This has been happening for a while (since 2.02 at least) but I'm just now getting around to posting about it but when I try to use the spyglass all I get is a black screen. Any ideas? Fully updated TDM 2.03. Thanks, Richard

Bit of background first: when I first downloaded TDM v1, I suffered the same symptoms: after the first start or two, the main menu would be always completely black. The music would play, and you could click on the menu options if you moved the invisible mouse cursor to the right spot, but still obviously a game breaking bug. At that time, running the updater fixed the problem, and I figured it was probably a corrupted download. Now the problem is back. Just now I've installed a new FM, and the program rebooted itself to a completely blank black main menu screen. Everything behaves the same way, with one difference: running the updater does NOT fix it. In fact, the updater says my installation is up to date. Help would be appreciated. System specs: WinXP Dual Pentium CPU 4 GB RAM GeForce 9600 None of this has changed since I last played, so I doubt it's a hardware problem. EDIT: I've downloaded the torrent (non-updater based) version and overwrote my previous installation with it. It fixed the problem - at least for a short while. I now suspect the problem is integral to one specific FM, namely Glenham Tower. Will post more if I have anything. EDIT: Turns out the issue was most likely that Total Commander automatically puts brackets around certain (hidden?) directory names, and I thought they were meant to be an actual part of the name, so the installation of the FM went wrong. I think, anyway. Problem no longer around.

I'm wondering if anyone ever checks new posts in the Fan Missions Forums? I've posted 4 questions asking for help for 4 different missions that I can't finish because I"m stuck, and I don't get any help. I posted a question this morning so I don't expect an answer right away for that one. Its frustrating because I would like to finish them. I've read through the posts for each mission and I'm not getting anything from them. If there's someone who could help me I'd really appreciate it. Thanks I guess I'm spoiled from the TTLG forums.

Hi all, me again Now that I've learned how to take screenies on DM (thanks to Aluminumhaste) I wanted to post one that I took but I got an error saying that the image ext that I used was not allowed in these forums, It was .jpg so I changed it to .png and I got the same error again. They're on Photobucket.

(this is a puzzle that was used in hiring interviews for Cambridge, Mass start-up, Panjiva Inc.) - Imagine you are looking at three cardboard boxes. - One box contains all white balls, one all black balls, and one a mix of black and white balls. - Each box is labeled, but the labels are all wrong. How many balls would you need to pull out to determine which box is which?

I ran into a little problem while following a tutorial on the wiki page, where I needed to use the Readable editor which should have been located in the 'entity' menu. But there's none there, and there's also another one missing as well I hear. Maybe there's a problem with the desktop environment I'm using, which is Mate? First of all I need to know if anyone else is experiencing this problem and have a workaround/ solution. And secondly if there's a recommended desktop environment to use which won't cut off the menus if that's what is happening. Thank you. DR. 2.0.2 (X64) Ubuntu Mate 14.04 64bit.

Are there any plans on improving the mission launcher menu in the future? For example: Keyboard scrolling through the downloadable missions.Mouse scrolling.Ordering filter (name, date released, date updated, most downloaded, etc.)

Personally I think this is the worst idea ever. The Reason forums has LOADS of info and knowledge, built up through years and years. I'm really sad to see it go away, and I can't understand why they've made this decision. https://www.propellerheads.se/forum/showthread.php?p=1579099#poststop

Found this on Moddb and the first time I saw it I thought, hey that reminds me of "Anotherword" or Flashback" and that ironically was what the creators were aiming for. I'm considering chucking some ££ at it. https://www.kickstar.../black-the-fall A demo - http://www.idg.pl/ftp/pobierz/gry/20089.html

Afternoon This has been bugging me for the longest time as I have not been able to find an editor/app or a hack for a fix for this. Essentialy I want to move the position of the delete option from the right click context menu in windows 7, because I keep hitting it instead of rename etc. Does anyone know of an app or hack..?

Hello, If I go to the audio parameters, pass the different option, when showing "sound 7.1" option, game crashes. Then I can not launch it anymore, it always crashes at start. So I have to open TDM config file Darkmod.cfg and change this line: seta s_numberOfSpeakers "8" to seta s_numberOfSpeakers "2" and the game no more crash. I can reproduce this bug everytime. Someone could reproduce this bug on Ubuntu 14.04? LGDN

Playing in several different missions, it seems that black or very dark areas of the screen seem to take on a bluish-gray tinge, and stand out very strongly. This is visible in a variety of places - dark portions of wall near windows or sky; the spaces between cobblestones or other patterns and guards in shadow are especially so. It's less apparent in sections of the screen near my character, and also more apparent on the top half of my monitor than the bottom half. I've fiddled with my ingame brightness and gamma, turned the LOD up and down, recalibrated my monitor's display, and installed the most recent video drivers, but it still persists, both ingame and in screenshots. Black areas on other people's videos and screenshots appear normal, so I don't think my monitor itself is the problem. My video specs are: Video card:AMD Radeon HD 6700 Monitor: SyncMaster 920NW/920LM (I do have it set to 32bit color) I've also attached a screenshot; the wall in the mid-right of the image looks bluish-grey and is more visible than it should be.

Hey, Images fixed now... u shgould be able to see them I just added a door and am trying to get it to work, and tested it by compiling etc. This is what I find in the doorway instead of the door. I don't know what's causing this given I'm early in the learning process so could someone shed some light on it? On the first one, there is a path_corner viewers side of invisible door, there's a entity atm:mover_door_handling_position and a path_wait entity, all around the viewers side of the door. In radiant, there is nothing in this exact position, except in the case of the first image, there's a door set to be locked 1, lock_pins 2, and lock_picktype t The second image is the same thing, but a different doorway that has never had a door put in. Any hints on how to fix this and bring the door in first pic back? Also why did it disappear? I've seen this twice now. I'm using the wiki to try to learn how to many any door with handles, and keyéd/lockable/pickable. Thanks Ven
