If someone picks up the map, and then maybe abandon it. This way i can even pick it up myself later?

 

sure!

 

... as long a work is "free for adoption" (still or again) the original author always can pick his work up again.

 

I added that in the first post to clarification. :)

Laying claim to Wrecker's Reach after some trial mapping, which is perhaps only natural as I've been building my merchantman ship to fit its harbour and this map truly has my name written all over it.

Hello there! I posted a reply on the Crucible of Omens thread on TTLG about two months ago stating that I had an abandoned TDM mission that I wanted to share in case someone wants to take it. I didn't

_Atti_: Do I recall correctly it is a mansion/city level? I may be interested in completing it as a secondary project to what I am working on.

Yes, its that , I just sent the PM to Fllood.

 

Well i would be glad if you did, beware it may not be so welcoming to newcomers who see it the first time..Bits done here, bits done there..some things in detail some are left plain..most of the main geometry is carved however..

(Úgy is mondhatnám elég nagy fejszébe vágtam vele a fejem :) )

It's great that people are sharing unfinished work! I'm so excited that there are still FMs in the works! =3

Thanks for offering Biker. I archive all contributed maps and their regular updates on Fidcal's server for reasons in the first post.

 

Melan has adoped Atti's map. Please PM him for any questions or offers to this map.

 

I flagged you to adopt Johannes uncompleted work if you think you can lift working on that alongside continuing MD and Flanders aborted WIP's. If all that projects become to many to make complete please do consider contributing some of these unfinished work here for any mapper interested as well. ;)

Hm i think i will just do this.. I have a map and was going on and off with it..but it wont get anywhere like that..Will see to this.

 

As i see this.. If someone picks up the map, and then maybe abandon it. This way i can even pick it up myself later?

 

Yes that's the idea I think - if months later you have a burning desire to give it a go and no one is working on it - I'm sure you can go and try again if you declare it.

Setting the Scene is free for adoption again for any mapper interested.

 

Melan did a few touches on _atti_'s large abandoned map but has not the time to continue at the moment.

i finally collected the old started maps...

 

there are 5 maps:

 

- a started cellar of a castle or so

- 2 started castles, one based on a real one

- the cave from this vid

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZC1vXE9zn0&feature=related

 

 

- a second cave, VERY small, but nice...only to copy this onto the first one

 

here a pic of the "real castle":

all maps are from the beginnning...most have only some visportals.

maybe someone can bring the cellar, the castle and the caves together, that should be one mission at all.

i have to delete 2 things because of reusing them in my actual work...after this i will send them to fllood this evening

Ah I was wondering when you were gonna get around to releasing these, I believe I said I would take these on with help from Flood.

 

drop me a pm with the download links.

 

I was looking for something to do over Xmas and that castle looks so full of atmosphere I should be able to whip them together into a nice little sneak & look mission. I shall PM the usual suspects to help me with a suitable storyline.

From Johannes abandoned work please send me download links of two packages:

 

First - the one of the WIP of Johannes you like to use to merge into a FM. I add that one to the archive and the Abandoned List adoped by you.

Second package - the things you won't like to use (if any) so they are free for other people to put these to some good use as well.

 

Thanks Johannes & Biker.

Is the castle from the screenshot still available? Could save me weeks of work. (but need to inspect it first)

      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?
