Thank you so much!

Actually I was led by my own spontanious inspiration and I spent many many hours on details, which I miss in most of the maps (it brings the liveness in, so the player can emphatize much better and feel like every single AI lives a life of his own), even if I made only couple of rooms.

I had some of the map drawn on paper and some plot on my mind, above mystery (which I love in Thief and TDM) that can be revealed only if player explore the area in detail. I had 3 different atmospheres in mind with tremendous ammount of secrecy, which could blend perfectly with the plot.

 

Though the area would be gigantic and my knowlage of mapping is poor, as this is my first ever project I got into. If anyone (or more) experienced mappers'd be willing to help I'd love to give it a go. :)

I currently have that map and when I can find a co-auther it will get finished.

You are kidding right, your first map? :blink:

 

If your serious I can help you like I helped Moonbo. He did the majority of the work (his map after all) and I fix the perf, make mapping suggestions so he knew where he was going wrong. And as most people would agree his map turned out quite well.

Yes it's my first one. :D But I quit because of the rate I was making this, it'd take year or two before I got it as I imagined it, with working on it almost every day.

Oh yes his map was incredible! Also the maps of yours I have played are awesome Bikerdude, I hope you can help me out when the time comes as well ;)

 

[slightly offtopic]

I have watched a few of your youtube videos of rooms you have made and stuff which is awesome. You have such a keen eye for detail ;)

This FM needs to be completed at all costs! I'm busy working on my own TDM projects at the moment but even if I wasn't, judging by the quality in your screenshots, I don't think there is anything I could really add to your FM. Best of luck with this!

Aryx, from reading the comments in the "what are you working on" thread, I gather that most mappers need several months to finish their works. So you would be perfectly on time if you took only a year to finish your map in that quality. Really, the attention to details is incredible, and the quality your screenshots show is at least on par with Moonbo's "Requiem", especially since this is your very first map. You really really should finish your work and bless us lowly leechers with another grand work! ^_^

My Eigenvalue is bigger than your Eigenvalue.

Thank you! :) Well I have much in mind for this map - more then one level in a map so it would take a while. Thankfully, Bikerdude and Fieldmedic are willing to help me out, that way this map may see the light of the day in the near future.

I just saw the "Thief Mod Competition" that's going on and I was wondering if anyone would like to finish this map? I can provide a storyline, map sketches and all that goes with the map. Anyone interested please PM me.

Did you make any progress on this since novembre? I'd love to see this map getting released.

 

No I haven't due to lack of time... My work and music production take most of my free time now, so there's no way I can make this project happen. That's why I'd like to find someone to make it happen.

That was why I asked - I thought you three guys have already made that mission a perfect gem. :)

      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?
