Beta testing "In the North"

I started "In the North" a year ago, and it's pretty much ready to go. It's the first in a series of 8 missions, assuming I have the stamina to complete them. Since you need 2 or more missions to create a campaign, I won't release a campaign version until I have the 2nd mission ("Home Again") ready to release. Hopefully I'll be able to update the campaign version as each mission is released.

 

"In the North" depends on TDM 1.08, and will be released either at the same time as 1.08 or after 1.08, depending on how much beta testing can be done prior to 1.08's release.

 

To that end, I'd like to hear from interested beta testers who can--and are willing to--use darkmod from SVN for testing. If you're interested, and you're already used to pulling the latest darkmod setup from SVN, please say something here or send me a PM.

 

The package should be ready sometime in the next few weeks.

 

It's a large non-linear map, so it will take a fair amount of testing. 2 or 3 testers would be nice.

 

Here is a set of screenshots. (The splash screen in that set has since been replaced.)

 

Thanks, and looking forward to hearing from you.

Oh man, excited to see this one!

"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

Dont you want to be using 1.07, if so why do you want or need to compile..?

You're gonna need to have TDM SVN rights added to your current SVN access Biker.

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

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

      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!
