Trouble installing FMs

Every time I try to install a new FM, I get this error:

 


--------- Initializing Game ----------
The Dark Mod 1.00, code revision 3718
Build date: Oct 13 2009
Initializing event system
...759 event definitions

********************
ERROR: Error: file script/tdm_events.script, line 41: Unknown event 'frobHilight'

I can load my existing installed FM just fine. What's going on?

It may be that your last update did not complete. Run tdm_update.exe again and again until you see the message: "All done, your TDM installation is up-to-date. Enjoy!" Let us know if that doesn't solve the problem

 

Nope, still not working.

Seems to indicate you're having trouble updating.

Where is your darkmod folder located?

Uninstall your current FM then close TDM and run the updater.

Try search your doom3 folder for all gamex86.dll's and delete them all then run the updater again

 

(I have a feeling that the updater might need to delete all the dll's between major updates)

Figured it out. It was in the program files folder, so I needed to give tdmlauncher.exe admin privileges to install the FM.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
