Wow. That looks pretty weird. @esme: Could you upload your entire missions.tdminfo file - or post it ? It would help to correlate what is going on on the last page. (Like: should WS1-WS3 be checked as well as seen in the screen? Or is there an error as well?) What screen resolution are you using? Is it the native resolution of your screen? Which OS? This looks pretty funny ... and all wrong. The _2 (or _1) after 'mission_completed' and 'loot_collected' is quite normal. It seems having been introduced in TDM 1.06 already and should not be a problem. Something really funny must be going on.

First thanks for providoing such great game! Following the instruction at www.thedarkmod.com/download-the-mod/ I download the tdm_update.linux. It looks ok in updating process because no error message found. When launching the game, the screen becomes blank/ black, but the sound is playing. It looks like texture problems or something from the log below, but I am not sure. How can I fix it? My environment is lenovo t420s with debian testing.

I havent seen that thread, my card shipped with the F3L bios - gonna see if the F5 bios is compatible with my card. And I am already under volting it by 44mV (50mV cause some wierd screen garbage when waking up from standby) and unclocking from 1040 to 1000, as mentioned above.

sigh... unfortunately, the solution mentioned here fails just after the first line. It would seem my Xorg installation does not match the one in the tutorial, and therefore, I cannot even complete the first step. I do enjoy Linux, but when it gets to the point where you spend 3 days trying to properly install video card drivers and find yourself still at square one, it just doesn't seem worth it... I will keep chugging along and just hope that nothing I do breaks my entire system. Edit - okay, my kernel is intact, but now all I get is a tty2 screen. I think things are broken beyond my skill now.... Perhaps I can just wipe it out and upgrade to wheezy and try it all again.

TDM has been running perfectly well up until now (Linux 32-bit). Now, though, it loads and runs (I can hear the music and the keypresses) but the screen is blank. It may be the fact that I've just successfully loaded and run the latest version of Dark Radiant, and I may have inadvertently changed something I shouldn't have - but I simply don't know. Any help for my aching brain would be appreciated.

Okay! Glad to see a push for linux gaming! I installed per the basic instructions for linux just yesterday, but am having an error upon starting the game. I get a pretty long error list, mostly relating to not being able to load any of the images. Here is a sample of that list (it is wayyy to long to post all of it here, unless you want me to): WARNING:Couldn't load image: guis/assets/mainmenu/sidefigure1 WARNING:Couldn't load image: guis/assets/mainmenu/sidefigure2 WARNING:Couldn't load image: guis/assets/mainmenu/sidefigure3 WARNING:Couldn't load image: guis/assets/mainmenu/sidefigure4 WARNING:Couldn't load image: guis/assets/mainmenu/sidefigure5 WARNING:Couldn't load image: guis/assets/mainmenu/sidefigure6 WARNING:Couldn't load image: guis/assets/mainmenu/sidefigure7 After all that, there is a different bit where it was trying to figure out my hardware and seemed to fail: 4032 MB System Memory guessing video ram ( use +set sys_videoRam to force ) .. guess failed, return default low-end VRAM setting ( 64MB VRAM ) 64 MB Video Memory Async thread started Couldn't exec autocommands.cfg - file does not exist.

Any suggestions?

I'm releasing my all-in-one experimental TDM 2.01 for the mac today. You'll need a ready-to-go "darkmod" folder and my app and then you should be good to go. Please read the notes below. TheDarkMod.zip Right click the downloaded app and select "Show package contents". Drag your darkmod folder into Contents/Resources, like the attached picture. After that, just close that window and double click. Notes, notes, and more notes: It doesn't do full screen. If you set full screen and restart it won't work anymore. You can manually reset it but I don't remember at the moment how to do that. It will modify the app bundle itself as you download missions and save games. I've since decided this was a bad idea and my next version won't do that. Source code is here: https://bitbucket.org/chairface/thedarkmod I made more changes to the portable code than was necessary so I don't think folding my changes back into the build is a good idea. I needed to rebuild the boost libraries so I pulled down boost and did so. Unfortunately, I pulled down 1.55; TDM is based on 1.51. 1.55 doesn't build right with clang so I had to hand patch it. Long story short, my next attempt is based on 1.51 and is less crazy. Also, you probably won't be able to build my code as you'll need the patched boost.

