Popular Post Goldwell Posted December 25, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 25, 2019 Author note: A couple of weeks ago Kingsal & myself set ourselves a challenge, to see if we could make a small wholesome winter themed Dark Mod mission. And if we could do it as a speed build in two weeks. The final result was Snowed Inn. Enjoy and Merry Christmas! Thank you to our beta testers Epifire & Skacky. Thank you to Moonbo for his briefing video script revision.

SuaveSteve Posted December 25, 2019 Report Share Posted December 25, 2019 This is great! I had a lot of fun. Expert, 1624 / 1886. Did all objectives, I hope Issues Spoiler Very obvious pop-in with the trees by the snowman. I went immediately over the fence on exiting my place, missing the snowballs right there and picking up others later. Maybe the "use key" hint shouldn't be tied to those particular snowballs and "dousing lights and distraction" hints can follow after. Surprised you didn't add the "flying loot on pickup," Goldwell. Where's the's Pat's black and white cat This looks wrong: image Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STRUNK Posted December 25, 2019 Report Share Posted December 25, 2019 @Goldwell @kingsal I'm playing it right now .. and yes ther are some sloppy things but the atmosphere is really goodI There is a hut and near that is a wall/patch of trees .. and I have been looking for something like that to surround my build. Can I "steal" it from this map and use it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bienie Posted December 25, 2019 Report Share Posted December 25, 2019 omg what a pleasant surprise! Will definitely be giving this a spin in the coming days!

MirceaKitsune Posted December 26, 2019 Report Share Posted December 26, 2019 (edited) Saw the trailer on Youtube today and decided to play this early. Finished exploring and only the objectives are left. Figured I'd help by pointing out two obvious bugs I found: Spoiler In the sewer area, the ice pit contains some black boxes on the ground. I'm assuming those are entities that should be invisible but for some reason show up as a cube. Spoiler It's possible to walk through the gate in the post office basement if you crouch while pushing into it, although it's closed thus this feels like you're walking through the bars.

This will break missions, unfortunately. Your second bug is legit. Looks like something is messed up with that model. We will fix it.

Spooks Posted December 26, 2019 Report Share Posted December 26, 2019 I played through it on Expert. This is a surprisingly good mission. I'm honestly astonished at the amount of gameplay relevant detail crammed in for a speedbuild! Loot placement was generous and even though there were stretches of open land the scale remained on point. Ditto for the pacing, both in the streets and within the town locations. I was going to commend the attention to detail put in a part of the skybox until I realized it was playable! I also really enjoyed Pat's place and the optional objectives. My only question what is the purpose of the ancient fertility symbol in the attic (you know the one)? It's the map's biggest mystery imo, one that I fear I might never get an answer to, but one that I will still ponder over in the little hours of the night. 1 1 Quote My FMs: The King of Diamonds (2016) | Visit my Mapbook thread sometimes! | Read my tutorial on Image-Based Lighting Workflows for TDM!

Goldwell Posted December 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2019 The biggest mystery you got from this mission was the penis graffiti in the school attic?! I got a good chuckle from that Spooks. Thank you! Also thanks to everyone for the kind words. Kingsal and I had a lot of fun doing this. And it’s great to see everyone having a good time 4 Quote Shadows of Northdale Campaign ACT I: A Curious Mind | ACT II: Down The Rabbit Hole Stand Alone Missions Accountant 1: Thieves and Heirs | Accountant 2: New In town | Spring Cleaning | Lord Edgar's Bathhouse | Snowed Inn | Noble Affairs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joebarnin Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 Finished on Expert. Wow, I still can't believe this is a speed build! A very full mission, great atmosphere, details, and effects. Thanks again for the wonderful Christmas present! I did find a couple of problems with objectives: Spoiler I didn't go down to the sewers so I didn't do the spider objective. I finished everything else up, but I couldn't end the mission (after returning home). I think the problem is in the objective settings. The Enabling Objectives for the "Go home" objective are: 1 AND 2 AND 3 AND (7 OR 8 OR 9) So if you're on Expert, you have to do the spider objective (because 8 and 9 are tied to the other difficulty levels). I think it should be 1 AND 2 AND 3 AND 4 AND (8 OR 9 OR 10) Once I killed the spiders, I was able to finish the mission. Also, for the spider objective, I didn't actually get this objective until I had killed all three spiders. Then I got the objective and it was completed all at once. Is this intentional?

NeonsStyle Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 (edited) Playing this atm, and have completed all objectives except for the Snowman. He has his eyes, his nose, his arms, but since we never get snow here, I'm at a loss as to what else is needed. I thought maybe a hat, but couldn't find one. hint and reveal please. Wierd issue. Since I couldn't complete the snowman objective, went back home, and got that objective even though the game wasn't complete. Didn't end the mission though so no biggie. Still stuck.

Good catch! That didn't come up in our testing. We will fix that now actually and get a new build out since that's a game breaker.

MirceaKitsune Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 Almost done, only stuck on one final thing apparently. Spoiler Where do I find all the parts for the snowman? I already put in the branches for the hand, the ink canisters for the buttons, the diamonds for the eyes... the objective didn't complete and I can't find what else is still needed.

kingsal Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 We have a new build coming soon, hopefully later today. Apologies for any bugs you guys are experiencing. If you've already started a game: Please visit the sewers and do what needs to be done to trigger the hidden objective there. Otherwise the mission will not complete Thanks everyone.

MrMunkeepants Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 this is just what I needed, thank you for you time and energy! is there a way to Spoiler thaw post office pipes? and a proper place to take Jermaine's corpse? minor bugs: really bad LOD popping of tree models all over map, and a completely white compass (which seems to be an issue with all FMs) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
