Doom Fm will not load!

[robert256]

Hello everyone, I'm fairly new. I can't get the fm maps to load in the Darkmod.I get no objectives or map, when I click map it gives me a in the game error map can't load. then returns to the menu, after I click buy equipment.

 

I even copied the name of the map over to the fm folder from the Doom3 directory(which had the gamex86 in it). I have no choice to unzip them and put them in there own folder name, in order to have it show up on the in the game menu. I'm out of ideas do anyone of you know how to fix this problem?? I followed the steps in the FAQ related to my problem. It seems they don't have a problem for the problem I have..Your help would be appreciated.

You need to put the pk4's on the fm folder inside the darkmod folder not doom3 folders, and them install the fm on the game menu, just click "new mission" chose the one you want and them click on install mission.

Are the FM's actually listed as zip files? If so, that is an issue with Internet Explorer renaming downloads. We're not very impressed by that.

 

In any case, those zip files should actually be .pk4

Hi, i have a question. Would it be possible to create a page (like between "I want to Help" and "Off Topic") called "I need Help"? It would be way easier to find what you are searching for.

A technical help subforum is a good idea, with a few "most common problems" threads stickied.