First off I'd like to say that "Dark Mod" is great game and I've had no problems running it in Windows 8.1 64 bit except for one small graphics problem. "Dark Mod" Is Not Resolution Friendly! Case in point.. I'm still able to play games on my computer like "Rendezvous With Rama", "System Shock 2", "Fallout 3", all of the Thief games, and a heck of a lot of other games at a resolution of 4600 x 2600 on a 55" HDTV that is only capable of 1080p. I'm able to reach such a high resolution by downsampling and of course having a really good graphics card. The problem is this.. All of he games cater to or recognize that high a resolution except for "Dark Mod". In order to be able to play "Dark Mod" I have to re-adjust the screen resolution back down to at least 1080p and reset the text size to a much lower scale. or setting. If I don't reset everything what happens when I run the game is that only the 1/4 top left corner of the main menu and game is visible. With the exception of one or two of my really old games, all of my game can be set to a 16:9 aspect ratio @ 4600 x 2600p but not "Dark Mod" unless I first change my settings. So my question is this.. can an update patch be made for this problem or am I doing something wrong with setting up "Dark Mod"?

I think this is a precision issue. When you are so close to black you start to need more precision to reduce banding. One workaround would might be to dither the gradients in the source image. Is fog in the affect map? Do you have post processing enabled? Both can cause more banding artifacts. Some dither in the renderer or shaders would help there too.

For me it's almost not noticeable. (but then again, i have an old macbook pro mid 2009 and get used to run "new" games on low grapics and low fps,...) What is the best way to measure the fps in the darkmod? is there something like a "benchmark" mission? I dont remember if i changed the default game-settings. But with the settings i now use, I get the following measurements: (Darkmod 2.01 on playonmac 4.42, wine 1.7.17, full screen on a "little" 640x480 game-resolution, trainingsmission) location lowest fps-highest fps main-room: 40-60 archery 15-30 melee: 12 - 30

I've just downloaded the updater and run it to create a fresh tdm install on my laptop (running Fedora 20), and when I run TDM it causes my login session to quit! Here's the result of running ./thedarkmod.x86 >&tdm.log: The truncated last line is how it appears in the log. The graphics card is reported as VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 06) by running lspc | grep VGA , so I guess it's pretty basic. I can't think of anything else relevant to report. Any thoughts?

Nearly looks as though the game is getting processed in segments as if the CPU pipe is congested with something else. Would be nice to have a background task % as Biker asked to help troubleshoot this. @Manio, prior to starting the game, just sitting at your desktop, can you take a screenshot of the task manager and post it? Would be best to sort by clicking the CPU column header prior to taking the screen shot too. Would also be nice to switch Task Manager to "always on top" and get a screen shot with the game running during this issue. Thanks

Can you do a screen of task manager showing tasks by cpu useage when TDM is doing a go slow, i would like to see if there are any other apps running in the background.

The link on that site points to TDM's downloadpage, Bikerdude. I upgraded my darkmod installation to 2.01 with the windows updater, because the mac updater didn't find any mirrors. After running the update, I was hoping to find an 2.01 mac binary inside the folder, but didn't. So i copied malex's 2.0 app to the 2.01 folder and run it. Malex app works with the updated files(!) and I played succesfully an old saint lucia's mission. But after the update running the malex binary, darkmod shows the version 2.0 instead of 2.01. The windows version detects version 2.01. Is there a way to manually change my version in the mac binary or something else to solve it? To make new windows/mac players easier, is it possible to port the updater and excutable to unity3d? I updated my installation to 2.01 with the windows updater (through wine). (if you dont trust the updater, just make an backup of your darkmod folder. Or change the download location in the updater for a full new installation) At the moment, I dont have full screen problems. For the time beeing, Run Darkradiant with Wine. I succesfully started Darkradiant with Wine (through playonmac), but have not the knowledge to create an map.

I don't know where the bug lies, but I can confirm it doesn't always happen. I just tried in the test map I made for tracking mission stats. 'Do not kill 2 guards' failed with a red X on my objectives screen when my second fire arrow hit, and when I called up the Objectives page again from the Mission Failed screen, I still had a red X in there, not a tick.

