Well, I have good news and bad news. The good news is that I cannot reproduce the crash. The bad news is that I cannot reproduce the crash. It's odd. The crash used to happen frequently when I was learning combat skills on the Training Mission using 2.10. Today, I spent more than an hour trying 2.10 with and without a debugger and 2.11 beta 5 with a debugger. No crash yet. I also had a recent crash in the flooded section of "A Good Neighbor" during combat a few weeks ago. This crash hasn't bothered me too much, because I usually ghost or iron-ghost missions. So, my playstyle is not to engage in combat ever. But I do engage in combat sometimes before reloading just for the experience. I mainly hoped it could be fixed for others who enjoy combat or iron mode, though. I'll keep an eye on this. I hope it never occurs again, or I can get a backtrace of the crash someday. (I am now better at combat than I intended to be. )

It is possible that this is a setting that needs to be activated to work: https://mantisbt.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=23221

That's a bigger one, but I already have it. I remember trying to play that not long after release (2008) and I think I had stuttery FPS and crash-to-desktops. Maybe waiting 15 years was long enough.

I am going to sort-of reveal that this is loosely like the nature of my upcoming mission. I noted it here when JackFarmer asked about things that are coming along in this post: https://forums.thedarkmod.com/index.php?/profile/37993-jackfarmer/&status=3943&type=status It too is a builder church. The player is requested by a hopefully famous character in another mission to handle some business that is affecting the congregation. I am looking to invoke some info and history laid down in other missions as a hook story.

I dom't use it, i found it here with the filter set to OpenSource. the TOS and PP isn't excluding for an OpenSource app, if they use ads mean that they also need to pay an server for this online service. OpenSource is not synonymous with free either, perhaps after the beta phase it is no longer free, so perhaps you can take advantage of the fact that it is still free to create a series of textures that can be used or search another one in Futuretools. AI generated textures and assets, by definition, don't have any copyright, so you can use them as you want. https://www.futuretools.io/?pricing-model=free|open-source&tags-n5zn=gaming

Hi, this mission is crashing on my system and I cannot go on. Playing "Hidden Hands - The lost citadel" Version 6 on Fedora Linux Version 38. I paste the whole output of the console below. Perhaps someone can find the cause for the crash, that would be very nice [stefan@fedora darkmod]$ ./thedarkmod.x64 TDM 2.11/64 #10264 (1435:10264) linux-x86_64 Jan 30 2023 02:02:43 /proc/cpuinfo CPU frequency: 899.998 MHz 900 MHz Intel CPU with SSE & SSE2 & SSE3 & SSSE3 & SSE41 & AVX found interface lo - loopback Found Intel CPU, features: SSE SSE2 SSE3 SSSE3 SSE41 AVX TDM using AVX for SIMD processing.

I created the page: https://wiki.thedarkmod.com/index.php?title=Lightgem In the source I placed the following text: <!-- Page text made by forum user Fiver: https://forums.thedarkmod.com/index.php?/topic/22327-how-can-i-create-an-account-on-the-tdm-wiki/&do=findComment&comment=491145 --> Personally I think the page isn't really necessary because the info is already present under HUD.

Just installed the first 2.12 beta and switched to altham (A Night in Altham). Started mission and was simply exploring the configuration menus ... and it crashed! I've attached a a good part of the log below (starting from reload, presumably triggered by selecting the mission): Unfortunately the actual crash: *** longjmp causes uninitialized stack frame ***: terminated signal caught: Aborted doesn't look terribly illuminating. This missing seems to have triggered an awful lot of error messages ... is the mission itself sound to test? Think I might switch to something older to start with... Edit: Restarted the mission ... and it seems to be playing normally now. Hmmm

Intel used GIMP plugins to demo Meteor Lake's AI coprocessor capabilities. So hopefully GIMP goes down this path by the time accelerators become common on desktop.

