we let you frob things while shouldering a body.
Ah! Yeah, that is a genuine improvement. Putting down bodies to open/close doors & then picking them up again did get old in Thief 1 & 2 (and 3? can't remember). That's a good feature. So I guess you can push buttons and even carry a candle around while shouldering a body?
oh btw, my Outpost crash isn't happening any more. I uninstalled, deleted from darkmod\fms, downloaded again, played through from scratch and it didn't crash. My stealth score was zero though, must be a bug! :mad:
:D

Neb, no luck. What I see is the same as my picture, with using cmd.exe

You can world-frob stuff, but you can't carry anything or, obviously implied, inventory-frob stuff.

The first time I played it, it kept crashing on "Mission Complete" for me as well. I gave up and installed another FM, then came back later and went through Outpost again, and it didn't crash the second time. I never touched my files, though.

Right, I guess mine would have worked too if I'd just started anew but I thought I'd nuke it just to be sure. :ebil:

That'll be useful. Carrying a lit candle and a body at the same time is probably not a great idea anyway... sounds like a Thief who wants to get caught! :cheeky:

I have a feeling people are not reading the Gameplay instruction manual on our wiki. :)
Oops, yeah, that'd be me :o

I'm heavily stuck into playing with Dark Radiant. It is genuinely brilliant.
So far I'm just making pools of water and candles to throw around. I've also discovered a bunch of scary ambient audio loops which actually do send shivers up my spine, and someone is going to have fun using those correctly at a later date. :D

It really is; I adore the thing. There are so many features and cool things about it, from little conveniences on our wishlists we begged for to massive must-haves like the S/R editor, objectives editor, conversation editor, layers and regioning, filters, UI and config customization, really powerful texture alignment, and recently even python script support, that it's an extremely cool design tool.
Be sure to make use of the vast information on the (
http://modetwo.net/darkmod/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page) wiki about both the mod and DR, because there's a lot of functionality yet under the hood.

I also get the black screen on startup, after a brief id logo I hear music, sounds and the hud seems to work, but everything onscreen is black.
I *did* try to overwrite my DoomConfig.cfg with the one from BASE but that changed nothing.
