Problem with The Dark Mod Updater


Nico A.

Recommended Posts

I kinda ran into that issue before, but the tdm_update.exe doesn't seem to behave properly: it just downloads a file of size 1.5 MB, then asks to restart and repeats this again. I then did the following (now it works, but I don't know which of these steps were necessary):

 

- I deleated all files in the darkmod directory

- I downloaded a new version of the updater

- When the button asking for a Restart appears, I go to the directory instead and run the file _tdm_update.exe (instead tdm_update.exe)

 

I just thought I let you know about this.

Okay, I'll highjack this thread for a bit as it is connected. After updating to 2.05 without problems, I noticed a lot of new missions because I didn't play TDM for a long time and I really missed a "Select all for download" button after having to select all of them once by one! Also what is the name of the new introduction mission mentioned in the announcement? And please add it to the announcement message too.

P.S.: Just checked the downloadable mission window and there even is space in the GUI below "Select for download>>" to add a "Select all missions>>" option. We wouldn't want people coming to the game from Steam to download all the missions available right now one by one, wouldn't we?

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      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported.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