      To let you know a bit in advance if you have a tight schedule and to catch last few things and tweaks:)

  2. Just wanted to say, Hello! From reading through various posts in the forums it seems like a great community and I hope to become a part of it. So I got the hankering for some Thief as of late and stumbled on TDM through some googling. After purchasing Doom 3 through Steam and instaling TDM, I have been nostalgiacly playing through many of the FMs and have also decided to d/l the Radiant editor and start making a mission, maybe many, we'll see. As it turns out also, I just started (today!) my 1 week vacation from work and intend to dive in to the Radiant editor and am currently going through the A-Z wiki on it. A bit of background on me, I 'used' to work in application support till the economic crash a couple years ago and was laid off and am now running a machining center at a local machine shop, using Mastercam daily, 2D/3D stuff and have always wanted to make a mission/game, and decided since I've always enjoyed the Thief series and stealth gameplay so much, this is where I would start. After getting to my third year in Mechanical Technology I changed my major to Information Technology (should have went with straight Computer Science but ahhh hindsight). I've always loved building things and designing things and also really enjoy computers, art, audio, and the entire visual experience as presented to a user. I have created a couple playable maps before using the older source engine editor so I'm vaguely familiar with 3D modeling, skyboxes, lighting, AI pathing, etc. That's been over 10 years ago though. I got familiar with 3dsmax, ProE, Autocad, and Mastercam in my first major during school so that helps a bit when familiarizing with a new editor and as previously mentioned I've dabbled around in the Valve Source editor. I'm also very much looking forward to the Crucible of Omens campaign created by the marvelous talent at TDM and would like to help in any way I can once I'm familiar with the Radiant engine. I can also do many many voices, I've often thought about moving out to Cali from Indiana and finding work in voice-overs, voice acting, etc. All this started as a youngster with little friends, time on my hands, and imaginary friends. Wow that's hard to admit. So anyway, I've been working on a shadowy Garrett voice, and can do guards and some women characters with old, old english, gruff, slippery, sneaky, terrifying, voices and personalities. Just thought I'd mention that as it may be a way that I could contribute early on and would also enjoy. So anyway, too much about me and not enough A-Z wiki, back to the tutorial! Glad to be here and hope for good things to come.
  3. I haven't been around too much recently, but when I do look into the forums every so often, I am always amazed how much progress is being made on the mod. Great work people!

      I wish there was a way we could play against each other on line.

      Neat, but a gimmick.

      True but its Chess meets Thief! The best gimmick ever!

  4. A couple of days ago Larian Studios launched a kickstarter for their new game "Divinity: Original Sin". It's an rpg that (among other things): - is party based (with optional multiplayer) - has turn based combat - is played from a top down perspective - focuses on an interactive game world - comes with an editor I have only played one of their older games: "Divine Divinity". It was a very good rpg with a big open world, a lot of quests and different playstyles that unfortunately became hack and slash towards the end because the developer ran out of money and time. The new one is already far in development and looks very promising but they need additional funding to polish it up.
  5. Does anybody else have this problem? In the (European) evenings the forum is unbearable slow. The server is delivering about 8Kbyte/s, sometimes less and usually stops midwhere during loading the page. Sometimes you can't even get the index page, sometimes you can log in, but then only get half of the overview etc. In the mornings everything is snappy.

      I never got into BSD, though I've installed it once or twice. This is another reason to check it out.

      The BSD's arn't for everyone, but within their goals, simple code and mailing lists lies a lot of goodness and simplicity. I love the underdogs. Anyhoo work will be Linux friendly too. Portability is a cornerstone for good code.

  6. Is there a limit to kickstarter threads? LA Game Space Anyway, this project sounds weird and... weird. I think it's worth watching at least Pen Ward's message about the project (the creator of Adventure Time!), I'm a huge fan of his and the video is funny and cute: http://youtu.be/ypc0RA3w6RM

      Sotha: Russian was a poor example. I meant that even tho the language might reflect badly on the writer, it's the message that counts. Of course, I rather prefer a professional, well-thought out and presented opinion, too, but sometimes cutting through the bullshit is easier when you can just every f-word instead of reverse translating stuff like "utelizing synergy-driven brand effects" :D

    3. Sotha

      Sure, but an intelligent writer should be aware that their important message may be completely ignored due to inability to write properly. Their important message will sink into the bottomless depths of empty-minded drivel that is the blogosphere. In the modern era information flood, the reader must carefully evaluate the data on multiple criterion before accepting it.

      Absolutely true. There was a very insightful article around Julian Assange's alledged rape and the situation in Sweden, where things seem to have gotten out of control regarding what is defined as rape. However, the article was so hateful and biased that even if all stated fact were true, I could not ever use it as a reference.

  8. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-20165344 Elite up on Kickstarter, with added BBC coverage. Ł250.000+ within a single day.

      My favorite Elite clone was Hardwar, and I wish that'd get an updated treatment. But a new version of Elite itself would be very cool too!

    2. 7upMan

      Already pledged 20 GBP. While there is no real info on Elite (neither video nor screens), the campaign runs for 60 days. This is plenty time to make up my mind and retreat, if necessary.

      (We can leave the thread for journalism corruption, but just on this...) Then the issue in academia is money flowing to the more corruptable fields like science & engineering with the big corporate grants & revolving door with staff. The humanities might not get that, but OTOH they are getting pressured to "justify their existence" financially. I could probably agree it's rife in almost any human field though, as long as there are incentives there will be corruption.

    3. demagogue

      Or then we have the "uncorruptable" critical academics, but then they're basing their work on Derrida or Marx and are so detached from reality they throw their credibility out the window. It's good to be critically detached, not so good to be derailed from reality. My position in law sometimes is something like a critical realism, but it's practically an orphan position. (You want to protect victims *and* think science works??? Wha...?)

    4. Sotha

      Who is uncorruptable anyways? I cannot convince even myself that I would be uncorruptable in every situation. And I perceive myself to be situated in the more-reliable-than-50%-of-the-general-population side in the gaussian distribution curve of corruption. Problematic, yes?

  9. For the last 1-2 weeks the forums have been really slow and unresponsive for me, when I type a post half the time it just sits there etc.. is anyone else having the same issues..?

  11. Hi guys, everyone who loved the Homeworld games as well as "Nexus: The Jupiter Incident", will love to hear that a Kickstarter campaign was started today for Nexus 2: The Gods Awaken. You will find a video with a presentation of the capaign here. Anyone who has no idea what kind of game Nexus: The Jupiter Incident really was, please have a look at the trailer here. Also, there are several Let's Play's on YouTube. Here is , and one without, focusing completely on gameplay. Nexus 1 still looks breathtakingly beautiful, and I can only recommend it to anyone who is even remotely into space RTS. It is available on GOG.com for 10 US-Dollars, DRM-free of course. Together with the Kickstarter presentation, it clearly shows what to expect from its successor. I hope you guys will like the project and pledge much.
