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/

https://github.com/HansKristian-Work/vkd3d-proton/tags <- directx 12 wrapper for dxvk https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/tags <- directx to vulkan wrappers D3D 9 to 11 eg. dxvk if you want to try it with horizon zero dawn you need to copy out dxcompiler.dll from Tools\ShaderCompiler\PC\1.0.2595\x64 and bink2w64.dll from Tools\bin and place them next to HorizonZeroDawn.exe. then copy over dxgi.dll from dxvk and d3d12.dll from vkd3d and place them next to it to. now fire up the game and let the shaders recompile -> profit.

TTLG? That's Through the Looking Glass Forums. A looking glass fan community. Has been around for a long, long time. https://www.ttlg.com/forums/

I think the reason the dev forums exist is to provide a place where the implementation of features can be discussed without getting mixed up with other debates when someone believes what the devs are doing is wrong. We often post public discussion threads for features with subjective elements like the frob outline, because community feedback is very important. But there will always be vocal defenders with strong views for or against certain features, or how exactly it should be implemented in their opinion. At some point a decision has to be made and be carried through, which is what the dev forums are for. Almost all of the threads are very technical, basically explaining and discussing recent or potential code changes with other devs. Its hard to say. Its a hobby the devs do in their spare time, so people come and go when they're in the mood and when they have the time. The team page is mostly accurate except for some relatively newer additions like myself.

I just read@motorsep Discovered that you are able to create a brush, then select it and right click "create light". Now you have a light that ha the radius of the former brush. Just read it on discord and thought it may be of use for some people in the forums here too.

I just found this thread on ttlg listing Immersive Sims: https://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=151176

I am reporting here my experience with compiling TheDarkMod from sources on Linux. I am going to attach some patches, but beware that especially the ones related to build may be specific to the system.I have used a Gentoo Linux distribution, with multilib enabled (that means that I have a lot of libraries compiled also in 32 bit version).Relevant packages:GNU compiler: 5.4.0Boost libraries: 1.62.0The Dark Mode: SVN trunk (2.06+, last commit: 6731, Dec 15, 2016). Finally, I am new to this program and I have gone mostly from scratch, likely ignoring a big deal of lore that may demonstrate some of this as obsolete, non-optimal or plain wrong and dangerous. I'll try to catch up with the threads developing on the subject. I downloaded the sources with: git svn clone --stdlayout https://svn.thedarkmod.com/publicsvn/darkmod_src thedarkmod git tag FromSVN # to keep track of my own changes (because I am the GIT type), and it took long. Nothing I am writing here depends on using GIT instead of SVN anyway. First, I should have applied immediately NightStalker's patch. I didn't, and I regret. It's from this forum, at http://forums.thedarkmod.com/topic/18544-time-saver-build-fix-for-sconslinux-compilation. Also, I did some tuning on the build scripts, that are good for general purpose but not for distribution (the distribution plays safe and assumes Pentium3). I enabled as many CPUs as available and the "native" instruction set (build_tuning.patch.txt). IDLib tries to forward-declare std::basic_string, which is a standard C++ class; unfortunately its declaration is an implementation detail, and the one in PUGIXML turns out to be incompatible with the one shipped by GCC: error: reference to ‘basic_string’ is ambiguous std::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > PUGIXML_FUNCTION as_utf8(const std::basic_string<wchar_t, std::char_traits<wchar_t>, std::allocator<wchar_t> >& str); And the system string class from GCC 5 is different from the one that was used to build the Boost libraries that are shipped. Sadly, the only thing I could manage was to hard-code the system Boost libraries in the build paths. In my case they are at /usr/lib32, so the magic took the form of: grep -r -l -e 'lib/libboost' * | xargs sed -i -e 's@/usr/local/lib/libboost\(.*\).a@/usr/lib32/libboost\1.so@g' -e 's@#.*linux/boost/lib/libboost\(.*\).a@/usr/lib32/libboost\1.so@g'boost_link.sh.txt (note the "/usr/lib32/" path in two places). This, and changing PUGI header (pugi_strings.patch.txt) did the job. Now, there are linking problems with duplicate definitions. I really do not understand how that thing was supposed to work, but anyway I changed the definition of INLINE for GCC so that it avoids emitting multiple definitions for the same functions. Also I had to manually fix a couple of places for the same reason (inline.patch.txt). Next, a recent commit added a source file (idlib/geometry/RenderMatrix.cpp) but it did not add it to the source list for Linux build. There is also some piece that is Windows specific and that needs to be disabled (RenderMatrix_in_Linux.patch.txt). After this, running ./linuxBuild.sh produces gamesx86.so and thedarkmod.x86, which I copied manually into the directory where I had a downloaded installation (2.04), and that makes it a 2.06. The updater has still Boost link problems, so I use the shipped one. Just that. Now compilation works to me all the way from commit 6600 to 6731, with some exceptions here and there. The first commit works well enough that I could actually start playing Saint Lucia. The latter, though, is buggy in that my character is always considered in deep darkness: convenient for him, but not for my gameplay. More about this in another post, I guess. If you want to give these patches a try, you can run patch -p1 < patchname.patchin the main source directory (the attached patches should be renamed, with .txt removed; the shell script operates the substitution above).

