    Note that when I pressed F12 to take it, I was in reality seeing the the scene just with no shadows... only now noticed everything came out black with only the HUD and entities showing! Will share it here anyway in case it helps.

    I have the same issue with stencil shadows enabled, that the screenshots turn out completely dark (lights are not lit on the screenshot). Issue is not present with shadow maps.

  2. Found this software, but I have not a clear idea if it could be useful:

    Create static Sky images (Cubemaps, equirectangular panoramas) from 2D images (Sprites), to be used in a variety of game engines and frameworks.

    • 3D + GUI desktop application (Linux, Windows)
    • Import 2D images (Sprites) and place them in the scene
    • Manipulate Sprites (size, roll angle, tint, opacity, ...)
    • Import background image or use solid color
    • Correct background image horizon and realign orientation
    • Adjust the Scene (ambient color, background, ...)
    • Save/load .json based project files
    • Export as cubemaps (6 square images) and equirectangular panorama (one 2:1 image)

     

  3. Recently I started listing the Abandoned Works on a wiki page. Looking through some of the project folders I encountered assets that were posted on the forum years ago (for example this fish), but I never read about them before. I don't think the forum is good for listing assets, it's off course good for discussing.

    So I was wondering maybe it's an idea to make a list of game assets, including scripts, centered in one place? Knowing the assets exists, people are able to find it on the forums (placing direct links on the wiki page will get outdated). I might have to ask people for permission.

    Good idea. I'll have to research how to add a new wiki template.

    I don't know why you need to create a new wiki template, but I just created the category GUI and added the GUI Scripting Language page to it and made category GUI a subcategory of the Editing category, so the Gui category is listed here:

    https://wiki.thedarkmod.com/index.php?title=Category:Editing

    If this was not how you wanted it, you can revert it. I have not understood yet where a template is used for.

     

    Edit: I have read a bit about wiki templates. Very interesting.

    https://wiki.thedarkmod.com/index.php?title=Assigning_your_Page_to_a_Category

    I guess you can just use one of the existing templates to build on:

  5. In the create model window, the scroll wheel does not scroll through the list. This works correctly in the create entity window, create particle window and insert prefab window.

    Reproduce: right-click in 2D view and select create model and use mouse scroll wheel to scroll through list. Instead in the background the camera view zooms out.

  6. Ah ok np, just asking. I do have to say that a lot of the cool stuff @STRUNKposted about is presented with video examples, that are gone and so it's very difficult to understand what's going on, which is a real shame I think. This is a downside of using Streamable I guess..

    Related to @STiFU's point, I guess I'll commit to creating a wiki page about transparent videos (and ghosts), once the dust settles a bit more. This would be based mainly on the recent discussion here, particularly the wonderful work by @STRUNK

    Did you or someone else created this wiki page? I couldn't find it.

    Hey guys i was playing around with darkmod and made a small test map, there's not much there and i really mean it, there's no history, objectives or anything, it was just me playing around with TDM tools, engine scripting and assets, because of lack of time i stop working on it but would be a petty if it went to the trash and perhaps it could be useful for someone, i'm releasing this as is, with no guaranty, i don't even know if it will work on your PC, if it blows up don't complain to me. 😜

     

    I tried to make it into a mission to be easy to try. (worked on my PC)

    Hope it is of some use.

    I must say, I expected a much smaller map. The frob-animated boxes are cool.

    I think it could be useful for ingame cinamatics, or for intro's based on screenshots.

    It's not realistic either.

    Indeed, I think it's implemented for it's cool looks, not for it's realism. Loads of stuff in TDM is unrealistic.

    It's used in photograpy and film, so it gives you that look.

    Getting close to what I want, just need to finish implementing notes and rating, it will read the FMS folder and gather the info and will launch whatever FM is selected fine. 

    Is it multiplatform?

    This only happens with extra views and the undocked texture tool.

    It also happens when you undock the textures tab or media tab (only image preview is affected) in Properties.

    (Sorry if I'm seemingly asking all the time about your Linux configs, I just can't keep track who's using what combination)

    I put my Linux distro under my user pic on the left
