Thanks. You are on a 64 bit system. So let's summarize the problem what happended here: You tried to run a 32 bit application on a 64 bit system. That doesnt work (unless you do things) you need to download & use the 64-bit tdm updater, and use that application to download tdm 64 bit executable. You install TDM by: creating a folder for TDM,set write permissions for everyone to that folder,download the tdm updater 64 bit and place it in that folder,set executable perpmission to the updaterrun the tdm updater with a specified argumentWait for the updater to finisch.set executable permission to the tdm 64 executable.and then you maybe want install some systempackages. (the ones we going to point to, when we recieve a darkmod-log from you once its generated when you first try to run tdm) All is described in the instructions on the wiki http://wiki.thedarkmod.com/index.php?title=Installer_and_Manual_Installation#Installing_TDM_on_Linux_64_bit.2C_manually and you can copy the commandlines to your terminal. You can find a very old demo video in the spoiler:

fixed that for the 64 build of the tdm updater, in the wiki.

thanks. is your linux mint, 64 bit? (you can check this with: uname -a) if so you need to download and use the 64 bit tdm-updater. follow the steps: http://wiki.thedarkmod.com/index.php?title=Installer_and_Manual_Installation#Installing_TDM_on_Linux_64_bit.2C_manually

and how about: ls -la ~/darkmod/ and: file ~/darkmod/tdm_update.linux and what happens if you follow the instructions on the wiki?

sure, follow the following instruction. and its possible you need to install some other packages. http://wiki.thedarkmod.com/index.php?title=Installer_and_Manual_Installation#Installing_TDM_on_Linux.2C_manually and http://wiki.thedarkmod.com/index.php?title=Installer_and_Manual_Installation#Installing_TDM_on_Linux_64_bit.2C_manually

Why i dont use Linux, on my main systems, because "I dont want to invest the time needed to,.." learn to solve "technical" problems when i want to do something on a Linux distro. (and im just lazy sometimes). If i want to test or do something on a linux distro/mac os/etc, I use a virtualmachine on virtualbox. (long life to snapshots!) I have tried many linux distro's and stayed at Opensuse.

Very nice to see. Website: English website If you search around you will find some demo movies. Like this one:

I would like to see body awareness as well, But as an option in TDM. (and also the shiny-ness effects from the video) It seems the creator is working for D3 mod mars city security and knows his skills. (files of this project are publisched so people can look to the code) (maybe its a one-man project?) Is there somebody who would like to contact him and point him to our project? (trough yt or moddb?) Some recent nice videos: And a D3 one in the spoiler.

I just want to mention that I started allmost all installation manuals and installers, because in the beginning there was almost nothing user-friendly documents or installation software created for beginners. And kept the docs and installers updated, by implementing techonical sollutions from this forum. For the Linux part, i kept them general as possible, for all linux distro's. Just pick a method and post questions about them (or do a internet search) I cant bear all those distro-specific features in mind, because that takes time. But you can create/change all things yourself and send me (or somebody else) the changes to publisch.

I updated the TDM-wiki article part: Installing TDM on Linux 64 bit manually Under this part you will find also an updated instruction howto create a desktop shortcut in kde. If it dont start, its possible you need to install some other packages. Follow my earlier post or use the notes in the updated part.

If you followed the instructions on the wiki, then we need to know which other packages you need to install. Please post content of some logs in this topic, that you can generate with several commands. (please put them in a spoiler-tag) First update TDM. (if you not already done that) Open a terminal, navigate to your tdm folder and run the tdm updater: cd /usr/share/games/darkmod; ./tdm_update.linux64Navigate to your tdm folder and look for a darkmod.log.Open this file a text editor and copy the text in this topic. (please put them in a spoiler-tag) Generate start-log and a log of the needed libraries: cd /usr/share/games/darkmod; ldd ./thedarkmod.x64 logmylibraries.txt sudo ldconfig -v | grep libGL > /usr/share/games/darkmod/log-videoreq.txt ./thedarkmod.x64 +gfxinfo +condump logstart.txt +quit Then open the generated "logmylibraries.txt", "log-videoreq.txt" and "logstart.txt"from your tdm folder with a text editor and copy the text in this topic.(please put them in a spoiler-tag)

And follow the instruction manual on the TDM wiki and read the notes on it. (if they uploaded the 64 bit version of the TDM updater, you dont have to install the 32 bit libraries)

for the mac os version, i used the manual method. see also topic post: http://forums.thedarkmod.com/topic/19683-mac-problems-launching-tdm/?do=findComment&comment=428698 )

grayman, how about giving us (or point us to) the source-code of the logo? so we can create our own logo when youre not around and dont ask you everytime when there is a new version publisched.

