I've seen many people ask for questions here on the forum (like myself ) and telling that soon THEIR D-Mod will come. I want more D-Mods! I've played a lot of the existing D-Mods, but wanna play new-ones now. If you feel like it you can always tell it here and now that soon your
D-Mod will come And myself? Well I'm currently working on a D-Mod, I think it will be the quest category, and I'll release it in one or two months perhaps... What about YOU guys?

The first demo of my romp is going along nicely. I'll post an update in the news thread I made for it soon.

It's done. You can either look for my thread "Dmod News" (near the top of the list at right now) or look at my blog "Air Dragon".

Planewalker (Epic, I hope. Or at least a big enough Quest, like CC2) : Hopefully in one, two, or three years.

EDIT : I may release an extended demo of Planewalker in the future, depending on how big the full game is going to be.

The Minions of Darkness : 2020.

I object 
I'm working on... something... It isn't really making any progress. I'll anounce it officially sometime in the future. The aim is to make it about the same size as The Scourger.

But hey, the release is still some time away, so I hope somebody else is going to release a good DMOD soon.

(Wasn't necromancer planned for... eh... today or something?)

Well, my demo isn't even likely to be soon. I don't know about anyone's elses of course.

(Wasn't necromancer planned for... eh... today or something?)

When I saw the date I just assumed it meant that date plus a year or two, if not more.

Ah, and how many d-mods have you released in your time, Draconic? I've only managed 8 myself.

I was just teasing, SabreTrout. I didn't mean to be offensive or anything.

Chop your own wood, and it will warm you twice. 
I work on Dink vs. Milder 2. It'll be a quest. It's about half done, but I didn't worked at all in the past few months. With a little luck, I'll finish it this summer. If not, maybe the next summer.

I sent my papers to the military so I would get there this july, if I don't I'll propably go do my military service next january. Either way, I'll try hard to release my dmod before that. Though everyone seems to be saying this, my dmod will truly be very good when I finally get it released.

About 7 months ago, I was working on Dink and the Bonca...but it's now a lost project. In one of my recent threads, I declared it was indeed a lost project.

I decided a few weeks ago to make a d-mod as a present for my 'significant other'... it's coming along ok... I'm considering de-personalising it once it's done and releasing it on the site though... if its any good. Once I'm done I'll get a few of you to beta-test it and determine whether it's worth my while... thoughts?

N.B. I'd never done any programming/scripting before this, so it's certainly a challenge... but I think I'm getting better (slowly but surely!)

Oh, IceDomina, I'm very curious about this! Please let me know when it's published / publishable, and think of me when you need a tester!

Will do dinkateur... will do.

Curious? Well... I'll let you know now that there aren't new graphics (just ones I've borrowed from SimonK and the like... hope they don't mind too much)... but the plot is very different to any d-mod I've played... without being too un-Dinkish... that is, it has a bit more of an intellectual, oft-sarcastic spin on it, but still has the 'get this item, talk to this person' element present in other d-mods.

Mine's a little more intellectual as well, but in a different way.

Mildly deranged. 
My dmod is sitting on my computer in a basically finished state. All I have to do is add some music and finish the crude walk graphics I am creating for my turnipsword...as soon as I do that, I'll be releasing it.

It's been this way since December last year though, so don't hold your breath.

Hasn't yours got something to do with the elements DD? (how very Aristotlean...)
May 23rd 2006, 04:27 PM

I renamed the elements. they're called forces now. Elements sounds too much like the old greek view that fire, water, air, and earth were the elements that made up everything, when of course as we all know they're actually oxygen, nitrogen, iron, etc. Forces is a more accurate name that elements, hence the name change. The way it's done is actually more early Final Fantasy-ish, though without the crystals.

No worries, I know you didn't mean any offense. But you can only start teasing me when you release a d-mod, m'kay?

Ah, and I guess I should add that I hope work on your d-mod is progressing well. I haven't worked on mine for quite some time... blame exams, Neverwinter Nights and alchomohol.

Yet countless boatloads of members seem to have broken this rule.

Draconic - I liked the 'elements' idea better than the 'forces' idea. Dink is supposed to be fantasy, for pity's sake!
(Also, it's amazing how people like making games about elements, and I am by no means an exception).

IceDomina - glad you're back . Also, glad to hear you're working on D-Mod.

EDIT : Misread Ice's post. Whoops.

Nothing is changing besides the name.

No I haven't worked on it much lately. Uni assignments and preperation for my exams.

Thanks Ducklord! (glad your 'sneaky little duck brain' still remembers me...) And you didn't misread my post... I am making a d-mod.. it's coming along ok... (in my humble opinion)

Good luck with your D-Mod, Ice.

Also, the 'EDIT' part was because I had misread your post before editing (which is precisely why I edited my post. Yes, it's complicated, I know).
