That's a great roofline. Keep working!

Hey fellow taffers. I'm working on a mansion mission right now with a little twist at the end, but it's a secret.

It's still heavy WIP as I'm familiarizing myself with Dark Radiant and its particularities but I consider geometry as 75% done.

Pretty mind blowing for a first post Skacky! Do you have experience with other level editors / DromEd?

No formulae the text-books know,

Will turn the bullet from your coat,

Or ward the tulwar's downward blow

Strike hard who cares—shoot straight who can—

Damn looking at that post I feel embarassed that I haven't got more progress to show on my first FM for the past month (been lazy as hell lately).

 

I have a feeling this isn't your first rodeo, shacky. you are my kinda lurker. busting out on the scene with a beautiful almost-full FM ready to go. :wub: welcome to the forums.

Skacky,that looks gorgeous! And pretty damn fine for a first post :wub:

 

Only a few remarks:

 

* Please turn on anti-aliasing in the menu. 2x or 4x should be enough. It makes TDM look much much better :)

* Who is gonna light/extinguish all these in high-and-impossible to reach locations? Don't tell me somebody with a very long ladder goes round each evening and refills the oillamps :D

Welcome! Good shots! :)

Thanks everyone. :)

Yeah I've been working with Hammer for quite some time now (9 years if I recall) and I know a bit about the Unreal Editor. It's my first time working with Dark Radiant though, even if I worked briefly with GTK Radiant 4 or 5 years ago.

 

Sorry about the antialiasing, I forgot to turn it on when I took the pictures. And concerning the lights up above, there is actually a ladder against a wall for a servant to light them. And he hates his job. :P

:laugh: Classic, poor fellow probably needs a vacation.

I always assumed I'd taste like boot leather.

Have you released anything for singleplayer using these editors? I'd be interested in checking those out.

Except for some levels in E.Y.E (which is not released yet), I never released any singleplayer maps. All my levels were for multiplayer games/mods (Half-Life, Natural Selection, Team Fortress 2, Half-Life 2 Deathmatch, etc...).

I designed some singleplayer levels before but I never publicly released them as they were pretty rough and just tests with entity setups, environment prototypes or effects.

What did you do for TF2? I've probably played it. I play customs a lot and have done some myself (koth_sandvich is one;) )

 

I'm also working on keybinds that match hammer, but space bar can't be used (camera control in Hammer).

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
