Btw, this forum is much more alive since the 2.0 release.

@ Melan, can you kindly let the Codexer's know about things like "ambient light values", "lightgem offset" and the "visual acuity slider".

 

It seems they are taking pot shots at a Let's Play run:

Woot woot, also spotted : Bohemia Interactive and Bioware

I hope they're inspired by it to make good games.

Not sure if this is the right thread but an interview I did about my Thief-inspired novella just went up, and I got to name-drop TDM :

Interresting read. Personally I consider writing harder then mapping, simle because I'm bad at the first

 

Good luck with your future projects. I hope your books will sell good enough so there maybe will be a printed version of those in the future, giving me the chance to read them.

Had some fun this morning. A heat-map of the first 13000 downloads by the installer/updater from waffles.za.net:

 

[STiFU]

Awesome!!

Hmm very interesting, wonder who that person was in the middle of the Indian & pacific ocean's, or the one up in the Himalayas and that one in the middle of the Amazon rainforest! :-D

[Serpentine]

I did a render at 32x16k, but its a bit of a waste of space - alas, my lovely third world/ocean, you waste my rams.

 

Going to also adjust the point intensity later, they need to be lower in order to work better additively.

 

Edit: Upload done, hit that F5.

When you buy a book from Amazon it comes w/ a cloud reader which lets you read it anywhere from the web, so need to have a Kindle or anything like that . Also, if you want, the Smashwords version can be purchased as a pdf.

I'm old school, I like my beer cold, my TV loud and my books printed.

Younger kids (like me) don't like their beer warm either.

Lockpicking is great fun, and probably my favorite activity. It relies on a combination of visual and audio cues, and the toughest locks must be picked based solely on how the tumblers sound while you’re futzing with them. Picking locks in The Dark Mod never feels like a chore or a repetitive minigame: it feels like a challenge, and it’s always rewarding when you’ve defeated the final tumbler and the lock pops open. Time doesn’t stand still while picking locks (or looking at maps, or doing anything, really), which means attempting to defeat a lock before a guard strolls by can be a nervy experience.
