In The Dark Mod, you play a master thief living in a dark, sprawling city. A blend of gothic architecture and steampunk technology, the city contains great, belching chimneys, grand cathedrals, and medieval manor-houses. As a master of the shadows, you move through the city streets unseen, avoiding the eyes (and blades) of the city's thieves' guild, while doing jobs for the various political factions. Nobles, mages or the Church, it doesn't matter, as long as the pay is good.

In technical terms, our goal is to create a complete conversion of the Doom 3 platform, turning it into a stealth-based game. We will be creating new and improved AI, and new models and textures that support a 'steampunk' genre made popular by Looking Glass Studio's "Thief" franchise.

This mod is, first and foremost, a toolkit.  Although it will ship with some playable maps, our goal is to provide people with all the tools necessary to create their own Medieval Steampunk Fan Missions.

Frankly we did just stop bothering to update moddb for a while, but for those who check the website, you'll know we're not at all dead and instead are going from strength to strength.

We could do with a couple more prop modelers, and perhaps a texture artist proficient in normal maps right now.

But we're also looking for a programmer who will work alongside us, and develop the GtkRadiant tool into a dedicated Dark Mod mapping suite with additions based on the features we're adding to the engine.

So if you fancy hacking some editor code, throw us a line at www.modetwo.net/darkmod (forums), or email New Horizon on recruiting@thedarkmod.com

There'll be a bigger update soon, but for more specific stuff, check our website.
