hi, the direct mission download is a nice feature but now i have 2 missions double installed and cant get rid of them even with usind the deinstall ingame. i can delete them but im able to reinstall them afterwards.

 

and now the question about the resolution. i can choose ration 16:9 but there is no possible resolution like 1600x900 which is the native resolution of my laptop. why not?

the laptop looks like each lcd monitor horrible bad in other resolutions than their recommended ones...

For your resolution issue try adding:

 

seta r_customHeight "900"

seta r_customWidth "1600"

seta r_fullscreen "1"

seta r_aspectRatio "1"

seta r_mode "-1"

 

To your DoomConfig.cfg

Because this resolution was only added to the menu recently and should be available in v1.06: http://wiki.thedarkmod.com/index.php?title=What%27s_new_in_TDM_1.06

 

As others wrote, your best bet is to set the values in the console or config file:

 

seta r_customHeight "900"
seta r_customWidth "1600"
seta r_fullscreen "1"
seta r_aspectRatio "1"
seta r_mode "-1"

 

It should be enough if you set them in the console while TDM is running, quit TDM and restart it, then it should come up ok.

ok im happy if the resolution will be added to the official version of the game.

 

but what can i do vs the double installed missions which dont allow to be deleted?

 

it would also be really helpful if this ingame installer could read the exact mission version like 1.2.1 or sth else...

I found deleting both copies of the mission locally, then downloading the one the ingame mission downloader gives you worked for me. To avoid getting double-ups of missions I use the ingame downloader exclusively now.

      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!