I was just watching a beta-test of my mission, and the player failed an objective (he had the objective screen open when this happened and saw the X appear). After the failed game showed, he clicked on the Objectives option, and that same objective had a checkmark instead of an X. Has anyone noticed this before? That could be quite confusing for players trying to figure out why they failed, and I'm wondering if it's a game bug or something incorrect I've done with my objectives.

That BenQ is the one that turned up in searches I did also researching your topic. I don't like glossy bezels either however my current stable of monitors have glossy bezels because that was the only option and suprisingly they're not distracting and particularly in the dark appear pitch black and melt away in to the scene. I can't say I'm fond of them but they are much less issue that I'd previously thought. They do require frequent weekly dusting though. All of my monitors are 1920x1200 so yes I agree completely with you. There are 10bit lcd panels out now but they're used mainly in medical and specialized industries and aren't cheap what-so-ever. $5,279 $1,400

The luminance refer's to how bright the monitor is, if a monitor has a cd/M2 of 300 and a black point of 0.3 the contract ratio would be very good. But that would be a false advertising, because they manufacturer would using a insanely high brightness level to cover up the fact of a crap black level. And this is compounded by the fact that most users would only have the Luminance set to half that. 0.32 isnt that good, my Nec's have a Bp level of 0.3 and if you google me, ttlg and monitors you'll see why - - http://www.ttlg.com/...ad.php?t=122056 - http://www.ttlg.com/...ad.php?t=124407 What I/we should be aiming for is a max of 0.18-0.2 for mainstream monitors at the £100-150 mark. There are AMVA/APVA monitors out there with Black levels of 0.04-0.05 that match those of a CRT monitor, and I was about to say "but so far they have noticable ghosting issue according to reviewers" but the BenQ GW2450HM seems to buck that trend - TfTCentral review. The BenQ is amazingly cheap for a 24" monitor and the spec @ £123, but then you see why... no adjustable stand, no usb ports and only a 2yr warranty. But on the plus side it has a matt AG coating, non-gloss bezel and doesn't look to bad either. So I could can two of these for the price I paid for the first one of my Nec's many moons ago at £246 for the pair. There are few problems as I see it, 1. my rig currently has a GTX670 and a core i5 2500k and is what most people would consider high'ish spec, but most games would struggle at 2560*1440 on even this set-up. That said I guess AA higher than 2x wont be required at such resolutions? 2. the prices of those monitors will be silly in the extreme, anything more than £250 will be taking the piss. 3. more importantly will the release of said monitors drop the price of the current crop of 1920*1080 monitors..?

Look at the link Nob posted, near the bottom they compare the U2413 to the U2413M. Hmmm, not sure what this means but: luminance (cd/m2): 266 Black Point (cd/m2): 0.32 Contrast Ratio: 839:1 that seems really dark black point. This is an LCD backlight and I find this monitor excellent for TDM.

Too expensive @ £350+ per monitor and the black levels on this montor are worse than my Nec's. But there is a Dell U2413M out there that is £150 cheaper, but can find any comparisions so I can see what Dell have removed.

There are two suggested fixes for another game in this thread. I can't test whether they work with TDM as I don't have a tablet, but might be worth a shot: http://us.battle.net...pic/10160426196 One is to change the surface's default 150% dpi to 100%, the other is to switch off the full screen setting which apparently still results in full display).

Hmmm, no matter what res I use, the screen looks the same (as above). My desktop resolution is 1920x1080. This was a fresh/new install, btw. Other games have worked OK, although I've only tried a few. Grabbing the Hexen demo now to try out another id tech 4 game.

It's tough to get to the settings with the screen as is - is there a way to change the resolution by way of cfg or ini files?

Hey - picked up a Surface Pro recently, and was looking forward to running TDM on it. The problem is, when I fire it up, I'm only getting the upper left section of the the game screen. Any ideas what might cause this? It's running on Windows 8.1, and has an i5 processor and 4 GB of memory.

Please post a screenshot of your game settings screen, like Lux posted.
