    It looks like you installed your missions right under your "dark mod" folder:

     

    H:\dark mod\ac1.pk4 (627 files) 

     

    rather than under darkmod/fms .

    If any of them have main menu overrides they will break the menus for all missions.

    You should also avoid having spaces in folder names. We currently work with this but at any moment some code bug

    could manifest that doesn't like spaces in folder names.

    Once you relocated your missions to the /darkmod/fms/ directory, re-run tdm_installer and see if the problem persists.

     

    Thanks, That worked.

    I removed the spaces in folder names and moved missions to fms directory.

    Things are working as they should.

    I Thank you for helping me out, it is greatly appreciated. Now I gotta go play.

    Cheers

  2.  nbohr1more,

     I tried "a new job" same result

     I downloaded "closedmouthed shadows" via the in game downloader and same result.

     Looking through my config file I see alot of errors - so many that I had to remove the most of them to make the file small enough to post. The total size was 1.31 meg before editing. I guess obviously some thing is amiss.

     Anyhow, here is the file.
     
     Thanks and good luck.

    BAD MENU.txt

  3. Thanks nbohrmore for the info but it is still the same.

     I did a re-install 3 times and re-run tdm_installer twice more afterward with no problem reported.

     I have no mpd packages installed and no customized GUI.

     I have full ownership and permissions for the darkmod folders and all others as well.

     I run TheDarkModx64.exe as administrator.

     I have run virus and maleware scans with no problems detected.

     I have re-started the computer twice for good measure.

     I have never had a problem with theDarkMod before and I have played all missions available on the mission downlaod page. It is the first time that I attempted to play a "beta" mission so I figured I was doing something wrong but I can find no problem.

     Thanks - this is allmost as much fun as playing a mission.


  4.   Congrats on the release, I would love to play it but I am having trouble finding the "Start Mission".

     I have downloaded and installed "beta 2.50" and "beta 2.6" and once The Dark Mod starts I can select the mission but there is no "Start Mission". I select the mission and the game restarts and I click on new mission as I have allways done and it goes back to the same screen with no start mission..

     I also tried to load a saved game and got an error. (not that I figured it would work anyway)

     I then downloaded and tried a few other new "beta 2.xx" missions and get the same result.
     Soooo, what am I doing wrong?. This is my first time using a Beta release.


     Thanks.

    Ok, it seems that it has gotten glitched somehow, and it's now in your save. I just loaded the mission up but couldn't break it.

     

     

    If you're sure you are entering 968 into the code lock and nothing happens the only thing you can do is to noclip in behind the bookcase and frob the lever on the inside wall to move the bookshelf I'm afraid. You can hit the key below the Esc key on your keyboard to bring down the console (provided that you have it activated in your shortcut, by adding "+set com_allowConsole 1" without qoutes in the target box), just type noclip in the console to be able to go through walls, go in to the secret office and frob the switch then type noclip in the console again to reset it to normal. The only other option is to replay the mission from start (or an earlier save if you have one).

     

     

    OK, I will do one or the other.

    I should have thought of this myself.

    Thank-you

    When you enter the code into the device the sound you hear is a small cupboard opening on the same desk, in there is a pull lever that will move the bookcase. It's at the top of the desk slightly on the right half of the desk. Hopefully you will see it, but if it doesn't open you may need to reload. It's probably possible for the mechanism to glitch if the correct code is entered and then quickly switched over to the wrong code.

     

     

    Sorry, but there is no cupboard that opens and there is no cupboard door that can be frobed except for the original upper left, the lower center and the lower left.

    I have set the combination to 000 saved the game and restarted several times and there is no change. I even tried to frob the switch through the door, but that no workie either.

  7. Very decent mission Bienie

     

    I am having a little problem with...

     

     

    .. the bookcase that hides Rawlyn's secret office, I enter the code into the locking mechanism and I hear a click but there is no change to the room.
    I have searched for the "small door with the lever that will move the bookshelf away revealing the secret office" but have not found it.
    Where is it?

    I am playing on MASTER but have tried to find it on ROOKIE as well and there is no difference between the two in regards to revealing the secret office.

    I am using version 2.07 with the latest updates.

    Thanks for any hint as to what I am doing wrong.

    David
