we have a hotel and would like there to be room numbers.
I can't speak to the rules, but don't forget there are models for digits 1-9 and a 10 under physical/Decorative/Graffiti/Numbers that might be useful here.

Yeah this is fine by me. Not really the intended purpose but it'd be daft to forbid that.

Thanks, vfig, we had completely forgotten about those numbers! For some reason we thought they were only in T2. And thank you, skacky, we appreciate the consideration. We'll just go with the stock number objects and leave the sign for streets.

Hi folks,
My name is Rick and I'm a freelance journalist. I'm working with PC Gamer Magazine on a feature celebrating the 20th anniversary of Thief: The Dark Project. As part of that feature, we want to run a section on fan-made maps for TDP. Since TTLG is running this 20th anniversary competition, I wondered if any of you making maps for the competition might be willing to answer a few questions about your process for designing new maps for Thief, working with DromED, and why you enjoy making maps for the game in general.
If you'd be interested in seeing your work in the magazine, feel free to drop me a private message, and we'll take it from there.
Thanks!

I got this error when trying to send you a PM: "RLane87 has chosen not to receive private messages or may not be allowed to receive private messages. Therefore you may not send your message to him/her."

It's because of the new member status. Email seems to be the only way to send a message.

I'm not sure why pms couldn't be received but sending and receiving should now be working for RLane87.

I know it may seem really obvious, but you should probably check out the first post of this thread.

I'm putting together my two custom book art files. The first one is based on books/pbook, but is full of arcane diagrams. The second one is based on books/parch, with a huge bloodstain.
I realised just now while making the second one that using NewDark's decal feature for the bloodstain will work much better than using custom book art. Because the bloodstain needs to obscure some crucial text, a decal naturally works much better, and I can easily adjust the coordinates in the .str to reposition the decal appropriately for different translations. (

So I would like a ruling: is it acceptable for me to use NewDark's decal feature here?
