Installation trouble


JBERT

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I'm trying to install The Dark Mod on a Toshiba P200 running Linux Debian/Jessie. I have followed wiki pages and read the FAQ. I don't know where is my mistake.

 

When I launch ./thedarkmod.x86, I only obtain a black screen.

 

To install The Dark Mod, I have created .doom3/darkmod in my home directory. I have downloaded doom3-linux-1.3.1.1304.x86.run to install doom3 (in default directory /usr/local/games/domm3). I have checked that doom3 runs fine. I can lauch doom3 but as I don't have serial number, it stops with a dialog and ask for a serial number.

 

I have downloaded The Dark Mod in .doom3/darkmod with tdm_update.

 

In FAQ, I have seen that some graphic card do not like compressed textures. Thus, I have modified .doom3/darkmod/Darkmod.cfg to add :

 

set r_mode "-1"
set r_customwidth "1440"
set r_customheight "900"
seta r_aspectratio "2"
seta image_usePrecompressedTextures "1"
seta image_useNormalCompression "2"
seta image_useAllFormats "1"
seta image_useCompression "0"
seta image_preload "1"

 

but it doesn't work as expected.

 

When I redirect TDM output in a file, I obtain :

I don't understand why TDM believes that graphic adapter only has 64 MB of VRAM. I have tried to run TDM with +set sys_videoRam 256 MB with the same result. I suppose that trouble comes from :

WARNING:Couldn't load image

 

P200 contains :

- Intel® Core™2 Duo CPU T7500@2.20GHz

- RV630/M76 [Mobility Radeon HD 2600]

 

VGA driver is radeon with direct rendering (I have checked with glxinfo | grep rendering).

 

Where is my mistake ?

 

Best regards,

You don't need Doom3 at all since TDM 2.0 is completely standalone. You can move the "darkmod" directory anywhere you want provided it is still named "darkmod". Since you snipped most of the GL_ info from the console dump, it's hard to tell for certain, but you will likely need to install and enable s3tc support. I assume that the lib you mention above provides that, so you should be good to go after that.

I am the bat. The night is mine.

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
