Custom content: should be added to the tdm repositry

[Bikerdude]

Evening

 

Young Serpentine has fixed the inverted texture and created a new window texture -

 

1. The stone fireplace -" \models\darkmod\props\textures\fireplace_brick_local.tga "

2. Additional non-transparent window texture - " textures\darkmod\windowlamp_glass_lit & lamp_glass_lit " & " textures\darkmod\windowlamp_glass_lit & lamp_glass_unlit "

These need to be added to the repository, but in the mean time...

 

1) how do I included them in my mission?

2) how do I fs_game my mission so it points to the custom content?

3) how do I access the new content via DR?

 

And lastly, how the hell do I edit the topic of a post after Ive posted it (in this case to correct spelling/grammer)

The stone fireplace -" \models\darkmod\props\ textures\fireplace_brick_local.tga "

 

I've already added that one.

 

To add new assets to your map, you just have to add the relevant folders and file to your .pk4. So if you make a darkmod/models/darkmod/props/textures folder in your mission and put fireplace_brick_local.tga in it, then that file will override the one in the main mod.

 

And lastly, how the hell do I edit the topic of a post after Ive posted it (in this case to correct spelling/grammer)

 

As long as you're using the full editor, it should be visible at the top.

I just indended those files to overwrite the current versions. The window ones just remove a 1px line of white on the left hand side which was visible in a few spots in BD's FM.

 

Feel free to use them, else I can make some slightly better versions of them if the line looks bad, I just did a 2 sec clone of the next line

I think only Admin's can edit threadtitles. I also wanted to edit one of mine one time, but I didn't find a way to do it. Maybe the forumsettings could be adjusted to make threadtitle editing possible...

Make sure when you edit the post, you click the Use Full Editor button. It still might not work for members, not sure, but it's how to do it.

2 & 3 Install your pk4 and it creates a game folder, eg doom3\business with all your files and subfolders in. So the new texture will be in there. tdmlauncher automatically points at your game folder if it is current. To point Dark Radiant at the same game folder you need to:

 

Dark Radiant > menu > edit > preferences > Game :

 

Mod (fs_game): business

Mod_base (fs_game base): darkmod
