I'll probably do a more ornate option later. I try to stay away from silver for anything that might also be steel, as it can be hard for players to tell them apart.

Resized and retextured Pinkdot's religious symbol model to make a few gold relics for cathedral loot.

They must be floating over the table (on the screenshot), aren't they? I didn't include polys for the bottom of statues, cause they're never visible when slightly hidden under the ground level but for small models like those, we might want to have them. Since doomengine computes shadows only for backfaced polys, there's very often visible gap between model and its shadow, which for some reason happens very often. Not to mention, if we want to have them moveable.

Yeah, I agree. For the extra two polys it would take, I think it's worth it. :)

Made a sword & shield mount with a few different skins. There's also a version with just the shield, using the same skins.

They look very nice indeed, but they are brandnew and shiny. Maybe some battered version should also be done. :)

One project I have schedule for myself this summer is to do some "texture sets" where I go through all the models and add 'dirty skins' to them, and then to all the applicable models and add 'pagan skins' etc. By using similar colours, designs, etc throughout any given set, it will hopefully make the models fit together nicely.

Cool! I always like these battered textures. That's one reason why Painkiller is one of my facourite games. The places simply look amazing and believable in terms of abuse and ruined look. :) Whewn you walk to the factory (as an example) it really feels as if this was a working environment that has been abandonded some time ago.

It's double-sided, so there's no reason why not. I know we didn't intend to code shield use into AI behaviour, but it would actually be very easy to do something rudimentary.

It will just need a collision model. I might give that a shot, though someone else is welcome to add it much quicker than I could.

I've wanted to start working on 'skin sets' for a while. Basically they are batches of model textures designed to look good together. The first one is an "old" skin set, designed to make models look old, dull, and scratched up. I've uploaded the following for starters:

Made a new 'campfire' model. Not the best particle for it, probably, but I wanted to see what it would look like with an actual fire attached. :)

With some type of additive blend stage...the hot coals could be made to change in intensity in various spots.

 

Hey, nice idea. :) I don't really know how to do that atm, though...any examples I can look at?

Yeah, great fire obj there.

Would be cool to see coals change, would also be cool to see sparx coming off of it. That could be in the fire particles set-up though.

Which brings to mind, it would be good to have a full range of particles for release.

      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.

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
