I've reduced the value of the footdragging at least five times and the chains thrice. Not sure when the most recent change was.

 

If you're using a Creative card make sure that the "SVM" and "CMSS 3D" options are disabled in the Creative control options thingy, I know a few laptop guys ship volume normalization filtering software with them, but I doubt you'd be doing it on that. I'd also suggest disable EAX ingame while you test, I notice that makes things illogically loud or distant sounding even in test maps with no locale info.

 

One day I'll figure out why people want to blanket filter output, one day :/

The foot-dragging of the zombie is supposed to be unnerving, so a job well done, I guess! ;) And there are zombies without it, as well as skeletons...

 

I have more problems with the revenants - something about the voice/effect set is still off, and it sounds cobbled together, disjointed... Which I guess it must be. I realise it is a lot harder than even human sets, but one day, at the second coming of Our Lord Eric Brosius, please ask him to do a revenant set for you. :ph34r:

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

Ok, I made a version with toned down collar. Add a couple skins, and we have a slightly more versatile character that would make a decent blacksmith, miner, or inventor engineer.

 

That looks good, I like his "sad frown" face, it makes you think of a hard day and a lot of work.

No, the zombies have an entirely different skeleton, so animations can't be shared between them.

 

Damn! That's a real downer - I'm a huge fan of the undead and was hoping it was going to be just a retexturing job to open up the whole City for undead shenanigans!

"No proposition Euclid wrote,

No formulae the text-books know,

Will turn the bullet from your coat,

Or ward the tulwar's downward blow

Strike hard who cares—shoot straight who can—

The odds are on the cheaper man."

 

From 'Arithmetic on the Frontier' by Rudyard Kipling

      The FAQ wiki is almost a proper FAQ now. Probably need to spin-off a bunch of the "remedies" for playing older TDM versions into their own article.

      Was checking out old translation packs and decided to fire up TDM 1.07. Rightful Property with sub-20 FPS areas yay! ( same areas run at 180FPS with cranked eye candy on 2.12 )

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      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!
