Can't see downloaded mission


Riper

Recommended Posts

From within game down loader would not work kept saying can not connect to server?? So i downloaded from websites and it works fine. I think this started when I plugged in a thumb drive into my PC and it changed the drive letter of my passport solid state hard drive where I keep the Darkmod. If this is the case how do I correct it?

Yesterday there are problems with one of the download server.

(more info see: http://forums.thedarkmod.com/topic/19621-can-not-download-new-missions/)

Please check if you can download the mission again.

 

If that dont work, please check inside the fm-folder inside your tdm folder.

If there is a folder named to that mission then check the content in the fm folder the file "missions.tdminfo".

Then remove the folder inside the fm folder and download the mission again from the mission manager.

And to prevent some write errors, give everyone write acces to the tdm folder

(rightclick on tdm folder > properties > security > edit > users > full access)

it didn't help

 

in game download only puts the file into fm-folder but doesn't create a folder for the mission

 

the only thing I noticed is that the mission in the in-game downloader is 23mb but the actual file is only 13mb, but I'm not sure if that's because it's packed

I try it myself and got the same problem.

 

Mission CoS1: Pearls and Swine needs to repacked on the download mirror.

Fm manager only downloaded only the pk4 file and didnt create a folder for it.

And the content of the pk4 is not structured following the darkmod rules.

 

But its easy to fix that. Unpack the pk4, move the content outside cos1_pearlsnswine folder and pack the files again.

Tried it a day ago and reproduced the problem.

Please, could someone familiar with mission manager do this?

I see that I have permissions to do it myself, but since I have never done it, I would need considerable time to do it without breaking more stuff :laugh:

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
