Also, where are screenshots stored, I can't find any I've taken?

 

In a folder called "Screenshots" in the directory that you installed the dark mod :)

Yes that's where I thought it would be but I have no such folder?

I added a 'screenshots' folder and it works, guess it's not there by default or wasn't created?

Thanks.

 

I don't think I ever created the folder myself but I do know that the dark mod has a dedicated screenshot key so perhaps you were pressing print screen instead of the TDM screenshot key? either way, glad that it works!

I got 2 * 5 points for 2 Alert 5's but stats say I was seen for 0m - 0s so why the points :huh:

Also, where are screenshots stored, I can't find any I've taken?

An alert 5 means an AI saw you & went to full alert.

The time means you were seen for under a second, since it rounds to seconds.

 

Edit. Regarding the folder, make sure the top game folder has 'read only' access turned off (or write access turned on, however the checkbox works) in the right-click folder options. It sometimes happens for some reason, and that's one symptom.

What do you see when you turn out the light? I can't tell you but I know that it's mine.

The AI is quite tough considering AI sight and Hearing is only on forgiving as I'm a newb and learning the game, obviously, I'm not as good as I thought at this game :D

 

'Read only' access was turned on :rolleyes:

The AI are tough because without them there is no challenge to the game at all. If you're new to stealth, you might want to put them at their lowest levels.

      Somehow I admire the fact that the material from Dune has now been filmed for the third time. Personally, I could never do much with the material, but as a child of the 80s, I of course know the David Lynch movie...and that movie was at least funny!

      Hey @nbohr1morehow come the zombies in The Dark Mod don't have a "resurrection" mechanic to it, similar to how Thief has it?
      They're quite a weak creature as of right now, it's merely a walking corpse that slashes you, making attacking them to kill them an actual strategy.
      Would be better if they had some cool mechanism to it that truly makes them a danger, such as the resurrection idea itself.

      Query: when was the last time a zombie in a video game was unnerving or scary to you? I'm chipping away at my anniversary submission and I've been trying to gather opinions on the subject. I'm perfectly capable of lighting them well, changing their sfx, and creating effective ambience, but I'm worried that zombies at their core are just too overdone to be an effective payoff to the tension I'm creating.
