Greetings Lords and Ladies,
I hope all of you had a good Halloween and will hopefully have a great thanksgiving.
The response to our St. Lucia demo map has been very gratifying. Seems like people agree that we're on the right track, and we're now pushing ahead to try and prepare a beta release of TDM 1.0 by mid 2009. There has been good progress since St. Lucia. One of the most consistent negative responses was about the incidents of "rising up" (where clipping something causes you to float out of the map). Happily, Ishtvan has modified our code so that this problem is virtually eliminated (Thank God!).
Greebo also found a fix for the "blurry font" problem, making all our fonts crystal clear and allowing us to fit more text onto readables. Greebo has also fixed up the inventory system and implemented Holy Water. Tels has implemented edible food.
Komag has created a very cool video demonstrating some of the puzzle possibilities that our object-handling system allows.
As always, I encourage you to register on our forums (http://modetwo.net/darkmod/ ) if you haven't done so, and join the community :-)
excellent as always
Holy! This feature will rock you b4lls!
The video somehow reminds me of Alone in the Dark, in a good way ofc :)
