Yeah it seems to happen all the time that people sign up and then realize they don't have time to do anything, or something changes and they suddenly have no time. Oh well.

 

I think we could probably do a little better at introducing people to the mod when they first start though. Sometimes we say "okay you're in, go read these hundreds of forum threads," and they don't know what to do, they don't ask what to do, we forget that they're looking for something to do, etc. Maybe each team could benefit from a little written introduction, like "This is the programming team, our main forum is the programming forum. If you're not sure what to start working on, start a thread there and we can work out tasks to do, etc."

Yeah, I'm always asking myself what we can do to introduce new people more painlessly. I also offered this to Toro some posts earlier in this thread - I'm always happy to help new coders and take them by the hand so to say.

 

Next time.

      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).

      Well then, it's been about a week since I released my first FM and I must say that I was very pleasantly surprised by its reception. I had expected half as much interest in my short little FM as I received and even less when it came to positive feedback, but I am glad that the aspects of my mission that I put the most heart into were often the most appreciated. It was also delightful to read plenty of honest criticism and helpful feedback, as I've already been given plenty of useful pointers on improving my brushwork, level design, and gameplay difficulty.
      I've gotten back into the groove of chipping away at my reading and game list, as well as the endless FM catalogue here, but I may very well try my hand at the 15th anniversary contest should it materialize. That is assuming my eyes are ready for a few more months of Dark Radiant's bright interface while burning the midnight oil, of course!
