Movement feels and looks skewed to the right

After not playing for a while I installed to my new computer the latest version.

When I walk/run it is like I am walking diagonally instead of forward's.

My girlfriend agrees so is it just my computer or does anyone else have this problem ?

Actually I have seen something like that before, I think it was a problem with FOV, aspect ratio or zoom or something, but I don't recall exactly. Try fiddling with the resolution or aspect ratio settings in the menus, or adjusting the cvars g_fov and r_aspectRatio.

In the past a few ATI users complained about moving sideways. I think turning off catalyst AI fixed it.

That would probably make sense. I will try that thanks for the replys guys.

Have you tried turning off Post-Processing specifically? That seems to create problems for ATI users - for myself and at least one other, it causes a strange "fish-eye" perspective effect when active.

Or ward the tulwar's downward blow

Strike hard who cares—shoot straight who can—

The odds are on the cheaper man."

I've had the problem a few times, where you walk around at like 45% to the left/right and your movement is also wonky. For me it resolved by restarting TDM, but I think a friend had the same thing happen due to Cat AI. It feels a bit like you're completely drunk while trying to mess around when its like that :V

I've had this as well a couple times, but I think it's something completely different. I think it's the result of the mantle animation not completing 100%, so you end up in this weird 'drunk' mode. You can get out of it by noclipping then noclip again to fall the the ground. Sure would be cool if this mode could be enabled if you drink too many bottles of wine. laugh.gif

Well I could not disable cat AI(WTF were they thinking of ??) so I tried the executable rename and then it just stopped loading at all.

I renamed it but it still wouldnt work... I deleted and redownloaded the mod but nothing.

 

Doom3 would load though...

 

Next I went to reinstall doom3 but my lovely daughter and her friends were playing in the basement and my doom3 disc3 is missing.

 

I will have to buy the game again before I can try it again thanks for all the replys though.

Ok Found my missing doom3 cd in the bottom of my daughters toychest. Her bottom doesnt like me right now!

Apparently I had put it in 16:10 mode instead of 16:9 was my problem.

A whole lotta grief and trouble over my silly mistake.

Thanks for the help.

      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!