Whenever I try to open The Dark Mod, it shows a grayish-white Screen when opened, then when I click on it it lags and shows me the not responding popup, so I try to close it. I have reinstalled it 3 times. When I first installed it, It worked properly for the first week or so, but has been reoccurring since then. I don’t know what’s wrong with it, I install it the right version (I have a Windows 10 64-bit desktop), I try to do everything correct, and it still won’t work properly. I have a video, link related: https://youtube.com/shorts/csugorI4jkU?si=TuxhoWOU2XkHFhPm

also 4k looks great when setup correctly but it is also the most annoying part of playing in it... -> need to setup HDR brightness/contrast correctly or everything looks washed out, win10 does have a HDR setting for running your desktop in 4K but it tends to disable itself if a game you play does not support HDR to begin with making things look weird at times. You also need to enable scaling of the desktop as otherwise the text gets to small to read and the icons are allmost impossible to hit with the mouse. i use a 42" smart TV and have scaling set at 175% win10 actually sets it to 200% but thats a bit big for my taste win11 has auto HDR so it reenables desktop HDR when you exit a game atleast. Also if you play on a TV like i do 4K gets quite vonky in movies if you try to use full rgb mode (blocky/noisy video playback) this is due to the fact that most movies you can stream are not actually 4K even when advertised as such and get scaled up, in fact only one app in win10/11 can play real 4K content and that is the netflix player and only if you have the premium package. this is caused by microsoft removing the codec needed for 4K playback due to the film industry complaning about people who (might) be copying there 4K content so they were forced to remove it before win10 hit release. the old edge could also play 4k content but this has been removed in the new edge and no other browser can play 4k content now. you might get lucky and find the codec somewhere on the net but take exceedingly good care cause you might get more than you barganied for (malware / virusses -> other nastiness).

Mandrasola is a small sized map in which aspiring thief Thomas Porter steals some herbal products from a smuggler. The mission was created by me, Sotha and I wish to thank Bikerdude, BrokenArts and Ocn for playtesting and voice acting. Thanks goes naturally to everyone contributing and making TDM possible. This mission occurs chronologically before the Knighton's Manor, making it the first mission in the Thomas Porter series. Events in chronological order are: Mandrasola, The Knighton's Manor, The Beleaguered Fence, The Glenham Tower and The Transaction. The winter came early and suddenly this year. Weeks of strong blizzards and extremely harsh cold weather hit Bridgeport hard. With the seas completely frozen, a rare occurence indeed, most of the City harbor commerce has stopped completely. Vessels are stuck in the ice and no ship can leave or enter the City, resulting in the availability imported goods declining and their prices skyrocketing. One of these imported items is Mandrasola, a rare herbal product, which is imported overseas from the far southern continents. Mandrasola has its uses in alchemical cures and poisons, but mostly this substance is used for its narcotic qualities by commoners and even the nobility. The problem with Mandrasola is that excessive use is extremely addicting and the withdrawal effects are most grievious. Many are utterly incapable of stopping using Mandrasola and are transformed into quivering human ruins if they do no get their daily dose. And now this expensive and rare substance is running out from the whole City. Me and my fence, Lark Butternose, would love to grab this monopoly to ourselves: selling the last few doses in the City would probably be worth a fortune. According to Lark's sources, there remains only one smuggling lord who still has Mandrasola in stock. The problem is that this individual maintains an exclusive clandestine operation and only supplies a few nobles. Despite our best information gathering efforts we couldn't learn who the smuggler is and where he or she operates. Luckily we have an alternate plan. While searching for Mandrasola related information, we learned that a noblewoman called Lady Ludmilla is addicted to the substance and has paid high prices for small amounts of it. We also know that she has visited frequently someone in the Tanner's Ward waterfront, and since she goes to the area personally we believe she is visiting the smuggler. The plan is simple: I must monitor Ludmilla's most likely entryway to the Waterfront and then follow her to the smugglers hideout. I'd better be very careful around Ludmilla. She must not realise I'm following her or she probably won't lead me to her dealer. Hurting her is also out of the question. After she leads me to the smuggler's hideout, I can take my time to break in carefully and steal all the Mandrasola I can find. While I'm there it wouldn't be a bad idea to grab some loose valuables as well. I've now waited in the blistering cold for a few hours already. Looks like there are a few city watch patrols in the area to complicate matters... I think I heard a womans voice beyond the north gate. That must be lady Ludmilla, I haven't seen many ladies in these parts. I'd better get ready.. Links: Use the ingame downloader to get it. WARNING! Someone always fails to use spoiler tags. I do not recommend reading any further until you've played the mission.

