All the wiki entries point to Missions page where your mirrors are listed so the Bloodgate mirrors in the actual wiki are kinda redundant though it's convenient.

 

There are a bunch of missions missing those so I'll fix that for the sake of consistency.

 

As for the new privileges... if you've got a sharp eye, you will notice some improvements to many of the screens for the missions in the missions database... :ph34r:

The right way to do a speed-built mission is to think small (things will become more complex on their own). Build a mission with a few small buildings. A small cave. A cramped monastery. Do the big st

Sorry guys, I'm out.   But I'm still working on it and hopefully I can finish it in the next few months.

Two months to judge? I dunno, wouldn't one be enough? This way, the announcement of the winners may feel a bit like an afterthought...

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

So much frontpage time at Moddb!

 

It's because all the FPS modders are playing Battlefield 3.

 

^_^

 

All the better for us, I feel... ;-P

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."

Hey Xcen.

 

Are you planning on merging that work with this:

 

http://forums.thedarkmod.com/topic/10003-so-what-are-you-working-on-right-now/page__view__findpost__p__260325

 

...or are they still two different developments?

Umm, I know it's late, but I went to make a Steam announcment about the contest/missions.

 

However it's hard to find which missions are actually in the contest.

 

How about for next contest we:

 

1-sticky the contest announcement topic. I found this once, and had to back track to find it again, lol.

 

2- when the missions are released add them to the first page so we have an easy to find list instead of trying to find each forum post.

I know last time I posted contest on Steam I got it wrong like 3 times in a row.

This time I announced the released entries over at moddb but making the thread sticky would help too. I'll also update the 1st post as suggested.

 

Thanks.

 

Just in case, the entries are:

 

House in Blackbog Hollow (stumpy)

Samhain night on Bone Hill (pranqster)

A Night to Remember (Fieldmedic)

The Creeps (Mortem Desino)

Dragon's Claw (Bikerdude)

No worries, thanks. I actually found them on the main page (but had to go back a page). So I posted, we still only have 25 members and most are probably from here.

Not sure if this is the place to ask but here goes. Why are the polls different from each other? In some it say's I've voted (Creeps, A Night to Remember) yet I can not see how nor can I see what others have voted. Yet in others (Dragons Claw) I can see how I voted as well as how others have voted? Just curious.

There is an option to set the poll to make votes public but my browser didn't render it apparently (or I missed it) so the template poll above isn't public. I imagine that some combination of either the issue I mentioned or authors trying to remain consistent with the template are at fault for polls that are missing public voter detail. Then, of course, some of the polls were built to be more consistent with the previous contests. Now we have our gumbo of both public and private votes. (Apologies.)

      I posted about it before, but I think the default tdm logo video looks outdated. For a (i.m.o.) better looking version, you can download the pk4 attached to this post and plonk it in your tdm root folder. Every mission that starts with the tdm logo then starts with the better looking one. Try for example mission COS1 Pearls and Swine.

      I finished DOOM - The Dark Ages the other day. It is a decent shooter, but not as great as its predecessors, especially because of the soundtrack.
