Plan

Currently I am re-organizing the wiki, cleaning up the content etc.:

1. Re-organize content into categories (done)
   1. Write templates for this (done)
2. Go through all pages and sort them in the right categories
   65%
3. Add pages for all Dark Radiant menus (and maybe the submenus, too)
   15%
4. Cleanup the Wiki

As a side-effect, when this is all done, I will have read almost every page on this wiki, and thus aquired a vast and rich knowledge of all things about DarkMod, DarkRadiant, Mapping, Editing etc. and thus can start with more fun things like:

1. Creating maps
2. Making textures
3. Enhancing DarkRadiant

I am also currently cleaning up the entity list:

95%

Progess

Here is a progress tracker:

• 2008-01-06:
  • Doing a lot of work in prepare for Thief's Den release, like:
    • Cleaning up the list of files for the package*
    • Wrote script to automatically create release package
    • Beta-testing and general house cleaning
• 2007-11-24:
  • added the water canal to my "Old Mill"
  • Entity list cleanup still in progress, now there are no direct items in the "darkmod" folder anymore
• 2007-11-17:
  • my "Old Mill" map is coming along nice. The ground floor and attic are both to 2/3 done, and now that I learned certain techniques and even made some new textures, the work goes faster.
  • The wiki cleanup is still in progress, going slowly. But we get there :)
  • fixed the bug that crashed Doom3 on Linux: any script called with "bool" arguments caused a segfault, this made BinaryMovers (and maybe others) crash.
  • Hosting the TDM teaser video since end of October, that has caused the traffic on http://bloodgate.com/ to skyrock :)
• 2007-11-04:
  • I am working on my own map now, modeled after a photo of a real building
  • Started slowly to add textures when I need them
  • Small cleanup on the code base to get myself familiar with the code
• 2007-10-17:
  • Cleaning up the entity list took most of my time the last days, as well reading/responding in the forum. It seems everyday I learn like 10 new things and discover I still don't know much :)
  • Today someone seemed to remember me or Xarax.... Quit cool :)
• 2007-10-13:
  • I have acquired a new task, cleaning up the entity list (by removing unused stuff left over from Doom3) and re-organizing the entries into folders so that editing becomes easier.
  • Mapping works now
• 2007-10-09:
  • checked out DarkMod source and after a lot of struggling got it to compile :o)
  • finally finished checking out DarkMod via svn (took almost 20 hours)
• 2007-10-06:
  • managed to not only check out and compile DarkRadiant, but actually build a small test map. It doesn't really work, however, as I don't have Darkmod yet, I can't just use Doom3 textures etc.
• 2007-10-04:
  • Got Doom3 installed on my Kubuntu64 dual-core system :)
