Adjusted Door Handling

Don't know if this was already said so sorry if it was is just too much to read.

 

Wesp5 you are exaggerating very highly, i must say, on your critic of what i call "dynamically interactive door" feature, first Penumbra was the first implementation of this by Frictional Games, so it is indeed not that good feels heavy and slow, still worked well for the Penumbra pace but on Amnesia they made it much more advanced, it is fast and really easy to control and i must say just fantastic, if TDM or any thief based game add the same feature would be beyond awesome.

 

Second the way TDM rotates objects that you pick up is exactly like Frictional implemented on Amnesia so why not make that extra effort and support dynamically interactive doors? It also has the benefit of causing some tension when you are on a hurry and trying to open a close door, you can say this is a hindrance but is just like on real life, and i love it in Amnesia, when the water monster was chasing you this sense of urgency made it ten times more frightening.

 

I would love if this feature was implemented at least on a single mission just to see how it fares against the old system, just my two cents.

 

p.s - This came to me right now, is the doom 3 physics really robust for this? Or are you guys thinking of using animation tricks to simulate it? If yes to the later then imo is no different to what you have now.

No, I don't want this, it will take away some game play fun. Like messing with an AI trying to open a door, you won't be

able to do that if you have to frob the handle, because you'd be see by the AI thru the partially open door.

I have an eclectic YouTube channel making videos on a variety of games. Come and have look here:

      Hello, Since this track is originally from TDM,i think it's better to ask here than TTLG. Do you guys have the full version of this ambient track?

      Bachelor Mapping Challenge!
      The girlfriend will be away to her mum's place for almost a week, which means more mapping time for me! I'm planning a speed build. Hope it will go my way
      I'm starting by downloading 2.11. Don't know if I'm going to use any fancy new stuff. Just want to crack those itching map muscles that has gone dry and dead since almost a year's worth of no-mapping

      The cool part of Canonical's Snap, is that my machine can now ray-trace an entire (simple) scene faster than it takes the web browser to start!

      Fm idea (braindump)
      "Experience the life of a mission builder"
      Esentially there are finnished elements placed somewhere in storage in the game and you have to place them in the correct places, build some walls here and there, add guard routes, give them their correct speech lines, etc. Decorate the places.. all in-game. lots of fun.. 😉
      If you do it right in the end you can play the mission.
      (would be even cooler if a thief-ai could play the mission, making it some kind of tower-defence game)
       
      This first started as an idea for an aquarium builder mission where-in you have to fill an empty aquarium with sand, waterplants, castles water and swimming fish. But above idea is more fun.

      Dear ChatGPT, What are The Builders in the Dark Mod?
       
      The Builders is a popular game mode in the video game community called "Dark Mod," which is a fan-made tribute to the classic "Thief" series of stealth games. In this game mode, players assume the role of builders who construct structures in a dark and ominous environment while trying to avoid detection by patrolling guards.
      The Builders game mode is unique in that it offers players the opportunity to create and design their own levels using the in-game tools and resources provided. Players can experiment with different building materials, construct intricate traps and puzzles, and create their own unique gameplay experiences.
      While The Builders game mode is not an official part of the Dark Mod, it has become one of the most popular and well-loved aspects of the game, thanks to its emphasis on creativity, strategy, and stealth.
       
      You guys did not know that, did you?
