Upcoming & Abandoned FMs List

[SinisterShadow]

If it's mainly a camvator mission, consider putting this into a movie cut scene between the two missions instead.

[intruder]

Those "cutscenes" were part of the missions scripting. The mission does "technical" work without them, but makes no sense in terms of "story".

If I would put the story of that mission into a movie, it would be a big one, at least 5 minutes ... but then the problem would be a huge file. There are 5 other briefing and cutscene movies already in the archiv and it has a size of ~ 165MB.
Another movie with this size would blow up the filesize
This mission was some kind of experiment which seemed to work in the first place ... but as the LGS tutorial said: Don't cross the beams
After all, it ain't that bad ... working on this series for 2 years now, it is about time to finish it and move onto something new

[sNeaksieGarrett]

The Phantom, please add my mission to the upcoming list:

Lord Bafford's Manor Redux
Estimated release date: Probably this month, or early next month.
Progress: Almost done
Version: First release

I also noticed there is no author entry for myself on the front page.

[PotatoGuy]

Exciting...

[Yandros]

I also noticed there is no author entry for myself on the front page.

That's only because he didn't know of any active missions you were working on... and now he does!

[The Phantom]

Exactly. I haven't read/heard anything from you, Sneaksie

Please update your post with all the info required, listed here (under 2):

True, but you have authors' stuff from previous FMs up there, so I kind of feel this thread is a list of FM authors in general, not just upcoming FMs.

[Albert]

In that- a case, I tink we should just reverse the order of dish here tread.

[The Phantom]

True, but you have authors' stuff from previous FMs up there, so I kind of feel this thread is a list of FM authors in general, not just upcoming FMs.

Every author mentioned in this list is an author with a mission in progress (except those who's mission was recently released, and who's mention will remain temporarily). I don't know what you mean with "author's stuff from previous FMs"!?

Got your PM with updated info. It will be added in the coming update.

[sNeaksieGarrett]

You know, the name, mission he /she is working on (or maybe nothing at the moment), and past FMs made. Nevermind, it's your thread so I should just shut my mouth about it.


Thank you

[Cardia]

My new mission "Melancholy in porto" is 80 % done, probably two weeks should do it to finish it.

[Yandros]

You know, the name, mission he /she is working on (or maybe nothing at the moment), and past FMs made.

Sneaksie, he includes past missions made by every author in the list, but you have to have a known mission in progress to be on the list.

[The Phantom]

My new mission "Melancholy in porto" is 80 % done, probably two weeks should do it to finish it.

I'll continue to refer to the rules & regulations post post, especially point 2 .
Please update your post, cardia.

[sNeaksieGarrett]

Yandros, I realized that... that's why I crossed out a portion of my post.

[pwyll]

I think that someone should make TDS FM using the map Inferno from Counter-Strike. Just add some guards, rooms, torches and loot.

LBMR should be labeled in progress for now, instead of 90%.

[pwyll]

Savar is working on a TDS mission, entitled "The Secret Room". It will be the forth part of his campaign about Keeper Enforcers.

[The Phantom]

Sounds good. Ask him to send/post the info, pwyll.

There are only 2 TDS projects listed at the moment, so more are always welcome.

[The Watcher]

As a vague update: Shadowed Mayfield is currently languishing in my TODO pile somewhat, as work is kicking my proverbial posterior like a triple-footed electric bottom kicker machine.

Things will hopefully slack off a bit after the students have been back for a couple of weeks (at which point, I'll have either managed to get everything done and working, or died from exhaustion and bashing my head on the desk too much), so October should see some real updates.

[sNeaksieGarrett]

Phantom, when you have the time, can you please change the following

Current status: both in progress (HSD - ca. 80% complete, LBMR - ca. 90% complete)
Latest news: http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthrea...32#post1896332
Estimated release date: HSD - unknown ; LBMR - Augustus/September 2009

to this:

Current status: Very slow progress (HSD -80% complete(?), LBMR - unknown)
Estimated release date: HSD - unknown ; LBMR - unknown

Unfortunately, with school, I don't have the time nor the motivation (and I've got other games to play) anymore to work very much on any thief stuff. Sorry everyone. T'would be dishonest for me to say that LBMR is close to completion, especially after the poll I did in this forum. (Now I have even more work to do on it.) I know it might cause disappointment, but I'd rather not lie about the status. As far as Haunt Stadium Deluxe, this one is definitely closer to release than LBMR, and as such will be completed before LBMR. (However, I don't know when it'll be done.)

[The Phantom]

Thanks for the news, folks!
