So, what are you working on right now?


Springheel

Recommended Posts

Thanks for the positive comments!

 

Springheel: Yeah, those are the default doors from the entity browser thrown in temporarily just to get something that opens and closes :) I'll definitely be updating those to look fancier. The ceiling will also be updated with wood paneling, as it's currently just a flat marble (not a practical ceiling material in many cases, I imagine).

 

Sotha: I believe the tile is at 0.5 scale, and it is indeed a bit big. Every material I add defaults at that scale and they usually look too big. Is there a way to change the default texture scale for DR?

 

I also noticed now for the first time that the chandelier seems to have a separate shadow-casting light for each candle flame, which is surely not good for performance!

I know its a four year old post, but still...

Ha! :laugh:

Just select the face of the floor (shift+ctrl+leftclick) press S and the surface inspector bounces up. Set default scale to 0.3 or so. Press the button that says NATURAL. Test with different scales until it looks good.

In preferences, Primitives (counter-intuitively), you'll find "Default texture scale" and may change it to whatever you'd like.

If our thief grabs that amulet he runs the risk of later being detected by smell :)

 

Privy-related gameplay is one of my favorite things in TDM. Few things are better than dropping a konked-out guy in there and musing about what he'll think when he wakes up. For this reason I've made special effort to arrange the privy gameplay in my forthcoming FM for maximum entertainment value :D

Well... loot IS loot

 

Now I want to make fine cigars as a custom loot item... :D

 

I've been thinking of what kind of FM I'd like to work on next, and one thing I have in mind is a level with no other threats but the environment. Just puzzles / exploration, no sneaking around. Are there any FMs with this style that I should look into?

Those models look great! No 4's colors and head model blend together fantastically. However the added realism will affect my ability to blackjack them and keep a clear conscience :P

 

Although no. 1, 3 and 4 heads look slightly too big for the body, or is it just the perspective?

Probably; the size differences between the heads are pretty minor.

As per usual, when my ADD meds run out, I vanish from TDM. I swear my doc must take at least 25% of the year off, and since its S6 stuff they cant be written up by another doc :( Usually try pre-date them, but... still manage to screw up once or twice a year.

 

I digress. I got back to my porting work:

I am running without direct rendering (testing the new AMD KMS stuff), so I tried with llvmpipe, that said need to figure out what's going on with my libdxt. So no screenshot for now :(

As you can see, AMD64, OpenAL-Soft, SDL.

 

Will be in a branch soon as I know it runs maps and all that good stuff. Also need to backport a month or two worth of patches.

      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).
