I am going to slowly upload all the parts as fast as slow can get me.
Just revisit my channel for the new parts!

 

That was a treat to watch, thanks so much!  Can’t wait for the rest, I’ll keep my eyes peeled.

I must be very honest so i will put stuff inside a spoiler.

 

Spoiler

I think this mission is very forgetable, nothing exciting happens, i think the overall level layout is the most interesting part.
The mansion is empty sure thats because its moving day... but i get why the guy wants to leave... the mansion looks super boring.
There were alot of floating windows and the door frames for most doors where just missing :(
I didnt had any bugs but there wasnt much that could bug out any ways :( 
Compared to a kingsal mission this here would be very generic and basic.

The forbidden wing has alot potential, i dont know if i missed anything.
I am sure you guys learned alot from this and your next mission will be better already!

Can we have more scary Zombie Horror maps?

@FilizitasThanks for playing! I’m still half way thru vid part 2 but I appreciate you making these, I can’t wait to watch the rest after work later. The commentary was funny and it sounded like you enjoyed yourself. I gotta fix that wall above the carriage, yikes!

Congratulations on the release. I love the way this mission is built,

Spoiler

having to cross the woods to find the mansion. I would like to see in missions like this more dense and moving vegetation on the ground so the flat plane would kinda disapear. Although I am not sure if dark radiant allows for this.

Guess I'm not supposed to be here

Yikes, how embarrassing!

Filizitas also jumped the wall by getting on top of the carriage.

I’ve raised those walls up in a quick and dirty patch. It’s not pretty but gets the job done.

Updated the links in OP.

Thanks y’all

You could also playerclip the areas the player may not visit.

Yea I am still considering that, as my higher walls now look almost ridiculously high.

@FilizitasI finished your whole vid series on my mission and THANK YOU for doing that. I really appreciate the effort involved with setting up a mic and editing vids and uploading them.

Your commentary was golden and had me laughing the whole time. Quite a few memorable quotes in there.

You noticed quite a few things wrong/out of whack that the beta didn’t catch (all are duly noted) so thanks for that too.

I hope you try a re-play on a higher difficulty.  While my mission doesn’t offer anything new in terms of experimental gameplay features, I built the loot and key hunt with replayability in mind. Having beat it once, I’m sure you could imagine now alternate courses of action. There were a few moments where the tension made you say “oh shit, I’m out!” and there was loot ripe for taking nearby! But at least I managed to build tense interactions, so I mark that as a plus!

Again, a million thanks for that vid series!

The mission requires 2.10 beta, so it cannot be added to the mission database yet.

If @Jedi_Wannabe gives me permission, I will add it anyway.

It will just throw an error about needing 2.10 for all 2.09 players who try to play it.

      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).
