There is a huge dos error message, here is the pic:

This is from my other computer that hasn't been updated in ages, I think it has Dark Mod 1.2

 

(ignore the wrong directory - I forgot I had a copy of my darkmod folder here - the real one contained within the Doom3 folder gives the exact same error)

Starting from the first TDM updates and until now with the update 1.04 to 1.06 I have the same error with tdm_update.exe. I run it, click "Continue", and get this:

 

Downloading mirror information... failed, cannot continue.

No mirror information available - cannot continue.

Total bytes downloaded: 0 bytes

 

Here is TDM update log:

Tried many times - result is the same.

bloodgate.com works for me - is there something blocked on your end? Can you open this link:

      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!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?
