Wrong Game DLL API version? WTH?

[slavatrumpevitch]

My semester finally wrapped up, time to take a look at TDM. I just installed it using the updater, and now, trying to run it, i get this error message: (this is actually the error message I get trying to run Doom 3, the error message I get trying to run TDM is much less helpful. It simply says something about runtime errors forcing it to close in an unusual way) any thoughts?

 

error message:

wrong game DLL API version

I can see that the wrong 1.3patch is applied. I wish Id would make a better effort to specify the correct patch.

 

You need the 1.3.1304 patch. Although, this is likely not why D3 itself is crashing. Sounds like maybe you have a stray game dll in your doom 3 folder perhaps? Running any other modifications?

[Serpentine]

Its just the patch issue, it does this if theres a missmatch

[slavatrumpevitch]

i used the patch that came with TDM. which one should I use?

 

edit: ok, i think I got it. thanks guys!

Yeah, the patcher id provided installs to the wrong directory if you're not careful.

[slavatrumpevitch]

so what should i do to "be careful?"

 

do I need to use a different patch version? or just install it differently?

Oh, I thought when you said you got it that you figured it out. Just make sure the patcher isn't appending an extra doom 3 to the file path. It's a crappy patching device on Id's part.

[slavatrumpevitch]

yea, i thought i had figured it out too, when i posted that. i guess not.

[slavatrumpevitch]

to my knowledge, i have changed nothing (not even restarted) but not it all works flawlessly. Just gave the training mission a test drive. BRAVO! I can't wait to play some the campaigns!
