There's a mod that tries to imitate dues ex and system shock game-play called Wrathchild.

I'd really like to give it a try but every time I start, I can only see half the screen. I tried playing around with some of the cfg options, eg aspect ration, screen resolution etc and got no where. Then I tried matching my current resolution with a perfect match (1680 by 1050) And no i can only see roughly the bottom half of the screen :(

 

As far as I know, the mod uses Denton's mod to look better. I tried playing denton's mod separately and found that i got the same screen problem, so i removed the denton's mod pk4 from the Wrath child directory and the only change I got was that it loaded faster.

 

Has anyone ever heard of such a problem? I contacted the guy on his site and didn't get a reply. I guess one of you might more more likely to have played with Denton's mod and not Wrathchild.

I had this problem last time I tried the mod from updating directly from SVN. Your screen is full, but it's as if the camera lens is set to the right of the screen - so like, to aim at anything, it has to be flush with the right of the screen, if that makes sense.

 

I've yet to purge the darkmod folder and resynch from SVN though.

@Domarius The guy said in a topic where he posted all of his files that you had to install version 1.01 then install a 1.02 patch, so if that's what you mean by (SVN) sub version I still wouldn't know what to do :D Not anything to do with 'purge'ing and 'resynch'ing at any rate... sorry for my limited knowledge :)

I don't see a bloom cvar but I know that Denton's mod has been known to cause this type of trouble due to Bloom.

 

You could try: r_bloom "0" or r_bloom "3"

 

You could also drop in an updated HDR pk4 from the HDR thread at Doom3world...

Please visit TDM's IndieDB site and help promote the mod:

(Yeah, shameless promotion... but traffic is traffic folks...)

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      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?
