The unicorn tapestry was one of the first images on a "medieval tapestries" site, and is also the third image hit on Google. Oh yeah, and it was turned into a Dromed object by Jason Otto. It is a popular image.

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

  • Zhu Yu's book is the first to report the use of a magnetic compass for navigation at sea, although the first actual description of the magnetic compass is by another Chinese writer Shen Kuo in his Dream Pool Essays published in 1088.

A coupla kinda cool ones.

 

Tangent: "Dream Pool Essays"... that's just wild. Must check it out a bit.

If you find any other similar curiosities, I'm interested!

 

Sure, that is one strange thing about me. Tell me a name and I forget it a minute later but if i have seen or worked with something in a game I can remember it like 10 years.

Is it also coincidence that the clock and unicorn images are so similar in shape? Both the hands of the clock and the body and head of the unicorn are at similar angles, and both are enclosed in circles? :blink:

 

 

:laugh: haha, I think thats coincidence

That unicorn tapestry is in the Cloister Museum in the Washington Heights part of Manhattan (New York).

Very familiar to me ... I only lived a few blocks from it a while back.

What do you see when you turn out the light? I can't tell you but I know that it's mine.

I seem to remember (dimly) that this has been around the time TDM released their first teaser trailer.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?

      Hope everyone has the blessing of undying motivation for "The Dark Mod 15th Anniversary Contest". Can't wait to see the many magnificent missions you all may have planned. Good luck, with an Ace!
