LOL...never got asked to test it. Now 2.0.1 is out and that stinking Quicksave/Quickload bug is back. Too bad about not getting a chance to test it.

I was running 2.0.1beta previous to tonight and wasn't having that issue. But maybe I didn't do enough quicksave/loads during that time to notice it.

I also noticed that going under water drops the framerate dramatically. Was in the interior tunnel in siegeshop and entered the river. It went from 60-80fps to about 12-15fps as soon as I was underwater. I would have noticed that before and so would have lowenz.

Yeah, apologies about that, I was busy sorting out some of the server stuff, so I didn't check the General section of the forums until after the release. Regarding the Quicksave/Quickload, are you referring to these issues:

http://bugs.thedarkmod.com/view.php?id=3649

http://bugs.thedarkmod.com/view.php?id=3632

 

If so, we're still working on it.

Also, we'd like to know if the performance issue is general or if it is just affecting you

Neither of those. TDM doesn't crash.

The first time I choose quicksave, I get the normal 'game saved' message with the appropriate barely-noticeable pause during that save. Some time later, after another quicksave, I choose to quickload and there is no response...like I never pressed the button.

I check the console and have:

Warning: idSaveGame::WriteObject -WriteObject FindIndex failed

Warning: Couldn't open savegame file savegames/Quicksave.save

 

I can still play the game, but quicksave/load no longer functions.

Could you please run TDM with '+set fs_debug 1', try the quicksave/quickload and then go to the console and type "path" (at least I think it's that). Then 'condump' the log and put it on pastie.org for me? Thanks.

      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      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported.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 ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?
