I thought I'd heard of plans to put something analogous to Burricks into the Dark Mod. Are you guys going to add other creatures as well? My favorites from Thief are the flame elementals. There's just something about them, the sound they make, then how it changes when they see you or get angry. How much fun it is to snuff them out with a water arrow. I love them and have always missed them in Thief 2 FMs. They're just spheres with flames around them, how hard could that be for your modeller to do? I formally request that Flaming Sphere Beasts be added to TDM.

 

Also tree beasts, um, I mean Woody Bark Monsters, would be awesome.

It's probably true that they are underrepresented in T2 FMs ... because you can only use them with Dedx.

What do you see when you turn out the light? I can't tell you but I know that it's mine.

I reckon we are doing something along the lines of elemental enemies.

Ausgezeichnet! :)

 

You know, there are heaps of FMs with Fire Elementals in them.

I think you're on heaps of crack.

 

Ents

THAT'S right. I remember hearing about Ents. Awesome there guys.

      Hey @nbohr1morehow come the zombies in The Dark Mod don't have a "resurrection" mechanic to it, similar to how Thief has it?
      They're quite a weak creature as of right now, it's merely a walking corpse that slashes you, making attacking them to kill them an actual strategy.
      Would be better if they had some cool mechanism to it that truly makes them a danger, such as the resurrection idea itself.

      Query: when was the last time a zombie in a video game was unnerving or scary to you? I'm chipping away at my anniversary submission and I've been trying to gather opinions on the subject. I'm perfectly capable of lighting them well, changing their sfx, and creating effective ambience, but I'm worried that zombies at their core are just too overdone to be an effective payoff to the tension I'm creating.

      Has anyone had any luck with textures from Polyhaven? Their OpenEXR normal maps seem too washed out and give incorrect shading in the engine.

      I tried to upscale the TDM logo video. First try:

      briefing_video.mp4 You can test it ingame by making a copy of the core tdm_gui.mtr and place it in your-tdm-root/materials/ , then edit line 249 of that file into the location where you placed the new briefing.mp4 file.
      What I did was I extracted all the image files, then used Upscayl to upscale the images using General photo (Real-Esrgan) upscale setting and then turn it back into a video.
      I might have to crop it a bit, the logo looks smaller on screen (or maybe it's actually better this way?). My video editor turned it into a 16:9 video, which I think overal looks better than 1:1 video of original.
