Ah yes! - another good one I can use. this reminds me I did an old man head variant in Alchemist based on the priest. Similar features but short grey hair. I must dig that out and add it to TDM I think.

 

Also maybe that long coat - a white variant might be useful. Or would that look too modern?

Very cool, I can see he would look cool with glasses, and be very useful.

 

Maybe I should next make some simple mechanics and machines...

Absolutely spot on, Springheel, fits my mental image of them perfectly!

 

Thanks for sharing! Good share... ;-P

Ok, I've uploaded everything. I made a alternate grey coat skin, though some dirtier versions would be great too. I also made a couple heads with inventor goggles, both on and up over the head. There are two entitydefs, one for an Inventor's Guild scientist, and one for a "gentleman scientist" which can be any wealthy dabbler in anatomy, alchemy, etc.

I recorded a couple specific inventor lines when OCN did the "critic" set.

 

But it would be nice to have an alternative to all our inventors sounding like whiny know-it-alls. :)

Looking great Springheel - looks like we've got some more variety! Out of curiousity, didn't Sotha have a similar glasses head for the book merchant in The Transaction? Or was that a custom asset?

There are a pair of traditional spectacles as well. These are a different design that I don't think have actually been used yet.

Spring, don't take it seriously but did your parents not allow you to dress the dolls by yourself? ;D I just keep looking at how you dress up in many clothes the characters that used to run after me shouting how they'll break my neck and spit on my dead corpse... It makes me laugh when you put them in clothes of an inteligent scientist xD. But this is an amateur mod and not everything is possible to be done at the certain amount of time. I'm taking my hat off since they look really nice and Please forgive me my first sentence I just couldnt help myself. ;)

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
