I was looking at my gamecollection closet.

And noticed that i dont have a gamedisc for TDM.

I want to create one.

So People can add this dvd in their collection and use it like a backup.

 

So I created a data collection.

I hope you can help me to create this object.

The only things are missing is a cover for jewelcase and your opinions.

Let me know what your think about this one.

 

You can find a list of the collection in the spoiler

 

 

 

 Volume in drive D is Data
 Volume Serial Number is 7E06-7A85

Is the intention that the DVD will be burned/stamped and then sent to people by post (perhaps to get around low bandwidth limits in certain parts of the world), or just made available as an ISO image for download?

 

If it's the latter, I suspect many people will wonder what benefit it provides over directly downloading the specific things you are interested in and then burning them to whatever backup medium you find most comfortable (which might be an optical disk, USB stick or some kind of network-attached storage). Although I personally like optical media for backup, it doesn't seem to be all that popular these days, and if you're going to download an ISO just to extract files from it manually, surely you might as well just download the mod in the usual way?

 

On the other hand, having the DVD commercially produced and then sent to people who might be living in areas with low internet bandwidth might be greatly appreciated by those users, but I have no idea what the costs involved would be (I seem to recall Ubuntu used to offer such disks, but I don't think they are offering them any more).

It might be cool if someone made some good box art. In my younger days I might have even printed it out on cardboard stock and made my own box, in addition to jewelbox and CD art, but these days I'd be content with just having an image of it in my TDM fodder folder.

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

I imagined and scribbled my own back-cover, using the thief 3 dvd-backcover as an example.

(now i only need a better title and screenshots)

 

See the attached sample.

But i think other people can do better.

I recommend using hard disks as backup medium. They are more cost efficient and a lot faster than DVDs.

Just rember to always have at least two backups and copy the backups once per year from one medium to another to keep the data from fading away (both are good advice for backups on any medium, not only hard disks).

I succesfully downloaded the content of our wiki, using wget. (including working offline links)

wget -k -p -r -R '*Special*' -R '*Help*' -E http://wiki.thedarkmod.com
After a wait of 4 hours, its downloaded in a folder with 1,17 GB as foldersize.(and zipped its 760 mb)

When all the files are downloaded, the startpage is "index.php@title=Main_Page.html.html"

      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 ?

      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?
