Just a quick pic, to show you a test-skin of the mainmenu.

(have to reposition things a bit,..)

 

Wonderful! I really like how that's looking :) I might change the text to The Dark Machina or something else for my repository, but other than that the design fits pretty great.

Alright, I'll make a stab at this. Don't throw anything at me:

 

t413f (Also: T413f, T413F)

The Dark Modern

The Dark Mod: 2020 (or whatever future year is appropriate... 2099?)

The Dark Cyber-Mod

 

Again, reserve your arrows for the guards. I'm glad that the project is moving forward.

I will make the panels smaller.

Its possible to make all values cvars.

But its not easy to change the bordercolor around, for example, the grid, because they are images.

The borders of the cells inside the grid, is easy to do.

 

Is there a mapper who could help us, with "porting" d3 maps like earlier mentioned "genetic" and "lost city" or other?

I dont get any responses from Baal.

maps: endarchy,

Guis: hexen edge of chaos, grimm, endarchy

 

maps: skyscraper, Redwill Manor, trains

 

mod for tdm: ruiner

 

Movies:

 

 

Arx:

 

In to cerberon:

 

Endarchy:

 

Hexen edge of chaos:

 

grimm quest for the gatherers key:

 

ruiner:

Are there any other d3 maps/mods i have to look at?

Here is a copy from license, with a permission of Bethesda to Arx.

 

 

 

Permission granted to produce free mod by Arkane Studios / Zenimax

 

Hi

 

I spoke with some folks from Arkane and they said that they

loved the mod and that you knew not to sell it for profit.

 

The policy we have at ZeniMax is that you're not allowed to

use assets from one game within another game

(even if they're both games we released).

 

Talking to someone at Arkane, they said you weren't using

the original assets from the games, but rather it was inspired

from Arx Fatalis.

 

Doing something like that is fine.

 

If you have any questions, feel free to let me know.

 

Thanks

Are we settled on a name, or is that "deal with that when it comes" sort of scenario?

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

Click here for the crappy channel where that happens.

We could have a poll, but whoever makes it should have the right to name it because they did the work.

 

My concepts was simple, The Dark Mod: Cyberpunk

That emphasizes that it's a branch of Darkmod and they run together.

 

Edit. Be sure you're recording where you're getting all this stuff. It's important to have them in the credits.

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

Yes, but all this to avoid a lawsuit from eidos/enix/etc.

 

They seriously wouldn't sue for the use of such a generic word, though it's still best to avoid it so we don't look like we're being unoriginal. I wonder if, for the sake of added realism, we could go ahead and simply call it Bitcoin :D

 

Also I was thinking of modifying the meanings of the 3 loot types of vanilla TDM, into the following categories: Cash (normal money), information (documents not relevant to the player's quest but generically valuable to others), software (programs the player can steal off computers or pirate which others find of value). Any thoughts from anyone on this model?

 

Another thing to keep in mind: The mod will be aimed a bit more toward story-based campaigns, and less toward single fast-paced missions (though of course still friendly to both). Therefore one of the systems I want to integrate are shops, and the ability to use the loot types to buy items from people in-world. There was a shop script floating around... I might use it altogether depending on license, or make my own if it's not GPL compatible.

I don't think there is a copyright on "credits", considering how many sci-fi style games have that currency. If it was for that, TDM also couldn't have water arrows, rope arrows, and what not either. Kind of universal, i would guess.

      I posted about it before, but I think the default tdm logo video looks outdated. For a (i.m.o.) better looking version, you can download the pk4 attached to this post and plonk it in your tdm root folder. Every mission that starts with the tdm logo then starts with the better looking one. Try for example mission COS1 Pearls and Swine.

      I finished DOOM - The Dark Ages the other day. It is a decent shooter, but not as great as its predecessors, especially because of the soundtrack.
