I think I can pack up my new mission by Sunday and move on to testing. I'll need up to three people plus Bikerdude (performance-related issues in one area... who would have thought! :ph34r:). Please post here if you'd like to participate.

 

Obviously, there are still a few badly aligned textures, bugs and mutants in there.

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

My main computer is currently a rather shitty laptop so if you want me to test for performance issues I will gladly! :)

Would you mind if I test it in 2.0? It would be great if any new missions coming out now were 2.0 compatible, to save extra work later.

All right! We've got three testers, Springheel for 2.0 and Bikerdude for performance. That's just right. Thanks for the interest, I'll try to send you something soon.

Hehe, I look forward to seeing it in the flesh young man and If need be I can perf the mission before the beta testing etc.

 

@Tyler, what are the specs of your laptop so I know how far to go with the perfing.

Intel I5-2450M 2.5GHz

AMD Radeon HD 6800M

 

and the ram I am not sure because it is shared between everything. All I know is this laptop can barely run Skyrim and it overheats like crazy which causes games to stutter, slow down and eventually my whole laptop reboots.

 

With the darkmod most missions are ok however the average FPS is pretty meh and doesn't really feel like a smooth playthrough.

 

*sigh* I really need a better PC like an actual desktop PC. Laptops just don't do games well :/

whats the exact mode of the hd6800m?

 

(I know I sound like a complete newbie here but) I don't know what the means, how would I find it out?

 

And the specs I guess on paper aren't too bad it's mostly just the overheating issues it really craps out once anything too intensive starts happening and it gets really really choppy. I bought a special laptop fan but that only mildly helps the problem.

I'll drop you a PM as we are getting off-topic.

      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!

      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.
