Looks great!

Perhaps it could be useful to add a little synopsis of the plot and/or how it connects with "Initiation"?

I'm having trouble installing this new FM. It doesn't appear in my list of downloadable missions in the main menu. I created a new folder called vitalicfever" in my "fms" folder in my "The Dark Mod" directory and placed the "hhvf.pk4" file in it. What should I do next?

I uploaded this to the mirrors:

http://darkmod.taaaki.za.net/fms/hhvf.pk4
http://www.fidcal.com/darkuser/missions/hhvf.pk4

 

I'll ping taaaki to see if he can create the link to the in-game mission database.

Thank you very much for this beautyful mission!

 

 I sit here with three people and circle around and search the house already for the 100th time ... to find the grave of the iron spider (hand fountain? faucet?). Do you have a little clue for us? Please ... (**coffee making noises**)

OK, found (after the third cup of coffee). Moss had grown over it to make less noise. As a tip, if you are a gamer: Think of the Dwemer.

Hello Dyger,

I am very sorry, I did not foresee this problem during mapping and beta. :(:(

The relevant command does not work consistently for reasons I do not understand

sometimes the gem lies on the table, sometime it lies below the table. I did not figure out the reason for that.

However, thank you very much for your feedback and I am glad that you enjoyed. I find it even cooler, that you have played it together with more friends. That's the spirit we need for video games.

Have a nice Sunday!

Jack

Hi JackFarmer,

the mission is OK, I think. There was a sleeping guard in the same room. I fired a moss arrow on the table so I don't wake him up. All spider parts and of course the gemstone were covered. You can hardly foresee that.

- stencil shadows do not work correctly (version 1)

Umm, what do you mean by that? It's like saying that lightgem or AI alert system is not working. That's a core component of the game.

Need a couple hints - playing at Normal difficulty.

Where are AppleFinger's (the Pagan guy's) funds?

How do I incapacitate Gilbert?  (I assume he's the guy in Hammer-land not dressed like the others, who was constantly walking between his room and the little shrine before I blackjacked him. 

?

hint 1a

have you found his notes?

hint 1b

On Applefinger's hip is a document you can swipe. It contains hints for his funds

hint 2

He's incapacitated (since you blackjacked him), you just have to figure out what to do with him now. It wasn't clear to me either

Love the mission - well done. Now this is a mansion mission done right

I'm having trouble with the third gem "where the windsy always plays". I'm assuming this is a reference to the bar with the music, but I can't find anything. Any hints?

Applefinger's note names 3 locations for gems and I found them all, or I think I have, but the objective didn't trigger. 

The pond outside, the freezer box in the basement, and the workshop table next to the sleeping guard.

  Reveal hidden contents

The pond outside, the freezer box in the basement, and the workshop table next to the sleeping guard.

 

The object does not trigger because....

 

...the note tells you about four locations where you can find gems.

      I moved from Manjaro Linux (rolling release) to Linux Mint (LTS). One of the reasons was that I found the updates a bit too often and long. But now on Mint I get updates every day, although they're usually small updates.

      I'd like to track my level design progress a bit more often now, so I'm using the feed in my profile here.
      I've been working intensively on Springheel's YouTube course over the past few days. I'm currently up to lesson 8. There is so much information that needs to be processed and practiced. 
      I have started to create my own house. As I don't have the imagination to create a good floor plan, I grabbed a floor plan generator from Watabou and experimented with it. I chose a floor plan that I will modify slightly, but at least I now have an initial idea. 
      I used two guards as a measuring tape: The rooms are two guards high. It turned out that I can simply double the number of boxes in DarkRadiant in grid size 8 that are drawn in the floor plan. 
      I practiced the simplest things on the floor plan first. Drawing walls, cutting walls, inserting doors, cutting out frames, creating VisPortals, furnishing rooms.
      I have had my first success in creating a book. Creating a book was easier than I thought. I have a few ideas with books. The level I'm creating will be more or less a chill level, just for me, where I'll try out a few things. I don't have an idea for my own mission yet. I want to start small first.
      For the cellar, I wanted to have a second entrance, which should be on the outside. I'm fascinated by these basement doors from the USA, I think they're called Bilco basement doors. They are very unusual in Germany, but this type of access is sometimes used for deliveries to restaurants etc., where barrels can be rolled or lifted into the cellar. 
      I used two Hatch Doors, but they got completely disoriented after turning. I have since got them reasonably tamed. It's not perfect, but it's acceptable. 
      In the cellar today I experimented with a trap door that leads to a shaft system. The rooms aren't practically finished yet, but I want to continue working on the floor plan for now. I'll be starting on the upper floor very soon.

      Ich möchte nun mal öfters ein bisschen meinen Werdegang beim Leveldesign tracken, dazu nutze ich hier den Feed in meinem Profil.
      Ich habe mich in den vergangenen Tagen intensiv mit dem Youtube-Kurs von Springheel beschäftigt. Aktuell bin ich bis zu Lektion 8 gekommen. Das sind so viele Informationen, die erstmal verarbeitet werden wollen und trainiert werden wollen. 

      Ich habe mich daran gemacht, ein eigenes Haus zu erstellen. Da mir die Fantasie fehlt, einen guten Raumplan zu erstellen, habe ich mir einen Grundrissgenerator von Watabou geschnappt und damit experimentiert. Ich habe mich für einen Grundriss entschieden, den ich noch leicht abwandeln werde, aber zumindest habe ich nun eine erste Idee. 

      Als Maßband habe ich zwei Wächter genommen: Die Räume sind zwei Wächter hoch. Es hat sich herausgestellt, dass ich in DarkRadiant in Gittergröße 8 einfach die doppelte Anzahl an Kästchen übernehmen kann, die im Grundriss eingezeichnet sind. 

      Ich habe bei dem Grundriss erstmal die einfachsten Sachen geübt. Wände ziehen, Wände zerschneiden, Türen einsetzen, Zargen herausschneiden, VisPortals erstellen, Räume einrichten.

      Ich habe erste Erfolge mit einem Buch gehabt. Das Erstellen eines Buchs ging leichter als gedacht. Ich habe ein paar Ideen mit Bücher. Das Level, das ich gerade erstelle, wird mehr oder weniger ein Chill-Level, einfach nur für mich, bei dem ich ein paar Sachen ausprobieren werde. Ich habe noch keine Idee für eine eigene Mission. Ich möchte erst einmal klein anfangen.

      Beim Keller wollte ich gerne einen zweiten Zugang haben, der sich außen befinden soll. Mich faszinieren diese Kellertüren aus den USA, Bilco basement doors heißen die, glaube ich. Diese sind in Deutschland sehr unüblich, diese Art von Zugängen gibt es aber manchmal zur Anlieferung bei Restaurants etc., wo Fässer dann in den Keller gerollt oder gehoben werden können. 
      Ich habe zwei Hatch Doors verwendet, die allerdings nach dem Drehen vollkommen aus dem Ruder liefen. Inzwischen habe ich sie einigermaßen gebändigt bekommen. Es ist nicht perfekt, aber annehmbar. 
      Im Keller habe ich heute mit einer Falltür experimentiert, die zu einem Schachtsystem führt. Die Räume sind noch quasi nicht eingerichtet, aber ich möchte erstmal am Grundriss weiterarbeiten. In Kürze fange ich das Obergeschoss an.
