(The caves are just Blender models).īut their mod misses a lot of stuff from TDM, like the extended frobbing code, the grabber manipulation, all the hundred thousands of fixes we already put in the SDK, the sound stuff, the location settings code, the sound loss, the lightgem and and and and and whatnot.
I am pretty sure they learned a lot, but OTOH, apart from the casting system and the different menu (which is just artwork, mostly) and the HUD (again, mostly artwork) I see nothing that they have done that isn't in TDM already. You know what, once they get that dynamic level loading figured out maybe TDM could borrow that! Hell, why not merge the two and have "Arx: Dark Fatalis", with mage thieves! Edited Augby Midnight Basicly the system will allow you to travel back to previously explored levels making everything stays as you left, the system is complicated as we have to hardcode every new stuff we put in the game, like items or weapons.īut surely we may need some help from TDM especially for te stealth part even if we don't need the entire TDM system, hiding on shadows would be usefull and save a lot of time." We took a look at TDM source code to see how some stuff were done, but we had to take our own direction because of some different things like the magic cast system, we can't use anything from TDM code wise mainly also because now we are introducing dynamic level transition and it complicate everything.
"Yeah we are aware of TheDarkMod, I'm actually a fan of the Thief series and TDM is all what i play at the moment. I suggested to Neurological that they may find the TDM team willing to share some resources if asked (hope that's okay), here is his reply: Hmm there dosent seem to be an email address, so have to join his site and see how I go.īeing a fan of Arx Fatalis I've been following this one for a while. Im gonna email the guy if you havent already and tell him to get his arse over to TDM.
