OK, you gave me the site, what is the EXACT tutorial!!!? I'm a noob, get it? I don't have ANY knowledge about how everything works! I need, for instance, a tutorial on how to make levels.

 

To sparhawk - actually, there was a movie, Earthsea, and in it, there was a sparrowhawk, so without looking at your nick too closely, I thought it was from there. Besides, I was (and am now) listening to Depeche Mode and looking over at heXen Edge of Chaos IRC every five minutes so I was probably so distracted I didn't look at your nick twice. Sorry.

 

And what is a fluxcapacitor? Bastian told me something regarding it but IRC removed the message so now I don't have a clue what it was about.

Too late to save us but try to understand

The seas were empty -- there was hunger in the land

We let the madmen write the golden rules

We were just Children of the Moon

We're lost in the middle of a hopeless world

Children, Children of the Moon watch the world go by

Children, Children of the Moon are hiding from the Sun and the Sky

What?! I thought you one of the Elders, a race of giants born of the primordial egg... Ok, I'll shut up now.

 

I used the video tutorials at this site, and figured the rest out myself by pressing random buttons.

Did you read a tutorial how to register on this forum and read it? I gave you the list of all available tutorials. I don't think it is asked to much to actually read through them, because each tutorial lists what it is about.

Don't talk about SotSR like that please... Elders weren't giants, they were elves, and they definately didn't come out of an egg...

 

OK, never mind.

Not sure about a movie, but there was a trillogy written by novellist Ursula LeGuin, the Earthsea series (A Wizard of Earthsea, The Farthest Shore & The Tombs of Autan). Not bad, geared towards younger readers though. The central protagonist was named Sparrowhawk (aka Ged). Sounds like someone made it into a film.

 

A flux capacitor is a fictional device that forms the main part of a time machine, as featured in the Back to the Future movie trillogy (what is it with fucking trilogies - why does everything have to come in threes?). Being a fictional plot device (like warp drives or transporters), I don't think I could explain it any further.

I suppose Bastian wanted me to go back and have sleep... Well, I'll go thank him, and thank you for the explanation.

 

And, yes, there was Ursula de Guin, she write the trilogy, and there was quite a good movie Ethersea about the first part of her book.

A sparrow-hawk is kind of an oxymoron.

 

 

Not really, hawks often prey on sparrows, so a sparrowhawk is a hawk that primarily eats sparrows. Or it could be a very small type of hawk. My knowledge of northern hemisphere raptor common names is limited, but I would be surprised if there wasn't a bird called a sparrowhawk, given the typical dietary habits of hawks and similar raptors.

It's all my fault...

According to that logic, a cheesemouse is a mouse that eats primarily cheese, while a hammouse is one primarily eating ham?I wonder where you got that notion from... :)

      I posted about it before, but I think the default tdm logo video looks outdated. For a (i.m.o.) better looking version, you can download the pk4 attached to this post and plonk it in your tdm root folder. Every mission that starts with the tdm logo then starts with the better looking one. Try for example mission COS1 Pearls and Swine.

      I finished DOOM - The Dark Ages the other day. It is a decent shooter, but not as great as its predecessors, especially because of the soundtrack.
