Got a weird problem with sounds: all the default in-game sounds work alright (footsteps, arrows, etc) but no ambient sounds or speaker sounds will trigger or otherwise play. AFAIK all the settings are correct, as I've trawled the tutes on how to correctly set them up... but still no sound. Suggestions?

have you set the minimum and maximum radius settings on speakers its usually 1.5 minimum and 10 maximum, and for the location sounds you need an info location separator in the visportal and and one info location per area enclosed via visportals, with the ambient setting pointing at the sound file settings on the location_settings in a blue room.

 

everytime you move through a visportal it should say in the console which ambient file is playing.

If they don't work in any FM then check the dark mod settings menu - audio sliders. Otherwise, post an example of one of your speakers. The easiest way is to note the entity name, load your map into a plain text editor and search down. Then copy and paste the speaker's properties here.

      Hey @nbohr1morehow come the zombies in The Dark Mod don't have a "resurrection" mechanic to it, similar to how Thief has it?
      They're quite a weak creature as of right now, it's merely a walking corpse that slashes you, making attacking them to kill them an actual strategy.
      Would be better if they had some cool mechanism to it that truly makes them a danger, such as the resurrection idea itself.

      Query: when was the last time a zombie in a video game was unnerving or scary to you? I'm chipping away at my anniversary submission and I've been trying to gather opinions on the subject. I'm perfectly capable of lighting them well, changing their sfx, and creating effective ambience, but I'm worried that zombies at their core are just too overdone to be an effective payoff to the tension I'm creating.

      Has anyone had any luck with textures from Polyhaven? Their OpenEXR normal maps seem too washed out and give incorrect shading in the engine.

      I tried to upscale the TDM logo video. First try:

      briefing_video.mp4 You can test it ingame by making a copy of the core tdm_gui.mtr and place it in your-tdm-root/materials/ , then edit line 249 of that file into the location where you placed the new briefing.mp4 file.
      What I did was I extracted all the image files, then used Upscayl to upscale the images using General photo (Real-Esrgan) upscale setting and then turn it back into a video.
      I might have to crop it a bit, the logo looks smaller on screen (or maybe it's actually better this way?). My video editor turned it into a 16:9 video, which I think overal looks better than 1:1 video of original.
