Guys, I need your feedback on something. I was thinking about a mini-series of notes, fast Dark Radiant tips for beginners like me. No flashy intros, no voiceovers, just something like this:

 

 

With the whole Greenlight thing going on, I thought I might start this now, to get more people to use DR with confidence.

 

 

Great idea!

Ah, about the Steam release and 2.05.....can we eventually fix the years old problem about HUD and Menus stretching (for 16:10 and 16:9 resolutions) ?

AND for custom resolutions add a dedicated window (see the brightness levels one) to write down the customWidth and customHeight?

 

Not in 2.05, which is being released soon.

Regarding step by step descriptions, we should point to Fidkal's mapping tutorial. It may be a bit outdated, but it is the best tutorial to get you started. I still regularly look there, when I have forgotten something.

It's quite outdated nowadays, but these tips aren't going to replace it anyway. It's more like "stuff I didn't find in Wiki" or "stuff I found in Wiki, but can explain it in 3 sentences, not 3 pages" ;)

I can't imagine with our reputation and quiet popularity how we could be turned down, short of some weird technicality. But I think we cross all the t's and dot all the i's, so shouldn't worry.

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

Corrected. I thought I pasted it from TDM Authors file, but it was my typo :/ The first proper video is up, by the way.

 

Also, wtf is with YT recommendation system, instead of other TDM or Fen's videos I get all boobs, trance and dubstep videos :/

Absolutely nothing, how can you be a human and not love boobs? :) But that was more like YT saying "oh, you're a gamer", in the most unimaginative way.

About trance, for us veterans of '90s gaming and '90s trance scene, it's a long time due eulogy :o:laugh:

Fresh from the cutting room floor... here is the first cut of my TDM greenlight trailer:

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jK4xJ_Lx9-U

 

I would love to hear some thoughts and opinions on this bad or good and if you have any recommendations for improvements please feel free to speak up.

 

My hope is that this trailer represents the dark mod community as a whole and can be used as promotional material for the steam greenlight page!

Excellent video Goldwell! Really good to see something updated vs outdated information.

 

Any possibility we'll be seeing this pop up on the TDM twitter account guys? It's a lonely account, it hasn't had an update in a while. :D

Modeler galore & co-authors literally everything

Since TDM 1.08 there is no longer support for Mac OSX, but with help from one of our forum members Freyk you can install and play TDM via PlayOnMac. Follow the directions here: Forum Post

      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).
