      (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.

      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...?)

      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?

  1. 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..?
  2. 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.
  3. Now this is game design and editing, and what grabbed my intrest was at 4:00 -

      So they have smoking ads on games now, even though they know they are mostly played by early teens? Those damn guys will never give up, will they, with their little subliminal messages, they are coming back hard on films and tv series too. Cool engine by the way.

      Actually, what caught my eye was at 3:05. Texture-painting by hand. Dang cool.

      @MD, yeah now if we had that in DR that would be extremely cool.

      copy and paste the whole link and that should work as I just tried it etc.

  4. I've upgraded IPB to the latest stable version, and since this was a major upgrade (from 2.3.6) I also had to re-do the forum style. Most of the new stuff is in place, but I bet that the logo will be changed. One of the many new features in version 3 is rating of posts and also a "report spammer" ability which will make it easier to single out spam bots and ban then at sight. Hopefully this will stop some of the spam threads we've seen recently. Make sure to empty your browser cache if you're experiencing any problems. And please report any errors etc in this thread. Cheers, ~m2
  5. I can't login to Steam forums. Please visit the Thief release threads and mention TDM Thanks!

      Just finished playing this morning, this was awesome, in an old skewl way - would love to make a TDM homage to it...

      I'm using the CD with TG, T2 and T3 on it. Darkloader doesn't like it. I can't get TG FMs to work

      I assume it works with a TG only CD

  7. The current font in the gamma setting screen was unspecified, which means D3 loaded a "default" font from "fonts/english". There are a few problems with that: * it does not work in Russian at all, leading to an empty screen * it contains no accented characters (making it look crappy in some western languages like German) * Without D3, the screen is empty There are two ways we can fix that: * use another, already existing font (preferable something that does not look that modern) * OR: find a suitable russian version of the font, and then patch the D3 font to contain accents. However, for a D3 free TDM, we need a replacement, anyway, so find a replacement font for western (preferable with Umlauts, otherwise we need to patch them in), too. I have now opted for the first, because I couldn't find a suitable free font (and the "patch the umlauts in"-problem would still remain). One font I found containing both accented characters and russian ones was 29$ - but the license was a bit unclear (it talked about embedding the font, while we only need the images). So, the only font from our already existing selection that seemed suitable/readable was Medusa: Two problems still exist: * The former modern font is replaced by something looking more old, making the entire screen now a mixed case of old font and newish outline. However, I was never really satisf. with the "modern" gamma screen inset. Maybe we should convert it to parchment instead? * The umlauts are missing. This needs to be fixed for readables, anyway, so this problem will go away with time.

      It will be really cool if a super talented editor like Gaetane will try TDM.

       

      I really hope this one :-D

      (and also Sterlino another editor that a like a lot)

      hah well the feathering isn't the best but i'm sure it will do for now.

  9. Undoubtedly this is a question covered in one of the many tutorials, but I haven't spotted it so far. I am completely new to TDM and I'm trying to wrap my head around this thing: If worldspawn brushes (or any other thing, I guess) intersect those which seal off the void, does that create a leak? If I am understanding correctly, it does. Is that so? Thank you.
  10. I miss the brown borders dividing up the sub forums. This great big block of grey looks ugly.

      Back in the days it was actually dark-red. Let's call it evolution :-P

  11. So... What was up with the forums all day yesterday..?
  12. You know, things like a mobius strip, a klein bottle. Or if you want normal geometry even simpler things like changing the down direction, spheroid terrain, endless corridors, trick corridors (that teleport you to a identical seeming but actually different place where you thought you were going seamlessly. Rooms larger inside than outside, the old T1 classic water running uphill etc.
  13. Welcome to the Dark Mod forums! I enjoyed browsing your gallery. =-)

  14. Hello!

    I saw on TDM forums that you are a very talented level designer. Could you lend your talents for The Sly Project? (http://tsp.comlu.com)

    We have no level designers yet and the project was announced almost a year ago. Please join us! I'm looking forward to your answer friend.

    Best wishes: Oszkár Winkler

  15. Hello!

    You mentioned on TDM forums that you are a skilled modeler. Could you lend your talents for The Sly Project? (http://tsp.comlu.com) There are only a few models we need.

    If you are interested, please e-mail me: woszkar@gmail.com

    Thank you! :)

  16. Hi! I started writing a wikiarticle on general mission design. Maybe it helps new (and old) mappers to improve their work. The basic work is here http://modetwo.net/d...ion_Design_Tips but it could use some more tips from other veteran mappers. Let me know what you think.
  17. [update] Spoke to Marcus @AMD UK on the phone and as it turns out a number of complaints have been made against "Spyre". My AMD forum account has been unbarred and my Ip address unblocked!!! Bought a new gfx card for xmas, been having issues with mainly the driver So I though a good place to look for support and polity vent etc - or so I thought My second post got flamed by some smart arse fanboy and then promptly locked, to which I reported the posted asking why it had been locked.. and then my account on there got deleted and my Ip blocked (untill the isp dhcp refreshed etc) so I cant login even with a different account name. I have emailed AMD directly about this as I did nothing wrong according the t&c's and I got no warning Pm or email from the forum mods. Now I've been over at the nVidia forums a long while back when I had the 8800GTX when I was equally frustrated when posting about the driver issue with thief etc, but at no point did a thread get locked or worse my account deleted. I don't have loyalty to AMD or nVidia but depending on the answer I get from AMD next week this card maybe going back and AMD will be added to the list of manufactures I will never buy anything from again. So whats the moral of this story, well take your pick.. [update] found cached copies of 1 of my posts Cached AMD frum link Cached AMD forum link2
  18. when i do a search, it give me some results, I click on a result and exspect to get taken to the post it specifies - but no..... I get taken to the first post of the bloody thread it is in..ggrrr
