Thanks for the interest. Unfortunately, that data was lost in a crash. I got the file back at some point but it was corrupted beyond hope; several people tried helping get it back but for naught.....I did make backups of my work, but they were on the same hard disk that crashed.
I haven't been on the forums for a long time - since that loss, in fact. Good to know people are still FMing though.

More bad news.
It's uncertain if Tomi, author of Deadly Darkness and Profane Ascension, will finish the (

This is a part of the PM i received from him.

Hello there, thanks for your message! :)
Nope, I haven't been working on any of my FMs for ages, I wish I could finish them one day but I'm not sure if that'll ever happen.
The funny thing is that I've done almost all the building (architecture and stuff) in my missions, I would only have to think of a new storyline, make some scripted events, and then add the room brushes (if you know what they are) and do some play testing. But that's the most difficult and usually the most boring part of mission making. :erg:
Years ago I was planning an ambitious 3-mission campaign, but like always my plans were a bit
too ambitious again. Even after Deadly Darkness and Profane Ascension I couldn't realise that just a simple mission takes ages to make, and 3 missions would take aaaaaages.
I've been thinking of getting back to DromEd and my missions recently, but for some reason I've been having some trouble getting DromEd to run properly. I should be able to fix that, but I'm not sure if I
really have enough time and interest for this anymore. It'd be a shame to just throw away those missions that I've been working on for so long though... :confused:
Maybe I'll just think of some very simple story and release them as simple separate missions... That would also be a bit disappointing though because I had some really nice plans, but I don't think I could ever finish the whole campaign anymore...

"Eternal Candle" is progressing. 25 - 30% is done. Architecture part of work is finished, now I'm placing the plot elements (and fighting with technical problems).

While updating my release date, you should have also changed the name from RotBK to Dance With The Dead. Of course, it probably would have helped if I had let you know of that change some way other than simply changing my preview thread which has now scrolled off the front page. :D

Not to be confused with the
Dancing with the Dead campaign by Gregorius.

"Eternal Candle" is still progressing. Hiding loot now.
All general technical problems are solved with great help of forum's members (you know who you are!). Thanks!
About 60% done. Maybe more (who knows exactly?).
