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

Hi guys, through the "cheats" topic I got the idea, that it would be quite useful, if there were tags for missions (the post was about removing the killing restriction in some missions to suit the prefered play style). I don't know how easy or difficult this is, but with them, it would be quite convenient to pick missions with playstyles, environment, etc one does want to use. This could also be expanded to other mission properties. I remember a discussion about climbable drains, handles on doors, that cannot be picked and other things the map author chooses for himself. That way these things would be clearer and as I said before, it is easier to choose missions with playstyles that suit oneself. What do think?

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

TDM 2.10 and newer already have substantially improved data loading speeds due to SIMD mipmap and compression changes. RBDoom3BFG does support binary asset loading but managing binary assets is generally seen as too cumbersome for most mappers. TDM 2.10 and newer already supports RGTC normal map compression. If desired we could convert assets to that format. There is a reluctance to do so because material "program" keywords must decompress that data and this will lead to decompression artifacts in the final render. We would need to identify textures that no mission author would ever customize with keywords before deciding which ones to compress

A small thing is the naming convention of the “Med” “Small” “Tiny” and then Patch “1”,”2”,”3” actually confused me a bit when first testing the assets. I assumed the ones labeled small/tiny would be the loose tufts you could spread around and the ones labeled patch would be the larger areas of grass but it is actually the other way around. This confusion only lasts as long as placing a couple assets though. On the gameplay side any plans for the denser area grass to have something like a configurable light gem modifier when the player is crouched in them?

id Studio did a poor job in defining its categorization of variable nomenclature, so in subsequent documentation and discussions there are divergent views (or just slop). In my series, I had to choose something, and went with what I thought would be clearest for the GUI programmer: Properties, which are either Registers (like true variables) Non-registers (like tags) User Variables (also true variables) I see that your view is more along these lines (which perhaps reflects C++ internals?): Flags (like my non-registers) Properties, which are either Built-in (like my registers) Custom (like user Variables) Also, elsewhere, you refer to "registers" as temporaries. I am willing to consider that there could be temporary registers during expression evaluation, but by my interpretation those would be in addition to named property registers. I'm not sure where to go next with this particular aspect, but at least can state it.

Mostly volumetric lighting, other updated assets are not in this screenshot.

I've added my old 2015-2016 WIP Of Brambles and Thorns to the abandoned repo. It's a large mansion mission set in the woods, suitable for a spooky or detective story, a faithful recreation of the real-life luxury hotel "Halcyon Hall"/posh girls' school "Bennett College", at least with regards to the exterior. You can find lots of historic material on the internet and drone-recorded videos of the whole exterior on Youtube. Architecture is mostly done and some sparse interiors exist. There used to be more interiors, but they were lost during an incorrect backup overwrite - screenshots of some of those interiors can be found in #2 to #10 of this album and in the .pk4's screenshot folder (which is the reason why I personally have little motivation to recreate them, rather than working on my new & original WIPs). There are also some old versions of my custom assets - would be better to switch to the improved versions available in core assets. This FM would be suggested for someone with intermediate mapping experience due to its large size.

I'm not sure about the exact files that are missing. My first 5 posts document the models and entities I've found to be buggy in DarkRadiant and TDM though. IIRC DarkRadiant reports missing stuff in the console... perhaps I can copy the links from there and share them here later if that helps. I'd be quite surprised if I somehow had unofficial assets put in by the installer: I never manually placed any assets in the core directory, except for my WIP cyberpunk mod TheDarkModule which I can obviously differentiate. If any assets are coming up, the installer placed them there one way or another... that being said my base installation is many years old. I really hope there aren't issues with some of those assets not being official though. Considering not just that they're very good ones, but that I'm already using them in a FM I'm working on and designed my map around them; I'm looking to keep my FM small and would rather not include copies of big foreign assets with it. That justice fence I'm not using so it can go. The mages, Tudor buildings, and grass entity are assets that I use however. IIRC they're all official and I'd be shocked if they weren't, though just in case perhaps someone can double-check just so we can put this possibility aside.

