Yes, we'll document everything, since there is no documentation for Doom, and we've had to work a lot of it out for ourselves.

As for what stage we're at with the game, we now have everything working that we considered was going to be difficult at the start. Everything else that needs to be done is straightforward and is just a matter of long, hard work.

As for the documentation, I don't know what you mean by that. I have written a few tutorials for SDK development for stuff that I found out. If you mean TDM documentation, of course we have to do this. After all, it would not be much use if we release it and tell the poeple to go and figure it out on their own.

What I mean by documentation is various things I've documented so far like getting characters into doom, normal mapping, setting up ragdolls on custom characters, etc.

Most of the team will write documentation and tutorials about their own area of expertise, some concerning doom in general, and some concerning TDM.

Can you use sdk without any knowledge of C++ or whatever lang you are coding in? But can you still edit the editor - like make a weapon deal higher damage? And can you import 3d-models?

Well it makes it quicker to pick up, because it is based on C++, but IMO anyone interested can pick up D3's scripting.

 

I mean, when I was involved in using Irrlicht (irrlicht.sourceforge.net I think) a C++ 3D graphics engine, the number of "OMG I want to make cool ass 3d games too, what do I do?" people who actually got stuff working was very surprising :)

      Finally got my PC back from the shop after my SSD got corrupted a week ago and damaged my motherboard. Scary stuff, but thank goodness it happened right after two months of FM development instead of wiping all my work before I could release it. New SSD, repaired Motherboard and BIOS, and we're ready to start working on my second FM with some added version control in the cloud just to be safe!

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      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.
