hi there,

 

due to reasons beyond my control I need to restore a backup of my machine from before I put doom and darkmod on,

 

now I've no problem reinstalling doom, but I was wondering can I make a backup of the darkmod folder and pull that back after I've finished all my other stuff and reinstalled Doom3, rather than run the darkmod downloader again as the download takes a really long time ?

You can copy over the darkmod/ folder just fine. There's nothing written to the registry or somewhere else, the darkmod folder is all that is necessary.

 

brilliant! :D thank you

 

and may I add, the dark mod is incredible, I'm working through the training mission to get used to the controls but so far I have to say this is pretty much what I wanted from deadly shadows but never got, thank you for all the hard work

worked like a charm, just have to remember to run doom at least once before Dark Mod, well at least on my syste

 

ooh! any chance a mod can remove the extra "a" from the thread title, my typing is usually a lot better than that

      I tried to upscale the TDM logo video. First try:

      briefing_video.mp4 You can test it ingame by making a copy of the core tdm_gui.mtr and place it in your-tdm-root/materials/ , then edit line 249 of that file into the location where you placed the new briefing.mp4 file.
      What I did was I extracted all the image files, then used Upscayl to upscale the images using General photo (Real-Esrgan) upscale setting and then turn it back into a video.
      I might have to crop it a bit, the logo looks smaller on screen (or maybe it's actually better this way?). My video editor turned it into a 16:9 video, which I think overal looks better than 1:1 video of original.

      Finally got round to publishing a tutorial on baking normal maps in Blender, since most of the ones we have are inaccessible or years out of date.

      The FAQ wiki is almost a proper FAQ now. Probably need to spin-off a bunch of the "remedies" for playing older TDM versions into their own article.

      Was checking out old translation packs and decided to fire up TDM 1.07. Rightful Property with sub-20 FPS areas yay! ( same areas run at 180FPS with cranked eye candy on 2.12 )
