TDM 2.0 crash on launch

[f0xX]

Hey,

 

the Dark Mod 2.0 has recently stopped working for me. Prior to this, I installed one of the missions in-game (don't remember which one) and during the installation process, the game crashed to desktop. The next time I tried to launch the game (the next day) all I got was a black screen for a short time as if the game would launch and then a crash to desktop, as well as the following crash log:

I'm guessing that the easiest fix would be to reinstall but maybe this gives the guys who created this great mod some technical feedback that they might implement in a later patch (?). Or it helps someone with a similar problem ...

 

Thanks in advance!

PS: I hope my spoilers work.

Yep, they did!

Looks like you've got an old version of the "Thieves" mission which is using an outdated light script.

 

Try deleting the Thieves folder inside your FMS directory and download it via the mission downloader

[f0xX]

That did the trick, thanks a lot.

 

Edit: On an other note - you seem to be an experienced TDM user, could you tell me if there is a site where I could download more well-made 2.0 fan missions? Google and this forum don't yield much and the in-game downloader seems to be offline right now.

 

Edit 2: Ok, I worked through the forums and found a bunch of 2.0 maps. I'm guessing these are the only ones I will find at the moment?

The online mission downloader has been down ever since Slashdot linked to us a few days ago, but anything on there is compatible with 2.0.
