Can't launch TDM..?

I've installed TDM 1.08 seemingly without issue.. I can select the mission, it loads.. but never starts (regardless of the mission loaded)

I have all the settings maxed out at 1920x1200

Any ideas..?

 

Thanks.

Might just be a slow mission load, how much time did you give it?

 

try opening the console and setting com_showFPS 1

 

then watch the FPS activity while the mission loads.

 

 

Does any error pop-up at the end of the load?

 

Also, make sure that you've disabled Threading Optimizations in your nVidia driver settings.

 

As I recall, some folks were having problems with SLI setups. Have you tried disabling SLI?

Please visit TDM's IndieDB site and help promote the mod:

(Yeah, shameless promotion... but traffic is traffic folks...)

same problem, i tryed with the tuto and first mission, nothing but the "wait loading" message and nice picture of the level. It just stops.

Doom 3 could run well at max setting though. and now that TDM is installed, the game does not start and chrashes the same way. Only the menus are working.

      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!