Recently revisiting the forums after a longer period of time I wanted to check the unread content. I don't know if I am doing this wrong since.. ever... but on mobile (visiting the unread content page on my smartphone) you have to click on that tiny speech bubble to go to the most recent post in a thread. If you don't click correctly you'll hit the headline and end up at post 1 in the beginning of the thread. It's terrible on mobile, since not only the speech bubble is really small and was to miss. But also the thread headline is just millimeters away from it so you go right to the first post that was ever made instead of the most recent ones. Am I doing it wrong? I just want to go through u read content a d the to the newest post from that topic.

A@datiswous Ah yeah, well sorry, I was quiet busy and only visiting discord. First time here on the forums since months now I think.. Thank you for the subtitles. I encourage everyone who is interested in using them to download it from here as I'm not sure when I'll be able to implement them myself into the mission. Again, thank you for your work.

I think it is a good idea! Our ingame mission downloader and mission view has long been subject of multiple improvement suggestions. Due to the sheer mass of missions that have been released in the last 15 years, things got really cluttered and especially newcomers will have a hard time finding what they want. However, improving the ingame guis is quite a task, so a web-based application might really suit this scenario well. Maybe we could even add a linke to it from our ingame menus, so user can access it quicker. Some more things to think about Would users be able to add custom tags and downvote / upvote certain tags, much like the system of Steam? This would also allow to add tags like "beautiful", or "difficult". Actually, the more users can contribute to this system, the better, because it will be automatically maintained then. The browser should also contain a flag for whether the FM belongs to a connected series of FMs or not and have the capability to go to the previous or next FM in that series. There should also be a flag for fully fledges campaigns. Some might like a flag whether or not an FM is "ghostable".

Yes, it does. Which makes it interesting that you yourself explicitly said that it's interesting nobody had complained here on the official forums: I did, which is why it stood out to me so much that even though you yourself had personally been involved you would reply claiming nobody had complained here on the official forums. I'm not colorblind at all. Does that make people pointing out that almost no modern games have proper colorblindness support hyperbole? Just because it doesn't affect you, or you choose not to pay attention to the discussion of something, doesn't make it hyperbole. Pick pretty much any modern FPS and you will find plenty of discussion about the near universal disregard for FOV and camera movement as accessibility issues. Denigrating those as hyperbole because you personally don't feel the affects is as bad of a look as demeaning people who bring up the importance of valid allergen warnings like gluten or colorblindness and deafness support.

Hey, Every time I've try to use the Full Editor when PM'ing someone, and every single time I get an error. Whoever is in charge of the forum, is it possible that this could be fixed? Thanks Neon
