Hey Duzenko,

The only thing I can think of is that there is a hidden room under that carpet - possibly something in there is causing the glitch?

-Gelo

Looks like the curtain shadow to me

Can you see the glitch?

Yes, but very barely. Feel free to turn off shadows on the curtain and see what happens :-).

-Gelo

I did just that - turned them off on curtain01_blue and it worked

Looking at the map file

// entity 2105
{
"classname" "func_static"
"name" "func_static_1889"
"model" "models/darkmod/decorative/wall/curtain01right.lwo"
"noclipmodel" "1"
"origin" "-1546 1727 -33"
"rotation" "0 -0.8 0 0.8 0 0 0 0 0.8"
"skin" "curtain_blue"
}

You can't do that - use the rotation matrix to scale stuff

At least disable shadows on entities on which you do that :(

I must say, this is an awesome mission!! ;) Back in 2013 I was not playing Zombie missions at all. Took years to get they're scary shit out of my head. Now I just target with water arrows to torches. Got all 4 holy water left, probably more around somewhere.

So, I got as far as the colored torch fountains. Got the tome, thought that would say something. Is there a

color code sequence in lighting them? & what happens?

Any hints please. Gotten so far without help...

I should have addressed this sooner, but in more recent versions of TDM, there's a common dmap problem with stairs which is present inside the City Watch station. I've attached the screenshot to show what I mean. Also, maybe add in-game subtitles for this mission and A House of Locked Secrets.

I played the crap out of that mission, never saw that.

Did you try deleting and redownloading the mission?

I always assumed I'd taste like boot leather.

I believe dmap bug was introduced in 2.07 or later and was fixed in 2.10. Someone probably dmapped it when updating the mission to fix asset compatibility but caused this artifact...?

This also existed with 2.05 and 2.06. As far as I can remember, it always occurred when stairs were created from brushes.

The workaround was to simply convert everything to Func static. Since 2.07, however, I haven't observed this anymore and don't currently see it in my work with Beta 4 in similar constructions.

I think I mentioned it before, but I'm 100% fine if someone wants to re-dmap and upload the corrected version of the map :-).

I think the version is fine (sort of) if you don't dmap before play, or dmap with 2.10 or later. I'm investigating subtitle software, so if I understand how to do that I could give that a shot. And I see the mission has no EFX yet?

All set! The fixed mission is now in the downloader. :)

Sub-titles need to be manually created. If @Moonbo gives the go-ahead, I suppose a team member could create them for him?

Moonbo already consented to having subtitles created. ;)  It's a go :)

If anyone wants to re-dmap the file and upload it to the official server you have my blessing :-). Same w/ subtitles.

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
