    I did actually make a prototype which I thought was an improvement.

    I think it looks great and should be added to core as an option for mappers to include (although I think the audio isn't entirely fitting).

    This is how my tweaked mission selection screen looks. If the image was a slideshow and the text was scrollable, with a max height (I couldn't find a way yet how to include those) it would be even better.

    Now that I think of it, the mission selection screen and downloader could be merged into one screen. where the not downloaded missions have a download button and the ones already downloaded you can activate directly.

  2. Best i.m.o. is to alter New Job and Saint Lucia with (more) hints and tutorial aspects and/or including an extra tutorial mission.

    Two-mission community FM sample

    I rather would go with a poll for a bunch of prefered starter missions and then link to that on tdm main page. Inside TDM it should entirelly up to the player what he/she chooses. The mission downloader should have a better layout with filters and better graphics (screenshot slideshow directly visible instead of in sub menu). I already made some changes to the (2.10) mission selection gui for myself.

    I think every tdm intro logo gets old over time. I personally like the current one, just not with every mission.

    I don't understand why it still wants to update something when you run it after you updated though. It deleted all my settings as well, argh...

    You have the option to install a previous version or a dev/beta version instead of the default latest stable release.

    You really do not have to watch that movie. :)

    Usually every month I go to a movie event called Straight to video. We watch movies with low imdb ratings, usually from the 80s.

    Although some of these aren't really fun, like:

     

  5. There's an issue with stencil shadows in this area:

    The shadows on the ceiling move around whenever the player moves their view .

    Another thing I noticed is that in the main menu, whenever the snow-falling animation loops, there is a delay and the mouse movement is frozen for half a second. This happens like ones in 5 seconds. The original video file is 10 seconds.

    Edit: After restart TDM I can't reproduce the looping snowflake menu issue anymore.

    I am working on the first first patch now and will look to see if I can smooth the edges on that ending as I see how it might be confusing.

     

    Did you change something to the ending compared to the beta? Maybe I shouldn't read player reviews here..

    a pure Mission Update shouldend be as big  as the Original Mission .

    I agree. If the update is only in the *.map file, it shouldn't be needed to download the full fm pk4. I also think that translations should be separate downloads.
