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.

      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!
