Instead of pressing Ctrl+Alt+Delete to log in to my computer I pressed Ctrl+Alt+` to bring down the Doom 3 console.

 

Edit: I've just realised I've made this thread in the wrong place. Can someone move it? Sorry about that.

...when, while readjusting a tablecloth, you start to think you should toggle their verts on.

 

When you look at a building you walk by and think it must hav ben hard align all thouse brush´s

There is a house on my walk to work I have always called the "Dromed house", because it looks exactly like someone's failed Dromed project.

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

You walk to a large outside area and you begin to wonder how you could visportallize and compartmentalize it. The viewer -> valley -> road -> river -> upward hill -> forest -> skybox wall.

I will make a picture, but you will have to wait a while - I'm away from home until the 23rd.

This is the best one so far IMO, and the one I'm guilty of. And unique to TDM. (When I dromed I used to look at the world & think about how it should be carved out. Now I think about how it should be visportaled.)

 

Sometimes when I have something in my hand, like a water bottle or spoon, I'll twirl it a little in my hand imagining the held-object-rotation in TDM... Or like when I'm drinking coffee, deliberately rotating it to a drinkable angle and translating it to my mouth heh.

What do you see when you turn out the light? I can't tell you but I know that it's mine.

Try 21GB....

 

Heh, I only have 18gig :o

 

The point is, however, we got more medivial architecture and Castles and so on here than one can imagine, so every tour now is a torture for me, because everytime I think "hm, I'd like to build that in DR". Can't even go for a walk through the village, as the church is from 1235 or so and reaal nice :ph34r:

@ Simplen00b - I used to do this all the time when I was a kid and my parents forced me to go to church every Sunday. I would spend the whole time looking around the building trying to find ways to climb up in to the rafters. I think that's probably what influenced my church in Let Sleeping Thieves Lie.

      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?
