[Official Missions]

Two of the three were by team-members.

Ah, okay. I didn't know that, so thanks.

[Official Missions]

I thought those were made by fans, not the actual team?

[Official Missions]

After the prodigious achievement of making such a fantastic mod, is the Dark Mod team planning on making any official missions?

 

I know about the two showcase demos and the training mission, but are you guys going to make a proper missions, story and all?

[Installing the Dark Mod]

The temp folder solution worked, so yay.

 

Thanks guys!

 

Also, from what I've seen of the mod, I'm dead impressed. This is far beyond most overhauls. Stunning.

[Installing the Dark Mod]

It was UAC. I turned it off and tdm_update opened in the cmd window this time.

 

Here's what it said:

I put *** instead of the username, obviously.

*facepalm*

 

I'm sure that worked when I tried it on XP... oh well. The window is supposed to stay open by itself anyway, by the way. Maybe a Windows 7 compatibility problem? *shrug*

 

I guess you'll just to have to stick with the torrent for now. Sorry I can't be of more help.

You tried your best!

 

Thanks anyway.

[Installing the Dark Mod]

Sorry, no, that's three lines. Hit Enter between each line. (Each line is a separate command.)

 

To use paths with spaces, surround them with quotation marks, like you did in your post.

 

C:

cd "C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\doom 3"

tdm_update

 

For some reason the stupid forum is putting a space before "doom 3" that isn't supposed to be there. Don't type that space when you're actually doing it.

Ah, no luck, I'm afraid. It just brought up another cmd window which closed almost instantly as before...

[Installing the Dark Mod]

Torrent is probably the way to go, at least for now.

 

If you're still interested in solving the tdm_update problem, try:

 

1. Run Command Prompt. On Windows XP you could do that with Start->Run->cmd, though I'm not sure how to do it on Win7.

2. Type:

C:
cd \Games\Doom3
tdm_update

Where "C:\Games\Doom3" is the path you installed Doom 3 to.

 

That should give you time to read the error message. Post it here if you're not sure what it means.

How would I type that out? Would it all be on one line, or what? Also, the folder location is "C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\doom 3", and I can never remember how to do spaces in command prompt...

 

I managed to read it again, and it said "Unable to locate URL" at the beginning.

 

EDIT: thanks for your help, by the way.

[Installing the Dark Mod]

I searched before posting, but most of the results were either about the Doom patch or the level editor, so apologies if this has already been asked.

 

"tdm_update.exe" won't work for me. I've been running it as admin, even put it in compatibility mode for Vista (I'm using W7) but it won't work. A DOS-type window pops up, writing flashes and then the window closes. It goes to quickly to read much, but I think I saw "can't find" in there...

 

I'll use the torrent for now, but any help would be lovely. Thanks all!
