I'm trying to improve the graphics by editing the doomconfig like I did for Doom 3, but it seems like changing certain things causes a black screen. What config values can I change without messing things up? At the very least, I'd like to know which values I can change to make the game the max possible graphics as if I was using the in-game menu, since most of my settings go back to default once I restart the game.

You should be able to use almost everything except 'ultra' settings, which we don't support since that would require using 'only' TGA's and we have a mix of tga and dds.

 

As long as you make sure the 'use all formats' graphic setting is set to 1, and it isn't over ridden by something, you should be fine.

 

The other option is for us to help you track down why your settings are reverting.

      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 )

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!
