Apparently 1.03 won't work on Win2000?

[fibanocci]

Doesn't work. I got the same error message as before.

Ah, forgot a change, please try again using the same link: http://www.dramthethief.com/darkmod/files/win2k/tdm_game01.pk4

That's it! It worked!

 

Thanks a lot for the support.

Ok, I'll try to get that in the wiki. Could you check the article for completeness once I'm done?

[fibanocci]

Of course. Just drop a note

I'll keep the files just in case somebody asks.

[greebo]

Done, please review that page: http://modetwo.net/d...in_Windows_2000

 

Is that clear enough? If yes, please give the folks at TTLG a heads up.

 

I also updated the FAQ and the Installation article, and added a few links.

[fibanocci]

As for the gdi+

I just dropped the gdiplus.dll into the system32-folder, thats all I did.

 

The rest is ok, I think.

I guess the installer would do the same, but I can't confirm that.

 

Ah, I see what the updater does. I'll adjust the article.

[fibanocci]

Update to 1.05 was just fine. When I try to update to 1.06, I get this message.

 

 

I even tried the old 1.03-fix. Same message. Looks like I have to upgrade to XP.

well its certainly cheap enough theses days

Sure it is. You're so helpful

 

But somehow, you didn't get the point. I wanted to update DarkMod in win2k just to try it out. To make sure it works. But it doesn't. It's not a big deal to switch to XP. I just wanted to mention this in case somebody has got similar problems.

Hopefully it can be solved again.

<shrug> sooner rather than later then.

[greebo]

Does this apply to you, Fibanocci?

(Although I somewhat agree that Win2k is more than just antiquated these days.)

[fibanocci]

I don't know. I have the C++ 2008 Redistributable installed in win2k, but I need it for testing purposes. So I don't change it. I solved the problem by updating in XP and playing in win2k (bone-headed, I know ). TDM 1.06 is working just fine in win2k

Congrates on your T2 mission btw, been playing it etc. Maybe your next one will be a TDM mission..?
