  1. Is there something wrong with the forums lately, or is it my browser? I've been having trouble formatting posts, and just now I couldn't format anything at all.

    I'm using Vivaldi.

    Usually I have to: select text, click bold, nothing happens, select again, click bold, then it works. 

    Same for other stuff, like creating spoilers, bullet points, links. Nothing works the first time.

      I have no problem. I use Firefox. @Zerg Rush also uses Vivaldi. Have you tried without extensions, or in another browser?

      (btw. bold, italic and underline have shortcut keys: Ctrl B, Ctrl I and Ctrl U, you could try that)

       

  2. Hello fellow mapper comrades! The briefing wiki article has been updated and now it gives simple instructions how to create Text-only BriefingsButton Controlled Animated BriefingsTimed Flowing Animated Briefings The article also contains a simple packages to edit in order to easily create animated briefings of both types. Note that the briefing_flowing package has a .gui-file which has been fixed against the ESC-press-no-more-mouse-cursor -issue (thank you LEGION!). Animated Briefing Creation has never been this easy! (And fun.) Enjoy! http://modetwo.net/d...?title=Briefing EDIT: I have linked from the wiki article to the briefing package creation .zip's which are currently hosted at mediafire. Would it be possible to have them in a more stable place? I am talking about two .zip files weighing approximately 100kb each. It would be nice if we had these easily accessible from the wiki article. I tried to attach them to this post but alas I cannot.
  3. Since Aluminum directed me here ( https://forums.thedarkmod.com/index.php?/topic/9082-newbie-darkradiant-questions/page/437/#comment-475263 ) can we have unlimited renderer effects? Well, maybe not unlimited, by maybe 3-5? Thanks.

      Since I wasn't the one mainly asking, I'll just cite you in the original thread instead.

      There already is a kind of sorting, sort nearest, sort decal, sort <n>. For things like windows and such, sort nearest should probably have the desirable affect, though looking through multiple translucent shaders might kill performance.

      Is having multiple render effects really killing performance that badly? I don't understand. You're saying that if I have two transparent objects side-by-side, then they'll just count as two render effects, but when combined, they somehow become something much more difficult to render?

      Never-the-less, unless we're talking some kind of infinite portal problem, why not let the mapper choose how much he wants to kill performance? Just warn him against putting too many effects close together.

  4. Woo!! 2.10 Beta "Release Candidate" ( 210-07 ) is out:

      Yeah and the wiki and moddb. It should have those links in the footer I think. Probably easy to add by an admin.

      Edit: And a link to the bugtracker. I'm always searching for a post in the forum that links to that because I can't remember the url.

      I drew attention to this several times in the last few years. No one payed it any attention, so I just gave up.

      Reluctance to improve the forums is matched by reluctance to allow more people to work on it. Talk about trust and power.

  6. Has anyone tried using this kit, called Live2D? https://www.live2d.com/en/products/cubism3 Seems like it does 2.5D from morphing stuff in parallax slices - seen the effect used in games like Banner Saga. Think it's exported to unity, but probably can render a few scenes with it to make a movie that might add a bit of flair to a video briefing made from animated stills. Like the animated comics. But... the videos and docs are in Japanese... Looks as if the license is a subscription, also, although there's a free license for indie/non-commercial. Might be nice to take some screenshots of a scene, place a few models from the game over it and have a 2.5D briefing video to go with a voiceover or text. Not sure if it's cheaper to get it packaged with this other software called Visual Novel Maker, that is on Steam, in mid-range price bracket.
  7. I have seen quite a few older games have their cinematics and textures upscaled to more modern resolutions using machine learning powered applications. I decided to give one of the Thief videos a shot and this was the result. Took just under 2 hours to process. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zs4CYxB0PGI
  8. Not so long ago I found what could make a pretty good profile picture and decided to try it out on these new forums. But I couldn't find a button anywhere that would let me change it. I asked on Discord and it seems Spooks also couldn't find anything anywhere. So I logged into an old alternative account and, lo and behold, that account has a button. This is on the first screen I get when I: 1) click on my account name in the top-right of the browser -> 2) click on 'profile'. Compared to my actual account: Are you also missing this button on your account? It'd be very much appreciated if that functionality could be restored to any of the affected accounts.
  9. Afternoon Got a small issue with the way TDM is handling videos briefings - If I let the video briefing play, at the end it goes straight to the shop and then objectives screen as expected.If I press escape while the briefing vid is playing its take me to the Text briefing place holder (which ofcource is blank)What am I missing here, I'm guessing its some gui setting..? ta.
  10. Hi, I need to know what the code is to use Spoiler Tags. I am using my tablet and I don't have the options to use anything, like spoiler tags, quote tags, text changes etc. Thanks
  11. In all the time have worked on TDM mission I have never managed to get this bloody thing to work, so can I ask a favour please? Can someone edit the 'mainmenu_briefing.gui' so it allows for 10 briefing pictures and texts please. The one from the wiki allows for 6 - briefing_buttons.zip
  12. Still spreading the word about TDM on forums to new peops... Funny to see people say "Awesome, I loved playing Thief back in the day!"

      Yes it was in a discussion where someone was saying how unhappy they are with the way game companies grant themselves permission to do whatever they like to your PC and personal info today. I pointed out that giving up games completely is an unnecessarily overkill solution when there are free games like TDM to play.

      Honestly the mod/Indie genre is still really booming right now. And they aint got no reason to do shady invasive privacy bs.

  13. Does anyone know how to insert custom music into a timed briefing? The briefing has the lines: // Start the briefing menu music set "gui::targetmusic" MM_MUSIC_BRIEFING; resetTime "MainMenuMusicSelect" 0; But I don't see where MM_MUSIC_BRIEFING is actually set. Also, on a similar topic, is it possible to play two different sounds during a briefing (aside from ambient music)? I have vocals playing, but would like to play sound effects, but they seem to interrupt each other.
  14. To get some inspiration for my fm, I doodled again something nice for all to use. I have changed the introgui from D3 to a TDM-Themed briefing gui, and added some code. It shows a parchment, that automatically scrolls from bottom to top. The text appears like a writer, writes his text. And in the background you hear and see thunderflashes sounds. (for now the backgroundimage its just a placeholder.) It would be nice to create a candle light effect. But would do you think? In the following spoiler, you find the sourcecode.

  15. 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?
