It seems the tdm_update.linux does not work on 64bit Linux:

 

Can't load '/usr/lib/perl/5.10/auto/IO/IO.so' for module IO: /usr/lib/perl/5.10/auto/IO/IO.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64 at /usr/lib/perl/5.10/DynaLoader.pm line 196.
at /usr/share/perl5/PAR/Heavy.pm line 82

 

My idea was that I first update from v1.01 to v1.02, then join the swarm.

 

Interestingly enough, compiling the updater on my 64bit machine, then running it doesn't work either, it auto-updates itself, then exits:

All done, your TDM installation is up-to-date. Enjoy!

 

Hm.

Ok, I added a "--noselfupdate" option to tdm_update and also made it print "please re-run tdm_update" on both linux and windows (on windows it should automatically restart itself, so the message will pass by, then the update finishes).

 

The compiled new version (running on 64bit) is here:

You need to download, extract and then tdm_update.linux it into your 1.01 darkmod directory (or an empty directory), then run:

 

./tdm_update.linux --noselfupdate

 

It should work then, if you encounter any problems, please post here.

On my PC (OpenSUSE 11.2 x64) updater works well.

 

Could you please post the output of "perl -V"? Thanx!

Doesn't work for me.

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!
