This is a great idea!

 

I want to participate! But I'm pretty sure I don't have time. Don't count me in with any expectations, but I'll do my best to get something done if I can magically conjure time from somewhere.

 

If I make something, I'll make something ultra-simple.

Uu! I just got a master inspiration. I hope I can make this...

 

Also, if other mappers want to try out the modular mapping, I invite all participants -if you would like- to use any modules from my previous maps: LQD, and all the Ulysses maps.

 

You can find the .ase models in the mission .pk4:s, or alternatively, you could copy them as worlspawn/func_statics from the mission geometry: the original pieces are usually somewhere in the map.

It's just idle head turning spawnargs set to extremes. It's a case of setting them to look somewhere every 0.1 seconds, and then restricting the angles they can turn to look, as well as constraining the head and spine joints so it looks more like twitching than all-out flailing.

Well, I might have an idea, but let me ask. Can I spawn the player in a crouch from the start? If not, can I disable crouch?

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

You can probably make the player crouch by firing off a session command -- whichever one the "crouch" key is bound to -- from a target or a script. I don't know whether you can disable it though.

I think that can do the job. Thanks! If I can get him down right at the start & keep him there a fraction of a second, maybe blind him so it feels like it's from spawntime, I probably don't need to disable it since he's not coming back up any time soon anyway. [/muffle start of sinister laugh]

You're inventive. :D

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