Nice ambient. As you know, you dont have to be a mapper to help with this community. (check how i can help topic) Keep releasing those ambience tracks under a creative commons license (and publisching the source), so people can use it.

And to create some music for it is easy: search for a midi song you like, import the midi to LMMS, use instrument "harpichords01.ogg" for the tones and record to ogg.

Valve added an userfriendly option to steamto run them. Its just the normal standard way to add a non-steam windows game, but now you need to select the filetype-filter in the fileslection-window. Going to test this on Linux and Mac os. -edit- No, that method doesnt work. You can select the binary but it doesnt show in the selection list and Steam cant run the shortcut file pointed to the updater. My steps for now, to get the tdm_updater running in steam: enable steam play in your steam client install windows-only game, for this example, unreal gold (this will also install proton in in your steamapps/common folder.) After the installation of unreal, put the updater inside the unreal-system folder, Rename files: rename unreal.exe to unreal.exe.bak and rename tdm_updater.exe to unreal.exe Run unreal from the library in the steam client.And if you want to experiment with proton, use playonlinux. follow steps 1 and 2. at step one select also a proton version in the settings. Then copy "/home/username/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/(a proton version)" to /home/username/.PlayOnLinux/wine/linux-amd64/". run playonlinux, create a new container and select the proton at the wine versions.

tried that to run TDM on android in this topic:http://forums.thedarkmod.com/topic/16672-trying-to-run-tdm-on-android/?hl= maybe possible with d3 and a very old version of tdm. read this topic for some pointers, d3 on the pi: https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=99624 (check also a video in the spoiler) or try steam link on your pi. https://steamcommunity.com/app/353380/discussions/0/1743353164093954254/ and http://forums.thedarkmod.com/topic/19432-tdm-on-steam-link-for-android/ video in the spoiler

imho, i see it as a luxury problem. it would be nice that the devs can create some code to set it in the binary. if not, i dont mind. But is this the standard method to set versionnumber in other applications? i thought you can set the version numbers at several locations, and not only in the code of the binary. (-edit- i didnt read the whole topic,..) does vulndetect have a feature to look also at other locations like text files/registry/application manager/etc?

It would be nice to see tdm on steam, because the possibilities. But how about publishing TDM on itch.io? (creator faq) And what to publisch? (we need a topic to decided that) We need to create a new version of the "full standalone" package again (as a base package), like the one on moddb. Maybe i have the time to write a installer for in the package (a simple select-standalonezippackage-guiding-installer). But not necessary for steam and other client-download sites.

trailer:

Seems that doom 3 has this too. And also discussed on the forum here. I dont have a real sollution, but as a workaround you can use TDM windows binary on WINE.

Want to let you know, that TDM 2.07 windows 64 bit is running "almost" perfectly on wine64 4-06 on Mac os 10.9.5 (using play on mac) Only the updater and tdm64 crashes on during restarting and quiting the process. (backtrace log uploaded) that TDM 2.07 windows 32 bit is running perfectly on wine32 4-06 on Mac os 10.9.5 (using play on mac)(this time i tested tdm on my real mac, not on a vm) @mac os users: if you start TDM and see a black screen and only hear sound/music, update your xquartz. Doesnt TDM start, install vcredist_x64.exe or vcredist_x86.exe (accordingly by your wine environment) delivered by tdm updater. backtrace.txt

Found a video of a remake of one of the levels of unreal 1. To me, one of the best 3d realistic enviroments i have seen:

At this moment, i can only say to this automation feature: WOW! Immediately got some ideas for it. Like a TDM-Tweaker, video-problems debugger, benchmarker, etc. Now to find a small python collection package (or one-single binary), to run scripts from. Do you know something i can use. Like winpython? Btw, nice to see midnight commander in action. I'm a bit more a totalcommander (ultima prime) user myself.
