As the title says, I have been trying to get TDM 2.0.7 working on two computers with Windows7 32 bit.

Both have older Radeon displays, and the best I can get is a Mission Loading screen that crashes to desktop half-way through.

I have tried every tweak mentioned on this forum, to no avail. I can get TDM 2.0 from 2013 working on both machines.

I know it sounds like an archaic work-around, but if all else fails maybe a small partition solely for TDM running Mac OS, and leave the rest of your space for Windows to do everything else you are used to on your machine?

As my father used to say, "A grenade a day, keeps the enemy at bay!"

or from the other side,
(even smaller) install wine on mac os and run windows programs on it. (pro-tip: use frontend "playonmac")
or you can run windows 7 on virtualbox on mac os, to run tdm. (but that works very slow)
and tdm runs on linux distro's (on a mac) and the solutions above.
For more info, see the tdm wiki article.

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      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported.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