Added some temporary lights to FM that is just entering beta - I guess there is not much to show if all lights are off in your mission...   http://forums.thedarkmod.com/topic/19886-fm-marsh-of-rahena-

Currently working on a rich merchant's manor. But I'm stumped on the attic. Got any ideas what kinds of purposeful rooms it could contain? It's very spacious.

Inventory storage? Lots of duplicate objects stacked in different sections. Crates, sacks, wine racks.

 

Jewelry appraisal room? Magnifying lens, jewel piles, etc.

 

Spare clothing room? Large racks of hanging garments.

Quick response! Thanks guys! I like the skylights and jewelry room ideas. I thought about putting lots of storage junk there, of course, but it just felt too... unimaginative? But with a jewelry room that place will have a lot of purpose!

Pretty excited to play the map, Goldwell!

 

Here's an update on my WIP. I took about a month long break from it. Sad news for those expecting my new mission but hey, look at it from the bright side! That was one month I wasn't stuck in a rut and now I'm back working on it with some new ideas.

 

Here is a screenshot from what I'd done before:

And another of the room I made over the last two days:

Come the time of peril, did the ground gape, and did the dead rest unquiet 'gainst us. Our bands of iron and hammers of stone prevailed not, and some did doubt the Builder's plan. But the seals held strong, and the few did triumph, and the doubters were lain into the foundations of the new sanctum. -- Collected letters of the Smith-in-Exile, Civitas Approved

Indeed, the semi-transparent curtain is brilliant. I never thought of doing that before (doh!) what tupe of light did you use Omni I guess..?

 

What is that long projection light in the second shot, it looks awesome :-)

 

NB. the shots a very dark btw.

It is omni lights, the curtain materials is where the magic happens, it's off a codeblock either on my or Epifire's mapping threads.

 

The model is the harbour light Epifire made that's been included in 2.05 and the projection texture is the grate6 nbhor1 added with the cubemap update, but updated with a custom falloff.

 

They're supposed to be. :P I assure you it looks proper in-game, and there is always the gamma setting.

Here is my art test room for the current thing I'm doing. I'm also looking at making some modules, which is a lot of numbers and not a lot of flash so this is pretty much the only thing worth showing at the moment.

Nice one, Spooks. Two notes if I may dare

  1. Guessing from the brightness of the light that comes through the windows, their glass should be more brighter and less blueish.
  2. It is a matter of taste, but the stone window frames stand a bit in contrast to all the wooden panels. Also it looks odd that they stand out that much.

Love the skeleton, though :)

Thanks, yeah, it's a shame that Spring's exterior mansion windows don't have an interior variation. I think a skin change can work in this case but I'm still not so sure if the geometry of the model will fit the interior, even when indented in the wall.

I made a number of interior prefabs for one set of the external wall/window sets.

Here is my art test room for the current thing I'm doing.

I created a lit skin for that window, should be on SVN.

Is interior_mansion01/window01_seperate.lwo not in 2.05? I can send it to you if not, but I'm pretty sure it is.

It is. He probably missed the interior folder.

That is an interior version of mansion01_window02, what I used in the screenshot was mansion01_window04, which is both way bigger and only has one row of windowpanes.

I assume this is on the speedbuild thread you made? Thanks, I'll take a look and see.

Sorry, I should have looked more closely. That model was made for the church in the update to St Lucia...it's not actually to scale with any of the mansion modules, although it uses the same style. That's why there's no internal version, since it's taller than the internal modules. I could make a version with a smaller wooden frame if you like.

      Hello, Since this track is originally from TDM,i think it's better to ask here than TTLG. Do you guys have the full version of this ambient track?

      Bachelor Mapping Challenge!
      The girlfriend will be away to her mum's place for almost a week, which means more mapping time for me! I'm planning a speed build. Hope it will go my way
      I'm starting by downloading 2.11. Don't know if I'm going to use any fancy new stuff. Just want to crack those itching map muscles that has gone dry and dead since almost a year's worth of no-mapping

      Fm idea (braindump)
      "Experience the life of a mission builder"
      Esentially there are finnished elements placed somewhere in storage in the game and you have to place them in the correct places, build some walls here and there, add guard routes, give them their correct speech lines, etc. Decorate the places.. all in-game. lots of fun.. 😉
      If you do it right in the end you can play the mission.
      (would be even cooler if a thief-ai could play the mission, making it some kind of tower-defence game)
       
      This first started as an idea for an aquarium builder mission where-in you have to fill an empty aquarium with sand, waterplants, castles water and swimming fish. But above idea is more fun.

      Dear ChatGPT, What are The Builders in the Dark Mod?
       
      The Builders is a popular game mode in the video game community called "Dark Mod," which is a fan-made tribute to the classic "Thief" series of stealth games. In this game mode, players assume the role of builders who construct structures in a dark and ominous environment while trying to avoid detection by patrolling guards.
      The Builders game mode is unique in that it offers players the opportunity to create and design their own levels using the in-game tools and resources provided. Players can experiment with different building materials, construct intricate traps and puzzles, and create their own unique gameplay experiences.
      While The Builders game mode is not an official part of the Dark Mod, it has become one of the most popular and well-loved aspects of the game, thanks to its emphasis on creativity, strategy, and stealth.
       
      You guys did not know that, did you?