In the first post of the other topic Geep proposed: Then Stgatilov's answer: But I think applying subtitles in different languages shouldn't be too hard I would think, but I don't know how the current translation system works. The engine should apply the correct subtitles based on the applied language setting, this doesn't need a whole new language system I think. Not sure who's going to write those subtitles though. I can only do Dutch and English and nobody needs Dutch I think. I suggest further discussion of this to take place in topic https://forums.thedarkmod.com/index.php?/topic/21741-subtitles-possibilities-beyond-211/

Hey, I noticed in the mission list my mission didn't have my author name in it, so I edited the darkmod.txt file in my mission folder and added it, and now the game crashes to desktop every single time. I figured corrupt save file, so deleted that, no help. I redownloaded my mission from the forum, and still it crashes. Anyone know why? How do I fix it? Thanks Neon

Creating a new thread for this as it was being discussed in an old beta-testing thread starting here: https://forums.thedarkmod.com/index.php?/topic/21822-beta-testing-high-expectations/&do=findComment&comment=490751 I suppose the main questions are: when should this spawnarg be used, if at all? why was it introduced in the first place? Can we get it documented properly on the Wiki so misuse isn't propagated? @stgatilov @Dragofer

Nice OpenSource app which I use now on Desktop https://omega.gg/MotionBox/ MotionBox accesses and aggregates videos via the VBML language. It supports DuckDuckGo, BitTorrent, TMDB, YouTube, Dailymotion, Vimeo, Twitch, TikTok, Facebook, Odysee, PeerTube, Last.fm and SoundCloud. All of this inside multiple tabs and without ever showing an ad.

Hello, I get a dark radiant crash every time I try to use Connection > Update entities on every change I do the following steps: 1. Start TDM, load map with console command "map anol" 2. Enter in console "com_automation 1", windows firewall request was accepted the first time (no other firewall is running) 3. Start dark radiant and load corresponding map fms/anol/maps/anol.map 4. Activate "Game position follows dark radiant camera" > camera synchronisation is working 5. Change an entity and use Connection > Update entities now > working without problems 6. Activate Connection > Update entities on every change 7. As soon as any entity is moved, dark radiant crashes by directly closing without giving an error on the desktop When this happens, TDM prints the following in the console: HotReload: SUCCESS ERROR: idTCP::Read: WSAECONNRESET Automation lost connection I'm using TDM 2.09/64 #9108 and Dark radiant 2.11.0 x64 Build date Jan 29 2021 13:59:57 Please help! If you need any more info (logfiles or anything like that) please tell me where to find it.

Hello! Tracking down information on software and plug-ins that work with D3 / TDM can be a tough. So I have created a thread here where people can post what software/ plug-ins/ tutorials or other references they've had success or failure with in TDM. 3DS MAX 2013 64bit .ase - Default .ASE model exporter works. However you have to open the .ase file in text edit and manual change the *BITMAP line on each material to read something like: "//base/textures/common/collision" which allows the engine to read the correct material path. md5.mesh / animation - Beserker's md5 exporter/importers for 3dsmax. http://www.katsbits.com/tools, Importing and exporting works. The model must be textured, UV'd, with a skin modifier attached to the bones to export. PM me (Kingsal) for help with this. Imported models using the script will not be weighted appropriately, so this is not recommended if you are simply trying to edit existing tdm content. (Use blender instead) MAYA 2011 32bit md5.mesh - So far I've not had any luck with Maya 2011. I am using Greebo's MayaImportx86 for Maya 2011. I've got the importer working however I get a "Unexpected Internal Failure(kFailure)" and the import fails. This could be due to something finicky in Maya that I am not doing correctly. Will keep trying.. Blender 2.7 about - Blender is commonly used and pretty well supported on the forums/ wiki. Various versions may work as well - https://www.blender.org/download/ md5.mesh / animation Blender MD5 importer/exporter (io_scene_md5.zip): https://sourceforge.net/projects/blenderbitsbobs/files/ Sotha's guide Blender Male/ Female rigs by Arcturus - Here Edit by Dragofer: more links found in this post.

