Also, where are screenshots stored, I can't find any I've taken?

 

In a folder called "Screenshots" in the directory that you installed the dark mod :)

Yes that's where I thought it would be but I have no such folder?

I added a 'screenshots' folder and it works, guess it's not there by default or wasn't created?

Thanks.

 

I don't think I ever created the folder myself but I do know that the dark mod has a dedicated screenshot key so perhaps you were pressing print screen instead of the TDM screenshot key? either way, glad that it works!

I got 2 * 5 points for 2 Alert 5's but stats say I was seen for 0m - 0s so why the points :huh:

Also, where are screenshots stored, I can't find any I've taken?

An alert 5 means an AI saw you & went to full alert.

The time means you were seen for under a second, since it rounds to seconds.

 

Edit. Regarding the folder, make sure the top game folder has 'read only' access turned off (or write access turned on, however the checkbox works) in the right-click folder options. It sometimes happens for some reason, and that's one symptom.

What do you see when you turn out the light? I can't tell you but I know that it's mine.

The AI is quite tough considering AI sight and Hearing is only on forgiving as I'm a newb and learning the game, obviously, I'm not as good as I thought at this game :D

 

'Read only' access was turned on :rolleyes:

The AI are tough because without them there is no challenge to the game at all. If you're new to stealth, you might want to put them at their lowest levels.

      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!