I'm no expert at creating assets, but I figured I'd share what I have whenever I make it. Custom Assets Note: I'm currently in the process of reconfiguring this post, so as to have any custom assets readily available in one place. Please pardon any messy formatting/broken or missing links while this takes place.

Thanks, I can also recommend gog galaxy. The idea of the custom tags is really nice, I'll have to try this out too!

Keep in mind also that mission size, and complexity have increased dramatically since the beginning. For a lot of veteran mappers, it can take over a year to get a map made and released. The last dozen missions have for the most part been pretty massive, with new textures, sounds, scripts, models etc. We seem to be long past the point of people loading up the tools, and banging out a mission in a few weeks that's very barebones. We still do see some of those, but I noticed in the beta mapper forums and on Discord, that mappers seem to make these maps, but don't release them, and instead use the knowledge gained to make something even better. Could just be bias on my part scrolling through the forums and discord server though.

Oh! I didn't realize assets.lst could hide .def files. I have assets.lst working for materials, but I can't seem to get it working for .def files: Should assets.lst go into the base\ folder or the base\def folder? I couldn't get it working with either. To clarify, is the documentation in https://www.darkradiant.net/userguide outdated? "Asset paths listed on the left-hand side are interpreted relative to the directory containing assets.lst (which must be models or materials)."

YOU TAFFERS! Happy new year! Deadeye is a small/tiny assassination mission recommended for TDM newcomers and veterans alike. Briefing: Download link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JWslTAC3Ai9kkl1VCvJb14ZlVxWMmkUj/view?usp=sharing Enjoy! EDIT: I promised to someone to write something about the design of the map. This is in spoiler tags below. Possibly useful to new mappers or players interested in developer commentary.

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.

Seems to confirm: https://bugs.thedarkmod.com/view.php?id=5718 does it happen in the latest dev build: https://forums.thedarkmod.com/index.php?/topic/20824-public-access-to-development-versions/

I thought it'd be cool if we had some really cool pieces of loot, so I found some historic inspiration. Templar Crosses. Assorted GothicJewellery

I have returned to TheDarkMod after a few years (I played it a lot around 2015-16, even tried making a map, it did not go anywhere so I donated those few assets). The missions are great. In this one in particular, the navigation is awesome. The city is very good. I have noticed a trend though: the puzzles are more complicated; a lever may open something *somewhere*. Do you think that large TDM missions are suffering from "puzzle creep", that the veteran and in-community players do not notice? [/spoiler] So you have to go *all the way back* to use the crystal key on the teleporter thingy? And I don't know how to deal with the burning crystals either. I ended up killing nearly all enemies in the mages' place, with sword and holy water, because, yeah, I need to figure things out and I can't be bothered to stealth from one place to another anymore, lol. I will try checking the readables and environment with a bit more patience and see. [spoiler] The old format for spoiler tags does not work, not does changing the '/'. Wow, what a way to advertise "I am dumb" XD IMO the best way is to place gradual spoilers in the forum thread. I know it's a bit of a burden on the authors but answering 20 questions disjointly from different users is one as well.

I agree and I remember saying something similar before and the answer if I recall correctly was, stencil stays in, that was a few years ago, and they add (and still have) very valid reasons, one was because maps in TDM, was still in its infancy and not well optimized, but it has improved much since (stencil also with the soft shadow option). Thou I know this is not a easy decision for the team, you can't just delete the stencil shadow code and everything will be fine, TDM age and success, is also a big problem for the way it handles shadows, because of how old and popular it is, it has hundreds of assets and missions made, with stencil shadows alone in mind, changing those assets today (materials mostly), in particular those with alpha enabled, will require free work, from someone, and will also with no doubt, break shadows in all missions made until now and not forget, decrease performance, by the simple fact that, more stuff that didn't cast shadows, trees, grass, banners, decals, etc, now will and some of them shouldn't, so the missions will have to be updated, and it may never happen if the mission maker is gone. Is not a easy problem to solve.
