Unable to install 2.10 from TDM updater and the new installer v1.10 fails during install

I've tried to update to 2.10 from 2.09 with the TDM updater v0.76 but fails to update saying my installation is up to date, in the log entries 'Didn't find executable name tdm_update.exe in download queue.'

I downloaded the new installer v1.10 to install a new copy and fails every time at the same place while trying to install tdm_textures_nature01.pk4 with the error message 'missing end chunk...' etc.

Also the link to install TDM using  Freyk’s Unofficial Installer  doesn't seem to be working

Any help or workaround most appreciated. Thanks.

Perhaps try a different mirror; it looks like the copy on frydrych might be temporarily bugged.

 I managed to get it installed. I dropped the new installer into the old game folder again and this time it updated and installed everything. All good. Thanks.

That's because it can reuse existing pk4 data instead of downloading them.

It is not clear whether clean install of 2.10 works or not...
I guess I should try it myself, but I got ill today 😥

      Hey @nbohr1morehow come the zombies in The Dark Mod don't have a "resurrection" mechanic to it, similar to how Thief has it?
      They're quite a weak creature as of right now, it's merely a walking corpse that slashes you, making attacking them to kill them an actual strategy.
      Would be better if they had some cool mechanism to it that truly makes them a danger, such as the resurrection idea itself.

      Query: when was the last time a zombie in a video game was unnerving or scary to you? I'm chipping away at my anniversary submission and I've been trying to gather opinions on the subject. I'm perfectly capable of lighting them well, changing their sfx, and creating effective ambience, but I'm worried that zombies at their core are just too overdone to be an effective payoff to the tension I'm creating.

      Has anyone had any luck with textures from Polyhaven? Their OpenEXR normal maps seem too washed out and give incorrect shading in the engine.

      I tried to upscale the TDM logo video. First try:

      briefing_video.mp4 You can test it ingame by making a copy of the core tdm_gui.mtr and place it in your-tdm-root/materials/ , then edit line 249 of that file into the location where you placed the new briefing.mp4 file.
      What I did was I extracted all the image files, then used Upscayl to upscale the images using General photo (Real-Esrgan) upscale setting and then turn it back into a video.
      I might have to crop it a bit, the logo looks smaller on screen (or maybe it's actually better this way?). My video editor turned it into a 16:9 video, which I think overal looks better than 1:1 video of original.
