Promotion and what-not

My Dad went to Finnland - and was amazed that they sell the meat of bears there.

 

In the supermarket he found bear soup in a can - just like we have oxtail soup in the UK.

 

When I tried googling Bear Soup to get a picture for reference...

APPLYING NERVE STAPLES & MIND BLEACH

"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."

My recommendations for this thread: napalm, concrete, napalm, concrete, napalm, napalm, napalm. ^_^

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

The whole topic revolves around Shadowhide who is trying to make us understand he's into bestiality (aka Bear Soup). While I find this a bit on the awkward side, I'm relieved nonetheless that he's not into necrophilia. I wouldn't have been surprised.

Well, in that I case I have just the right thing for you (point to "Menü" and choose a "Galerie"). For the rest of us who have a less... "progressive" taste: at least the music is good.

 

Also, can someone in charge move the thread to Off-Topic? I'm afraid that the occasional newby/passer-by will get a wrong impression of this community. ^_^

Back on topic, I was recently more or less forced to join facebook and I noticed, there is only a group for TDM instead of a site. Of course I requested permission to join the group. But I guess the preferred practice here would generally be to create a site for TDM, so that people can "like" it and automatically receive news about TDM.

 

By the way, it was nice to finally link a face to some of the teammembers. ;)

I wouldn't want FB to know when I visited the site, so in case you really add a Facebook button to the TDM site, please use the privacy friendly version provided by the German Heise Verlag. The explanation is written in German, so maybe one of the German team members can do the programming.

That's probably a good idea. FB keeps messing around with things, and I can't really see any value to groups anymore over pages, other than making it invitation only. And since very little goes on there anyway, I'm not sure there's any need for that.

Back to the topic :). What about some headhunting on the main page of TDM site?

We are hiring. If you are a talented coder, artist, modeller, or mapper, we would like to offer a job for you. The job that will gain you no money but a lots of valuable experience. The experience in an improvement of probably the best non-commercial (i.e. free of charge) game based on id Tech 4, first person sneaker, TDM.

I can do what Hexen EOC does and post a couple of lines at the the bottom of the news releases asking anyone would like to contribute to the project (etc) ???

 

:unsure:

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

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

The first and second phrases are intended for Google etc, because most people, who could help TDM project, just doesn't know about it. The main goal of these phrases is to attract as many people as possible. Does it look like a some sort of scam? Not sure, because the third phrase is saying: "Dude, you'll gain no money." Of course, most people will say "meh," but, I hope, someone will say "Heck! Why not?" and send a letter to NH.

There are several hoops people have to jump through before being able to help out, particularly when it comes to coding. I can't count the number of times we've had someone sign up to help with coding, get full instructions and help from greebo (taking away time he could be using eleswhere) and then disappearing without finishing anything useful.

 

Frankly, someone has to be pretty strongly motivated to join a project this far along in development, and that kind of motivation is only going to come from someone who has actually played and enjoyed the mod itself, I suspect.

 

It would be slightly easier, and just as valuable, to advertise for *mappers*.

      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.
