Heyo, I was asked if I would do a familiariisation of Dark Radiant for new mappers, so they can quickly learn what's what in DR and how to use it. It's not a mapping tutorial, but more just a get familiar with DR. It'd be good if this is useful, if it would be stickied so it's always available for new mappers. Springheels,Sothas, and Fidcals tutorials are all in the description of the video.

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.

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

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?

Hails Taffers! Deadlove here. I just wanted to take this post to introduce myself to the forum. Many thanks to Broken Glass Studios and the whole TDM team for making this mod possible! I am an avid T1/T2/T3 fan + player. Ever since 1998 when the demo was first released, I knew that THIEF was something very special. I've been a big enthusiast of FPS games since WOLFENSTEIN 3D, and this only compounded with the release of DOOM, which made me become addicted to playing and mastering those levels for countless hours on end. I also have a deep passion for the Raven Software titles of HERETIC and HEXEN and its sequels. Most every game that has used the id Tech engines has really left a mark on me. I remember when the Dark Mod was first released with "Tears of St. Lucia" and my brother and I played through the level and were stunned at how the game was brought to life with a more modern engine. The id Tech 4 engine is still very viable, and to this day is proof with the impact that TDM has brought, and given life to the THIEF series, and stealth gameplay, taking it to an entirely new level of realism, design, and play-ability. Also, I am a QUAKE purist too, as I've found that the original QUAKE from 1996 is my favourite from the series. I enjoy the the engine tweaks and the monstrous upheaval that the QII engine provided, but in the cyber Strogg warfare I miss a lot of the original twisted nightmare creatures (Shambler, Vore, Spawn) that were so unique to the first game. I don't know why id Software never followed through on making more of this world, but instead took to a space feel instead of an extra dimensional feeling. (Maybe to separate DOOM from QUAKE more?) Anyway, I have my own little(big) ideas and wanted to make an introduction. I'm currently replaying THIEF Gold on Expert to re-live the experience with more matured mind, as when I was first exposed I was too young to get any of the novelties, side stories that the game. I'm not a programmer, map builder, scripter, but I have very good chops in the sound department. I have a degree in Audio Engineering and can make anything from the SFX / ambient / dialogue department. I am learning to build with DarkRadiant, but I am below a novice with this type of thing. I can see it in my head and draw it on paper, but I've never used the Radiant Editor until now. Thanks for the YouTube tutorials + other tutorials. Okay, so there's a post for the community! Thank you to all involved, and I intend to get involved myself deeper the more I learn to help be able to create and expand on this world that Looking Glass brought to life! I believe that THIEF : The Dark Project is a pinnacle game in this market. I say this because it forced the player to not be able to run in blazing and killing. It required the player to NOT be found and interact with the world and learn from it without revealing yourself to the game. Much more like a book, than a movie. This is what has kept me so wrapped up in the THIEF franchise, as it plays itself out as a character in a novel and the grand architecture that the character moves throughout makes a place that is very powerful. IMMERSION into the game/storyline. I'm also not one for multiplayer games. While they are fun, they are endless. I prefer a great game with driving campaign and story to further the anxiety, and get the player wound up in the world created. There were times in my younger years that after clearing out a section of a level in SS2 that I really did not want to go into the next room, in fear of the horrors that would await. Okay, enough about that, but just my greeting.... Glad to be able to experience TDM and the way it keeps the original spirit of THIEF alive.