I first tried it over a week ago. I only had the first problem with the cooldown based crash until yesterday, when suddenly it also started crashing all the time without me changing or updating anything. Downgraded to 2.10 in the installer for a test: Exact behavior as 2.11 beta 1 which I'm now on. No, never: I'm using "testmap mymap" from the console again now, always compiles and runs well. Aha: Interestingly enough no issue this way! I used the console to launch TDM with automation, as well as launching TDM normally then setting "com_automation 1" in the console: Using the "(Re)Start game" button in DarkRadiant, TDM always compiles and goes to my map successfully. So it must be something when Radiant launches the engine executable. Attached qconsole.log below. Generated for the timed crash... funny enough the new "connection lost unexpectedly" crash just fixed itself likely after the manual test for #4, I can use the feature again if I don't restart too often. Doesn't seem to make a difference, at least for the timed crash which is the one I can still reproduce now. Just saw the log repeats that 5 times near the end right before proceeding to shut down. So the engine might be failing to listen to the proper port when it's launched by DR I imagine. qconsole.log Was able to reproduce the timed crash another way: Successfully launch TDM from DR once then quickly close it... now open TDM normally (still works fine), open the console and set "com_automation 1". The moment I set that cvar TDM will crash or shut down on me. And once more, if I just wait over 1 minute and try again it works this time. Wonder if the OS might be messing with the port or something, I get this even with the firewall disabled so not sure how... also whether I close TDM from the Quit button or Alt + F4 makes no difference.

Now, it is just for "auto-remove me after X seconds". But nothing uses it, except for some platform (not used anywhere) and the famous "penis". The penis is attached to one type of proguard, which is indeed used in High Expectations, but I have no idea how this suicide script can migrate from penis to anything else. And I don't see any C++ code for dynamically spawning tdm_suicide. While I checked that the values that I printed are usually correct, and tdm_suicide.script:54 is indeed removal of entity, I think that logic won't help here. Either the information about tdm_suicide is simply nonsense, or there is some major corruption happening long before crash. I wonder if @snatcher can reproduce the crash from fresh start, or whether he reproduces it from particular save file.

As far as I know, it contains complete virtual memory contents of TheDarkMod process at the moment of crash: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/wer/collecting-user-mode-dumps Maybe it has some stuff in the header (like OS build, CPU info), but I can't say anything for certain. It should not contain any data from other programs of OS, as far as I know. Note that kernel-level dumps are a very different thing: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-client/performance/generate-a-kernel-or-complete-crash-dump They indeed contains memory contents of OS and probably other programs, so don't send them to anyone untrusted (or just don't send them).

Oh, man. Well, thanks for putting in the time to make it crash. I thought that the TDM installer includes a debug build, but I was remembering wrong. Then, I thought the wiki had information about how to compile a debug build, but I wasn't able to find it. I'm sorry I can't help with a Windows debug build, so another dev will need to chime in here. Perhaps you can save a crash dump and send it to a dev? https://wiki.thedarkmod.com/index.php?title=Save_a_Memory_Dump_for_debugging_Crashes

That's awesome that you found a way to reliably reproduce this crash! What steps are you taking while playing the game to reproduce the crash? If I can reproduce it reliably as well, I'll run a debug build and get a backtrace on Linux. I'm not familiar with Windows, but if you want to do the same, I'd look into running the debug build and getting a backtrace. And, perhaps try https://wiki.thedarkmod.com/index.php?title=Analyze_a_Memory_Dump
