  1. What's going on with the Thi4f forums? They've been down for almost a week now.

      Well that's not going to work. If they can't post about Thi4f on the Thi4f forums they can come and post about TDM on the TDM forums.

      People thought it was the server migration under Square-Enix that we've been told about, but they came back online like nothing happened, and the dedicated thread about the coming migration had no new info.

      Can't see this?:

      maybe it was a migration test, and it broke.

  2. Holy crap are we getting another download spike? The forums keep going intermittent on me.

      The forums aren't on the same servers as the downloads.

      its sunday, the internet is always slow on a sunday for some reason.

      "for some reason" I imagine is you being sarcastic as we all know everybody and their brother/sister are online on Sunday either shopping or looking at porn combined with all the gaming packets.

       

      I'm sure there are also people just "reading things for the articles" though...

    Forums fixed

    Had a problem with the web server yesterday that led to a crashed table in the forum database. This has now been repaired and things seems to work again. I was on travel so it took a while before I was able to fix it. Merry Christmas!
  4. Hi guys, first of all thank you thank you thank you and thank you for the 2.0 standalone version of your impressive game! Really, the dark mod (that now is a standalone game, no more just a mod, you could adapt the name like "the dark game" or "the-real-thief-legacy" ) is, in my opinion, one of the best game out there. Just thank you. I recently have played the Penumbra games and one thing that I have really appreciated of that game was how your character interacts with doors. It is a nice mechanism that gives you realistic controls over doors. In my opinion it is perfect for a game like The Dark Mod, where do you have a very nice control of object but not over important components of the game like doors and windows. Do you think it could be a good (and feasible) improvement for the game? I see many use cases for it like open a door just a little bit to see (and hear) what's behind it and then open it completely when you are sure. Below a little example of Penumbra and how do you interact with objects and doors: Again thank you for the game. I'm updating the missions right now...
  5. I can get on the main forum now but still get an error when trying to load posts. Anyone else?

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

  6. I installed Windows 95 the other day in DosBOX, but I cannot make the (experimental) 3dfx voodoo simulation work... darn.

      Well, I did get lots of errors that "This program has performed an illegal operation and will close". Seeing that error again is like seeing an old friend you haven't seen for over a decade. Back in the day, that would come up, and if you clicked close, it just popped up again.

  7. I picked up a Dell Venue 8 pro today. I would like to have some retro games on this thing, and I'm wondering how to go about it. I'm specifically wondering about the controls. OBVIOUSLY games from the 90s were not designed to play on a touch screen/with an accelerometer. Is there some program I can get (preferably free), that will allow me to set parts of the screen to function as certain keys? What about mapping the left/right of the accelerometer to turning left/right in a driving game and pitching it forward and back to accelerate/decelerate? EDIT: So far, I've read about a very flexible software keyboard that allows you to make new layouts from scratch wherever you like. Sadly it costs more than the physical keyboard that I use daily on my main Linux box. That's right, a software implementation of a keyboard costs more than a physical keyboard that had an actual tangible reproduction cost. I'm gonna give Skulltag a try and set the accel to turn and see if it is functional.
  8. Yes, you are still viewing The Dark Mod Forums I've just finished the upgrade of our IPB Board Forums to the latest release. Packed with new features, rewritten code and all that. Have a look around. The skin is currently the default one, but will sooner or later be converted to a darker skin, to fit the Dark Mod universe. Also note that the forums have been moved from http://modetwo.net/darkmod to it's own sub-domain: http://forums.thedarkmod.com - all forum links will still work tho, thanks to Apache's rewrite-plugin. Please report any bugs, requests and comments in this thread. PS: The forums will run a bit slow the first hours as the cache is being rebuilt.
  9. Just a heads up that the header images are now missing from the top of the forum. I suspect due to domain forwarding or something like that?

    TDM Forums

    Have I been hacked or is the site being rebuilt or hacked?
  11. 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.
  12. I saw a Windows 98 computer today for 2 bucks! I wonder if it was a decent p2/3, or just a suped up 486... If I had unlimited space, I would have lots of stuff like this around. lol

      Except a RaPi doesn't cost 2 bucks.

  13. 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!

  14. A user has a machine that won't boot Windows anymore. I stick in a cheap thumb drive and up comes an accelerated 3d Desktop, with sound, networking, wifi, etc. User is amazed. They can even play their games on Facebook and watch Youtube. Everybody should have these in case of emergencies...

      As long as it will POST and *attempt* to boot from something, (CD, USB, hard drive, Floppy) sure! You don't even need a hard drive in the machine.

      ... and I fixed her machine by repairing the MBR. Before I did this, she had another guy look at it and he charged her $50 without solving the problem.

      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.

  15. I assume that this is something to do with SVN but is there a problem or is it that these folders aren't part of the v2 download
  16. While working on some of the campaiogn mission's it struck me we could do with some of the stock windows models having switchable skins, so that when the player turns on/off a light in a given room the mapper can make the windows switch skins too! So how would I go about doing this..? [update] Well it works and its so simple!, Ive also got the outside bounce lights to turn on/off :-D Wikified - http://wiki.thedarkm...ble_skins#Howto windowtest.map.txt

      demagogue

      (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

      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

      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?
