I posted about it before, but I think the default tdm logo video looks outdated. For a (i.m.o.) better looking version, you can download the pk4 attached to this post and plonk it in your tdm root folder. Every mission that starts with the tdm logo then starts with the better looking one. Try for example mission COS1 Pearls and Swine.

For what it's worth, here a fix for mission The Creeps. place the pk4 file in the mission folder of fm The Creeps.
It consists of an mtr file that links to the correct video file.

Hmm, some missions use the same file name as the tdm logo video (briefing_video.roq) and revere to the core logo video while overriding it with their own video. For example fm The Creeps.
So then it doesn't work properly..

I moved from Manjaro Linux (rolling release) to Linux Mint (LTS). One of the reasons was that I found the updates a bit too often and long. But now on Mint I get updates every day, although they're usually small updates.

I also used Zenwalk in the past on a Netbook. This is how I discovered xfce.

Well yeah I thought it be less, but it's actually more regular. like every day

On a lighter note, thanks to my cat-like reflexes, my superior puzzle skills and my perfect memory, I was able to beat the remastered version of "Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation" in a new superhuman record time of 23 h : 35 m, worship me!

Since a certain system update (don't know which one), I regularly have the following situation:
1. I open the update program.
2. The program shows (a) nothing or (b) X possible updates.
3. When pressing "refresh", the program shows (a) suddenly available updates or (b) X+X possible updates.Maybe you could check if changing mirrors (Menu Edit > Software Sources > Official Repositories) helps, or maybe some of the options in Maintenance (Menu Edit > Software Sources > Maintenance)
This is just a wild guess though.

Well yeah Debian's package base is smaller and less recent I think. I don't really see the point of going to Debian. It's strange that it's slower than the Ubuntu version though..
I tried to like Kde, Gnome and Cinamon, but in the end sticked with xfce.
I think xfce is also a good choice if coming from Windows.

Stumbled upon a documentary on Enki Bilal, he is one of the most influential comic book artists of my adolescence. English auto-subtitles is rubbish, so you might need to brush up on your French
-
I love his stories and art.
There are no auto-subtitles in English available.
I guess the best way is to download the video and download or otherwise auto-generate subtitles and hope for the best.

Personal reminder for me to actually get back to TDM and all the missions I missed.
-
Started playing Prey (2016) again and yesterday xcom 1 and 2. I think I like xcom 1 a bit more for some reason.
It reminds me a lot of Star Craft 2 actually. I mean the base area gameplay.

Yo TDMers.
It has been a while. This past year or so I have encountered some tough family issues, became a grandfather, had a job change, and then Steam offered Dishonored and Dishonored 2 along with all DLC for like 5 dollars. So... have played that. What a game; highly recommend.I am looking to resume TDM activity soon.

While updating my first FM, I noticed a lot of silly things I did because I was still new to DR. For example, there was a model for a wheel that I wanted the player to be able to turn that had its origin off-center. I didn't know I could just re-export the model inside DR to fix its origin, so instead that wheel triggers a func_mover it's bound to. A silly solution in retrospect, has anyone else made somewhat janky or roundabout solutions to technical challenges in their maps? I'd love to hear about 'em!

@AmadeusI think there's some info about doing this here: https://wiki.thedarkmod.com/index.php?title=Combined_light_entities#Turning_lights_off/on
(Maybe completely unrelated: A while ago I found that some light holders with dev-attached lights don't have a name-attach spawnarg in their dev, so you have to add it manually yourself to make some stuff work. I forgot to report it)

Uhh yeah I don't understand the texture tool either. I wonder how many people understand/use it.
Edit: Just tried again and figured it out.

Whenever I eat fried chicken these days I think of this scene in The Black Mage..

Do you still remember the names of the movie and book?

I just bought/build a new pc, so probably less performance related whining from my part from now on..
Sorry in advance!

Where is the "Game Connection" element in the Linux version of DR? I could swear, I saw that in an older build (which I conveniently deleted a few days ago).
-
I'm currently using the Flatpack version. I think there are 4 install options in Linux.

I think it only shows up if you go to menu Window > Game connection
And yeah I think they changed this in a recent version of DR
I'm using 3.9 on Linux and it's there

Bikerdude makes some of the best maps for The Dark Mod. They're usually a little bit challenging, but not unreasonably so. I would also recommend Business as Usual for anyone who enjoyed this map.

So I guess it could be that a large part of that fm is actually made by Dram?

What is bhm?

Does anyone know if the mission/map in this video posted by @Springheel can still be found somewhere and played? Looks like fun.

Yeah Springheel already answered that on tdm Discord.

Cool thing: Thanksgiving break means I don't have to get my son up before dawn
Not cool thing: My son stays up all night on my PC so I don't get much TDM time...-
Time for his own pc?

Today I started writing readables for my WIP mission.
I wrote my usual text and then crammed it into AI and boom, high quality stuff comes out.
I used to say that clipper is the mappers best friend, but now it seems it is more like "AI is the mappers best friend."

oday, I began writing readable content for my work-in-progress mission.
I drafted my usual text and then fed it into an AI tool, and voilà—high-quality material emerged!
When testing your mission I was thinking that those readable could have some improvements.
