Charity stream-a-thon

Recommended Posts

The TDM community has been a long running one, boasting an amount of players and content creators that is remarkably exceptional for a game in the Stealth genre, and even more so if one considers it to be a subcommunity arising from TTLG/old Thief community. Yet for all of these years I have a sense there is still potential to build a lot more interest and engagement for such an awesome (and free) game.

 

Recently I've been closely following the amazing community effort being put in place by the OpenRA team to revive classic Command & Conquer. Aside from reconstructing the engine for and optimizing the games for modern online play, OpenRA has been creating seasonal leagues to boast its player base and garner more attention in the media. Similarly, other communities organize charity streams and speedrun events for a similar purpose, while contributing towards a good cause.

 

Given the TDM community has some pretty seasoned taffers going about, some of which that are actually regular youtubers who frequently do LPs of most missions, I feel organizing a charity stream would be an interesting low-investment community project that holds the promise for great returns.

 

Let me know what you guys think.

      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!
