[Problem Solved]

 

Hello people! :)

Im new here, I have been playing TDM since more of a year now, but a couple of month ago mi PC got destroyed by an electric storm, when the damaged parts were replaced I choosed Ubuntu 14.10 64 bits for OS, the problem i got now is that the tdm_update_linux is not working, using "chmod" (with the parameters), "./" and nothing happen, I cant remember the error menssages right now, created a folder in my home directory (named darkmod) and running the installer there not helping...

Sorry for the bad english :D

 

 

Edit: For some reason is working now (maybe some library recently installed?)

Like the Professor Henry Jones said once: The solution presents itself! XD

I believe what you are needing to type is as follows:

chmod +x tdm_update.linux

followed by:

./tdm_update.linux

The first command sets the update file as executable. The second basically does... "in this directory, run the following".

 

Alternately, in a file browser, you can open your tdm directory, right-click 'tdm_update.linux', choose properties and add a check to 'executable' in the permissions tab. I recommend the first method.

 

LOL, I hadn't read the end of your post. Anyway...

      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).
