I have an RTX 3060 Ti and I am seeing these purple blocks pop up when 64 bit color is enabled. It seems to happen on/around some sources of water. Switching to 32 Bit color fixes it.

Also, arrows are passing through bodies. I noticed water arrows pass through undead. And gas arrows pass through human guards.

I am running the latest version - 2.12

I too have an RTX 3060 Ti, but don't have these issues.  Maybe share the rest of your configuration and it might make it easier to narrow the issue down?  What OS is it, what's the rest of the hardware config, etc...

Try to disable bloom that will probably make that error go away.

If so, It seems Nvidia is now returning nan's (not a number) in their drivers for the bloom shader like AMD did some time ago. :(

So, besides the arrow passing through bodies problem, there is also an AI problem. I can knock a guard out with a gas arrow in complete obscurity with no one in sight or hearing distance and other guards will come running to that exact location.

I took your advice, nbohr1more, and deleted all the .PK4 files, and I deleted the game exe. I ran the updater and started the game. Arrows still pass right through people. Sometimes the arrows hit, but its not even 50/50. They mostly pass through.

Edit: also, the purple block issue appeared again. 64 bit color on, bloom off.

Thanks!

Please open your console ( CTRL + ALT + Tilde ) then invoke:

condump glitch.txt

Then exit the game and gather your Darkmod.cfg and glitch.txt files from your darkmod folder and attach them to a reply.

Please visit TDM's IndieDB site and help promote the mod:

(Yeah, shameless promotion... but traffic is traffic folks...)

Ok, so, I had two different installations on my system. I've been in school since September and I mostly haven't played any games since then. I was trying to fix the wrong installation. My bad. I have since resolved the issue. Thanks for all your assistance.

I will revisit the missions where I saw the purple blocks to see if they reappear, but I have not seen them in the mission I'm playing now, and the arrow issue does appear to be resolved. I have seen AI go on high alert for seemingly no reason, though. Maybe it is just the mission.

      (I just write this down, because it's on my mind)
      I think it's time somebody makes the city hub fm 😉
      Technically I see 2 possible ways.
      1. One is where everything takes place inside one mission and you teleport to different enclosed areas of the map to do subquests.
      2. Another is a campaign style mission. You start inside the cityhub. When you do a subquest, the mission ends, but the next mission you load the specific quest-map. This questmap you load is depended on what subquest you choose to start inside the map. Afterwards you load the 3th mission in the campaign which will be the cityhub map again, but via persistant info, changes some things inside the map (for example, you can't do the same subquest twice) and you have more gold maybe, etc, etc. So if the cityhub has 5 subquest missions that can be played in any order, the total amount of missions in the campaign would be 10, but the amount of map files 6. Because if you start in the cityhub map, after each subquest mission, you return to the cityhub map again, except for the last mission. When you make missions later you can add them to the cityhub again and make it bigger.
      (This seems all possible with changes made in TDM 2.13 , but I'm not 100% sure. It's at least an interesting project to work on)

      I started using Unexpected Keyboard for Android phone.
      It's pretty cool, because it has an actual Ctrl key, which you can use to do cut, copy and paste actions via x, c and v. pretty handy in the forums, to move quoted text around for example.

      Dammit there are too many missions available now. That's what I get for being away for so long. Such a first-world problem.

      The best thing about not mapping more than like every other year is the awesome feeling to see how far TDM has gotten in all appartments. I can just create some parallaxing cobblestones and walk to and fro and just let the jaw drop
