Still Decay is an adventure total conversion mod for Doom 3, set in a Gothic-Victorian style environment. The entire mod takes place in the far future in a decaying tower. Game-play consists of jump and run, as well as shooter and RPG elements, coupled with classic FPS puzzle solving.

Hi, people,
It's been a month with no info on the mod, and that's primarily because I had no time to work on it. Long story short- my gf moved in with me so I was very busy with her. Now that we're used to living together things are getting back to normal and hopefully I'll have more time for the project. First thing on the list is some heavy de-bugging. On the bright side I'll have time to refine the map, smoothen the frame rate and finish some areas.
An even better news is that I've decided to chop the mod into several maps, which means there might be an initial release sooner than later. Since the current map is almost complete I've allready begun to think about the second one. Maybe some more organic architecture... on a planet covered in sand, with creepy tunnels, Stalker style. I'll see ;). I'm thinking the contrast this time can be between the organic architecture and the dead surrounding area covered in nothing but rock and sand. I know it sounds very Doom-y but I promise I can deliver something different.
Now, I have another area of the current map to finish, then I can focus on the gameplay aspects of the mod. I can't say how long it will take but expect more screens in about a week.
Thanks to the watchers, and everyone else interested in the mod, and see you soon.

looks very promising, but I can't be sure at all if this will ever see the light of day.
Yea, unfortunately at this point probably not any time soon. TBH I keep coming back to the design docs occasionaly, only to realise I don't have the time to finish it propperly.
trackd! :p this stuff looks quite compelling and intriguing, and i think the idea of map-per-map release is good, esp if theres cliffhangers in the works ;o
Hi guys.
I have some bad news. As some of you might have realised allready- the mod is currently on ice. Unfortunately I'm taking too much real life greef atm to be able to work on this. Rest assured I will finish it at some point and in the meantime might even post some info and/or pics, but no promises. Thanks to all the watchers and anyone else interested in the mod. Thats all for now.
Peace.
Dude, you should talk your gf into helping you out with this. Too bad I can't do the same with mine. I tried, I really did, but to no avail.
hahah 10x for the concern, I guess. Nah, she would never agree to help me with that. Modding for her is "the thing that keeps me away from her" :D
Working on the GUIs. One of the mini-games is done ( a pipe game, ties in with the steam-punk machinery ). Which reminds me- haven't decided if I'm using Evolution's hacking or making a new one... Any thoughts by the community about that ?
Tracking! :)
Looks a bit too "clean" for a decayed setting. Interesting concept though.
Keep it up man, looks interesting!
