Inventory Grid

My own installation has all its bindings in Darkmod.cfg; am I right in thinking default and user-preferred bindings aren't inherently distinct unless someone manually puts binds in an autoexec?

I'm not sure what you mean. User-preferred bindings take precedence over the defaults. I asked grayman how this worked last week, because we need to override default cvars for the fix to decals drawing over stuff. default.cfg is overridden by Darkmod.cfg which is overridden by autoexec.cfg. I think we overwrite darkmod.cfg at releases, but I'm not sure. darkmod.cfg is where console changes to settings are stored.

Oh, I see: default.cfg is inside tdm_base01.pk4.

 

What I was wondering was how existing installations would be affected by a new default for i (bound already by default) versus a new default for, say, #.

Some things I'm repeatedly thinking about...

Was wondering if it's possible to be able to drop items from the inventory grid?

I was thinking that you would move your mouse to highlight a grid item, then press the Drop key ("v" in my case), and the item would fall to the ground.

I always assumed I'd taste like boot leather.

Dropping currently puts things in your hands, which would be difficult to see/control if you have the grid up. Having it go straight from inventory to the ground would be a change to how it currently works. How would the player control where the object appears before dropping?

which screen levels does the inventory grid use, just wondering so that it doesn't clash with something am working on.

eg

overlayHandle = $player1.createOverlay("guis/dummy_esm.gui", 100 ); is what am currently using. if its higher than 100 i can easily change my script.

 

if you change the thing of objects going to go from inventory to ground, how do you manipulate things in the grabber if you want to use an item via the grabber as picking up stuff from the ground sticks it straight into the inventory. if you change it to objects dropped from inventory go straight to ground then you break a lot of maps that rely on the use of the grabber, this would include the training mission map, and the manipulation of that candlestick out of the cage.

      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?

      Hope everyone has the blessing of undying motivation for "The Dark Mod 15th Anniversary Contest". Can't wait to see the many magnificent missions you all may have planned. Good luck, with an Ace!
