little mision. But sorry, I'm silent now.

In the past I had the Myst serie, apart of a extraordinary Adventure puzzle game, the images and artwork are overhelming and invite a take screenshots to use it as Wallpaper Bundle for "pay what you want" in https://www.epicbundle.com/humble-myst-more-steam-game-bundle/

Some time ago I downloaded an old mission, called Yan's Test. By the name and content I think it was an intent to use a Quake Arena Map in a Mission. The mission is full playable without big bugs, but naturally requires some improvements, not so bad at all. It's made by Yan Ostresov and Bikerdude

I think it will be the same as with ready made assets and textures, the only diference is that are you which create it with the help of AI, describe the texture or asset you need and the AI creates it. Anyway you can take a look to other tools you may need among over 3000 existing AI tools. There is life outside of GPT 4 https://www.futurepedia.io/?pricing=Free

I think there are also some nice AI apps which maybe usefull for TDM, like these to create 3D game assets and textures for free. https://www.meshy.ai https://pixela.ai https://www.polyhive.ai among others

I like it, a round lasts between 5-10 minutes, ideal to play 1-2 rounds on the bus or in a waiting room with your mobile.

Nice, it remember me to an old Card game from 2001, you can still download it from the Google Play Store or download the zip file with the EXE file for Windows from Archive.org (standalone, ~1Mb), its free, no ads, nice, good for a little while in between Zip file content https://archive.org/details/Ants_Mravenci https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.qetrix.mravenci&hl=en_US&pli=1

If you think that funny posts about misfortunes are exclusive to current social networks, as now with the case of the damaged submarine, you are wrong. Here is a compilation of the comments on the sinking of the Titanic in 1912 in the various newspapers of the time. https://nitter.nl/yesterdaysprint/status/1382501127111933954#m

Of course, it is one of the reasons for the decline of online forums, since the advent of mobile phones. Forums on a mobile are a pain in the ass, but on the other hand, for certain things there are no real alternatives to forums, social networks cannot be with their sequential threads, where it is almost impossible to retrieve answers to a question that is asked. has done days ago. For devs for internal communication, the only thing offered is a collaborative app, such as System D (not to be confused with systemd). FOSS, free and anonymous registration, access further members only by invitation, full encrypted and private. https://www.system-d.org

I think that a Social Network, like Discord, or much better Mastodon, Lemmy or another from the Fediverse is fine to promote TDM or chat with the user, but not for game related or developement issues, for the reason which @thebigh mencioned, for this the Forum is insustituible.

A search engine with the linguistic capabilities of ChatGPT can of course be useful, but a language model like ChatGPT without access to real-time information, no matter how good the language model is, is nothing more than a toy, can serve as an assistant or customer support for certain products with the necessary knowledge base of this product, but no more. Today, the information from search engines with AI is infinitely more reliable than that from AI chats, especially if they are not from large monopolies that may reflect certain commercial and/or political interests in their responses, as has already been experienced in Google, MS and also BraveAI, the latter with strong influences from the extreme right and whose CEO was already fired from Mozilla for this. Better the independent AI You can try right now https://andisearch.com (My favorite) https://www.perplexity.ai (also as usefull Browser extension) https://phind.com (specially for devs and programmers) https://you.com (the most complete)

First of all, ChatGPT , independent of the version, is a language model to be able to interact with the user, imitating being intelligent. It has a knowledge base that dates back to 2021 and adds what users contribute in their chats. This means, first of all, that it is not valid if you are looking for correct answers, since if it does not find the answer in its base, it has a tendency to invent it with approximations or directly with false or obsolete answers. With this, the future will not change, it will occur with AI of a different nature, on the one hand with search engines with AI, since they have access to information in real time, without needing such complex language models and for this reason, they will gradually search engines are going to add AI, not only Bing or Google, but before these there was Andisearch, like the first of all, Perplexity.ai, Phind.com and You.com. Soon there will also be DuckDuckGoAI. On the other hand, generative AI to create images videos and even aplications, music and other, like game assets or 3D models., The risk with AI came up with Auto GPT, initially a tool that seemed useful, but it can be highly dangerous, since on the one hand it has full access to the network and on the other hand it is capable of learning on its own initiative to carry out tasks that are introduced as if it were a Text2Image app out there, what was demonstrated with ChaosGPT, the result of an order introduced in Auto GPT to destroy humanity, which it immediately began to develop with extraordinary efficiency, first trying to access the missile silos nuclear weapons and to fail, luckily, trying to get followers on Twitter with a fake account that he created and where he got more than 6000 followers, hiding later, realizing the danger that can be blocked or deactivated on the network. Currently nothing is known about it, but it is still a danger not exactly to be ruled out, it can really become Skynet. AI is going to change the future, but not ChatGPT which isnt more than a nice toy.

Crafting tools isn't a bad idea, I remember misions where I use a knife to escape a prison, a crowbar instead of lockpicks, a saw to open a cellar, a wrench to open a floodgate...things like these are in several misions. This can be extended to use one or more objects to improvise a tool

If you want to use Bing Chat you can do it only using EDGE..and now also using Vivaldi, which disguised itself as EDGE if you go to Bing Chat. Another middlefinger from Vivaldi to discriminatory big company behavior

Soe wallpaper I made with https://skybox.blockadelabs.com Skybox is amazing.

I've been enjoying TDM for a few years now, precisely because there isn't a certain style of playing it depending on the missions, which are very different from each other with different objectives. It is not a certain style with more or less strategy, as is usual in normal FPS, which in broad strokes are limited to getting from point A to point B and killing everything that moves in between. It is this variety with great replayability, without getting boring that makes TDM special. Covering practically all genres of video games, from Tetris to survival horror there is everything, stealth is only one of these and not even necessary in some missions

I don't know the others in the Amnesia series and I can't judge if it's the weakest. The plot is certainly a bit confusing, though for the game itself it didn't bother me too much. I didn't dislike it and due to the atmosphere and gameplay it wasn't that bad and if it's also free you can't complain. The Penumbra series if I have played it in the past and it is certainly quite a classic.

Yesterday and today I played Amnesia for a while. It gave me a lot of TDM vibes for the atmosphere and plot in a total Steampunk world. A lot of stealth in the second half of the game because of some pretty nasty AI. Good puzzles. I can even imagine it as an inspiration for some future mission. Recommended game

Yes, similar time and atmosphere. Downloading

I found this free AI tool, which maybe is usefull for you. Wonder Studio is an AI tool that automatically animates, lights, and composes CG characters into a live-action scene. It takes single-camera footage and detects the actor's performance, transferring it to the CG character with automated animation, lighting, and composition. It also allows for multiple characters to be used, and has an artist community with free characters (or use own). It is designed to make hard VFX shots a thing of the past. https://wonderdynamics.com
