Thanks Fidcal from some much needed inspiration

So I played your mission and it's great, felt just like thief 1, amazing. I got so excited about it, that I started playing around with hallways. I've always loved courtyards in castles and mansions, so I started making one. I've spent about 4 hours on this so far, making and remaking the ceiling.

But now I have to go to work, so I won't be working on this probably until like Monday :(

I always assumed I'd taste like boot leather.

Thanks AH. Glad you enjoyed it. :) Those ceilings are great! Really promising. I'm looking forward to seeing this progressing. One tip: we found that the shadows from these torches would be so faint and diffuse it's better not to have one at all. Try adding noshadows 1 to the torches.

 

I'm exasperated because I'm itching to do more mapping but have so many other things to do first. grrr... :angry:

@A: the ceilings needs to be a prefab :)

Even better, add a shadow-casting light to it, that simulates a soft-shadow :)

Nice to see the mission works for ya, us 64 bit OS fans don't get the benefit of the game working the FMs working at all. Very unknown error and there no way around it.

 

It's unfortunate that your system has trouble with the mod, but don't crap in my thread, you've made your point very clear in the other threads.

The Mod works on 64 Bit OS's, did we not already discuss this? Please stop spreading misinformation. We understand that it does not work on your 64 bit installation, but if you're willing to work with us we'll try to help you. If, on the other hand, you're going to do is keep saying it doesn't work at all, then nobody is going to give much thought to helping you. It's really up to you how you want to handle it. We're here, we're willing to help. Choose.

Done. After you update your local copy of DarkMod, you can find the prefab at: prefabs/architecture/roofs,canopies

If you guys can think of a better place to put the prefab, I'll change it.

      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).
