"Sometimes the dead can be more useful than the living." - The Man With No Name (Fistful of Dollars, 1964)

 

Yes, another concept I have but won't implement anytime soon.

Not sure if that has been done before, but I'd love to see a level not about rescuing someone already knocked out and hauling him, but about moving a body into the right position for the right narrative to fit the player character's needs.

 

A level from Death to Spies that comes to mind when I discuss the idea is Shefferd.

Half the puzzle is getting the body to the position it needs to be in without being spotted.

A great deal is made out of finding a back route and making a logistics puzzle out of handling the body at the proper time, to say the least.

Sadly, outside of levels where I've rescued people from prisons I can't recall handling someone out of a level, and I'd love to see something other than Shefferd where I pull a body in.

 

Apologies as usual if this has been implemented or isn't too bright of a concept, but this is something I'd love to see done in a solid level.

I like to record difficult stealth games, and right now you wonderful people are the only ones delivering on that front.

You're in luck. This is pretty much the core concept in Penny Dreadful 3.

Wow.

Just as I'm halfway through routing PD 1 and 2, no less.

 

Noted.

      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      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported.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 ?
