No thedarkmod.x86 in darkmod folder

Just to confirm, you followed these steps:

 

Install TDM on Linux
  1. Since there is no 64 bit version of The Dark Mod, on 64 bit systems you also need the 32 bit compatibility libraries installed. On some distributions like SuSE, these are included in the default installation, but on Kubuntu/Ubuntu you need to install the package called ia32-lib and all its dependencies.
  2. Create a folder darkmod in your home directory.
  3. Download the Linux version of the TDM Updater and extract it to your darkmod folder (see below for alternate download locations)
  4. Make tdm_update.linux executable: chmod +x tdm_update.linux
  5. Run the updater, it will connect to our mirrors and download the packages for you.
  6. Start The Dark Mod using the thedarkmod.x86 binary in your darkmod folder.

Yes but for number 4 I went into the properties.

Hmm, maybe try extracting it from the full 2.0 package at moddb then run tdm_update again?

I'm currently downloading the 2.02 to 2.03 package to see if the x86 file is in there.

 

Edit: Yep it's in there.

OK, either your folder view is set to hide it or security measures are preventing it's extraction.

 

This is outside of my expertise at this point.

 

Disable SELinux?

 

  1. On the System menu, point to Administration and then click Security Level and Firewall to display the Security Level Configuration dialog box.
  2. Click the SELinux tab.
  3. In the SELinux Setting select either Disabled , Enforcing or Permissive , and then click OK.

This is getting to point where it is completely outside my expertise as well, especially since i have been trying to figure it out since 9 in the morning so I am just going to have to pass on this one for now. Thank you for the help I appreciate it very much.

..but I have no idea what he meant by aoss ./thedarkmod.x86 im still noob so Im not sure how to run that in the terminal.

 

to detect the executable, open the terminal and enter the following command.

ls -l ~/darkmod/*.x86

This should output, the files and its permissions.

 

And to navigate to the tdm folder and run the executable with aoss, using the terminal.

Open the terminal and run the following commands:

cd ~/darkmod
aoss ./thedarkmod.x86

or in short "aoss ~/darkmod/thedarkmod.x86"

      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).
