nbohr1more 2023 Report post Posted September 6, 2017 ERH+ I played a little last night. It's awe inspiring. My only issue was that I couldn't see my inventory to cycle it with the helmet on.I was testing on SVN so I'll double-check on 2.05. This is probably suffering some sorta beta-test paradox. It looks so good that nobody wants to spoil it for themselves by beta-testing. 1 Quote Please visit TDM's IndieDB site and help promote the mod: http://www.indiedb.com/mods/the-dark-mod (Yeah, shameless promotion... but traffic is traffic folks...)

ERH+ 655 Report post Posted September 6, 2017 @nbohr1more, yes this helmet overlay is somehow immune to overlay's level (100 not enough?) and you even have to blindly circle inventory to put down helmet itself. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nohcelf 25 Report post Posted September 15, 2017 Hello, I have almost finish my very first room for my first FM. I need to monsterclip the room and test if AI is able to walk around but I have at least 32x32 spaces between stuff... Should work if I'm not wrong. 3 screenshots : Any comments are welcome ! ++ 14 Quote Nohcelf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dragofer 1214 Report post Posted September 15, 2017 (My phone screen is dark so I can't make out details too well but) that room looks very good, full of detail and good composition - things fit together well. I can see you like using lavish amounts of entities just like me - that's all well and good now, but if you later want to make missions of above-average size you'd need to get into the habit of using your 7000 entities more effectively. On the topic of monster clip, AIs actually need more than 32x32 units of space to move, I use 33x33. You can create a 33x33 test brush to measure the width. 1 Quote FM: One Step Too Far | FM: Down by the Riverside | FM: Perilous Refuge | Dragofer's Stuff | Dragofer's Scripting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obsttorte 1473 Report post Posted October 5, 2017 "The weather outside is frightful, but the snow is so delightful ... " Nice one as always, Goldwell. The only thing that looks odd are those angled fences on that roof in the center of the image. A sheared patch with a suitable fence decal might look better.

Melan 1806 Report post Posted October 5, 2017 Nice one, Goldwell! (Those "soft shadows" are actually a light shader. Not there yet.) Quote 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.

MirceaKitsune 172 Report post Posted October 5, 2017 Nice one, Goldwell! (Those "soft shadows" are actually a light shader. Not there yet.) Ahhh... fair enough. Yeah a textured shadow makes more sense for emulating that sort of lamp. I saw another screenshot of real soft shadows being worked on though, so it's definitely getting there Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HMart 290 Report post Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) Very nice Goldwell, but your map does remind me that TDM needs a better snow material (perhaps a shader), i just hope that after the GLSL render is done i will be able to donate one (no promises), i'm learning GLSL shading for my game, for example one that "sparkles" a little as the player walks around, also those roofs need something to break the edges perhaps some ice spikes/ ice stalactites. I would also use some deformed patch's with the snow material applied to break the flatness of the snow along the roof surface, like we do to ground surfaces. something like this:Just my two cents.
