Maybe you can give the stuff away in the abandoned maps thread..?

It's never a good sign when ambitious authors release briefing trailers without game footage or in-game screenshots.

Hi there most respected taffers,   I'm working on my 5 missions long campaign for TDM and need some help. The problem is, I don't have enough time to build huge and detailed maps, figure out the scrip

Unfortunately things are extremely slow at the moment. Establishing a powerful team is harder than I thought, even with this nice and helpful community. The main problem is we lack of people. No volunteers for level editing, modeling and animating. And even if we do have any sometimes, after a while these people become way too busy to help. This is sad but I never give up. The Sly Project IS going to make it to the end. It is only the matter of time.

 

Up to now I gave out a very small amount of information about the story, the characters etc. but I have my reasons. I want all the Thief fans to enjoy this new episode without knowing everything about it before the final release. Please believe me! It is worth to put the effort in it, so if someone can help, please don't hesitate to join!

 

Serpentine: It is good to hear. Would you like to join forces with SiyahParsomen as a mapper?

This sounds all very cool. I hope you manage to get it done. I remember how enthusiastic we all began working on "The Cabal" mini-campaign for TDS. But after some time, I dropped out because of the university, some others quit as well and the motivation started sinking. After nearly five years of work, the campaign was finally released, thankfully! I don't want to discourage you, by all means, but putting together a campaign with a team of people can be hard. Just don't give up. If you're so eager about this project, just keep the fire inside of you for a long time and you'll always be able to infect others. :)

Yep it always gets difficult when people can only work with their spare time..

 

So.. How many missions did you plan your campaign to have in total?

 

This is a 5 missions long campaign. I understand you won the 2010 summer vertical build contest. Congratulations! Are you interested in to join us? We really need a talented level designer.

Thanks, I'm flattered, but I must say no. I'm am currently having a long mapping break after contributing three maps in relatively short period of time.

 

I'll think about it once my mapping synapses are recharged.

When you are ready, please tell us.

 

You have plenty of time to do the mapping and also don't have to build the 5 missions all by yourself. The first level will be the demo for this campaign. It contains a briefing video and a cutscene (with real, human actors) as well. After we finish this first mission, hopefully things will speed up a little...

How about

?

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

first : look on thief cutscenes

second: game that using doom 3 engine can be very cinematographic , for example look on this

 

The first video is not a cutscene but a briefing video. It is different. There are some huge outdoor scenes in Sly that Doom 3 engine cannot render properly.

I meant much larger areas. But you know what? You are right. Doom 3 is a great engine. ;)

      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!
