Wouldn't most of these have shadows already baked in and require a good bit of work to clean them up so they could be used with normal maps?

No, they are by and large very good. I'd love to see a lot of these being ported to TDM (with permission and due credits, of course).

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

Is that allowed? Since they are heavily based on copyrighted material

 

Heh, from what I've seen most are "radically different" from the copyrighted material...

 

I believe there are a few textures with obvious links to Square\Eidos IP though, like banners from Baffords, etc. Most of the obvious

dupes are easy to exclude.

Please visit TDM's IndieDB site and help promote the mod:

(Yeah, shameless promotion... but traffic is traffic folks...)

Where is it???

 

It's not quite morning time Monday in Gods glorious chosen nation (USA).

 

So I guess us rest-of-the-worldicans have to wait :/

I live here and, man...that's harsh.

 

Btw, who is this "God" person you speak of? Money?

 

I used to lived there too for a short while and I love the US. Also I don't believe in God... Maybe you misunderstood my humor but what I more or less meant is everything always seems to revolve around the US even on the internet, its annoying at times but I meant it in a funny way not an offensive/harsh way :)

Spot on, but this is a direct result of influence manifested by north American media. Which is controlled by a small minority, itself part of a minority group. But thankfully the US population are waking up to the BS.

 

But getting back on topic, hopefully the texture pack will be out soon.

Naahhhh... I was just being sarcastic ;) I take no offense and I got what you said, I was just ribbing you. Typical US citizen response. :P

Okay I will do this :)

 

btw since it uses The New Dark 2.11 patch, wouldn't it be possible to use high definition models too? I mean with more polys and better textures? Or is this still restricted by the engine?

...I will ask the author if we can use his texture pack in TDM.

 

have you aksed him yet? I've just finished playing Constantines Manor and wow! These textures are blowing me away. I've seen more than a few that I would very much love to use in an FM.

Hi bikerdude,

you´re welcome! You can use every texture of this HD mod!!

greetings

Gecko

 

Also, with version 0.9.0

 

- conversion of all textures from .PNG to DDS/DXT1 (+mipmaps) format (HD textures lose over 50 % of

the filesize!)

 

So this will make using/converting them for use in TDM that much easier.

      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.

      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 ?
