System downtime for updates - Sunday 13 July 2025 ×

I'm finding the right mouse button to be very unpredictable at the moment. Sometimes nothing frobs, sometimes I have to hold to open doors, etc. However, there is one symptom which is very clear: lock picking doesn't work at all, instead I have to hold down Enter. I *think* this is new since updating to 2.07 (and the hot patch for lighting issues).

 

Has anyone else seen anything like this?

Sounds like something new.

 

Did you try to reset config file?

It means: back up your darkmod.cfg, then delete it and start TDM again.

 

Also note that before 2.07, Linux build of TDM intercepted all input for itself, so even Alt-Tabbing was hardly working.

In 2.07, some input goes to the OS (see 4190). For instance, if key bindings overlap with system ones, you may have trouble.

Maybe the same happens to right mouse button. Or maybe you press some key which partly switches to OS, which starts handling clicks.

My apologies. It's definitely my mouse, it's causing trouble elsewhere. Sorry about the noise.

I work in QA at a gaming company. Haha. First question would have been if you had tried another mouse, or if your mouse was wireless. Could be something caught inside the mouse. Never hurts to blow it out with compressed air.

      I posted about it before, but I think the default tdm logo video looks outdated. For a (i.m.o.) better looking version, you can download the pk4 attached to this post and plonk it in your tdm root folder. Every mission that starts with the tdm logo then starts with the better looking one. Try for example mission COS1 Pearls and Swine.

      I finished DOOM - The Dark Ages the other day. It is a decent shooter, but not as great as its predecessors, especially because of the soundtrack.
